Campylobacter jejuni is a major cause of human gastroenteritis worldwide; however, its pathogenesis is not understood well. Cj0977, a cytoplasmic protein regulated by the flagellar promoter s28, and JlpA, a cell-surface ...

Robot-assisted procedures are perpetually evolving due to potential improvement in patient management and reduction in the overall cost. Integration of an imaging modality intraoperatively further strengthens these procedures ...

High Gleason grade prostate cancers are aggressive. Currently, the major target for treatment is the androgen receptor. Recent literature points towards a tumor suppressive role of estrogen receptor β (ERβ), which has a ...

Objective This retrospective longitudinal study investigated the relationship between readiness to change (The Transtheoretical Model of Stages of Change), parenting (e.g., parenting style, practices, and stress), and the ...

Ligand-activated transcription factors are a diverse group of proteins that are involved a variety of physiological processes. The purpose of these studies was to investigate the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) knockout ...

Variational principles for finding eigenvalues, and associated eigenvectors, for symmetric matrices and compact self-adjoint linear operators have been studied by many authors for some time now. Here we shall introduce ...

Much research has been undertaken to understand the relative influences of a variety of conditions and contexts on the success of college students in general. Relatively less work has been done, however, to understand such ...

Over the past decade, many colleges and universities have worked to develop stronger models to emphasize technology integration in the classroom. To remain effective it is periodically necessary to ask Faculty and School ...

Theoretical ecologists have long strived to explain how the persistence of populations depends on biotic and abiotic factors and have proposed various models to predict the long time behavior of biological populations. We ...

The inverse scattering problem has enormous importance both for practical and theoretical applications, such as seismic exploration, nondestructive testing, and medical imaging. Based on the early work of Jost and Kohn ...
