متن کاملRapid progression of HIV infection in infancy.
Transmission of HIV from mother to child can occur in utero, during labor or after delivery via breast feeding. Data on the fate of babies born with HIV in India are scarce. We present details of 25 infants with perinatally acquired HIV infection (virologically confirmed) to highlight the observed high rate of morbidity and mortality within the first 18 months of life. Our findings of rapid dis...
متن کاملConditionally Risky Behavior vs Expected Value Maximization in Evolutionary Games
Inspired by much empirical evidence of human decisionmaking under risk that does not coincide with expected value maximization, much effort has been invested into the development of descriptive theories of human decision-making involving risk (e.g. Prospect Theory, Regret Theory, SP/A Theory). An open question is how behavior corresponding to these descriptive models could have been learned or ...
متن کاملRisky visuomotor choices during rapid reaching in childhood
Many everyday actions are implicit gambles because imprecisions in our visuomotor systems place probabilities on our success or failure. Choosing optimal action strategies involves weighting the costs and gains of potential outcomes by their corresponding probabilities, and requires stable representations of one's own imprecisions. How this ability is acquired during development in childhood wh...
متن کاملEarlier Mother's Age at Menarche Predicts Rapid Infancy Growth and Childhood Obesity
BACKGROUND Early menarche tends to be preceded by rapid infancy weight gain and is associated with increased childhood and adult obesity risk. As age at menarche is a heritable trait, we hypothesised that age at menarche in the mother may in turn predict her children's early growth and obesity risk. METHODS AND FINDINGS We tested associations between mother's age at menarche, mother's adult b...
