Bodleian Library, MS. Germ. e. 22. The Christ Child in the Host
(Informa UK Limited, 2017)This paper presents a miniature from a sixteenth-century prayer book originating from the Strasbourg Dominican nunnery St Nikolaus in Undis it in its historical and devotional context. The study particularly emphasizes the ... -
Body and Mind in Nineteenth‑Century Clinical Medicine: Some Clinical Origins of the Neurosis Construct
(Johns Hopkins University Press, 1989) -
Body fat, energy balance and estradiol levels: a study based on hormonal profiles from complete menstrual cycles
(Oxford University Press, 2008)BACKGROUND: Female fecundity is regulated by nutritional status. Although widely cited, this hypothesis is not strongly supported by empirical data from non-obese, healthy women of reproductive age. METHODS: Healthy, ... -
Body Fatness During Childhood and Adolescence and Incidence of Breast Cancer in Premenopausal Women: A Prospective Cohort Study
(BioMed Central, 2005)Introduction: Body mass index (BMI) during adulthood is inversely related to the incidence of premenopausal breast cancer, but the role of body fatness earlier in life is less clear. We examined prospectively the relation ... -
Body-Mass Index and Mortality Risk in US Blacks Compared to Whites
(2013)Objective: To compare body-mass index (BMI)-related mortality risk in US Blacks vs. Whites as the relationship appears to differ across race/ethnicity groups. Design and Methods We pooled cross-sectional surveys of nationally ... -
Bohemians Before Bohemianism
(Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study, 2006) -
Boiling Bloody Stones’: The Kinetics of the Body and Soul amongst the Inca.
(Peabody Museum Press, 2011) -
Bond and Stock Returns in a Simple Exchange Model
(MIT Press, 1986)This paper studies asset pricing in a general equilibrium representative agent exchange model. The assumptions of isoelastic period utility and lognormal endowment allow the derivation of closed-form solutions for asset ... -
Bond Order in Two-Dimensional Metals with Antiferromagnetic Exchange Interactions
(American Physical Society (APS), 2013)We present an unrestricted Hartree-Fock computation of charge-ordering instabilities of two-dimensional metals with antiferromagnetic exchange interactions, allowing for arbitrary ordering wave vectors and internal wave ... -
Bond-operator theory of doped antiferromagnets: From Mott insulators with bond-centered charge order to superconductors with nodal fermions
(American Physical Society, 2001)The ground states and excitations of two-dimensional insulating and doped Mott insulators are described by a bond-operator formalism. While the method represents the degrees of freedom of an arbitrary antiferromagnet ... -
Bondi Accretion and the Problem of the Missing Isolated Neutron Stars
(American Astronomical Society, 2003)A large number of neutron stars (NSs), similar to10(9), populate the Galaxy, but only a tiny fraction of them is observable during the short radio pulsar lifetime. The majority of these isolated NSs, too cold to be detectable ... -
Bondi Flow from a Slowly Rotating Hot Atmosphere
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2011)A supermassive black hole in the nucleus of an elliptical galaxy at the centre of a cool-core group or cluster of galaxies is immersed in hot gas. Bondi accretion should occur at a rate determined by the properties of the ... -
Bone Marrow–on–a–Chip Replicates Hematopoietic Niche Physiology in Vitro
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014)Current in vitro hematopoiesis models fail to demonstrate the cellular diversity and complex functions of living bone marrow; hence, most translational studies relevant to the hematologic system are conducted in live ... -
Bone Mineral Density of the Spine in 11,898 Chinese Infants and Young Children: A Cross-Sectional Study
(Public Library of Science, 2013)Background: Bone mineral density (BMD) increases progressively during childhood and adolescence and is affected by various genetic and environmental factors. The aim of this study was to establish reference values for ... -
The Bones of the Milky Way
(American Astronomical Society, 2013)The very long, thin infrared dark cloud "Nessie" is even longer than had been previously claimed, and an analysis of its Galactic location suggests that it lies directly in the Milky Way’s mid-plane, tracing out a highly ... -
Bonobos Exhibit Delayed Development of Social Behavior and Cognition Relative to Chimpanzees
(Elsevier, 2010)Phenotypic changes between species can occur when evolution shapes development. Here, we tested whether differences in the social behavior and cognition of bonobos and chimpanzees derive from shifts in their ontogeny, ...
