To test this on real nickel, we pressed a microscopic pyramid into the surface and mapped the electrochemical response around the dent with scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM), a droplet probe that records a voltammogram at each of 1,640 points. The dent appeared 3–15 times more active than flat nickel. However, the charging current showed that the droplet wetted 6–11 times more surface there, and per unit of wetted area the dent was not measurably more active. The method works in alkaline electrolyte, but wetting must be controlled first.

However, the extent and distribution of these disparities remain unclear. Objective: To chart the current evidence on racial and ethnic disparities across the diagnostic pathway for individuals with endometriosis and ascertain gaps in the current literature. Methods: A scoping review was conducted under the influence of the Joanna Briggs Institute methodological guidance. The Population, Concept and Context framework was used to develop the eligibility criteria. Studies examining racial or ethnic differences in endometriosis diagnosis, specialist referral or diagnostic investigation were included. Data were obtained on study characteristics, populations, racial and ethnic groups, healthcare settings and stages of the diagnostic pathway. Results: Three studies met the inclusion criteria, comprising one systematic review and meta-analysis and two retrospective cohort studies. All studies were conducted in the United States. Racial and ethnic differences were identified at multiple stages of the diagnostic pathway. Black women had lower odds of receiving a self-reported or surgically confirmed diagnosis compared with White women, while Black and Asian adolescents were less likely to undergo diagnostic laparoscopy. White women also had higher referral rates to pelvic pain specialists than Black, Asian and Hispanic women. However, substantial variation existed between studies in population characteristics, definitions of race and ethnicity, and stages of the diagnostic pathway examined. Conclusion: The existing evidence suggests that racial and ethnic disparities could occur at multiple stages of the endometriosis diagnostic pathway. Yet, the limited number of studies and their focus on US healthcare settings restrict the generalisability of these findings. Further research is needed, particularly within the UK and internationally, to determine whether similar disparities exist and to investigate the factors underlying these differences.

This dissertation argues that two causes operate in sequence rather than in competition. The transformation of the 1990s left a region that converged on western income levels until roughly 2019, then stopped, and that remains owned, headquartered, and administered from elsewhere. Forty-five years of separation determined the political form of grievance, producing a population that’s far more secular, ethnically homogeneous, and less attached to the churches, unions, and organizations that absorb similar grievances in the West. Using state-level and constituency-level data from the 2025 Bundestagswahl alongside aggregate series from 1980, the dissertation shows that district income strongly predicts AfD support in the east (r = −0.80, R2 = 0.64, n = 60) and only weakly in the west, while it barely predicts the combined Die Linke and BSW vote anywhere (r = −0.28 at state level). Two cultural correlations that appear to support a simple cultural thesis are shown to be more complex: irreligion reverses sign between subsamples, and migrant share cannot be cleanly separated from income. The conclusion is that authoritarian-leaning parties aren’t a single phenomenon, and that the AfD vote, in particular, tracks the accumulated economic position of a place rather than its current labour market.

The primary aim was to estimate the effect of closed-loop control on 13-week HbA1c and investigate the robustness of this estimate to covariate adjustment, missing-data handling and Bayesian modelling. The analysis began with a complete-case comparison, followed by adjusted regression models, different frequentist methods of imputation and Bayesian approaches. The results consistently favoured closed-loop control over standard care, with adjusted treatment-effect estimates ranging from approximately 0.36 to 0.44 percentage points across the frequentist analyses. The Bayesian results were broadly consistent with these findings. A further exploratory aim was to model 26-week HbA1c outcomes during the trial's extension period using Bayesian longitudinal models. However, these results were associated with greater uncertainty, particularly because participants originally assigned to standard care switched to closed-loop treatment after 13 weeks. Overall, the findings provide reasonably consistent evidence that closed-loop control reduced 13-week HbA1c compared with standard care, while conclusions about the 26-week treatment effect remain more uncertain.

Identifying stable structures means the use of a large number of geometry optimisations, making direct screening with density functional theory computationally expensive. In this project, 125 AIRSS-generated candidates for each cluster size from B₁ to B₂₀₀ were independently optimised using the 7NET, MACE and PET-MAD machine-learning interatomic potentials, giving 75,000 optimisation attempts. The lowest-energy converged structure from each model and cluster size was selected, producing 600 structures for analysis. PET-MAD achieved the highest overall convergence at 99.83%, followed by 7NET at 99.44% and MACE at 96.92%. 7NET generally produced the most compact, highly coordinated structures, while PET-MAD gave the closest qualitative comparison with an independent VASP-DFT B₅₃ reference. These results show that MLIPs can efficiently screen boron nanoclusters, although their predictions remain model-dependent and require matched DFT calculations for rigorous validation.

However, to understand the story of the war is also to understand key characters historically associated with it so I will briefly outline our main cast here. William Randolph Hearst, a newspaper magnate who cried so loud for the war that the sheepish ears of Washington had no choice but to listen, even if they were both fervently crying of a Spanish wolf. In Washington, William McKinley, the sitting President had inherited a tense foreign climate: the Spanish Wolf had been prowling around Cuba since 1895. Intensified Spanish intervention in its Cuban colony not only undermined the newly incumbent President but also a historic doctrine maintained since the Presidency of fifth U.S. President, a Founding Father, James Monroe. The 1823 Monroe Doctrine inscribed a new American promise to protect independent surrounding Southern American countries from European colonisation. So, how did President McKinley square this foundational doctrine of diplomacy with the domestic pressures calling for not only American interventionism but then also for expansionism?

Centring on the industrious second Marquess, this study asks not simply how the noblemen exercised his aristocratic privileges, but also how they understood and presented their authority in the burgeoning town. Celebrated as the ‘Creator of Cardiff’ by his contemporaries, existing historiography has steadfastly attributed this epithet to the second Marquess and analysed the town’s truly unparalleled economic development. This has left the methods of how the aristocrat exercised his authority over his Glamorgan estate with comparatively little scholarly attention. Thwarting the election of his rivals, manipulating tenancy agreements, and casting himself as both father to his poorer tenants and patron of the Welsh language, the Marquess held his Glamorgan estate in his absolute power. Drawing on borough records, newspaper articles, and private correspondence, this study argues that Bute continued to assert and re-assert his authority to such an extent that neither the Reform Act in 1832 nor the Municipal Corporations Act in 1835 could interrupt his lordship over Cardiff with any real significance. Yet this ability to manipulate urban governance also exposes the archaic structure of the Cardiff Corporation, which left the political body arthritic, and this paper advances that this institutional weakness permitted the borough to become a Scottish thraldom.
