OBJECTIVE To investigate the possible association between untreated ADHD symptoms (as measured by the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale) and persistent nonmedical use of prescription stimulants. METHOD Multinomial regression modeling was used to compare ADHD symptoms among three groups of college students enrolled in a longitudinal study over 4 years: (1) persistent nonmedical users of prescriptio...

Cellular stimulating factors on cell proliferation in the supernatants of chick embryo carcases and adult muscles were studied. There were plural stimulating factors in embryonic and adult muscular supernatants that promoted cell proliferation without any supplement of sera and other materials. Salting-out methods with ammonium sulfate, ethanol fractionation, and isoelectric precipitation were ...

OBJECTIVE Recently, a US Food and Drug Administration advisory committee raised concerns about cardiovascular risks and sudden death in children and adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder who are receiving stimulants. METHODS We comment on the risk of sudden death in children/adolescents taking stimulants compared with population rates, biological plausibility, and known ca...

the present study was conducted to determine the plant growth-promoting activities of bradyrhizobium sp. (vigna) strain mrm6 grown in the presence and absence of the selected herbicides, quizalafop-p-ethyl and clodinafop. the herbicide tolerant bradyrhizobium sp. (vigna) strain mrm6 was further tested for bioremediation and plant growth promoting potential using greengram as a test crop, grown ...

objective: taro (colocasia esculenta l. schott) is a perennial root crop that belongs to araceace family.  it is widely cultivated as a staple food in africa, asia and pacific islands. despite its importance, there is limited information on many aspects of the crop. in order to obtain data that can support improved and sustainable taro production, a field trial was conducted to study the effect...

in order to investigate the effect of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) along with zinc (zn) and manganese (mn), foliar spraying on the morphological parameters of basil (ocimum basilicum l.) an experiment was conducted in factorial based on a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2011. treatments were the pgpr inoculation with azotobacter and azospirillum (azb+a...

Relevance. Potatoes occupy a dominant place in the Republic of Ingushetia, along with grain crops and feed production. And use growth stimulators makes it possible to regulate process development more targeted way, as well potentials potato varieties fully. Methods . The studies were carried out 2018–2020. on southern chernozems conditions peasant farm «Khashagulgov A.T.» (Yandare, Ingushetia)....

in the present study, the effect of two species of amf, glomus mosseae and glomus intraradices, alone and in combination, was evaluated on the growth criteria, chlorophyll content, and root rot disease caused by fusarium solani f. sp. pisi, on chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) under greenhouse conditions. chickpea seeds were sown into pots containing 100 g of amf inoculum (more than 1,000 propagule...

It is estimated that 2-3% of children in the US have hypertension (HTN) and 8% of children ages 4-17 carry the diagnosis of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The prevalence of HTN and cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in children with ADHD on CNS stimulant treatment (stimulants) compared to no treatment and compared to their healthy counterparts is not well described. Using Nation...

It is well known that burning of vegetation stimulates new plant growth and landscape regeneration. The discovery that char and smoke from such fires promote seed germination in many species indicates the presence of chemical stimulants. Nitrogen oxides stimulate seed germination, but their importance in post-fire germination has been questioned. Cyanohydrins have been recently identified in aq...
