Psychological maladjustment and its relation to academic achievement, parental expectations, satisfaction were studied in a cross-national sample of 1,386 American, 1,633 Chinese, 1,247 Japanese eleventh-grade students. 5 indices included measures stress, depressed mood, anxiety, aggression, somatic complaints. Asian students reported higher levels expectation lower concerning achievement than their American peers. Nevertheless, less fewer complaints did Chinese aggressive feelings...
The accuracies of ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT) for determining tumor invasion the chest wall in lung cancer were compared a retrospective study 120 patients. US findings evaluated preoperatively according to following criteria: disruption pleura, extension through wall, fixation during breathing. CT with obtuse angle mass pleural surface, more than 3 cm contact visible thickening associated mass. Chest was judged as positive when at least two three present either...

Miamiensis avidus is a parasitic pathogen responsible for scuticociliatosis, lethal infection affecting marine fish worldwide, including Japanese flounder. Immunisation with formalin-killed M. has shown promise in inducing protective immunity, positioning it as potential vaccine candidate against scuticociliatosis. However, challenges such the high cost of producing sufficient cells and inconsistent quality due to lack cryopreservation methods hinder its development. In this study, we...

We have cloned and characterized the troponin C gene, pat-10 of nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. At amino acid level is most similar to Drosophila (45% identity) cardiac vertebrates. Expression studies demonstrate that this expressed in body wall muscle throughout life animal. Later, vulval muscles anal also express isoform. The structural gene for mutations lead animals arrest as twofold paralyzed embryos late development. sequenced two both had identical gene; one changes D64 N other W153...
Abstract Turbot iridovirus (TBIV), a member of the genus Megalocytivirus in family Iridoviridae, was isolated from diseased turbot, Psetta maximus (L.), Korea 2003. In this study, experimental infection Japanese flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus (Temminck & Schlegel), and rock bream, Oplegnathus fasciatus with TBIV performed to evaluate viral susceptibility these fish species. After virus exposure, mortalities turbot reared at 22 25 °C were 60% 100%, respectively, suggesting that is...
