This study examined how supine-to-stand (STS) performance is related to process and product assessment of motor competence (MC) in children. Ninety-one children aged 5–9 years were assessed for process and product MC (10 m running speed and standing long jump) as well as process and product measures of STS. Tertiles were created for STS process and STS product scores to create 3 groups reflecti...

Steroid sulfatase (STS) is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum and catalyzes desulfation of 3beta-hydroxysteroid sulfates. X-linked ichthyosis (XLI) is an inherited skin disorder caused by deficiency of STS enzyme activity. We previously reported a case in which XLI with a one-base change in the STS gene and variation in amino acid Q560P developed. In this study, we performed molecular analy...

The paper presents useful invariants of resolutions of cyclic STS(v) with v ≤ 39, namely of all resolutions of cyclic STS(15), STS(21) and STS(27), of the resolutions with nontrivial automorphisms of cyclic STS(33) and of resolutions with automorphisms of order 13 of cyclic STS(39). 2010 MSC: 05B07, 05E18

The throughput enhancement of Space-Time Spreading (STS)-based Multicarrier Direct Sequence Code Division Multiple Access (MC DS-CDMA) system is investigated in this paper. Variable Spreading Factor (VSF) is utilized to improve the data throughput of the system. In this contribution, an analytical approach is proposed to compute a new expression for the Bit Error Rate (BER) performance of t...

PURPOSE Unlike carcinomas, soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) rarely exhibit lymphatic spread. Consequently, we examined expression and function of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C and STS-associated lymphatic vessel density (LVD) components of this process. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN VEGF-C and VEGF-A mRNA and VEGF-C protein expression were evaluated in STS, STS cell lines, and breast cancers (re...

Steroid sulfatase (STS) catalyzes the hydrolysis of estrone sulfate and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) to their unconjugated biologically active forms. Although STS is considered a therapeutic target for estrogen-dependent diseases, the cellular functions of STS remain unclear. We found that STS induces Wnt/β-catenin s Delete ignaling in PC-3 and HeLa cells. STS increases levels of β-ca...

Physiological benefits of skin to skin care (STS) to newborns are known but there is scarcity of data on changes in physiological parameters like pulse rate, respiratory rate, SPO2 and blood pressure in mothers during STS. We hypothesize that STS is beneficial to mothers with respect to these parameters. Objective of this study was to assess the changes of these parameters in mothers while prov...
