We compared single-cell activities in perirhinal cortex (PRh) as well as adjacent visual cortex (area TE) across two tasks. One task required the monkey to identify any stimulus repetition within a sequence of object stimuli. In the other task, the same stimuli were presented, but the monkey didn't have to remember them. PRh responses during the object-memory task were elevated relative to thos...

In the past, relations of diffusive resistance to stomatal geometry have concerned circular pores or pores that are replaced by equivalent circles of the same area. We calculated the resistance for general shapes that include the realistic slit. The resistance comprises two terms. The first is an outer resistance that depends only on ventilation and leaf geometry and is independent of stomata. ...

BACKGROUND Health care databases provide a widely used source of data for health care research, but their accuracy remains uncertain. We analyzed data from the 1985 National DRG Validation Study, which carefully reabstracted and reassigned ICD-9-CM diagnosis and procedure codes from a national sample of 7050 medical records, to determine whether coding accuracy had improved since the Institute ...

BACKGROUND The toxicity of doxorubicin, leading to an irreversible heart failure, limits its use as chemotherapeutic agent. The beneficial effects of early administration of β-blocker were reported in patients with heart failure due to doxorubicin, suggesting an important role of β-adrenoceptors (β-ARs). This study aimed to identify a putative target (β-AR and/or its effectors) at the early pha...

Abstract Objective Evaluate the incidence and outcome of new enhancing findings on breast MRI after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). Methods This IRB-approved retrospective review included women with cancer undergoing to evaluate NAC response at our institution from January 1, 1998 March 3, 2021. Post-NAC MRIs given BI-RADS 4 or 5 were identified. Patients excluded if they lacked pretreatment in...

26 We aimed to determine if chronic endurance exercise habits affected redox status and 27 paracrine function of CD34+ and CD34-/CD31+ circulating angiogenic cells (CACs). Subjects 28 were healthy, nonsmoking, men and women aged 18-35 yrs and categorized by chronic physical 29 activity habits. Blood was drawn from each subject for isolation and culture of CD34+ and 30 CD34-/CD31+ CACs. No diffe...

Multiple linear regression equations were developed for predicting the percentage of fat content of beef and pork. The predictor variables were bioelectrical resistance, temperature, and weight of product. Equations were developed for trim and product ground through a .95- or a .32-cm plate. The trim, .95-cm, and .32-cm grinds had 64, 108, and 96 observations, respectively, for beef product and...

The degree of deacetylation and molecular weight of carboxymethyl-chitin (CM) were manipulated using 10% (w/v) NaOH aqueous solution at 25 ̊C and 5 M HCl aqueous solution at 40 ̊C, respectively. The resultant CMs were characterized by 1 H-NMR spectroscopy and size exclusion chromatography/multi-angle light scattering. The degree of deacetylation of 7 – 35% (mol/mol) and molecular weight of 43,000...
