Gender-biased vessel growth
A man's male hormones may ward off heart damage by helping vessels around the heart regenerate, suggest Sieveking and colleagues. Although studies have shown that estrogen helps regenerate blood vessels, both in the uterus after menstruation and around the heart after wear and tear, little is known about whether or not men make up for a lack of the female hormone. Some researchers have theorize...
متن کاملGender-Biased Adaptations in Educational Adaptive Hypermedia
Studies (for instance, [1, 2]) show that there is a statistically relevant gender difference in computer usage. In this paper we address the question of what are the causes of this problem and how it can be relieved by adaptive means. In trying to design systems that are sensitive to individual differences there is a dilemma – how can you make the system behave in a way appropriate for each ind...
متن کاملGender-Biased Expectations of Altruism in Adolescents
Research suggests that women, but not men, manifest gender-biased expectations of altruism: while women expect other women to be more altruistic, men expect women to be as generous as men. Do adolescents expect women and men to behave differently regarding altruism? I analyse adolescents’ gender beliefs about altruism using a modified Dictator Game. Results indicate that adolescents believe tha...
متن کاملGrowth of exchange-biased MnPdÕFe bilayers
The growth of exchange-biased MnPd/Fe bilayers has been investigated using x-ray diffraction. The bilayers were deposited on MgO(001) substrates in an ultrahigh-vacuum ion-beam sputter system. It was found that the orientation of the MnPd unit cell and the crystalline quality could be controlled as a function of the deposition temperature. Twinned a-axis oriented MnPd films are obtained below 1...
متن کاملThe Regulation of Blood Vessel Growth
The vascular system forms through a combination of vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. In vasculogenesis, vessels form de novo via the assembly of endotheial precursors called angioblasts, whereas in angiogenesis new vessels arise by migration and proliferation of endothelial cells from preexisting vessels. Although the two processes are distinct in some respects, recent evidence suggests that the...
