A method to identify discharged patients at risk for adverse psychological outcome would be helpful in the triage for ICU follow-up and could enable early i...

Introduction: An achondrite, Dhofar 007 (~27 kg) was found in the Oman desert and was initially classified as a cumulate eucrite [1]. However, Yamaguchi et al. [2] showed that a coarse-grained clast (CG clast) in Dhofar 007 has a high abundance of metallic phases and the high bulk Ni and Co contents, and suggested a possible relationship with mesosiderites. We performed an additional petrologic...

Peroxisomal targeting signals (PTSs) are recognized by predominantly cytosolic receptors, Pex5p and Pex7p. The fate of these PTS receptors following their interactions on the peroxisomal membrane with components of docking and putative translocation complexes is unknown. Using both novel and multiple experimental approaches, we show that human Pex5p does not just bind cargo and deliver it to th...

Pure Type Systems are usually described in two different ways, one that uses an external notion of computation like beta-reduction, and one that relies on a typed judgment of equality, directly in the typing system.

We wished to evaluate the influence of PTSD on HRQoL and to investigate the influence of perceived social support during intensive care unit (ICU) treatment on both PTSD symptoms and HRQoL. ME...
