OBJECTIVE To assess school-age cognitive and achievement outcomes in children with prenatal cocaine exposure, controlling for confounding drug and environmental factors. STUDY DESIGN At age 9 years, 371 children (192 cocaine exposure [CE]; 179 non-cocaine exposure [NCE]) were assessed for IQ and school achievement in a longitudinal, prospective study from birth. An extensive number of confoun...

Younger and adults tend to consume energy drinks due the benefit received as promoted by manufacturer. This retrospective, cross-sectional study aimed investigate factors associated with energy-drink consumption in a group of construction workers Indonesia. Literate who have consumed any brand drink at least once per week were recruited. Demographic data health literacy self-reported. The short...

Early life stress may have a lasting impact on the developmental programming of the dopamine (DA) system implicated in psychosis. Early adversity could promote resilience by calibrating the prefrontal stress-regulatory dopaminergic neurotransmission to improve the individual's fit with the predicted stressful environment. Aberrant reactivity to such match between proximal and distal environment...

Title of dissertation: GLOBAL OPTIMIZATION OF FINITE MIXTURE MODELS Jeffrey W. Heath Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Dissertation directed by: Professor Michael Fu Robert H. Smith School of Business & Professor Wolfgang Jank Robert H. Smith School of Business The Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm is a popular and convenient tool for the estimation of Gaussian mixture models and its natural ext...

Objective(s): Harmful effects of alcohol on brain function including cognitive phenomena are well known. Damage to gut microbiota is linked to neurological disorders. Evidence indicates that intestinal flora can be strengthened by probiotic bacteria. In this study, we evaluated the effect of probiotics administration on LTP induction in rats receiving ethanol.<em...

We seek to understand and utilize environmental and deliberately produced electromagnetic (EM) signals in the coastal ocean. Our studies are undertaken to provide a means for communicating with and guiding autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) and other autonomous sensor systems, such as moored instruments. We include various EM influences in our models such as environmental noise , seabed electr...
