Neuronal Lewy body-like hyaline inclusions (LBHI) and astrocytic hyaline inclusions (Ast-HI) containing mutant Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) are morphological hallmarks of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) associated with mutant SOD1. However, the mechanisms by which mutant SOD1 contributes to formation of LBHI/Ast-HI in FALS remain poorly defined. Here, we report induction of...

The aims of the present study were to investigate the respective roles that object- and viewer-based reference frames play in reorienting visual attention, and to assess their influence after unilateral brain injury. To do so, we studied 16 right hemisphere injured (RHI) and 13 left hemisphere injured (LHI) patients. We used a cueing design that manipulates the location of cues and targets rela...

Much recent work on German and English intonation has addressed the impact of information structure on prosodic patterns in terms of the focus/background partition. In contrast with stress-accent languages such as Italian, Spanish or English, French does not appear to signal focus through pitch accent assignment, rather it appears to mainly exploit prosodic edge marking for the same purposes. T...

The light-harvesting II (LHII) structural genes coding for the (B800-B850 complex) beta- and alpha-polypeptides have been cloned and the nucleotide and deduced polypeptide sequences have been determined. This completes the sequencing of all seven structural genes coding for the structural polypeptides of the photosynthetic apparatus that bind the pigments and cofactors participating in the prim...

. Periodically conducting a benchmark test with estimated uncertainty is important to improve the quality of resistance predictions and understand influence instrumentation, testing procedures analysis techniques. The LHI-007 Ro-Ro Ferry ship model, made available by Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN), was used for from 2010 2018 at Indonesian Hydrodynamic Laboratory. Comparisons w...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the acoustic, articulatory and perceptual relevance of the Accentual Phrase (AP) in French. The AP is the lowest level of the hierarchical model of French intonation proposed by Jun and Fougeron [7]. A corpus of 22 sentences, each likely to yield 3 APs, was recorded for 4 native French speakers. Our first aim was to describe the acoustic properties of th...

Liveability is an indispensable component in future city planning and practically linked with the health status of individuals communities. However, there was nor comprehensive universal district-level framework for assessing liveability due to geospatial social discrepancies among different countries. In this study, using Hong Kong, a highly dense international as example, Health Index (LHI-HK...

Abstract A technique for model initialization using three-dimensional radar reflectivity data has been developed and applied within the NOAA 13-km Rapid Refresh (RAP) 3-km High-Resolution (HRRR) regional forecast systems. This enabled first assimilation of operational models, critical especially more accurate short-range prediction convective storms. For RAP, uses a diabatic digital filter (DFI...
