Introduction: Externally added survival/growth factors are essential for the survival of healthy cells, however cancer cells are believed to be self-sufficient in supporting their auto-proliferation without the need of...
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) affects approximately 1 in 10 Americans. Diabetic nephropathy is also associated with the development of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD). CKD-MBD disrupts the normal...

Postpartum preeclampsia refers to hypertension and proteinuria after delivery, and the occurrence of a seizure within six weeks after delivery is called postpartum eclampsia. Etiology is unknown but theorized to involve...
Students frequently report difficulty learning information presented at the end of long study sequences. Prior research has shown that information presented earlier in a study sequence interferes with learning of information...
The design, administration, input, and evolution of an epigenetic database containing metadata across studies was created using cloud based tools with permission and blinding capacities. The database was designed to store the...
Bristles are mechanosensory organs in the Drosophila peripheral nervous system composed of four cells that adopt different fates and differentiate. These four cells (neuron, shaft, sheath, and socket) arise from a sensory organ...
30 cm from heart level; CVAR), venoarteriolar response plus a decrease in perfusion pressure (venous occlusion by proximal cuff inflation; CVAR with DPP), and ischemia (arterial occlusion by proximal cuff inflation) and sweat...
1.0°C. Arm and leg SkBF (laser-Doppler flowmetry) was decreased by engaging the venoarteriolar response (limb lowered ~30 cm from heart level; CVAR), venoarteriolar response plus a decrease in perfusion pressure (venous...
Context: Children with SMA suffer from scoliosis, global weakness, and Thoracic Insufficiency (TIS). Normalized pulmonary function tests are inadequate when evaluating these patients for improvement in PFTs. Objective: Forced...
