Abstract Introduction Many adolescents get insufficient sleep on schooldays because they need to wake up early. It is often assumed that students can in longer non-schooldays (weekends and holiday periods) recover their debt. However, few studies have explored the degree which are given freedom extend nocturnal sleep. Here, (1) we investigated how awoken by an alarm or family member non-schoold...

The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of Normast 300 mg in reducing swelling and pain after the surgical extraction of impacted lower third molars. Materials and Methods. A randomized, split-mouth, single-blind study was conducted on 30 patients between 18 and 30 years of age requiring lower third molar extraction. Patients underwent bilateral extractions in a randomized sequence, on...

NaNet is a FPGA-based PCIe Network Interface Card (NIC) design with GPUDirect and Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) capabilities featuring a configurable and extensible set of network channels. The design currently supports both standard — Gbe (1000BASE-T) and 10GbE (10Base-R) — and custom — 34 Gbps APElink and 2.5 Gbps deterministic latency KM3link — channels, but its modularity allows for st...

HIV infection is characterized by immune system dysregulation, including depletion of CD4+ T cells, immune activation, and abnormal B- and T-cell responses. However, the immunologic mechanisms underlying lymphocytic dysfunctionality and whether it is restricted to immune responses against neo antigens, recall antigens, or both is unclear. Here, we immunized SIV-infected and uninfected rhesus ma...

Title: Cross-Cultural Psychology. Subject(s): ETHNOPSYCHOLOGY; CULTURE; PSYCHOLOGY Source: Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, Jan2000, Vol. 31 Issue 1, p129, 19p Author(s): Kagitcibasi, Cigdem; Poortinga, Ype H.

The performance and strategies used in electron reconstruction and selection at CMS are presented based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1, collected in proton-proton collisions at √ s = 8 TeV at the CERN LHC. The paper focuses on prompt isolated electrons with transverse momenta ranging from about 5 to a few 100 GeV. A detailed description is given of the algorithms...
