Lazarus' proposal that the less control a person judges himself to have in a threatening situation, the more stressful it will be. A total of 66 male undergraduates was given the Digits Backward test of the WAIS under conditions of nonstress, avoidable shock, or unavoidable shock. Stress was...
Limestones that have been subjected to overburden or tectonic stress can be expected to have changed by some combination of deformation (plastic or brittle), neomorphism (as micrite conversion to microspar or aggrading pseudospar), and solution. Specific limestone units (beds, structures, or grai...
Molecular Responses to Stress Thecellular stress responsewas first dubbed theheat shock response. At least four decades ago, work with fruit flies revealed that transient heat exposure elicited a unique pattern of chromosomal puffing. Later, heat-induced changes inchromosomal structurewere associated with...
Cells adapt to conditions that compromise protein conformational stability by activating various stress response pathways, but the mechanisms used in sensing misfolded proteins remain unclear. Moreover, aggregates of disease proteins often fail to induce a productive stress response. Here, using a yeast...
A potentially irreversible threshold in Antarctic ice shelf melting would be crossed if the ocean cavity beneath the large Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf were to become flooded with warm water from the deep ocean. Previous studies have identified this possibi
corrected by the ratio of the nominal thickness used in the pile response analysis to the lesser of thepile wall thicknessesjoining at the weld. The SCF is to be applied to the nominal pile stress range obtained at the weld location due to in-place loads, from which damage is to be ...
Also, it is shown that remarkable increases of pressure drops are also possible in planar geometries, provided large extensional viscosities combined with moderate values of the first normal stress difference in shear are considered, in addition to considerable reductions of the flow area at the ...
we assessed momentary perceived stress with a one-item visual analogue scale (VAS), which has been used previously (Fischer et al.2016; Linnemann et al.2015). Thereby, the participants responded to the item “I feel stressed” on a VAS ranging from 1 (completely disagree) to 100 (complete...
Empirically supported treatments for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) exist, but research suggests these therapies are less effective, acceptable, and feasible to deliver to active duty service members (SMs) compared to civilians. Stellate ganglion block (SGB) procedure, in which a local anesthetic...
scale for 0, 20, 50, and 100 MV/m field strength conditions. We can see that the 20 MV/m condition does not tend to change the secondary structure of CTT compared to the no field condition. However, both 50 and 100 MV/m field strengths tend to increase the count of residues being...
