Obesity is associated with increased seminal insulin and leptin alongside reduced fertility parameters in a controlled male cohort
(BioMed Central, 2014)
Obesity appears to be associated with male reproductive dysfunction and infertility, although this has been inconsistent and inconclusive. Insulin and leptin are known mediators and modulators of the hypothalamus-pituitary-testes ...
The impact of male overweight on semen quality and outcome of assisted reproduction
(Medknow Publications, 2014)
The impact of obesity on male reproductive health remains a
contested topic as evidence is inconclusive and inconsistent. Even
more debatable is the effect of male obesity in assisted reproduction.
In the manuscript, ...
Beyond the jellyfish joyride and global oscillations: advancing jellyfish research
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
There has been debate in the literature recently about increases in jellyfish populations in response to anthropogenic change, and this has attracted widespread media interest. Despite an international collaborative ...
Situation-aware routing for wireless mesh networks with mobile nodes
(IIMC International Information Management Corporation, 2012)
This paper describes a situation-aware algorithm based on the current situation of a mesh network with mobile nodes that improves quality of service. After running laboratory performance tests, we concluded that a ...
Bis(ferrocenylimine)palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes: synthesis, molecular structures and evaluation as antitumor agents
(Elsevier, 2012)
Compounds (ferrocenyl-2-furylmethyl)imine (L1), (ferrocenyl-2-thiophenemethyl)imine (L2) and (ferrocenyl-2-thiopheneethyl)imine (L3) were synthesized by condensation reactions and obtained in very good yields. Reactions ...
New phenylene bridged binuclear bis (imino-quinolyl) palladium(II) complexes: synthesis, characterization and Heck reactions
(Elsevier, 2012)
Two new phenylene bridged binuclear bis(imino-quinolyl) palladium (II) complexes were prepared from the reaction of the ligand 1,4-bis(imino-quinolyl)benzene, L1 with either Pd(cod)Cl2 or Pd(cod)ClMe. The molecular structure ...
Experiences, challenges and lessons from rolling out a rural WiFi mesh network
(ACM, 2013)
The DEV community knows that technology interventions involve consideration of social and environmental factors as much as technical ones. This is particularly true for the introduction of communications infrastructure in ...
Dichlorido-[(2-diphenylphosphino-benzylidene)-2-methylphenylen-amine]palladium( II) acetonitrile monosolvate
(International Union of Crystallography, 2013)
The title imino–phosphine compound, [PdCl2(C26H22NP)] -
CH3CN, was prepared by reaction of N-[2-(diphenylphosphanyl)
benzylidene]-2-methylaniline with dichlorido(cycloocta-
1,5-diene)palladium(II) in dry CH2Cl2. The ...
Dichlorido-[2-(2,6-diethylphenyl)iminomethylquinoline-N,N’]palladium(II) acetonitrile monosolvate
(International Union of Crystallography, 2012)
The title complex, [PdCl2(C20H20N2)] CH3CN, was synthesized
by the reaction of 2-[(2,6-diethylphenyl)iminomethyl]quinoline
with dichlorido(cycloocta-1,5-diene)palladium(II) in dry
CH2Cl2. The PdII ion is coordinated by ...
Predicting gamma-ray burster redshifts from their prompt emission properties
(Oxford University Press, 2010)
This paper presents a study of the relation between gamma-ray burster redshift and several
of its prompt emission properties (spectral lag, light curve variability, peak energy, rise time
and the peak bolometric flux ...
