PURPOSE Social isolation is associated with suicidal ideation (SI) and self-harm (SH) among adolescents. However, the association between preference for solitude (PfS), SI, and SH is unknown. The prevalence of adolescents who have both of PfS and social isolation and the risks for SI and SH among them are also unknown. METHODS Information on PfS, social isolation, SI, and SH was collected in ...

BACKGROUND It is notable that sitting height (SH) correlates with blood pressure (BP) in children and adolescents of developed countries. However, little is known about the relationships between SH and SH to height ratio (SH/H) with BP in South African children from middle and upper socio-economic groups. The purpose of this study was to compare SH and SH/H of private school attending children ...

This study examined characteristics associated with mildly injurious (fingernail biting, skin picking, etc.) and more injurious (cutting, burning, etc.) self-harm (SH) in an undergraduate sample (N = 280); 31% reported mildly injurious SH within the past 3 years with no more injurious SH, whereas 20% reported more injurious SH within the past 3 years. SH was not associated with significant gene...

c-Kit tyrosine kinase receptor has been identified as a regulator of bone homeostasis. The c-Kit loss-of-function mutations in WBB6F1/J-Kit(W/W-v) mice result in low bone mass. However, these mice are sterile and it is unclear whether the observed skeletal phenotype is secondary to a sex hormone deficiency. In contrast, C57BL/6J-Kit(W-sh)/(W-sh) (W(sh)/W(sh)) mice, which carry an inversion muta...

In the interstellar medium (ISM), complex organic molecules that contain thiol group ($-$SH) play an important role in polymerization of amino acids. We look for SH-bearing chemically rich solar-type protostar IRAS 16293-2422. After extensive spectral analysis using local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) model, we have detected rotational emission lines trans-isomer monothioformic acid (t-HC(O)S...

Purpose: As part of an ongoing effort to support the equitable delivery cancer care historically underserved communities in New York City (NYC), we examined impact COVID-19 on community outreach organizations working with NCI-comprehensive center Methods: We conducted 16 semi-structured interviews (30–90 minutes; July-September 2020) stakeholders (SH) including patient navigators, advocates, fa...

We present a statistical investigation of the effects interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) on hemispheric asymmetry in auroral currents. Nearly 6 years measurements from Swarm A and C satellites are analyzed. Bootstrap resampling is used to remove difference number samples IMF conditions between local seasons hemispheres. Currents stronger Northern Hemisphere (NH) than Southern (SH) for B NH (B ...

The phosphorylation status of the small hydrophobic (SH) protein of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) was examined in virus-infected Vero cells. The SH protein was isolated from [35S]methionine- and [33P]orthophosphate-labelled RSV-infected cells and analysed by SDS-PAGE. In each case, a protein product of the expected size for the SH protein was observed. Phosphoamino acid analysis and reactiv...

BACKGROUND We investigated an association between baseline heart rate-corrected QT (QTc) interval before severe hypoglycemia (SH) and prolongation of QTc interval during SH in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS Between January 2004 and June 2014, 208 patients with T2DM, who visited the emergency department because of SH and underwent standard 12-lead electrocardiography wi...
