OBJECTIVE To compare the perinatal outcome of singleton siblings conceived differently. DESIGN National population-based registry study. SETTING Denmark, from 1994 to 2008. PATIENT(S) Pairs of siblings (13,692 pairs; n = 27,384 children) conceived after IVF, intracytoplasmatic sperm injection (ICSI), frozen embryo replacement (FER), or spontaneous conception subcategorized into five group...

Communication between persons who trust each other differs from that between those who do not. A new conceptualization of trust is offered, drawing from game theory, credibility research, sensitivity/ encounter groups, and studies of generalized expectations of trustworthiness, which makes an important distinction between the cognitive state of iiust and trusting behaviors. Trusting behavior oc...

A picture is worth a thousand words to convey information during daily life communication. Recognizing person’s emotions from facial expressions (FEs) has become prevalent research field in the past few decades. Deep learning (DL) models, mainly deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs), are trending last years perform recognition/classification tasks. Several prior DCNNs have resulted good re...

Iron mobilization responses are induced by low iron supply at transcriptional level. In tomato, the basic helix-loop-helix gene FER is required for induction of iron mobilization. Using molecular-genetic techniques, we analyzed the function of BHLH029, named FRU (FER-like regulator of iron uptake), the Arabidopsis thaliana homolog of the tomato FER gene. The FRU gene was mainly expressed in roo...

The kinase Fer and its spermatogenic meiotic variant, FerT, are coexpressed in normal testes and cancerous tumors, but whether they exert related roles in spermatogenic or malignant cells has not been known. Here, we show that Fer andFerT reside in themitochondria of spermatogenic cells and are harnessed to the reprogrammed mitochondria of colon carcinoma cells. Both kinases bound complex I of ...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of aquatic exercise on pulmonary function of patients with spinal cord injury. [Subjects] The subjects were randomly allocated to an aqua group (n=10) and a land group (n=10). [Methods] Both groups trained for 60 minutes, 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Pulmonary function was assessed by measuring the forced vital capacity (FVC), forc...
