Social rejection can increase aggression, especially among people high in rejection sensitivity. Rejection impairs self-control, and deficits in self-control often result in aggression. A dose of glucose can counteract the effect of situational factors that undermine self-control. But no research has integrated these literatures to understand why rejection increases aggression, and how to reduc...

objectives the aim of this study was to examine the effects of interleukin 2 receptor blockers on patient and graft survival in renal-transplanted children. patients and methods one hundred and eighty six children aged 7-13 years who received renal transplantation in university-affiliated hospital between 2003 and 2012 were enrolled in the study. all patients received prednisolone, cyclosporine...

The application of new energy systems for industrial production to advance air pollution prevention and control has become an irreversible trend. This development includes hybrid consisting reversible solid oxide cells (RSOC) a Li-ion battery; however, at present the dispatching such unstable factor in form poor heat/electricity/gas controllability. Therefore, system studied this paper uses bat...

This study investigated how Korean (N = 397) and U.S. (N = 333) children and adolescents (10 and 13 years of age) evaluated personality (aggression, shyness) and group (gender, nationality) characteristics as a basis for peer rejection in three contexts (friendship rejection, group exclusion, victimization). Overall, peer rejection based on group membership was viewed as more unfair than peer r...

This article reviews the literature on the relationship between interpersonal rejection and aggression. Four bodies of research are summarized: laboratory experiments that manipulate rejection, rejection among adults in everyday life, rejection in childhood, and individual differences that may moderate the relationship. The theoretical mechanisms behind the effect are then explored. Possible ex...

OBJECTIVE Rejection sensitivity (RS) is a tendency to expect, perceive, and overreact to rejection. Our objective was to examine whether anxious and angry RS have specific associations with negative social reactions, and whether responses are intensified in situations of high rejection ambiguity. METHOD In two studies, youth (N = 464 and N = 371) reported their RS and anticipated responses to...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the sensitivity of noninvasive surveillance (physical examination, echocardiography) of rejection in accurately predicting histologically documented rejection episodes. Additionally, the usefulness of routine scheduled biopsy and its safety in pediatric patients was explored. BACKGROUND Endomyocardial biopsy has been utilized as...

BACKGROUND/AIMS To analyze alterations of interferon-γ-induced protein 10 (IP-10) and thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) levels in early acute liver transplantation rejection. METHODS Thirty-six patients with early acute liver transplantation rejection were classified as non-, mild, moderate, and severe rejection groups. The levels of serum IP-10 and TARC were determined on days...
