This brief diagnostic note identifies a cognitive pathology, "Brain Overclaim Syndrome [BOS]," that often afflicts those inflamed by the fascinating new discoveries in the neurosciences. It begins by suggesting how one should think about the relation of neuroscience (or any other material explanation of human behavior) to criminal responsibility, distinguishing between internal and external cri...

The objective of this study was to assess the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) developed at the calpastatin (CAST) and -calpain (CAPN1) genes with meat tenderness and palatability traits in populations with diverse genetic backgrounds. Three populations were used in the study. One population consisted of Bos taurus that included crossbred animals derived from Hereford, Angus...

Introduction. Buschke-Ollendorf syndrome (BOS) is an uncommon syndrome characterized by osteopoikilosis and other bone abnormalities, accompanied by skin lesions, most frequently connective tissue nevi. BOS is caused by mutations in the LEMD3 gene, which encodes the inner nuclear membrane protein Man1. We describe a unique case of osteopoikilosis associated with late-onset localized scleroderma...

To evaluate efficacy and safety of budesonide oral suspension (BOS) in pediatric patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). We used pooled data from two 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials BOS 2.0 mg b.i.d. (phase 2 [MPI 101-06/NCT01642212] phase 3 [ORBIT1/SHP621-301/NCT02605837]) aged 11–17 years EoE dysphagia. Peak eosinophil counts, the Dysphagia Symptom Questionn...

BACKGROUND Lung transplantation (LTx) is a therapy for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) end-stage lung disease. Pseudomonal airway colonization (PAC) is common in CF. OBJECTIVES We investigated the influence of post-transplant sinus surgery and daily nasal douching on PAC after LTx and the influence of PAC on survival and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). METHODS CF patients transp...

The barn owl (BO) and the collared scops owl (CSO) are common nocturnal raptors throughout Thailand. Blood samples from 23 adult BOs and 14 CSOs were collected and processed for complete blood cell counts and parasite morphological examinations. Two Haemoproteus-positive samples were processed for ultrastructural observation. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis for a partial cytochrome b g...

Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is the major limitation to survival after lung transplantation. Acute rejection, its main risk factor, is characterized by perivascular/bronchiolar leukocyte infiltration. BOS is characterized by persistent peribronchiolar leukocyte recruitment leading to airway fibrosis and obliteration. The specific mechanism(s) by which these leukocytes are recruited a...

The Biology of Spermatozoa (BoS) meetings have run on a biannual basis since the early 1990s. They are dedicated to the fascinating research topic of sperm and their complicated route to fertilization. The BoS meetings focus on sperm, but they also explore additional supporting factors important in fertilization, such as those present in seminal and ovarian fluid, as well as the genomic bases o...

Populasi seluruh SD SMP di Kota Prabumulih dengan sampel Kepala Sekolah, Wakil Bendahara BOS, Operator Guru, Orang Tua. sebanyak 140 populasi digunakan pada data kuesioner yang dian...

At CCS 2003, a new CRT-RSA algorithm was presented in [BOS03], which was claimed to be secure against fault attacks for various fault models. At CCS 2004, David Wagner presented an attack on the proposed scheme, claiming that the so-called BOS scheme was insecure for all presented fault models [Wag04]. However, the attack itself contains a flaw which shows that although the BOS scheme is broken...
