Mechanisms that account for treatment effects are poorly understood. The current study examined processes that may underlie treatment outcomes of an attachment-based intervention (Connect) for parents of pre-teens and teens with serious behavior problems. Parents (N = 540) in a non-randomized trial reported on their teen's functioning prior to and following treatment. Results confirmed signific...

The authors examined heterogeneity in risk for externalizing symptoms in children of alcoholic parents, as it may inform the search for entry points into an antisocial pathway to alcoholism. That is, they tested whether the number of alcoholic parents in a family, the comorbid subtype of parental alcoholism, and the gender of the child predicted trajectories of externalizing symptoms over the e...

The parallel first–order reaction kinetic model overall nth–order used to calibrate pyrolysis parameters samples. This comparative study reve...

During the past three years experimental studies to determine the role of the immune state of the host (the mouse) in the development of antigenic variants of influenza virus type A have been made. At the present time, seven successive generations of antigenic variants of influenza A PR8-S virus, each derived from the previous one by serial passage in the lungs of mice immunized with the homolo...

The aim of this study was to determine the presence of genes coding for alpha (cpalpha), beta (cpbeta), epsilon (epsilontx), iota (iotaA), enterotoxin (cpepsilon) and beta2 (cpbeta2) toxins in Clostridium perfringens isolates from broiler chickens and parent broiler breeder hens, using multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. The prevalence of C. perfringens in the intestinal segments a...

This study was conducted during the period from 2015 to 2017 resistance of powdery mildew in eight melon inbred lines and their hybrids order reduce losses quality yield.  Eight different genetically were selfed for six generations ensure homozygosity. They have been self-pollinated intercrossed a half diallel mating design obtain 28 2015. Thirty genotypes (8 Lines produced hybrids) evaluated r...

BACKGROUND Some caregivers who believe their children have food allergy avoid feeding certain foods to their children without proper allergy tests. Such actions made without a proper diagnosis can negatively impact the child's health and impose an unnecessary burden on the caregivers. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the caregiver quality of life (QoL) and growth in children with a pare...

Sticking together: The occupation of different sites by oxygen atoms that are produced by the dissociation of O(2) on Pd(100) is determined by the initial rotational alignment of the parent molecules. The atom locations are characterized by different chemical reactivities in the reaction with CO to form CO(2) (see picture), which are followed by synchrotron radiation (SR) experiments with a sup...
