Recent years have seen intense interest in the development of point-of-care nucleic acid diagnostic technologies to address the scaling limitations of laboratory-based approaches. Chief among these are combinations of isothermal amplification approaches with CRISPR-based detection and read outs of target products. Here, we contribute to the growing body of rapid,...
Materials made from covalently crosslinked polymer networks are ubiquitous in everyday life but are difficult to process at the end of their life cycle. New materials designed with sustainability in mind will play a critical role in reducing the detrimental effects of plastic waste build-up. Functionalized triazines such as 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine...
Circadian rhythms — physiological, behavioral, and metabolic oscillations with an approximate 24-h period — are controlled by an evolutionarily conserved set of core clock genes operating at the transcriptional and protein level. Entrainable by Zeitgebers (external environmental stimuli such as light, temperature, and food) that modulate time-of-day specific functions, the...
Background
Over-testing and overtreatment in older adults may lead to harm. Clinician decision support redirecting attention to possible harms and engaging social and reputational concerns might reduce overuse.
Methods
We performed an 18-month pragmatic cluster-randomized trial in 60 primary care practices with 371 clinicians, comparing behavioral-science-informed point-of-care clinical decision support...
This study is in consideration of the spread of COVID-19, the related various government responses, and how these responses and other demographic variables affected the spread and severity of the virus on a domestic (United States) and international level. During the last few months, the virus has spread from its...
Cell state transitions are often triggered by large changes in the
concentrations of transcription factors and therefore large differences
in their stoichiometric ratios. Whether cells can elicit transitions using
modest changes in the ratios of co-expressed factors is unclear. Here,
we investigate how cells in the Drosophila eye resolve state...
Pediatric participants performed a series of trials that involved stepping up onto a raised platform. Body weight load was modulated during this task from -20% to +15% in 5% increments (excluding -5%). Outcome measures include peak hip abduction moments, peak support moments, and individual hip, knee, and ankle percent contributions...
Learning to discriminate between different sensory stimuli is essential for survival. In rodents, the olfactory bulb, which contributes to odor discrimination via pattern separation, exhibits extensive structural synaptic plasticity involving the formation and removal of synaptic spines, even in adult animals. The network connectivity resulting from this plasticity is...
