(AOSIS, 2015)In spite of the fact that a great variety of mystical and semi-mystical spiritualties are again popular today, for many people past and present mysticism is a mystery, something misty and vague. According to others, ... -
Mistieke klankwêrelde in Stefans Grové se musiek met spesifieke verwysing na sy Towermusiek vir klavier
(Suid-Afrikaanse Akademie vir Wetenskap en Kuns, 2013)Stefans Grové’s compositional ideas often come to him in dreams. This article explores the processes inherent in the creation, re-creation by the performer, and appreciation of Grové’s unique soundscapes, where the ... -
Mitigating amphibian chytridiomycoses in nature
(The Royal Society, 2016)Amphibians across the planet face the threat of population decline and extirpation caused by the disease chytridiomycosis. Despite consensus that the fungal pathogens responsible for the disease are conservation issues, ... -
Mitigating construction risk in the design and planning of high-voltage transmission lines
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2015)The Eskom transmission network in South Africa is rapidly expanding with the addition of new power stations such as Medupi, Kusile and multiple independent power producers. The changing grid code requirements to ensure ... -
Mitigating risks associated with Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) of hazardous energy in Nigeria : a tracker approach
(North-West University, 2012)The main objective of the study was to determine the risk(s) associated with lockout/tagout of hazardous energy and propose a new LOTO procedure which tracks the implementation of LOTO to mitigate against identified risks ... -
Mitigating the effects of recurrent drought : the case of Setlagole community, Ratlou Municipality (North West Province)
(2014)Disasters have increased in frequency and their impact has been intensely felt on the continent. This frequently results in damage to the resources and infrastructure on which humans rely on for survival and quality of ... -
Mitigating the socio-economic consequences of mine closure
(SAIMM, 2018)An analysis of trends in the mining industry in South Africa reveals a general lack of understanding among mining companies of the significant socio-economic consequences that mine closure may have on affected communities. ... -
Mitigation of anthropogenic risk factors associated with low-cost residential development on dolomite
(North-West University (South Africa), 2021)The increase in growth of the South African population has for some time resulted in a progressive occupation of karst terrains. In recent case studies, evidence points to failures of precautionary measures due to gaps in ... -
Mitigation of operational risk in South African distribution networks with integrated renewable generation
(North-West University (South Africa), 2019)Under the Department of Energy's (DoE) renewable energy independent power producer procurement program (REIPPPP), utility scale renewable energy projects were connected to sub-transmission networks. To date 4138 MW of ... -
Mitigation of project risk through communication training : a serious games proposal
(North-West University, 2014)Complex projects often fail even when formal project management systems are in place. Project management processes and methodologies are well defined and described in academic and business literature. There is however less ... -
Mitigation strategies for hydrogen safety in the confined environment : CFD modelling and validation
(North-West University (South Africa)., 2022)This research is based on experimental evaluation and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling validation. Full-scale tests to investigate unintended hydrogen release were conducted at the HySA Mining Platform Test ... -
Mitochondria are critical for BDNF-mediated synaptic and vascular plasticity of hippocampus following repeated electroconvulsive seizures
(Oxford Univ Press, 2018)Background Electroconvulsive therapy is a fast-acting and efficient treatment of depression used in the clinic. The underlying mechanism of its therapeutic effect is still unclear. However, recovery of synaptic connections ... -
Mitochondrial abnormality associates with type-specific neuronal loss and cell morphology changes in the pedunculopontine nucleus in Parkinson disease
(Elsevier, 2013)Cholinergic neuronal loss in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) associates with abnormal functions, including certain motor and nonmotor symptoms. This realization has led to low-frequency stimulation of the PPN for treating ... -
Mitochondrial complex activity in permeabilised cells of chronic fatigue syndrome patients using two cell types
(Tomas, 2019)Abnormalities in mitochondrial function have previously been shown in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) patients, implying that mitochondrial dysfunction may contribute to the pathogenesis of disease. This study builds on ... -
Mitochondrial disorders in the South African context : a clinical and biochemical approach
(North-West University (South Africa), 2011)In the past, patients with suspected mitochondrial disorders (MDs) were identified only phenotypically in South Africa. However, the specific population-related characteristics were unknown and not documented. Up to as ... -
Mitochondrial DNA changes in pedunculopontine cholinergic neurons in Parkinson disease
(Wiley, 2017)In Parkinson disease (PD), mitochondrial dysfunction associates with nigral dopaminergic neuronal loss. Cholinergic neuronal loss co-occurs, particularly within a brainstem structure, the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN). ... -
Mitochondrial DNA consensus sequence for the Tswana population of South Africa
(North-West University, 2012)Evolutionary studies are critical in eliciting the fundamental phylogeny within and among populations of living organisms. Genetic diversity is displayed in human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) as haplogroups that consist of ...
