Richards, David A, Hughes-Morley, Adwoa, Hayes, Rachel A, Araya, Ricardo, Barkham, Michael, Bland, John M, ...

Abstract Background Comprising of both organisational and patient level components, collaborative care is a potentially powerful intervention for improving depression treatment in UK primary Care....

April 2006 The asymptotics of factorials, binomial coefficients and Catalan numbers (2008)

David Kessler, Jeremy Schiff

We present a variety of novel asymptotic series for factorials, binomial coefficients and Catalan numbers, all having only even or odd powers. 1.

COMMUNICATIONS in PROBABILITY INCLUSION–EXCLUSION REDUX (2008)

David Kessler, Jeremy Schiff

Inclusion-exclusion principle, close-to-independent events We present a reordered version of the inclusion–exclusion principle, which is useful when computing the probability of a union of events...

No effect of n - 3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (EPA and DHA) supplementation on depressed mood and cognitive function : a randomised controlled trial (2008)

Rogers, Peter, Appleton, Katherine, Kessler, David, Peters, Tim, Gunnell, David, Hayward, Robert, ...

Low dietary intakes of the n-3 long-chain PUFA (LCPUFA) EPA and DHA are thought to be associated with increased risk for a variety of adverse  outcomes, including some psychiatric disorders....

Depressed mood and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid intake from fish: non-linear or confounded association? (2006)

Appleton, Katherine M., Peters, Tim J., Heatherley, Susan V., Hayward, Robert C., McNaughton, Sarah, Rogers, Peter J., ...

There is increasing evidence of an association between low dietary intake of essential n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 EFAs) and depressed mood. This study aimed to evaluate this...

Inclusion-Exclusion Redux (2002)

Kessler, David; Bar-Ilan University; Kessler@dave.ph.biu.ac.il, Schiff, Jeremy; Bar-Ilan University; Schiff@math.biu.ac.il

We present a reordered version of the inclusion-exclusion principle, which is useful when computing the probability of a union of events which are close to independent. The advantages of this...

F (k) n (k) (2002)

David Kessler, Jeremy Schiff

Various generalizations of the Fibonacci numbers have been proposed, studied and ap-plied over the years (see [5] for a brief list). Probably the best known are the k-generalized Fi-bonacci numbers F...

Two State Behavior in a Solvable Model of $\beta$-hairpin folding (1999)

Guo, Chinlin, Levine, Herbert, Kessler, David

Understanding the mechanism of protein secondary structure formation is an essential part of protein-folding puzzle. Here we describe a simple model for the formation of the $\beta$-hairpin,...

Investigation of Cyclodextrin-Enhanced Electrokinetic Soil Remediation. Fate and Transport of Nitroaromatic Contaminants and Cyclodextrin Amendments in Expansive Clays (1998)

Kessler, David, Marsh, Charles P., McCormick, John J., Cropek, Donald M., Deguzman, Angelo R., Robles, Ruben, ...

Nitroaromatic-based compounds can pose a serious threat to ecosystems and human health. These compounds, which have been used in munitions and pesticides, are present in soil and groundwater at...

Distributions of Triplets in Genetic Sequences (1997)

Shi, Yu, Kanter, Ido, Kessler, David

Distributions of triplets in some genetic sequences are examined and found to be well described by a 2-parameter Markov process with a sparse transition matrix. The variances of all the relevant...

The organization of the grain trade in the early Roman Empire

DAVID KESSLER, PETER TEMIN

Rome was an exceedingly large city at the start of the Roman Empire, and it required massive grain imports to feed its population. We argue that Roman merchants organized these imports and that they...

The Fixation Probability of Rare Mutators in Finite Asexual Populations

Wylie, C. Scott, Ghim, Cheol-Min, Kessler, David, Levine, Herbert

A mutator is an allele that increases the mutation rate throughout the genome by disrupting some aspect of DNA replication or repair. Mutators that increase the mutation rate by the order of 100-fold...
