BackgroundPediatric solid tumor, the abnormal proliferation of solid tissues in children resulting in the formation of tumors, represent a prevailing malignant ailment among the younger population.Extensive literature highlights the inseparable association linking oral microbiome and adult tumors, but due to differences in age of onset, characteris
Study protocol for a group randomized controlled trial of a classroom-based intervention aimed at preventing early risk factors for drug abuse: integrating effectiveness and implementation research
Abstract Background While a number of preventive interventions delivered within schools have shown both short-term and long-term impact in epidemiologically based randomized field trials, programs are not often sustained with high-quality implementation over time.This study was designed to support two purposes.The first purpose was to test the effe
To look or not to look: Subliminal abrupt-onset cues influence constrained free-choice saccades
Subliminal cues have been shown to capture attention and modulate manual response behaviour but their impact on eye movement behaviour is not well-studied.In two experiments, we examined if subliminal cues influence constrained free-choice saccades and if this influence is under strategic control as a function of task-relevancy of the cues.On each
The remote allosteric control of Orai channel gating.
Calcium signals drive an endless array of cellular responses including secretion, contraction, transcription, cell division, and growth.The ubiquitously expressed Orai family of plasma membrane (PM) ion channels mediate Ca2+ entry signals triggered by the Ca2+ sensor Stromal Interaction Molecule (STIM) proteins FOAM CONDITIONER of the endoplasmic r
A residue management machine for chopping paddy residues in combine harvested paddy field
Abstract Nowadays, Combine Harvesters are the most commonly used device for harvesting crops; as a result, a large amount of plant material and crop residue is concentrated into a narrow band of plant material that exits the combine, challenging the residue management task.This paper aims to develop a crop residue management machine that can chop p
