Test to destruction gives clue to construction

construction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality

like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...

Leukocyturia, another clue to inflammation in acute coronary syndrome

Introduction: Cronary artery disease is the main cause of mortality in developed countries. Classic risk factors have not been able to explain epidemiologic variants in this disease, hence other risk factors including systemic infections are under survey. This study was designed to evaluate the possible role of local and systemic infections in producing acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: ...

Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis: A Diagnostic Clue to Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Reductive desulfurization of allylic thiols by HS-/H2S in water gives clue to chemical reactions widespread in natural environments.

The reduction of allylic thiols to alkenes by hydrogen sulfide in aqueous solutions, a novel reaction that may explain reduction processes widely occurring in natural environments, has been discovered. Its mechanism has been studied and suggested to follow an S(RN)1-like pathway involving radical intermediates undergoing 1,4 hydrogen shifts. [reaction: see text]

Leaves clue to lemur peril

Lemurs are of great evolutionary and ecological interest. But for at least one species, in their Madagascan homeland and possibly as a result of climate change, drought poses a serious threat. In a research project that has been running for nearly 20 years, Patricia Wright from the Stony Brook University in the state of New York and her coworkers have been studying the behaviour of Madagascar's...
