Groundwater discharge to the western Antarctic coastal ocean
(2019)
Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) measurements have been limited along the Antarctic coast, although groundwater discharge is becoming recognized as an important process in the Antarctic. Quantifying ...
Contribution and distribution of inorganic ions and organic compounds to the osmotic adjustment in Halostachys caspica response to salt stress
(2015-09)
The mechanism by which plants cope with salt stress remains poorly understood. The goal of this study is to systematically investigate the contribution and distribution of inorganic ions and organic compounds to the osmotic ...
Healthcare interprofessional team members' perspectives on human caring: A directed content analysis study
(2019-01-10)
Objectives:
As Watson's Human Caring Theory continues to evolve and guide the discipline of nursing, the challenge is to find ways to integrate it into practice. The purpose of this study is to describe interprofessional ...
Complex N-Glycans Influence the Spatial Arrangement of Voltage Gated Potassium Channels in Membranes of Neuronal-Derived Cells
(2015-09-08)
The intrinsic electrical properties of a neuron depend on expression of voltage gated potassium (Kv) channel isoforms, as well as their distribution and density in the plasma membrane. Recently, we showed that N-glycosylation ...
Ground state modulations in the CP N−1 model
(2019-10-16)
In this work we examine a system consisting of a confined one-dimensional arrangement of atoms that
we describe by using the 2-dimensional CPN−1 model, restricted to an interval and at finite temperature.
We develop a ...
Glaucomatous optic disc changes despite normal baseline intraocular pressure in a child
(2018-12-14)
Purpose:
We describe a case of normal tension glaucoma in the setting of sickle cell disease in a 9-year-old patient with a five-year follow up.
Observations:
A 9-year-old male patient with a history of sickle cell ...
Advancing research on racial-ethnic health disparities: Improving measurement equivalence in studies with diverse samples
(2014)
To conduct meaningful, epidemiologic research on racial-ethnic health disparities, racial-ethnic samples must be rendered equivalent on other social status and contextual variables via statistical controls of those extraneous ...
Spatial and temporal translational control of germ cell mRNAs mediated by the eIF4E isoform IFE-1
(2015)
Regulated mRNA translation is vital for germ cells to produce new
proteins in the spatial and temporal patterns that drive gamete
development. Translational control involves the de-repression of
stored mRNAs and their ...
Nuclear progestin receptor (Pgr) knockouts in zebrafish demonstrate role for Pgr in ovulation but not in rapid non-genomic steroid mediated meiosis resumption
(2015)
Progestins, progesterone derivatives, are the most critical signaling steroid for initiating final
oocyte maturation (FOM) and ovulation, in order to advance fully-grown immature oocytes
to become fertilizable eggs in ...
Challenges to adaptation: a fundamental concept for the shared socio-economic pathways and beyond
(2014)
The framework for the new scenarios being developed for climate research calls
for the development of a set of Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs), which are meant to
differ in terms of their challenges to mitigation ...
