Base rates of impairment on the Temporal Orientation Scale (TOS; Benton et al.,) were reported for normal elderly (n=210) and patients with either Alzheimer’s disease (AD; n=112) or Parkinson’s disease (PD; n=189). The study hypothesis was that disorientation would be more frequent in ADs than in controls and PDs. Base rates for controls, PDs, and ADs were 1.00%, 22.22%, and 78.60% when disorie...

Ribosomal protein L21 (RPL21) is a structural component of the 60S subunit of the eukaryotic ribosome. This protein has an important role in protein synthesis and the occurrence of hereditary diseases. Pig is a common laboratory model, however, to the best of our knowledge, its RPL21 gene has not been cloned to date. In this study, we cloned and identified the full-length sequence of the pig RP...
