Apoptosis and hepatitis C virus infection in renal transplant recipients
(2008)Hepatocellular injury in renal transplant recipients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains unclear. The suppressed immune response, in combination with increased viremia levels, provides a unique setting for the ...

The better of two evils? Evidence that children exhibiting continuous conduct problems high or low on callous-unemotional traits score on opposite directions on physiological and behavioral measures of fear
(Cambridge University Press, 2015)The present study examines whether heterogeneous groups of children identified based on their longitudinal scores on conduct problems (CP) and callous-unemotional (CU) traits differ on physiological and behavioral measures ...

Childhood callous-unemotional traits moderate the relation between parenting distress and conduct problems over time
(2014)The present short-term longitudinal study examines the bidirectional effects among paternal-reported and maternal-reported involvement, distress and conduct-problems (CP) in children ages 7-12 years with callous-unemotional ...

Chronic Self-Consciousness and Its Effects on Cognitive Performance, Physiology, and Self-Reported Anxiety
(University of North Carolina Dept of Psychology, 2005)Self-focused attention, as induced in the lab, facilitates task performance in some instances and inhibits it in others. Less is know about the effects of trait self-consciousness on performance. The present study examines ...

Classification capacity of a modular neural network implementing neurally inspired architecture and training rules
(2004)A three-layer neural network (NN) with novel adaptive architecture has been developed. The hidden layer of the network consists of slabs of single neuron models, where neurons within a slab-but not between slabs- have the ...

Clinicopathological study of metallothionein immunohistochemical expression, in benign, borderline and malignant ovarian epithelial tumors
(2006)Metallothioneins (MTs) are a family of cystein-rich metal-binding proteins, which are expressed in normal cells during fetal and postnatal life but also in a variety of human neoplasms. MT expression in human tumors has ...

Delivery of molecular and nanoscale medicine to tumors: Transport barriers and strategies
(2011)Tumors are similar to organs, with unique physiology giving rise to an unusual set of transport barriers to drug delivery. Cancer therapy is limited by nonuniform drug delivery via blood vessels, inhomogeneous drug transport ...
