Symons, John David | Quercetin: a treatment for hypertension? - a review of efficacy and mechanisms | Quercetin is a polyphenolic flavonoid. Common sources in the diet are apples, onions, berries, and red wine. Epidemiological studies have found an inverse relationship between dietary quercetin intake and cardiovascular disease. This has led to in vitro, in vivo, and clinical research to determine ... | 2010 | |

Gerig, Guido | A new framework for analyzing white matter maturation in early brain development | The trajectory of early brain development is marked by rapid growth presented by volume but also by tissue property changes. Capturing regional characteristics of axonal structuring and myelination via neuroimaging requires analysis of longitudinal image data with multiple modalities. Complementary ... | 2010-01-01 | |

O'Rourke, Dennis H. | Ascertainment bias for non-twin relatives in twin proband studies | When families are ascertained through affected twins, as for example when twin probands are selected from a registry and their non-twin relatives studied, a correction for ascertainment bias is needed. It is shown that probandwise counting (where relatives of doubly ascertained twin pairs are counte... | Genetic; Transmission; Models | 1982 |

Owen, William E.; Roberts, William L. | Comparable effects of DIGIBIND and DigiFab in thirteen digoxin immunoassays | Digoxin is widely prescribed for the treatment of cardiac conditions (1). Because of its narrow therapeutic range, digoxin-related toxicity resulting from acute or chronic overdose is common. Metabolites of digoxin as well as related compounds, including digitoxin, tanshinones, bufandienolide, a... | DIGIBIND; DigiFab; Digoxin immunoassays; Digoxin toxicity | 2002 |

Gondolo, Paolo | Dark Stars: the first stars in the universe may be powered by dark matter healing | A new line of research on Dark Stars is reviewed, which suggests that the first stars to exist in the universe were powered by dark matter heating rather than by fusion. Weakly Interacting Massive Particles, which may be there own antipartmers, collect inside the first stars and annihilate to produc... | Dark stars; WIMP; Weakly interacting massive particles | 2009 |

Kestle, John R. W. | Determining the best cerebrospinal fluid shunt valve design: the pediatric valve design trial | Myriad cerebrospinal fluid shunt valve designs are available (17, IS). None has ever been shown to be superior to another, although claims by neurosurgeons and shunt manufacturers of the merits of particular designs are numerous.

Dwight, Zachary Lawrence | Heterozygote PCR product melting curve prediction | Melting curve prediction of PCR products is limited to perfectly complementary strands. Multiple domains are calculated by recursive nearest-neighbor thermodynamics. However, the melting curve of an amplicon containing a heterozygous single nucleotide variant (SNV) after PCR is the composite of four... | 2014-01-01 | |

Erickson, J. Alan; Smith, Jeffrey, J.; Bornhorst, Joshua A.; Ashwood, Edward R. | Humananti-mouse antibody protected ELISA for the quantification of squamous cell carcinoma antigen | Squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC) was first isolated from squamous cell carcinoma tissue of the uterine cervix and initially reported as TA-4. The antigen has been characterized as a glycoprotein with a molecular weight between 45,000 and 55,000 daltons. Studies suggest that SCC may function as ... | SCC; Squamous Cell Carcinoma Antigen; BSA; PBS; Phosphate Buffered Saline; HAMA; Human Anti-mouse Antibodies; IIR; ImmunoglobulinInhibiting Reagent | 2005-12-09 |

Christensen, Douglas A.; Andrade, Joseph D. | Improved sensitivity in ellipsometry of thin biochemical films by employing sublayers | Ellipsometry is widely used for investigating the optical properties of thin films on planar substrates, including films of adsorbed proteins or polymers. The average thickness and effective refractive index of the adsorbed layer are calculated by measuring the A and ¥ ellipsometry parameters. Unfo... | Biochemical films; SiO2 sublayer | 1990 |

Zhdanov, Michael S. | New approach to interpretation of airborne magnetic and electromagnetic data | We present a new technique for underground imaging based on the idea of space-frequency filtering and downward continuation of the observed airborne magnetic and electromagnetic data. The technique includes two major methods. The first method is related to the downward analytical continuation and ... | 1996-01-01 | |

Kestle, John R. W.; Walker, Marion L. | Noncommunicating spinal extradural arachnoid cyst causing spinal cord compression in a child | Extradural arachnoid cysts in the spine are relatively uncommon causes of spinal cord compression in the pediatric population that are thought to arise from congenital defects in the dura mater. Most reports describe such cysts communicating with the intrathecal subarachnoid space through a small de... | 2006 | |

Mathews, V. John; Varner, Michael W.; Clark, Edward B. | Prediction of pregnancy-induced hypertension using coherence analysis | ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel method to predict hypertensive disorders in pregnancy using coherence analysis. Previous studies suggest that there is inadequate secondary trophoblast invasion in hypertensive pregnancies implying that there are differences in the functional relationships betwe... | 2004 | |

Sample, Susan | Shattering stereotypes: aging adults aren't naturally unhappy | Healthy older adults ramain engaged and interested in life. Just because they're aging doesn't mean they lose interest in life. "In this culture, we have a perception of what it's like to grow old: life isn't a whole lot of fun" We have an image of older adults whose faces are lined with fatigue as ... | Aging Adults; Depression; Geriatrics | 1998-12 |

Broughton, John | Size of the bursa of fabricius in relation to gonad size and age in laysan and black-footed albatrosses | Age determination can be difficult for birds that undergo little or no plumage change during life. This is the case for Laysan and Black-footed Albatrosses (Diomedea immutabilis and D. nigripes). The juvenile plumage for both these North Pacific albatrosses is completely grown by about five to six m... | Birds; Species; Development | 1994 |

Regehr, John | Testing static analyzers with randomly generated programs | Static analyzers should be correct. We used the random C-program generator Csmith, initially intended to test C compilers, to test parts of the Frama-C static analysis platform. Although Frama-C was already relatively mature at that point, fifty bugs were found and fixed during the process, in the f... | 2012-01-01 | |

Clayton, Dale H. | Biology, ecology, and evolution of chewing lice | Chewing lice are small, dorsoventrally compressed insects and are parasites of virtually all birds (Fig. 1) and some mammals (Fig. 2). Many chewing lice are host specific, being found on only a single species of host. All chewing lice are permanent ectoparasites and complete their entire life c... | Chewing lice | 2003 |

Riloff, Ellen M. | Empirical study of automated dictionary construction for information extraction in three domains | A primary goal of natural language processing researchers is to develop a knowledge-based natural language processing (NLP) system that is portable across domains. However, most knowledge-based NLP systems rely on a domain-specific dictionary of concepts, which represents a substantial knowledge-en... | Information extraction; AutoSlog; Across domains | 1996 |

Regehr, John | Eliminating stack overflow by abstract interpretation | An important correctness criterion for software running on embedded microcontrollers is stack safety: a guarantee that the call stack does not overflow.

Askew, Eldon W | Effect of leucine supplementation on fat free mass with prolonged hypoxic exposure during a 13-day trek to Everest Base Camp: A double-blind randomized study | Loss of body weight and fat free mass (FFM) are commonly noted with prolonged exposure to hypobaric hypoxia. Recent evidence suggests protein supplementation, specifically leucine, may potentially attenuate loss of FFM in subcaloric conditions during normoxia. The purpose of this study was to determ... | 2014-01-01 |
