Particular thanks go to Professor Leopoldina Fortunati (Facolta di Scienze della Formazione Universita degli Studi di Udine, Udine, Italy) who encouraged us to pursue the possibility of this special issue in conversation with the Editor in chief, Shuzhi S. Ge. ...
For 2010 through 2013, the dosage form and prescription status of implicated medications were identified. Based on 13,268 cases, there were an estimated 640,161 ED visits (95% confidence interval: 512,885 to 767,436) for unsupervised medication exposures from 2004 through 2013. From 2...
Although the methodology is generally applicable, numerical results are presented only for rods in which one-dimensional basis functions in the form of a power series, as well as equivalent Lagrange, Bernstein or Chebyshev polynomials are used. The new feature of the pro...
An attempt has been made to present the first Report from these subgroups in a complete and homogeneous form. The subgroups' contributions correspondingly comprise the main parts of the Report. A significant amount of work has been performed in providing higher-order corr...
There is a continuous loss in the "B" character of the nucleic acid with concomitant production of the C and, in some instances, an A form, as well, as the salt concentration increases. Sedimentation velocity studies suggest that there is an accompanying change in the hydrodynamic ...
These include a lack of stability and triangulation of instruments. Modifications to the flexible endoscope design form the basis of a number of newly developed and research platforms, some of which are discussed in this review.doi:10.1136/flgastro-2014-100448Nisha PatelAra DarziJulian Teare...
In premeiotic germ cells CREM is expressed at low amounts in the antagonist form. Subsequently, from the pachytene spermatocyte stage onwards, a splicing event generates exclusively the CREMτ activator, which accumulates in extremely high amounts. This splicing-dependent reversal in CREM...
We then present a general form of the MaST design and describe how it can be used to provide proper control of false-positive error rates for biomarker-positive and biomarker-negative subgroups. The operating characteristics of the MaST design are compared by analytical methods and simulations to ...
Cross-sectional data from the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) were analyzed to test the validity of the MOS 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) scales as measures of physical and mental health constructs. Results from traditional psychometric and clinical tests of validity were co...
Autophagy is initiated at the isolation membrane (originally termed the phagophore), and the coordinated action of ATG (autophagy-related) proteins results in the expansion of this membrane to form the autophagosome. Although the biogenesis of the isolation membrane and the autophagosome...
