BACKGROUND Abundant research shows that childhood adversity increases the risk for adult psychopathology while research on influences of positive family environment on risk for psychopathology is limited. Similarly, a growing body of research examines genetic and gene by environment predictors of psychopathology, yet such research on predictors of resilience is sparse. OBJECTIVES We examined ...

The cross-talk between oocyte and somatic cells plays a crucial role in the regulation of follicular development and oocyte maturation. As a result, granulosa cell apoptosis causes follicular atresia. In this study, sheep granulosa cells were cultured under thermal stress to induce apoptosis, and melatonin (MT) was examined to evaluate its potential effects on heat-induced granulosa cell injury...

Composite stimuli are whole faces comprised of two halves taken from different individuals. When asked to decide if two identical top halves are the 'same', subjects are more accurate (or faster to respond) in misaligned trials, than in aligned trials. This performance advantage for misaligned trials is referred to as the composite face effect (CFE). The proposed explanation is that aligned fea...

Abstract This systematic review aims to test the hypothesis that microbleeds detected by MRI are common and show a characteristic pattern in cerebral fat embolism (CFE). Eighty-four papers involving 140 CFE patients were eligible for this based on literature search up 31 January 2020. An additional case was added from hospital records. Patient data individually scrutinised extract epidemiologic...

Antigen-specific CD4+ T lymphocyte responses contribute to protective immunity against Babesia bovis, however the antigens that induce these responses remain largely unknown. A proteomic approach was used to identify novel B. bovis antigens recognized by memory CD4+ T cells from immune cattle. Fractions obtained from merozoites separated by continuous-flow electrophoresis (CFE) that contained p...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2014-204955 DESCRIPTION A 74-year-old man underwent an uncomplicated right total hip arthroplasty revision. Postoperatively, the patient had no focal neurological deficits. Twelve hours later, his mental status declined and he was subsequently intubated. He had roving ey...

This paper deals with the problem of robust adaptive array beamforming by exploiting the signal cyclostationarity. Recently, a novel cyclostationarity-exploiting beamforming method has been proposed by J.-H. Lee and C.-C. Huang (2009) for dealing with the situation of multiple signals of interest (SOI) based on the LS-SCORE algorithm. This method is referred to as the multiple LSSCORE (MLS-SCOR...

Anthropogenic land use/land cover (LULC) change alters terrestrial gross primary productivity (GPP), the largest land-atmosphere carbon exchanges. Identifying impacts of LULC changes on future GPP has been challenging due to scarcity standardized for ecosystem models. Here, we present eight scenario-based projections global spatially explicit at 1-km resolution over period 2015–2100 with a Futu...
