Control of goal-directed tasks is putatively carried out via the cinguloopercular (CO) and frontoparietal (FP) systems. However, it remains unclear whether these systems show dissociable moment-to-moment processing during distinct stages of a trial. Here, we characterize dynamics in the CO and FP networks in a meta-analysis of 5 decision-making tasks using fMRI, with a specialized "slow reveal"...

ion level fp-rate fn-rate fp-rate treshold Figure 3.2: The generalization steps when mining fp-safe patterns with Algorithm 1. Blue dots represent maximal patterns, gray dots are infrequent (too generic) patterns, white dots are frequent, but not maximal patterns. Arrows depict the generalization DAG of the seed patterns, where solid ones show the actual search tree and dashed ones the edges th...

Fertility is important to women and men with cancer. While options for fertility preservation (FP) are available, knowledge regarding the medical application of FP is lacking. Therefore we examined FP practices for cancer patients among reproductive endocrinologists (REs). A 36 item survey was sent to board-certified REs. 98% of respondents reported counseling women with cancer about FP options...

INTRODUCTION Fungal peritonitis (FP) is a rare but serious complication in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD), and is associated with higher morbidity, mortality. We aimed to analyze the predisposing factors, etiological agents, outcome and treatment of FP in patients with PD. METHODOLOGY We evaluated retrospectively all PD patients PD center between 2001 and 2011. Sixteen patients ...

BACKGROUND The human ability to envision the future, that is, to take a future perspective (FP), plays a key role in the justice motive and its function in transcending disadvantages and misfortunes. The present research investigated whether individual (Study 1) and situational (Study 2) differences in FP moderated the association of general belief in a just world (GBJW) with psychological resi...

Background: The evidence for the effectiveness and safety of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is inconclusive. This study determined the cost effectiveness of withdrawing fluticasone propionate (FP) in outpatients with COPD. Methods: The cost effectiveness analysis was based on a randomised, placebo controlled FP withdrawal study. After a 4 month run...

Investigations of the modulation of prostaglandin F(2alpha) receptor (FP) expression in primary cultures of human uterine myocytes showed that FP mRNA expression was reduced by progesterone, unaltered by cAMP (8-bromo cAMP or forskolin), but increased by the PKA antagonist H89. Interleukin (IL)-1beta, tumour necrosis factor-alpha and oxytocin increased FP mRNA expression and IL-6 and prostaglan...

Clinical trials of a combination therapy of an inhaled corticosteroid, fluticasone propionate (FP), with a long-acting beta2-agonist, salmeterol (Sal), have demonstrated a greater improvement in lung function and in quality of life measures after the combination compared with either component of alone. In a subanalysis of the data of the TRISTAN study, Sal/FP reduced exacerbation rates in COPD ...

OBJECTIVES To test the fetal profile (FP) line, defined as the line that passes through the anterior border of the mandible and the nasion, as a reference line for forehead and mandible anomalies. METHODS Volumes of 248 normal and 24 pathological fetuses (16-36 and 19-37 weeks' gestation, respectively) were analysed retrospectively. When the FP line passes anteriorly, across or posteriorly to...

Background Cancer survivors rate fertility as one of the most important determinants of their quality of life in the years after cancer treatment. We seek to describe the reproductive goals of women affected by gynecologic cancers and investigate their specific challenges during fertility preservation (FP) counseling. Methods Univariate & multivariate logistic regression were used for quantit...
