Beyond the average: walking infants take steps longer than their leg length.
Traditionally, infant walking is characterized by small steps, attributed to limited balance control and strength. However, analyses of individual steps revealed that infants occasionally take large steps exceeding their leg length. These large steps provide evidence of advanced balance control and strength.
متن کاملLonger than Average Intervals Containing No Primes
We present two methods for proving that there is a positive proportion of intervals which contain no primes and are longer than the average distance between consecutive primes. The first method is based on an argument of Erdös which uses a sieve upper bound for prime twins to bound the density function for gaps between primes. The second method uses known results about the first three moments f...
متن کامل“When” Does Picture Naming Take Longer Than Word Reading?
Differences between the cognitive processes involved in word reading and picture naming are well established (e.g., visual or lexico-semantic stages). Still, it is commonly thought that retrieval of phonological forms is shared across tasks. We report a test of this second hypothesis based on the time course of electroencephalographic (EEG) neural activity, reasoning that similar EEG patterns m...
متن کاملPreterm infants have significantly longer telomeres than their term born counterparts
There are well-established morbidities associated with preterm birth including respiratory, neurocognitive and developmental disorders. However several others have recently emerged that characterise an 'aged' phenotype in the preterm infant by term-equivalent age. These include hypertension, insulin resistance and altered body fat distribution. Evidence shows that these morbidities persist into...
متن کاملWalking the walk: how kinesin and dynein coordinate their steps.
Molecular motors drive key biological processes such as cell division, intracellular organelle transport, and sperm propulsion and defects in motor function can give rise to various human diseases. Two dimeric microtubule-based motor proteins, kinesin-1 and cytoplasmic dynein can take over one hundred steps without detaching from the track. In this review, we discuss how these processive motors...
