Elevated Endogenous Erythropoietin Concentrations Are Associated with Increased Risk of Brain Damage in Extremely Preterm Neonates
(2015-03-20)
Background
We sought to determine, in very preterm infants, whether elevated perinatal erythropoietin
(EPO) concentrations are associated with increased risks of indicators of brain damage,
and whether this risk differs ...
Prognostic factor from MR spectroscopy in rat with astrocytic tumour during radiation therapy
(2015-01)
Objective:
To investigate the relationship between the tumour volume and metabolic rates of astrocytic tumours using MR spectroscopy (MRS) during radiation therapy (RT).
Methods:
12 healthy male Sprague-Dawley® rats ...
Self-similarity and non-Markovian behavior in traded stock volumes
(2015)
The volume traded daily for 17 stocks is followed over a period of about half a century. We look at
the volume of stocks traded in a certain time interval (day, week, month) and analyze how long that traded
volume keeps ...
Removal of Thin Clouds in Landsat-8 OLI Data with Independent Component Analysis
(2015)
An approach to remove clouds in Landsat-8 operational land imager (OLI) data
was developed with independent component analysis (ICA). Within cloud-covered areas,
histograms were derived to quantify changes of the reflectance ...
Prevalence of coronary heart disease risk factors in physical education students
(2015)
Abstract To establish the prevalence of coronary risk in physical education students, and compare risk between the genders and the years of course. We evaluated 246 physical education students using RISKO questionnaire to ...
MicroRNA profiling in the left atrium in patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
(2015)
identifying miRNAs that were significantly associated with non-valvular paroxysmal AF.
Methods: The RNA samples were isolated from healthy controls (n = 5) and patients with atrial fibrillation (n = 8). To
confirm the ...
Universal Design for Learning (UDL) in the Academic Library: A Methodology for Mapping Multiple Means of Representation in Library Tutorials
(2015)
Librarians designed a biology tutorial not only to address an assignment, but also to make tutorials more accessible to students with various learning styles. The Science Librarian created the content by using aspects of ...
Emerging roles for the pH-sensing G protein-coupled receptors in response to acidotic stress
(2015)
Protons (hydrogen ions) are the simplest form of ions universally produced by cellular metabolism including aerobic respiration and glycolysis. Export of protons out of cells by a number of acid transporters is essential ...
Insulin/IGF1-PI3K-dependent nucleolar localization of a glycolytic enzyme – phosphoglycerate mutase 2, is necessary for proper structure of nucleolus and RNA synthesis
(2015)
Phosphoglycerate mutase (PGAM), a conserved, glycolytic enzyme has been
found in nucleoli of cancer cells. Here, we present evidence that accumulation of
PGAM in the nucleolus is a universal phenomenon concerning not ...
Increased Long-Term Mortality among Black CABG Patients Receiving Preoperative Inotropic Agents
(2015-07)
The aim of this study was to examine racial differences in long-term mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), stratified by preoperative use of inotropic agents. Black and white patients who required ...
