Electrodermal activity (EDA) recordings are widely used in experimental psychology to measure skin conductance responses (SCRs) that reflect sympathetic nervous system arousal. However, irregular respiration patterns and deep breaths can cause EDA fluctuations that are difficult to distinguish from genuine arousal-related SCRs, presenting a methodological challenge that increases the likelihood...

EDA HAS BEEN AN IMMENSELY successful field, helping to manage the exponential increase in our capability to implement ICs that incorporate billions of transistors. At the same time, EDA has fostered and applied theories of computation and modeling, successfully combining them with practice. EDA has completely transformed the way that electronics engineers design and manufacture ICs. It was one ...

Anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with immunodeficiency (EDA-ID) is characterized according to its various manifestations, which include ectodermal dysplasia, vascular anomalies, osteopetrosis, and diverse immunological abnormalities such as susceptibility to pathogens, impaired antibody responses to polysaccharides, hypogammaglobulinemia, hyper-IgM syndrome, impaired natural killer cell cytotoxi...

Today there are quite a few widespread misconceptions of exploratory data analysis (EDA). One of these misperceptions is that EDA is said to be opposed to statistical modeling. Actually, the essence of EDA is not about putting aside all modeling and preconceptions; rather, researchers are urged not to start the analysis with a strong preconception only, and thus modeling is still legitimate in ...

BACKGROUND Pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass is essential to increase the cellulase accessibility for bioconversion of lignocelluloses by breaking down the biomass recalcitrance. In this work, a novel pretreatment method using ethylenediamine (EDA) was presented as a simple process to achieve high enzymatic digestibility of corn stover (CS) by heating the biomass-EDA mixture with high sol...

The highly conserved ectodysplasin A (EDA)/EDA receptor signaling pathway is critical during development for the formation of skin appendages. Mutations in genes encoding components of the EDA pathway disrupt normal appendage development, leading to the human disorder hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Spontaneous mutations in the murine Eda (Tabby) phenocopy human X-linked hypohidrotic ectoder...

Fibronectin is a crucial extracellular matrix (ECM) protein regulating ECM-dependent cell adhesion, migration, and differentiation. Besides being deposited as insoluble fibrils in tissues, it is also produced as soluble dimers by the liver and released in plasma. The presence of fibronectin in atherosclerotic plaques was described more than 20 years ago and plasma fibronectin has been shown to ...

Fibronectin (FN) has a complex pattern of alternative splicing at the mRNA level. One of the alternatively spliced segments, EDA, is prominently expressed during biological processes involving substantial cell migration and proliferation, such as embryonic development, malignant transformation, and wound healing. To examine the function of the EDA segment, we overexpressed recombinant FN isofor...
