A general circulation model of the Martian Atmosphere is coupled with a 3-dimensional polythermal ice-sheet model of the polar ice caps. With this combination a series of experiments is carried out to investigate the impact of long-term obliquity change on the Martian north polar ice cap (NPC). The behaviour of the NPC is tested under obliquities of y 1⁄4 15 , 25 and 35 . With increasing obliqu...

The Center for Advanced Power Systems (CAPS) at Florida State University (FSU) was recently established to pursue research and education in power engineering. Development and demonstration of superconducting technologies is one of the cornerstones of the CAPS program. Important aspects of the program are the test of superconducting equipment at power levels up to 5 MW, and the creation of a rec...

We report follow-up data evaluating the long-term outcomes for the first completed trial of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA)-assisted psychotherapy for chronic, treatment-resistant post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (Mithoefer et al., 2011). All of the 19 subjects who received MDMA-assisted treatment in the original trial participated in the long-term follow-up (LTFU), with 16 out of...

background: this study was designed to compare the clinical performance of composite, strip crowns, biological restoration, and composite with stainless steel band when used for the coronal build-up of anterior teeth. materials and methods: a total of 20 patients aged 3-6 years presenting with mutilated primary anterior teeth due to caries or trauma were selected for the study using randomized ...

Objective: To examine the treatment outcome of an intensive trauma-focused program for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in older and younger adults. Methods: A non-randomized study was conducted with 62 consecutively admitted PTSD patients (60–78 years) (19–58 years), matched on gender availability follow-up data. Patients participated eight-day consisting eye movement desensitization repr...

BACKGROUND Pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) contributes to impairments in functioning in everyday settings. Evidence suggests that online family problem-solving therapy (FPST) may be effective in reducing adolescent behavioral morbidity. This article examines the efficacy of Counselor-Assisted Problem Solving (CAPS), a form of online FPST in improving long-term functional outcomes of adol...
