In forensic ballistics, gunshot residue (GSR) particles can be detected using screening or presumptive tests which are mainly focused on the chromophoric reaction. Most serve as an initial indication for a investigator at crime scene before instrumental analysis definitive identification. The methods known to convenient, have fast analysis, and minimal preparation. GSR well-known method of dete...

Abstract Background Evidence can be defined as the object’s availability and/or information that indicates whether a belief or proposition is true valid. Gunshot residue (GSR) an important evidence serve many roles in ballistic investigation such shooting distance, type of firearm and ammunition used related to GSR. However, due minimal amount GSR found crime scene, suitable methods technique a...

Serous carcinoma (SC) is the most common subtype of epithelial ovarian carcinoma and is divided into four stages by the Federation of Gynecologists and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging system. Currently, the molecular functions and biological processes of SC at different FIGO stages have not been quantified. Here, we conducted a whole-genome integrative analysis to investigate the functions of SC at d...

Energetic nutrients are oxidized to sustain high intracellular NADPH/NADP+ ratios. NADPH-dependent reduction of thioredoxin-1 (Trx1) disulfide and glutathione disulfide by thioredoxin reductase-1 (TrxR1) and glutathione reductase (Gsr), respectively, fuels antioxidant systems and deoxyribonucleotide synthesis. Mouse livers lacking both TrxR1 and Gsr sustain these essential activities using an N...

It is well established that emotional responses to stimuli presented to one perceptive modality (e.g., visual) are modulated by the concurrent presentation of affective information to another modality (e.g., auditory)-an effect known as the cross-modal bias. However, the affective mechanisms mediating this effect are still not fully understood. It remains unclear what role different dimensions ...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether in countries with high gender empowerment the female-to-male smoking prevalence ratio is also higher. METHODS Bivariate and multiple regression analyses were performed to explore the relation between the United Nations Development Programme's gender empowerment measure (GEM) and the female-to-male smoking prevalence ratio (calculated from the 2008 WHO global tob...

The article discusses the features of using hardware method recording galvanic skin response (GSR) in studies athletes aimed at identifying and developing mental skills self-regulation. purpose empirical study was to research severity self-regulation young hockey players (n=19) compare data GSR with subjective feelings athletes. results present significant discrepancies between indicators diagn...

The purpose of the present study was to examine whether breathing pattern may be used as a reliable index for the effectiveness of techniques applied for the regulation of mental states. Heart rate (HR), breathing pattern, galvanic skin response (GSR), and electromyogram (EMG) of the frontalis muscle were measured in 39 male and female subjects aged 18-25 years during 10-minute treatment with r...

By F. RODRIGUEZ-ERDMANN T HE SANARELLI-SHWARTZMAN phenomenon-generalized Shwartzman reaction (GSR )-is observed in rabbits after two properly spaced intravenous injections of endotoxin derived from gram-negative bacteria and is characterized by profound collapse and hemorrhagic diathesis. Marked changes in the blood clotting mechanism in animals undergoing GSR have been described’6’30’35 and re...

Large-amplitude (10-15 K) millennial-duration warming events, the Dansgaard-Oeschger (DO) events, repeatedly occurred in the North Atlantic region during ice ages. So far, the trigger of these events is not known. To explain their recurrence pattern, a ghost stochastic resonance (GSR) scenario has been suggested, i.e., a dynamical scenario in which the events represent the subharmonic response ...
