Gold Nanorods:  Electrochemical Synthesis and Optical Properties

Aqueous solutions containing a high yield of suspended gold nanorods have been successfully synthesized via an electrochemical method. The control of preparing gold nanorods wit...

Comparing Functional (PET) Images: The Assessment of Significant Change

Statistical parametric maps (SPMs) are potentially powerful ways of localizing differences in regional cerebral activity. This potential is limited by uncertainties in assessing...

Enhanced Neurofibrillary Degeneration in Transgenic Mice Expressing Mutant Tau and APP

JNPL3 transgenic mice expressing a mutant tau protein, which develop neurofibrillary tangles and progressive motor disturbance, were crossed with Tg2576 transgenic mice expressi...

Using Linear Algebra for Intelligent Information Retrieval

Currently, most approaches to retrieving textual materials from scientific databases depend on a lexical match between words in users’ requests and those in or assigned to docum...

Robust associations of four new chromosome regions from genome-wide analyses of type 1 diabetes

Weak interactions at very high energies: The role of the Higgs-boson mass

We give an $S$-matrix-theoretic demonstration that if the Higgs-boson mass exceeds ${M}_{c}={(8\ensuremath{\pi}\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}{G}_{F})}^{\frac{1}{2}}$, parital-wave unitarity...

A Systematic Survey of Loss-of-Function Variants in Human Protein-Coding Genes

Defective Gene Detective Identifying genes that give rise to diseases is one of the major goals of sequencing human genomes. However, putative loss-of-function genes, which are ...

Guidelines for investigating causality of sequence variants in human disease

Comparison of MRI criteria at first presentation to predict conversion to clinically definite multiple sclerosis

We compared MRI criteria used to predict conversion of suspected multiple sclerosis to clinically definite multiple sclerosis. Seventy-four patients with clinically isolated neu...

Reactive Oxygen Intermediates Mediate a Systemic Signal Network in the Establishment of Plant Immunity

Model Uncertainty, Data Mining and Statistical Inference

This paper takes a broad, pragmatic view of statistical inference to include all aspects of model formulation. The estimation of model parameters traditionally assumes that a mo...

Techniques used for the isolation and characterization of extracellular vesicles: results of a worldwide survey

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) represent an important mode of intercellular communication. Research in this field has grown rapidly in the last few years, and there is a plethora ...
