We assessed the prevalence of common altered brain proteins in 296 cognitively unimpaired subjects ranging from age 50 to 102 years. The incidence and the stage of hyperphosphorylated-s (HPs), b-amyloid, a-synuclein (aS), and transactive response DNA (TDP) binding protein 43 (TDP43)-immunoreactivity (-IR) increased with age. HPs-IR was observed in 98% of the subjects; the locus coeruleus was so...

Acute childhood ataxia is a common cause of presentation to the pediatric emergency room or child neurologist. The primary concern on initial assessment is to exclude serious causes of this clinical syndrome, including central nervous system infections and mass lesions, while recognizing the essentially benign nature of acute ataxia in most children. Childhood ataxia can be diagnostically appro...

Optimisation provides the means of raising or lowering the target suction pressure in a Honeywell Genus® pack controller. Suction pressure optimisation means that suction pressures are raised to the highest level allowed within defined evaporator performance limits. This provides optimum compressor energy consumption while ensuring that the refrigerated merchandise quality is maintained at the ...

Patients undergoing oesophagectomy often have nutritional needs at the time of diagnosis and in the post-operative period. The aim of this article is to review the current literature and report on the author’s experience of routine feeding jejunostomy insertion following oesophagectomy. The records of forty-eight consecutive patients undergoing oesphagectomy under the author’s care were reviewe...

The increased incidence of allergic disease seems to rely on many factors. Among them, the association between genetic variations of the immune response and environmental pressure by allergens, infectious agents and pollutants should be taken into consideration. In alternative to conventional treatments with corticosteroids and antihistaminics, nutraceuticals have been shown to act on allergic ...

305 The Rockefeller University Press $30.00 J. Cell Biol. Vol. 216 No. 2 305–315 https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201610042 Introduction Tissue physical properties depend on the cells that make the tissue and also seem to be affected by tissue use. For example, muscle, cartilage, and bone, when suitably exercised, generate or resist mechanical forces that can be many times the weights of these tissu...

We describe a design for a sideband-separating balanced mixer using four planar single-ended mixer chips connected to the feed horn and LO source by a network of quadrature waveguide hybrids and an in-phase waveguide power divider. The mixer has separate IF output ports for the downconverted signals from the upper and lower RF sidebands, and requires ~14 dB less LO power than a single-ended mix...
