A new sunscreen application technique to protect more efficiently from ultraviolet radiation.
UV radiation protection is an important health issue. Sophisticated sunscreen formulations have been developed to improve compliance. However, sunscreen is still inadequately applied, leaving large body areas without effective protection. This study aims to validate a newly developed sunscreen application technique for...

Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography of emulsified subretinal silicone oil presenting as a macular inverted pseudohypopyon.
The authors present a rare case of an inverted pseudohypopyon due to subretinal emulsified silicone oil in the macula of a patient who underwent pars plana vitrectomy surgery for repair of retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy 1 year prior to presentation of this finding. The patient’s predisposing di...

Effect of body condition on tissue distribution of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus).
Arctic animals undergo large seasonal fluctuations in body weight.

Differential reward learning for self and others predicts self-reported altruism.
In social environments, decisions not only determine rewards for oneself but also for others. However, individual differences in pro-social behaviors have been typically studied through self-report.

Inherent variability in the kinetics of autocatalytic protein self-assembly.
In small volumes, the kinetics of filamentous protein self-assembly is expected to show significant variability, arising from intrinsic molecular noise. This is not accounted for in existing deterministic models. We introduce a simple stochastic model including nucleation and autocatalytic growth via elongation and fra...

Stochastic accumulation by cortical columns may explain the scalar property of multistable perception.
The timing of certain mental events is thought to reflect random walks performed by underlying neural dynamics. One class of such events--stochastic reversals of multistable perceptions--exhibits a unique scalar property: even though timing densities vary widely, higher moments stay in particular proportions to the mea...

Repeatability of feather mite prevalence and intensity in passerine birds.
Understanding why host species differ so much in symbiont loads and how this depends on ecological host and symbiont traits is a major issue in the ecology of symbiosis. A first step in this inquiry is to know whether observed differences among host species are species-specific traits or more related with host-symbiont...

Sheep lung segmental delivery strategy demonstrates adenovirus priming of local lung responses to bacterial LPS and the role of elafin as a response modulator.

Highly selective and sensitive optical sensor for determination of Pb2+ and Hg2+ ions based on the covalent immobilization of dithizone on agarose membrane.
A highly sensitive and selective optical membrane for determination of Hg(2+) and Pb(2+) was prepared by covalent immobilization of dithizone on agarose membrane. In addition to its high stability, reproducibility and relatively long lifetime, the proposed optical sensor revealed good selectivity for target ions over a...

Atrial and ventricular specification of ADSCs is stimulated by different doses of BMP4.
To investigate the effect of BMP4 on cardiomyocyte differentiation of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs), mouse ADSCs were treated with different concentrations of BMP4 in media containing fetal bovine serum (FBS) or Knockout™ Serum Replacement (KoSR). 3 weeks after cardiac induction, differentiated ADSCs expres...

Cloning, homology modeling, and reaction mechanism analysis of a novel cis-epoxysuccinate hydrolase from Klebsiella sp.
The gene encoding a novel cis-epoxysuccinate hydrolase, which hydrolyzes cis-epoxysuccinate to L (+)-tartaric acid, was cloned from Klebsiella sp. BK-58 and expressed in Escherichia coli. The ORF was 825 bp encoding a mature protein of 274 amino acids with a molecular mass of 30.1 kDa. Multiple sequence alignment showe...

The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) mediates anticipatory motor control.
Flexible and precisely timed motor control is based on functional interaction within a cortico-subcortical network. The left posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is supposed to be crucial for anticipatory motor control by sensorimotor feedback matching. Intention of the present study was to disentangle the specific relevanc...

Association between low 25-hydroxyvitamin D, insulin resistance and arterial stiffness in nondiabetic women with systemic lupus erythematosus.
The objective of this paper is to examine if there is an association between low levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and insulin resistance (IR) in nondiabetic women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to evaluate its impact on arterial stiffness. In this cross-sectional study 25(OH)D, insulin, insulin resi...

Organizational aspects of primary care related to avoidable hospitalization: a systematic review.
Often used indicators for the quality of primary care are hospital admissions rates for conditions which are potentially avoidable by well-functioning primary care. Such hospitalizations are frequently termed as ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSCs). We aim to investigate which characteristics of primary care or...

Alternative diagnoses in patients in whom the GP considered the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism.

When the differential diagnosis includes PE, an empirical list of frequently occurring alternative diagnoses could support the GP in diagnostic decision making. To identify common alternative diagnoses in patients in...
