The late-onset cerebellar ataxias (LOCAs) have largely resisted molecular diagnosis.We sequenced the genomes of six persons with autosomal dominant LOCA who were members three French Canadian families and identified a candidate pathogenic repeat expansion. We then tested for association between expansion disease in two independent case-control series - one (66 patients 209 controls) other German (228 199 controls). also genotyped 20 Australian 31 Indian index patients. assayed gene protein...
A study has been made of the time variations π–A isotherms stearic acid films at air/water interfaces using an automatic recording surface balance vertical pull type. The existence coherent below molecular areas 22 sq. Å/molecule found to be dependent on temperature, rate compression, and history compression a given film. behavior or near collapse, decrease in π with after sudden (relaxation), increase expansion (recovery) have studied.The results interpreted basis structural changes monolayer.
Knowledge translation is an essential component of the research process. The purpose this study was to examine content information coaches attain from online sport psychology resources and their use information. This also investigated differences in coaches' across experience, certification, competitive level coaches. Participants included 253 ( n males = 183; females 69) averaging 13.6 years coaching experience who varied considerably sport, income level, age athletes they coached. Results...
Recessive null variants of the slow skeletal muscle troponin T1 (TNNT1) gene are a rare cause nemaline myopathy that is fatal in infancy due to respiratory insufficiency. Muscle biopsy shows rods and fiber type disproportion. We report on 4 French Canadians with novel form recessive congenital TNNT1 core-rod myopathy.Patients underwent full clinical characterization, lower limb magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), biopsy, genetic testing. A zebrafish loss-of-function model using morpholinos was...
In this experiment, we examined whether self-observation, via video replay, coupled with the viewing of a skilled model was better for motor skill learning than use self-observation alone. Twenty-one female gymnasts participated in within design experiment which two gymnastics skills were learned. One practiced conjunction self-observation/skilled pairing and other only self-observation. The unfolded over five sessions pre-test, baseline, acquisition, retention, post-test scores obtained....
Background: Upon graduation, newly qualified speech-language therapists are expected to provide services independently. This study describes new graduates’ perceptions of their preparedness across the scope profession and explores associations between dysphagia theory clinical learning curricula with for adult paediatric service delivery.Methods: New graduates six South African universities were recruited participate in a survey by completing an electronic questionnaire exploring practise...
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a lethal disease caused by mutations in the DMD gene that encodes dystrophin. Dystrophin deficiency also impacts muscle stem cells (MuSCs), resulting impaired asymmetric cell division and myogenic commitment. Using MuSCs from patients mouse model mdx , we found PTPN1 phosphatase expression up-regulated STAT3 phosphorylation concomitantly down-regulated MuSCs. To restore STAT3-mediated signaling, examined effect of K884, novel PTPN1/2 inhibitor, on...
Abstract A sample of poly(butadiene‐ co ‐styrene), SBR, was divided into twelve fractions by precipitation from a dilute benzene solution. The intrinsic viscosities [η] and weights all the were measured, sedimentation coefficients s 0 determined for nine highest molecular weight. From values number crosslinks per molecule m , calculated each fraction. results indicated that only four weight contained crosslinked molecules. weight‐average primary (prior to crosslinking) entire sample, δ...
Velocities of exchange iodine between monolayers at the air/water interface α-iodostearic acid and potassium iodide in substrate have been measured over a range monolayer concentrations temperatures using radioactive tracer technique. The pressure–area isotherms were also determined. process was followed by measuring decrease counting rate immediately above surface. It is shown theoretically that ions released to diffuse rapidly do not contribute appreciably rate. velocity found be first...
An instrument is described for plotting, automatically, magnetization-temperature curves ferromagnetic substances. The sample placed on a torsion arm in an inhomogenous magnetic field, and the force to which it subjected opposed by torque applied wire reversible motor. shaft of motor connected Beckmann Helipot, motion converted into change emf. recorded Leeds Northrup Speedomax. temperature also controlled Data performance are given plots thermomagnetic runs Ni, Fe3O4, Fe3C shown.
Ultracentrifugal sedimentation of alkali lignin fractions revealed marked boundary spreading at low and high centrifugal fields. An analysis the gradient diagrams indicated a wide distribution coefficients ranging from 0.5 to over 400 × 10 −13 second. There was only small decrease in polydispersity on subfractionation. The distributions were continuous with single peak positive skewness. A linear relationship found between intrinsic viscosity standard deviation weight-average coefficient....
Many factors influence the quality of a romantic relationship, and there has been increasing evidence that early attachment plays vital role in adult bonds, including relationships. However, most literature focused on parent–child peer attachments with little focus sibling attachments. Using Sibling Relationship Questionnaire, we asked sample New Zealand university students to retrospectively rate relationship they had significant during their adolescence, current using Assessment Scale. We...
A workshop held at the University of Cambridge in May 2017 brought developers, researchers, knowledge brokers, and users together to discuss user-centred design decision support tools. Decision tools are designed take through logical steps towards an evidence-informed final decision. Although they may exist different forms, including on paper, generally considered be computer- (online, software) or app-based. Studies have illustrated potential value for conservation, there several papers...

Satellite cells are muscle-resident stem that maintain and repair muscle. Increasing evidence supports the contributing role of satellite in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a lethal degenerative muscle disease caused by loss dystrophin. We used single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) to determine how dystrophin deficiency impacts heterogeneity function. scRNA-seq was performed from mdx D2-mdx DMD mouse models. were disproportionally found within myogenic progenitor clusters unique enriched...
Motivation: The effects of sub-concussive head impacts are not well understood. New biomarkers needed to detect sub-concussion. Goal(s): Our goal was investigate the acute using MREPT. Approach: Fourteen soccer players were scanned with MREPT in two separate sessions after performing task either heading or kicking balls for 20 minutes. Results: Electrical conductivity measured multiple brain regions such as inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus session significantly less than that following...
