OBJECTIVE Persons with Huntington’s disease (HD) often have communication difficulties and cognitive impairments, making mental health assessment difficult. Informants close to the patient are often included in assessments. The authors investigated effects of informant presence during assessment of persons with HD. METHODS Data for four subsamples…[Read more]

These results can facilitate the evaluations of O3 effect on the carbon-sink capacity and productivity of forest.Severe haze episodes in cold season in Beijing have been mitigated greatly during the last decade. However, the changes in aerosol chemistry as responses to the large reductions in gaseous precursors during the two phases of clean air…[Read more]

Objective To study the clinicopathological significance of cyclin D1 expression in Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD). Methods Seventeen cases of RDD were evaluated by HE, immunohistochemical staining and molecular genetic analysis. Expression of cyclin D1 was compared between RDDs and control group that included 29 cases of reactive histiocytosis, 9…[Read more]

1 0.82, 95% CI 0.70-0.97], isoflavones (0.86, 0.75-0.99) and flavanones (0.83, 0.69-1.00) were associated with a lower risk of hypertension in the middle-aged cohort. In the reproductive-aged cohort, higher intakes of flavanols (0.70, 0.49-0.99) were associated with a lower risk of hypertension. Key foods that provided these flavonoids were…[Read more]

Time-restricted feeding could be used as a nondrug intervention to prevent obesity and accelerate growth in adolescents.A photochemical C-N coupling of aryl halides with nitroarenes is demonstrated for the first time. Catalyzed by a NiII complex in the absence of any external photosensitizer, readily available nitroarenes undergo coupling with a…[Read more]

improvement. Discharge echocardiography showed normal biventricular function and an intact atrial baffle with no venoatrial or atrioventricular obstruction.

We successfully performed an intra-atrial switch procedure for isolated ventricular inversion in a neonate. Long-term follow-up will be necessary to ensure the maintenance of optimal…[Read more]

Invertebrates such as Drosophila melanogaster have proven to be a valuable model organism for studies of the nervous system. In order to control neuronal activity, optogenetics has evolved as a powerful technique enabling non-invasive stimulation using light. This requires light sources that can deliver patterns of light with high temporal and…[Read more]
