After a brief review of the puzzling light scalar meson sector of QCD, a brief summary will be given of a paper concerning radiative decays involving the light scalars. There, a simple vector meson dominance model is constructed in an initial attempt to relate a large number of the radiative decays involving a putative scalar nonet to each other. As an application it is illustrated why a0(980)−...

The definite interest sliown recently in problems of handedness and particularly in those of the relationship, now generally accepted, between handedness and "eyedness" has motivated a further interest at the Psychological Clinic of the University of Pennsylvania m the orthogenic procedure that seems best adapted for those individuals whose disability in reading seemed etiologically to rest wit...

OBJECTIVE This project was directed at examination of the potential reciprocal relationship between empathy and social dominance orientation (SDO), with the purpose of testing the predictions from Duckitt's highly influential dual process model of prejudice, and further examining the validity of the mere effect view of social dominance orientation. METHOD To examine this relationship, the aut...

Previous work demonstrates an essential role of subplate neurons during ocular dominance (OD) column formation in the developing visual cortex. While inhibitory circuitry has also been shown to play an essential role in OD plasticity, the relationship between subplate neurons and the development of inhibitory circuits has been unclear. In this issue of Neuron, Kanold and Shatz provide evidence ...

The aims of the present study are to: (1) determine within- and between-session reliability multiple metrics obtained during triple hop test; (2) any systematic bias in both test inter-limb asymmetry scores for these metrics. Thirteen male young American football athletes performed three trials a on each leg two separate occasions. In addition to total distance hopped, manual detection touch do...

Antioxidant-prooxidant imbalance is one of the key mechanisms acute blood loss and ischemic-reperfusion syndrome. Under these conditions, level ceruloplasmin (CP) plays an important role, enhancing antioxidant protection promoting hematopoiesis, exhibiting ferrooxidase action. However, in this case, state antioxidant-prooxidant balance spleen content CP serum studied insufficiently, thus there ...

we have produced a spectrum of limb defects in developing mouse embryos by exposing the mother to smoke from cigarettes with different nicotine concentrations, ethanol, and a combination of ethanol and cigarette smoke. the critical time of exposure was determined to be during day 10 of gestation (vaginal plug=day 0). this time is prior to the critical events which occur between the apical ectod...

New approaches to the study of ocular dominance development, a model system for the development of neural architecture, indicate that eye-specific columns in primary visual cortex emerge substantially before the onset of the critical period, during which neural connections can be altered by visual experience. The timing, speed and specificity of column emergence implicate molecular patterning m...
