Age at asthma onset considerably affects asthma prognosis and remission. Early-onset asthma often remits in adolescence, unlike adult-onset asthma, which seldom remits. Thus, the knowledge of age at onset is crucial in evaluating the prognosis of asthma, as well as research on causal factors and...
Since condom use may imply a lesser protection against HPV infection than against several other sexually transmitted infections, [20, 21] HPV vaccination needs to be promoted as well. The fact that younger age at first intercourse is associated with risky (sexual) behavior is corroborated by ...
I let the BCBAs do their book learnin' thing, then I mostly ignore them. They mean well. But I've never seen a behavior "extinguished" that I can directly correlate with a bip, aka behavior plan. I have 82 years of 24/7 experience between my 3 daughters (ages 30, 28, 24) versu...
The physiological systems that decline with age and contribute to variation in senescence are not well understood. Interestingly, our results are consistent with the idea that several physiological measures improve, rather than decline with age in this extremely long-lived fish. We found that older i...
information, including the typical duration of protection after infection, attack rates in different epidemics, and the odds ratios of infection from one epidemic to the next (Fig.1c). These simulations are also useful for checking how well the model reproduces different features of the data (...
Despite the dramatic loss of mesophytic habitat, it has a well-developed wetland flora, with many endemic species [2]. Perhaps the most unique of these habitats are ephemeral bodies of water that are home to communities characterized by extreme reduction in plant size, and annual or geophytic...
we provide evidence and arguments on the emergent nature of what could become a distinct research field and yet is not at present. Second, we propose a framework that may help to critically analyze the current status of knowledge of CE in the digital age as well as to properly identify new...
This is disappointing because, in practice, a well-designed legal framework can make it incumbent on the organisation to formally notify individuals, the regulator, and the public of a breach. In Europe, where the GDPR’s definition of data subjects places individuals as the ultimate owners of ...
The dataset includes 533 different year-month-species measurement, represented as a list of species names and their count in each age class. As shown in Table1, the data consist of 15 columns comprising taxonomic information, count in each age class, as well as the information on sampling. ...
