BACKGROUND Traumatic exposure may modulate the expression of impulsive behavioral dispositions and change the implementation of emotion regulation strategies associated with depressive mood. Past studies resulted in only limited comprehension of these relationships, especially because they failed to consider impulsivity as a multifactorial construct. OBJECTIVE Based on Whiteside and Lynam's m...

The construct of impulsivity is implicated in a wide variety of psychopathology. However, the heterogeneous factors or subcomponents that differentially predict outcomes are still in the process of being parsed. The present review and meta-analysis focuses on the psychopathological correlates of the Negative Urgency, (lack of) Premeditation, (lack of) perseverance, Sensation Seeking, and Positi...

The development of robust object-oriented classification methods suitable for medium to high resolution satellite imagery provides a valid alternative to ‘traditional’ pixel-based methods. This paper compares the results of an object-oriented classification to a supervised pixel-based classification for mapping land cover in the tropical north of the Northern Territory. The object-oriented appr...

Cell death has been reported in the CNS in models of neuropathic pain (Sugimoto et al., 1990; Whiteside and Munglani, 2001; Scholz et al., 2005; Fuccio et al., 2009). In our present study, we examined the effects of spinal nerve ligation (SNL) on the number of neurons in the rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM), a brainstem region involved in modulation of nociception. In rats receiving SNL, we f...

Whiteside, Roberta E. (Boston University School of Medicine, Boston, Mass.), and Edgar E. Baker. Interaction of Vi antigen with proteins. J. Bacteriol. 92:1597-1603. 1966.-Purified Vi antigen (Vi) mixed in equal amounts with bovine serum albumin (BSA) or human gamma globulin (HGG) at pH values above 4.7 formed a complex which was not precipitated by trichloroacetic acid or tungstic acid. At pH ...

Protein folding prediction even in its simplest planar HP-model has been shown to be NPcomplete, but it is still a mathematical challenge to find the hidden secret(s) of the nature to resolve the famous Levinthal’s paradox i.e., “How can a protein choose in less than a millisecond an astronomical number of possible configurations?” [1],[2]. In fact several research works have been done to find ...

Purpose: To examine the effectiveness of group cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) based on schema on impulsiveness of substance abusers in Karaj. Materials and Methods: This study was quasi-experimental with pre-test, post-test and control group. The statistical population of this study consisted of male substance abusers who referred to Addiction Treatment Clinics of Karaj in 2010. The sam...

background: most cancer cells become resistant to anti-cancer agents. in the last few years, a new approach for targeted therapy of human cancer has been developed using immunotoxins which comprise both the cell targeting and the cell killing moieties. methods: in the present study, the recombinant shiga toxin a1 subunit fused to human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (a1-gm-csf...

in this syudy a continuous bovine kidney cell line derived from a primary bovine kidney cells was established for the first time in iran. the cells were originating from two-day-old normal male calf of holstein breed. the cell cultures were continuously passaged following complete proliferation of primary cells. the specific properties or characteristics of the cell were defined using cytogene...

Although it is well known that citrate stimulates the growth of acid fast bacteria, the metabolic role of citrate is still obscure in this bacterial group. Washed suspensions of mycobacteria either fail to oxidize citrate or oxidize this substance slowly (Edson, 1951). On the other hand, clarified extracts of mycobacteria oxidize citrate to a-ketoglutarate (Geronimus, Gray, and Birkeland, 1949;...
