Acute myeloid leukemia in a patient with constitutional 47,XXY karyotype
(Elsevier, 2015)Klinefelter syndrome (KS), a 47,XXY chromosomal abnormality, has been shown to be associated with a number of malignancies, but has not been linked to acute leukemias to date. We present a case of a 54-year-old male diagnosed ... -
Acute myocardial infarction activates distinct inflammation and proliferation pathways in circulating monocytes, prior to recruitment, and identified through conserved transcriptional responses in mice and humans
(Oxford University Press, 2015)Aims Monocytes play critical roles in tissue injury and repair following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Specifically targeting inflammatory monocytes in experimental models leads to reduced infarct size and improved ... -
Acute Stress Reduces Reward Responsiveness: Implications for Depression
(Elsevier, 2006)Background: Stress, one of the strongest risk factors for depression, has been linked to "anbedonic" behavior and dysfunctional reward-related neural circuitry in preclinical models. Methods: To test if acute stress reduces ... -
Acute Stress Selectively Reduces Reward Sensitivity
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2013)Stress may promote the onset of psychopathology by disrupting reward processing. However, the extent to which stress impairs reward processing, rather than incentive processing more generally, is unclear. To evaluate the ... -

Adakitic Dacites Formed by Intracrustal Crystal Fractionation of Water-Rich Parent Magmas at Nevado de Longav Volcano (36.2 Degrees S; Andean Southern Volcanic Zone, Central Chile)
(Oxford University Press, 2007)The mid-Holocene eruptive products of Nevado de Longav volcano (362S, Chile) are the only reported occurrence of adakitic volcanic rocks in the Quaternary Andean Southern Volcanic Zone (3346S). Dacites of this volcano are ... -

Adaptation and Diversification on Islands
(Nature Publishing Group, 2009)Charles Darwin's travels on HMS <i>Beagle</i> taught him that islands are an important source of evidence for evolution. Because many islands are young and have relatively few species, evolutionary adaptation and species ... -
Adaptation and generalization in acceleration-dependent force fields
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2005)Any passive rigid inertial object that we hold in our hand, e.g., a tennis racquet, imposes a field of forces on the arm that depends on limb position, velocity, and acceleration. A fundamental characteristic of this field ... -
Adaptation at the output of the chemotaxis signalling pathway
(2012)In the bacterial chemotaxis network, receptor clusters process input1–3, and flagellar motors generate output4. Receptor and motor complexes are coupled by the diffusible protein CheY-P. Receptor output (the steady-state ... -
Adaptation Kinetics in Bacterial Chemotaxis
(American Society for Microbiology, 1983)Cells of Escherichia coli, tethered to glass by a single flagellum, were subjected to constant flow of a medium containing the attractant alpha-methyl-DL-aspartate. The concentration of this chemical was varied with a ... -
Adaptation of CRISPR nucleases for eukaryotic applications
(Elsevier BV, 2016)Glucan phosphatases are essential for normal starch degradation in plants and glycogen metabolism in mammals. Here we develop two chromogenic methods for the detection of glucan phosphatase activity in situ after non ... -
Adaptation of US maize to temperature variations
(Nature Publishing Group, 2013)High temperatures are associated with reduced crop yields1, 2, and predictions for future warming3 have raised concerns regarding future productivity and food security4, 5, 6, 7, 8. However, the extent to which adaptation ... -
Adapting Sequence Models for Sentence Correction
(Association for Computational Linguistics, 2017)In a controlled experiment of sequence-to-sequence approaches for the task of sentence correction, we find that character-based models are generally more effective than word-based models and models that encode subword ... -
Adapting to Adaptations: Behavioural Strategies that are Robust to Mutations and Other Organisational-Transformations
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016)Genetic mutations, infection by parasites or symbionts, and other events can transform the way that an organism’s internal state changes in response to a given environment. We use a minimalistic computational model to ... -
Adapting to Agents' Personalities in Negotiation
(2005)To establish cooperative relationships, agents must be willing to engage in helpful behavior and to keep their commitments with agents who reciprocate this behavior. However, in uncertain and dynamic environments, it is ... -
An Adaptive Agent for Negotiating with People in Different Cultures
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2011)The rapid dissemination of technology such as the Internet across geographical and ethnic lines is opening up opportunities for computer agents to negotiate with people of diverse cultural and organizational affiliations. ... -
Adaptive Algorithms for Sparse Nonlinear Channel Estimation
(2009)In this paper, we consider the estimation of sparse nonlinear communication channels. Transmission over the channels is represented by sparse Volterra models that incorporate the effect of Power Amplifiers. Channel estimation ...
