The ability of gene transfer with the pore-forming subunit of the human maxi-K channel (hSlo) to ameliorate the decline in erectile capacity commensurate with 12-24 wk of streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetes was examined in 181 Fischer-344 rats. A 2-mo period of STZ-diabetes was induced before gene transfer, and erectile capacity was evaluated by measuring the intracavernous pressure response (ICP) to...

We present high-speed optical photometry from SAAO and SALT on the black hole LMXB \MAXI (ASSASN-18ey), some of it simultaneous with NICER, Swift Insight-HXMT X-ray coverage. detect Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (QPOs) that move to higher frequencies as outburst progresses, tracking both frequency evolution similar QPOs previously reported. Correlated X-ray/optical data reveal a complex pattern l...

The upcoming vogue of climate assemblies and other forms mini-publics are to give citizens a central role in policy-making break the political impasse. Yet face challenges environments too, such as co-option, favoring expert opinions, losing touch with broader public. To remedy pitfalls, recent papers have argued combine synchronous deliberations small groups online participation procedures for...
