Endothelial chemokines are instrumental for integrin-mediated lymphocyte adhesion and transendothelial migration (TEM). By dissecting how chemokines trigger lymphocyte integrins to support shear-resistant motility on and across cytokine-stimulated endothelial barriers, we found a critical role for high-affinity (HA) LFA-1 integrin in lymphocyte crawling on activated endothelium. Endothelial-pre...

The transition from crawling to walking requires infants to relinquish their status as experienced, highly skilled crawlers in favor of being inexperienced, lowskilled walkers. Yet infants willingly undergo this developmental transition, despite incurring costs of shaky steps, frequent falls, and inability to gauge affordances for action in their new upright posture. Why do infants persist with...

Modern web technologies, like AJAX result in more responsive and usable web applications, sometimes called Rich Internet Applications (RIAs). Traditional crawling techniques are not sufficient for crawling RIAs. We present a new strategy for crawling RIAs. This new strategy is designed based on the concept of “Model-Based Crawling” introduced in [3] and uses statistics accumulated during the cr...

purpose : to evaluate the efficacy of autologous plasmin in pediatric vitrectomy and to report the anatomic outcomes of autologous plasmin assisted pediatric vitrectomy methods : in an interventional prospective study, thirty-four pediatric patients with vitreoretinal disorders who needed vitrectomy during 2008 to 2010, included in the study. the patients were divided into two groups: the retin...

To document the trajectory of motor and vocal behaviors in real and developmental time, researchers observed infants at each of 4 biweekly naturalistic play sessions over the transition to crawling. An exhaustive and mutually exclusive coding scheme documented every vocalization and posture. Odds ratios of the likelihood of a given posture-vocalization dyad revealed that vocalization and crawli...

The World Wide Web is an interlinked collection of billions of documents formatted using HTML. Due to the growing and dynamic nature of the web, it has become a challenge to traverse all URLs in the web documents and handle these URLs, so it has become imperative to parallelize a crawling process. The crawler process is further being parallelized in the form ecology of crawler workers that para...

There is a great amount of information on the web that can not be accessed by conventional crawler engines. This portion of the web is usually known as the Hidden Web. To be able to deal with this problem, it is necessary to solve two tasks: crawling the client-side and crawling the server-side hidden web. In this paper we present an architecture and a set of related techniques for accessing th...

Preparing the books to read every day is enjoyable for many people. However, there are still many people who also don't like reading. This is a problem. But, when you can support others to start reading, it will be better. One of the books that can be recommended for new readers is distributed search by constrained agents algorithms performance communication advanced information and knowledge p...

The crawling wave experiment was developed to capture a shear wave induced moving interference pattern that is created by two harmonic vibration sources oscillating at different but almost the same frequencies. Using the vibration sonoelastography technique, the spectral variance image reveals a moving interference pattern. It has been shown that the speed of the moving interference pattern, i....

Locomotion in segmented animals is thought to be based on the coupling of "unit burst generators," but the biological nature of the unit burst generator has been revealed in only a few animal systems. We determined that dopamine (DA), a universal modulator of motor activity, is sufficient to activate fictive crawling in the medicinal leech, and can exert its actions within the smallest division...
