1904 |  | Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Baranov, Pavel V. | Diverse bacterial genomes encode an operon of two genes, one of which is an unusual class-I release factor that potentially recognizes atypical mRNA signals other than normal stop codons | ABSTRACT: Background: While all codons that specify amino acids are universally recognized by tRNA molecules, codons signaling termination of translation are recognized by proteins known as class-I release factors (RF). In most eukaryotes and archaea a single RF accomplishes termination at all three... | Class-I release factors; RF1; RF2; Bacterial genomes | 2006 |

1909 |  | Aldous, Jay A.; Engar, Richard C. | Do dentists prescribe narcotics excessively? | Dealing with pain is an inevitable sequela to dental treatment. Although several drug regimens primarily involving narcotics have been used in the past, availability of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has increased recently.

The role of cross-immunity in maintaining the diversity of the common cold | Over 100 serotypes of rhinoviruses, one of the primary causes of the common cold, co-circulate in the human population. This high diversity makes it effectively impossible to develop a vaccine, even for those at risk of complications due to asthma or cystic fibrosis. | Serotypes; mutation rate; immunodominance | 2006 |

1915 |  | Clayton, Dale H. | Does avian malaria reduce fledging success: an experimental test of the selection hypothesis | Like many parasites, avian haematozoa are often found at lower infection intensities in older birds than young birds. One explanation, known as the "selection" hypothesis, is that infected young birds die before reaching adulthood, thus removing the highest infection intensities from the host popul... | | 2013-01-01 |
1916 |  | Zick, Cathleen D. | Does daylight savings time encourage physical activity? | Background: Extending Daylight Savings Time (DST) has been identified as a policy intervention that may encourage physical activity.

W. | Does thalamotomy alter the course of Parkinson's disease? | Irving Cooper (3) observed that unilateral Parkinson's disease seemed less likely to progress to the other side of the body after thalamotomy that abolished contralateral tremor and rigidity, an effect that he felt might be the result of either the surgery itself or the slow progression of that par... | | 1996 |
1921 |  | Millgram, Elijah | Does the categorical imperative give rise to a contradiction in the will? | The Brave New World-style utilitarian dystopia is a familiar feature of the cultural landscape; Kantian dystopias are harder to come by, perhaps because, until Rawls, Kantian morality presented itself as a primarily personal rather than political program. This asymmetry is peculiar for formal reas... | Categorical imperative; Dystopia; Self-refutation | 2003 |
1922 |  | Thompson, William B.; Willemsen, Peter; Gooch, Amy A.; Creem-Regehr, Sarah Hope | Does the quality of the computer graphics matter when judging distances in visually immersive environments? | In the real world, people are quite accurate judging distances to locations in the environment, at least for targets resting on the ground plane and distances out to about 20m. Distance judgments in visually immersive environments are much less accurate. Several studies have now shown that in vis... | Visually immersive environments | 2002-12-05 |

1925 |  | Zick, Cathleen D. | Does the teaching of home economics skills have an economic payoff? The case of clothing construction | In recent years secondary schools have begun to view their home economics programs as an increasing marginal portion of their overall curricula.
