Vitamin C Can Alter Lead-Induced Passive Avoidance Learning Impairment in Rats

Introduction: Lead (Pb) is a neurotoxin that its different effects on the central nervous system are well-known. Previous studies have reported the potent effects of vitamin C on memory.The present study was undertaken to evaluate the protective effects of vitamin C against leadinduced amnesia. Methods: Male Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: the control (saline), negative contr...

Considerations on the UK Re-Arrest Hazard Data Analysis: How Model Selection can alter Conclusions for Policy Development

At time of writing, the policy of DNA profile retention for Constabularies within England and Wales is determined by the Association of Chief Police Officer’s (ACPO) 2006 Retention Guidelines for Nominal Records on the Police National Computer (PNC), which was developed following the passing of the Criminal and Police Act 2001 and the Criminal Justice Act 2003. The former of these legislations ...

Interactions between assembly order and temperature can alter both short- and long-term community composition

Both the order in which species arrive in a community, and environmental conditions, such as temperature, are known to affect community structure. Little is known, however, about the potential for, and occurrence of, interactions between assembly history and the environment. Of particular, interest may be the interaction between temperature and community assembly dynamics, especially in the lig...

Can sigma models describe finite temperature chiral transitions?

Large-N expansions and computer simulations indicate that the universality class of the finite temperature chiral symmetry restoration transition in the 3D Gross-Neveu model is mean field theory. This is a counterexample to the standard 'sigma model' scenario which predicts the 2D Ising model universality class. We trace the breakdown of the standard scenario (dimensional reduction and universa...
