A qualitative study of referring agents’ perceptions of access barriers to inpatient substance abuse treatment centres in the Western Cape
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Background: Despite empirical support for the individual and public health benefits of treating substance use disorders (SUDs) , access to these services is impeded by several barriers. Although many studies on access ...
A detection threshold in the amplitude spectra calculated from Kepler data obtained during K2 mission.
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
We present our analysis of simulated data in order to derive a detection threshold which can
be used in the pre-whitening process of amplitude spectra. In case of ground-based data of
pulsating stars, this threshold is ...
The analysis of indexed astronomical time series – XI. The statistics of oversampled white noise periodograms
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
The distribution of the maxima of periodograms is considered in the case where the time
series is made up of regularly sampled, uncorrelated Gaussians. It is pointed out that if there
is no oversampling, then for large ...
Multicolour time series photometry of four short-period weak-lined T Tauri stars
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
The paper describes continuous photometric monitoring of four pre-main-sequence stars,
probable members of young stellar associations. Measurements, covering at least four nights
per star, were obtained by cycling through ...
Associated risk factors of STIs and multiple sexual relationships among youths in Malawi
(PLoS, 2015)
Having unprotected sex with multiple sexual partners (MSP) is the greatest risk factor for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) among youths. Young people with MSPs are less ...
Multicolour time series photometry of the T Tauri star CVSO 30
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
Five consecutive runs of at least five hours, and two shorter runs, of V(RI)C time series
photometry of CVSO 30 are presented. No evidence could be seen for planetary transits,
previously claimed in the literature for ...
The analysis of indexed astronomical time series – XII. The statistics of oversampled Fourier spectra of noise plus a single sinusoid
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
With few exceptions, theoretical studies of periodogram properties focus on pure noise time
series. This paper considers the case in which the time series consists of noise together with a
single sinusoid, observed at ...
Control of airborne microbes in a poultry setting using Dioxy MP 14
(FACTA-FUNDACIO ARNCO CIENCIA TECNOLOGIA AVICOLAS, 2015)
In this study, Dioxy MP 14, a locally developed form of chlorine dioxide,
was tested in a commercial chicken pen to determine its effectiveness as
an airborne environmental sanitizing agent. The biocide was introduced
via ...
Trends in HIV risk behaviour of incoming first-year students at a South African university: 2007–2012
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2015)
The aim of the research on which this article is based was to understand the behavioural changes of the target student populationover time to ensure that future prevention programmes are more effective in changing behaviour. ...
Correlates of gender characteristics, health and empowerment of women in Ethiopia
(BMC, 2015)
The low status of women prevents them from recognizing and voicing their concerns about health
needs. This study aimed to examine the relationship between gender characteristics, health and empowerment of
women in an ...
