A well-established finding in research on concepts and categories is that some members are rated as better or more typical examples than others. It is generally thought that typicality reflects centrality, that is, that typical examples are those that are similar to many other members of the category. This interpretation of typicality is based on studies in which participants had little knowled...

Many decisions can be affected by certain types of interaction effects among and between some criteria of a coherent family of criteria, as for example, those resulting from a synergy or a redundancy phenomenon. However, in real-world decision aiding situations the relevant interactions (which should be modeled) are those that generally occur only between a small number of criteria pairs. Prese...

Amniotic band sequence (ABS) is the term applied to a wide range of congenital anomalies, most typically limb and digital amputations and constriction rings, that occur in association with fibrous bands (1). These alterations may be associated or not with cutaneous and visceral abnormalities. This work, which is a literature review, examines several studies that relate to cases of amniotic band...

Recent data suggest that the role of CYP3A4 in imatinib metabolism is smaller than presumed. This study aimed to evaluate the quantitative importance of different cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes in imatinib pharmacokinetics. First, the metabolism of imatinib was investigated using recombinant P450 enzymes and human liver microsomes with P450 isoform-selective inhibitors. Thereafter, an in silico...
