Different types of history-dependent behavior one might observe. by Denise M. Wolf (272435)

“…This gives the observer the impression of first an increase in information and memory and then a decrease as the trajectories approach their long-term values. d,e) If measurements are made on single cells rather than on averaged populations (as we did in this paper), history-dependent distributions may be observed. d) Short-term stochastic memory. …”

Distinct decoy effects in two groups of subjects identified by clustering based on all decoy-effect indices. by Mehran Spitmaan (7495811)

“…Subjects in the first group (N = 72) selected the target with a probability larger than 0.5 for all decoy types (increased risk aversion), whereas subjects in the second group (N = 58) selected the target with a probability smaller than 0.5 (decreased risk aversion). …”

Effect of PEG derivatisation on the dissociation rate of E9:Im9 and activity of E9. by Oliver E. Farrance (334648)

Sliding Friction of Amorphous Asperities on Crystalline Substrates: Scaling with Contact Radius and Substrate Thickness by Joseph M. Monti (9673650)

“…The competition between disorder and elastic deformation is predicted to limit structural superlubricity and produce a constant frictional stress for <i>a</i> larger than a characteristic domain size λ that depends on the ratio of the shear modulus <i>G</i> to the magnitude of interfacial shear stresses τ₀. …”

Data_Sheet_1_α-Chaconine Affects the Apoptosis, Mechanical Barrier Function, and Antioxidant Ability of Mouse Small Intestinal Epithelial Cells.docx by Yuhua He (409995)

“…The results showed that α-chaconine significantly decreased cell proliferation rate, increased apoptosis rate, decreased transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) value, and increased alkaline phosphatase (AKP) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities, and there were interactions between α-chaconine concentration and incubation time. α-Chaconine significantly reduced the relative and mRNA expressions of genes coding tight junction proteins zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) and occludin, increased malondialdehyde (MDA) content, decreased total glutathione (T-GSH) content, reduced the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase (γ-GCS) and the mRNA expressions of SOD, CAT, GSH-Px, and γ-GCS genes. …”

Human <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i> infection is driven by eco-social interactions in rural communities of the Argentine Chaco by Maria del Pilar Fernández (8129937)

“…<i>cruzi</i> prior to the implementation of an insecticide spraying campaign (2008) was 29.0% (N = 1,373 in 301 households), and was twice as large in Qom than creoles. Using generalized linear mixed models, human seropositive cases significantly increased with infected triatomine abundance, having a seropositive household co-inhabitant and household social vulnerability (a multidimensional index of poverty), and significantly decreased with increasing host availability in sleeping quarters (an index summarizing the number of domestic hosts for <i>T</i>. …”

Emollient use alters skin barrier and microbes in infants at risk for developing atopic dermatitis by Martin Glatz (4898593)

“…<i>salivarius</i> proportion appeared higher in infants without AD compared to infants with AD. A decrease in <i>S</i>. <i>salivarius</i> abundance was further identified in a separate larger population of older children demonstrating an inverse correlation between AD severity at sampling sites and <i>S</i>. …”
