We have recently become aware that there are a number of issues with figures from our 2010 Cell Cycle article entitled " Regulation of activity and function of the p52 NF-κB subunit following DNA damage " (Barré B, et al. In Figures 1A, 2D, and 4B there are a number of duplicated or partially duplicated images of gels. The first author, Benjamin Barré, performed the experiments and assembled th...

Ideal biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) should correlate with accepted measures of pathology in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF); they should also correlate with, or predict, future clinical decline, and should be readily measured in hundreds to thousands of subjects. Here we explored the utility of automated 3D maps of the lateral ventricles as a possible biomarker of AD. We used our multi-a...

Activation calculations have been performed for the LIBRA reactor. Replacing HT-9 by low activation modified HT-9 increases the activity by a factor of 2.5 at shutdown while the long term activity drops by a factor of 25. The reflector is classified as Class C low level waste when modified HT-9 is used. Using HT-9 will require deep geological burial for the LIBRA radwaste. The activity produced...

Religious studies of fertility typically focus on the effect of religious affiliation on fertility; the role of religiosity in determining fertility remains overlooked. Meanwhile, most studies focus on studying female fertility; whether religion and religiosity have significantly different impacts on men’s and women’s fertility rarely has been examined. To fill these gaps, this study uses data ...

OBJECTIVE To determine the utility of the current diameter criterion of larger than 6 mm of the ABCDE acronym for the early diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma. DESIGN Cohort study. SETTING Dermatology hospital-based clinics and community practice offices. Patients A total of 1323 patients undergoing skin biopsies of 1657 pigmented lesions suggestive of melanoma. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE The maxi...

From perturbation theory, Green’s functions are known for providing a simple and convenient access to the (complete) spectrum of atoms and ions. Having these functions available, they may help carry out perturbation expansions to any order beyond the first one. For most realistic potentials, however, the Green’s functions need to be calculated numerically since an analytic form is known only fo...

INTRODUCTION Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) as an add-on modality to medical treatment has been recommended in national guidelines for patients acutely admitted with chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) exacerbation and hypercapnic respiratory failure. To address concerns regarding whether NIV is used appropriately, we conducted an audit of COPD patients admitted to a university hospit...

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) causes a mosquitoborne viral zoonosis that is becoming increasingly important to public health in east and south Asia. Although JEV is primarily associated with reproductive failure in swine, JEV infection can cause fever and headache in humans and is associated with aseptic meningitis and encephalitis. The exact mode of transmission, including host range and p...

The linear and the nonlinear stability of disturbances that propagate along the attachment line of a three-dimensional boundary layer is considered. The spatially evolving disturbances in the boundary layer are computed by direct numerical simulation (DNS) of the unsteady, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Disturbances are introduced either by forcing at the in ow or by applying suction a...
