Genetic translocation of EWSR1 to ETS transcription factor coding region is considered as primary cause for Ewing sarcoma. Previous studies focused on the biology of chimeric transcription factors formed due to this translocation. However, the physiological consequences of heterozygous EWSR1 loss in these tumors have largely remained elusive. Previously, we have identified various mRNAs bound t...

Due to advances of technology in multimedia applications in recent years, the demand for high user end bandwidth point to point links has increased significantly. Jitter requirements have become ever more stringent with the increase in high speed serial link data rates. The introduced jitter severely degrades the performance of the high speed serial link. This paper introduces an adaptive FIR p...

A sample of 129 supporters caring for an elderly mentally infirm relative consecutively referred to psychogeriatric daycare services was interviewed. Information was obtained on the problems encountered by their dependant, the extent of their involvement, the amount of formal and informal support received, the subjective strain and burden reported, and their expectations of their ability to con...

In the description of parental psychopathology in narcotic dependence, emphasis has hitherto largely lain on the identification of addictogenic characteristics rather than on the identification of psychological distress. In an attempt to remedy the situation, we compared the parents of 21 male narcotic dependant patients with an equal number of matched controls. Using the General Health Questio...

The multifunctional buccal central pattern generator in snails, which controls different oral behaviors, has been well characterized. In this work we propose a role for the group of about 40 electrotonically coupled buccal A cluster cells as a context-dependant switch for the buccal central pattern generator, modulating motor patterns that elicit different oral behaviors. We characterize these ...

Aspect Oriented Programming is a new programming technique. This technique reduces the number of points where crosscutting, for instance logging, code has to be placed to a single point. This code, called advices, is later placed at the places where the programmer wants it, the join points. The placing of this code is done automatically and can therefore be dependant on the program, a weaver, w...
