The growth of biomedical research over the previous decades has been accompanied by an increase in the number, complexity and diversity of experimental animals developed as research tools, and inbred mice are some of the most widely used. However, thus far, no inbred mice have exhibited strong radioresistance for use in radiation‑damage research. To develop a radioresistant mouse model, a femal...

Since its introduction into cell biology by Curtis in 1964, interference reflection microscopy (IRM) has been used by an increasing number of researchers to study cell-substrate interactions in living cells in culture. With the use of antiflex objectives, high-contrast IRM images can now be readily obtained. From the different theories on image formation in IRM that have been put forward, it ca...

A retrospective study was done to compare the success rates of teeth with three different root end filling materials. The materials studied were SuperEBA, IRM, and zinc-free high-copper spherical amalgam. Radiographs of 488 cases from two geographically distinct offices were used, with the recall period ranging from a minimum of 6 months to a maximum of 10 yr. The cases in each office were exam...

Stimulus attributes that inXuence a recently reported illusion called “illusory rebound motion” (IRM; [Hsieh, P.-J., Caplovitz, G. P., & Tse, P. U. (2005). Illusory rebound motion and the motion continuity heuristic. Vision Research, 45, 2972–2985.]) are described. When a bar alternates between two diVerent colors, IRM can be observed to traverse the bar as if the color were shooting back and f...

Inlined Reference Monitor (IRM) is the preferred enforcement mechanism for historybased access control policies. IRM enforcement injects monitoring code into the binary of an untrusted program in order to track its execution history. The injected code denies access when execution deviates from the policy. The viability of IRM enforcement is predicated on the ability of the binary rewriting elem...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene polymorphisms are associated with an increased risk for Idiopathic Recurrent Miscarriage (IRM) in the Turkish population and to evaluate the association between Nitric Oxide (NO) levels and eNOS gene polymorphisms in women with IRM. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 120 Turkish women were enrolled in this study in four...

A technique for elegantly expressing In-lined Reference Monitor (IRM) certification as model-checking is presented and implemented. In-lined Reference Monitors (IRM’s) enforce software security policies by in-lining dynamic security guards into untrusted binary code. Certifying IRM systems provide strong formal guarantees for such systems by verifying that the instrumented code produced by the ...

Interpersonal reality monitoring (IRM) refers to our ability to evaluate whether other people's memories reflect real or imagined events. The current work examined IRM and whether or not it can be affected by training and feedback. We found that people are better than chance and that the ability to accurately make this judgement can be improved or reduced with appropriate and inappropriate trai...
