Suitable rootstock enhances apple tree resilience. In 2021, we studied “Buckeye Gala” ( Malus domestica var. Buckeye Gala") on nine rootstocks with contrasting vigor in NS and BC, Canada. Rootstock effects vigor, yield, midday stem water potential were significant BC. After sustained heat events, the large-dwarfing Geneva 935, 4814, 969 had lower ratio of sunburn fruits, resulting higher projec...

BACKGROUND This study aimed to examine whether fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) was related to two important health behaviours (physical activity and smoking) in a large sample of colorectal cancer patients. METHODS Ten thousand nine hundred sixty nine patients, diagnosed in 2010-11, and in remission in 2013, completed the 'Living with and Beyond Colorectal Cancer' survey. The survey included ...

While the field of pediatric hematology goes back to the time of the discovery of the microscope, pediatric oncology has only a relatively short history of about 60 years [1]. However, incredible progress has been made, most of it due to extensive collaborations, agreement on general treatment approaches, such as protocols and guidelines, and rigorous attention to treatment results, and unwante...

BACKGROUND Treatment options for oncological diseases have been enhanced by the advent of targeted therapies. The point mutation of the BRAF gene at codon 600 (BRAF V600E) is found in several tumor entities and can be approached with selective inhibitory antibodies. The BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib has demonstrated clinical efficacy in patients with BRAF V600E-mutant melanoma brain metastases and...

Extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing organisms have captured the attention of clinicians and laboratorians and are agents of nosocomial and community onset infections (J. D. Pitout and K. B. Laupland, Lancet Infect. Dis. 8:159-166, 2008). ESBLs in many enterobacteriaceae and in nonfermenting Gram-negative organisms have been described (K. Bush and G. A. Jacoby, Antimicrob. Agents C...

No attempt will be made here to review the many articles and books on uveitis which have appeared since Volume IX of the System of Ophthalmology was published in I966. Instead I have chosen a few topics which seem to me to offer the possibility ofa greater understanding of the underlying pathological mechanisms of intraocular inflammation. Inevitably such a choice is coloured by personal intere...

This paper describes the organisation of a database for human mitochondrial control-region sequences. The data are divided into three ASCII files that contain aligned sequences from the hypervariable region I (HVRI), from the hypervariable region II (HVRII), and the available information about the individuals, from whom the sequences stem. The current collection comprises 4079 HVRI and 969 HVRI...

This analysis demonstrates the relevance and robustness of the Theory of Planned Behavior in the prediction of business start-up intentions and subsequent behavior based on longitudinal survey data (2011 and 2012; N=969) from the adult population in Austria and Finland. By doing so, the study addresses two weaknesses in current research: the limited scope of samples used in the majority of prio...
