Tactile perception is obtained by coordinated motor-sensory processes. We studied the processes underlying the perception of object location in freely moving rats. We trained rats to identify the rela…
OBJECTIVE: The registration of applied fiducial markers within the preoperative data is often left to the surgeon, who has to identify and tag the center of each marker. This is both time-consuming an…
Heart rate (HR) power spectral indexes are limited as measures of the cardiac autonomic nervous systems (CANS) in that they neither offer an effective marker of the beta-sympathetic nervous system (SN…
A series of new fluorescent calix[4]arenes (2-7; 5 has been isolated as two not yet described conformational isomers) featuring two directly lower rim attached dansyl moieties besides other lower or u…
Recent studies have established that pinealocytes of the mammalian pineal gland contain marker molecules of neuroendocrine cells or paraneurons like the synaptic vesicle-associated protein synaptophys…
OBJECTIVE: Fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy for evaluation of spongiform nodules ?20 mm or observation without FNA was recommended by American Thyroid Association. However, this was a weak recommen…
BACKGROUND: Numerous studies have revealed structural brain changes in late life depression, mainly in white matter or whole lobes with few focussing just on grey matter (GM). The objective was to inv…
PURPOSE: Three dimensional analysis of the face is required for the assessment of complex changes following surgery, pathological conditions and to monitor facial growth. The most suitable method may …
A method for estimating the sample size required to attain a predefined linkage decision quality (type I and type II errors) is proposed using the linkage test power estimate developed by Ginsburg et …
1. The observation that the external and internal interosseous intercostal muscles in the dog show marked regional differences in mechanical advantage has prompted us to re-examine the topographic dis…
To understand the evolution of sexually dimorphic communication signals, we must quantify their costs, including their energetic costs, the regulation of these costs, and the difference between the co…
The natural transmission cycle of Yellow Fever (YF) involves tree hole breeding mosquitoes and a wide array of nonhuman primates (NHP), including monkeys and apes. Some Neotropical monkeys (howler mon…
OBJECTIVE: Individuals with anorexia nervosa are known to be ascetic and able to sustain self-denial of food as well as most comforts and pleasures in life. Building on previous findings of altered st…
To study the changes in carnitine during intense muscular effort subjects underwent 4 min intermittent electrical stimulation of the quadriceps femoris muscle and on a separate occasion performed 4 mi…
The effect of short-term denervation on the response to insulin was studied in isolated rat soleus and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles 6 and 24 h after severing one sciatic nerve. Impaired ins…
The inflammatory and fibrotic intensity of a foreign body reaction largely depends on the porosity of the implanted material. Furthermore, the size of the pore and its geometry define the capability t…
BACKGROUND: To explore the adsorption of heterologous antibodies in 6 xenotransplants of Landrace piglet kidneys into rhesus monkeys.METHODS: The Landrace piglets and rhesus monkeys were used as donor…
In previous studies on streptozotocin-diabetic rats, transplantation of 1,000 (but not of 400) pancreatic islets to the renal subcapsular space was followed within 10 days by near-normalization of the…
BACKGROUND: Anxiety Sensitivity (AS), the tendency to fear the thoughts, symptoms, and social consequences associated with the experience of anxiety, is associated with increased risk for developing a…
