The current study investigated the prevalence and pattern of unusual sensory behaviors (USBs) in teens with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and infants (3-36 months) at risk for ASD. From two different sites (UCSD and UConn), caregivers of infants at high (n = 32) and low risk (n = 33) for ASD, and teenagers with (n = 12) and without ASD (n = 11), completed age-appropriate Sensory Profile questi...

The acromioclavicular joint is commonly affected by trauma to the shoulder girdle due to its subcutaneous position. Athletes who participate in contact sports, such as hockey, football, rugby, and soccer, are particularly susceptible to such injuries. These injuries, however, also occur during noncontact sports such as baseball, skiing, and cycling. The majority of acromioclavicular injuries oc...

The transplantable murine Dunn osteosarcoma has no detectable hypoxanthine:guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.8) activity. This was established from the tumors directly and from tissue culture cell lines derived from the tumor using a variety of assays: e.g., no [3H]hypoxanthine uptake into tumor or tissue culture cells, no conversion of [3H]hypoxanthine to [3H]IMP by cell extracts fro...

I ntroduction: In recent years a number of emerging new therapies have become available for the treatment of severe asthma among which bronchial ther-moplasty is the only nonpharmacologic intervention that has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration in 2010. 1 Although bronchial thermoplasty has great promise for the patient with severe asthma and is now within the thera...

This paper describes the theoretical and technical aspects that were taken into consideration in the design process of iWeaver, an interactive web-based adaptive learning environment. Building on the Dunn & Dunn learning styles model, iWeaver aims to create an individualised learning environment that accommodates specific learning styles. To achieve this, iWeaver uses database-driven JavaServer...

Kuiken and coworkers (1) reported that methionine is not essential for the growth of Lactobacillue arabinosus 17-5. Later, Hegsted (2), working with the same organism, found that growth failed when methionine was not present in the medium. He called att,ention to the apparent discrepancy in the results obtained in the two laboratories and stated that it was probably due to the use of different ...

The root of Actinidia valvata dunn has been widely used in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), proved to be beneficial for a longer and better life in China. In present work, total saponin from root of Actinidia valvata Dunn (TSAVD) was extracted, and its effects on hepatoma H22-based mouse in vivo were observed. Primarily transplanted hypodermal hepatoma H22-based mice were used t...

URING 1937 some abnormal chicks appeared among the progenies of two D different breeding pens of our experimental flock of fowls. These chicks showed a close outward resemblance to specimens of the dominant rumpless variation and its intermediate modifications (DUNN 1925; LANDAUER and DUNN 1925; LANDAUER 1928). The simultaneous occurrence of a number of such rumpless birds suggested that we wer...
