Survival under stress, such as exposure to hypoxia, anoxia, freezing, dehydration, air exposure of water breathing organisms, and estivation, is commonly associated to enhanced endogenous antioxidants, a phenomenon coined "preparation for oxidative stress" (POS). The regulation of free radical metabolism seems to be crucial under these selective pressures, since this response is widespread amon...

Retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells mediate the recognition and clearance of effete photoreceptor outer segments (POS), a process central to the maintenance of normal vision. Given the emerging importance of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in transmembrane signaling in response to invading pathogens as well as endogenous substances, we hypothesized that TLRs are associated with RPE cell managemen...

Daily phagocytosis of photoreceptor outer segment fragments (POS) by the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is essential for vision. RPE cells use an uptake machinery that is highly similar to the one macrophages use to phagocytose apoptotic cells. In both forms of phagocytosis, particle binding induces phagocyte signaling that is required for F-actin assembly and re-arrangement beneath bound par...

Part of speech (POS) tagging is the process of assigning the part of speech tag or other lexical class marker to each and every word in a sentence. In many Natural Language Processing applications such as word sense disambiguation, information retrieval, information processing, parsing, question answering, and machine translation, POS tagging is considered as the one of the basic necessary tool...

AIMS The posterior region of the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), which forms its sulcogyral pattern during neurodevelopment, receives multisensory inputs. The purpose of the present study was to assess the relationship between posterior OFC sulcogyral pattern and OFC volume difference in patients with panic disorder. METHODS The anatomical pattern of the posterior orbital sulcus (POS) was classif...

Abstrak The Malay language is an Austronesian language spoken in most countries in the South East Asia region that includes Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei and Thailand. Traditional linguistics is well developed for Malay but there are very limited resources and tools that are available or made accessible for computer linguistic analysis of Malay language. Assigning part of speech (POS) ...

Part-of-Speech(POS) tagging is a process of assigning a POS to each word in a sentence. Since many words are often ambiguous in their POSs, POS tagging must be able to select the best POS sequence for a given sentence. Recently, probabilis-tic approaches have shown very promising results to solve such ambiguity problems. Probabilistic approaches, however, usually require lots of training data t...

As a common mental disorder, depressive symptoms had been studied extensively all over the world. However, positive resources for combating depressive symptoms among Chinese doctors were rarely studied. Our study aimed to investigate the relationships between work-family conflict (WFC) and family-work conflict (FWC) with depressive symptoms among Chinese doctors. Meanwhile, the role of perceive...
