The corpus collosum is the large band of fibers that connects two cerebral hemispheres brain. Individuals who have had these tracts surgically severed by callosotomy are able to draw different spatial figures simultaneously using left and right hands, without evidence interactions in planning processes. Paradoxically, tasks (e.g., tying shoes) appear depend on between each which controlled a separate hemisphere, pose little difficulty. How can this be? In study reported here, we observed...
Cardiac device implantation can be complicated by inability to adequately place leads because of significant lead capture issues. This study sought determine whether there are genetic bases that underlie poor capture.Retrospective review all patients with structurally normal hearts who underwent new at Texas Children's Hospital between 2009 and 2014 was performed. Patients 10 V or a final threshold ≥3 0.4 ms during implant were analyzed. Among total 136 (median age, 13 years; range, 3 days...
Five preliminary experiments on sighted individuals revealed marked overestimation an object size-estimation task using a bimanual response. These ruled out the possibility that was due to mode of visual presentation (whether two-dimensional or three-dimensional), input modality (visual kinesthetic), influence other cues. The main experiment then investigated whether these distortions are experience by variant same test 24 blind and control participants. Remarkably, participants...
A causal decomposition analysis allows researchers to determine whether the difference in a health outcome between two groups can be attributed each group's distribution of one or more modifiable mediator variables. With this knowledge, and policymakers focus on designing interventions that target these Existing methods for either variable assume is conditionally independent given group label mediator‐outcome confounders.

Abstract Methods for decomposition analyses have been developed to partition between‐group differences into explained and unexplained portions. In this paper, we introduce the concept of causal maps, which allow researchers test effect area‐level interventions on disease maps before implementation. These quantify impact that aim reduce in health outcomes between groups illustrate how map might change under different interventions. We adapt a new analysis method mapping context. Through...
This article reports interrater reliability among 4 teams of raters who independently evaluated thought disorder in 20 Rorschach protocols using the Thought Disorder Index (TDI). Intraclass correlation coefficients were calculated to assess degree association for total scores, severity levels, and qualitative factors. Highly acceptable agreement was obtained. Spearman rank order these same variables significant all possible pairings teams. A repeated-measures analysis variance indicated that...
Consciousness-raising practices at the heart of feminism remain one most vital components transformative learning theory and provide foundation for its constructivist underpinnings. Recently, there has been a call educators to employ consciousness-raising outside traditional classroom settings focus greater attention on ‘extra-rational’ aspects education – especially when working with marginalised adult learners. This is very much in keeping engaged feminist pedagogy that allows space...
An empirical test of the concurrent and construct validities two measures psychological equity/inequity was conducted. The results indicated low validity between tests poor each a mood checklist. These data demonstrate need for additional validation studies prior to adoption either instrument as accepted measure equity/inequity.
AbstractAbstractPurpose To determine the effect of baseline cognition on gait outcomes after a treadmill training program for people with Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods This pilot clinical trial involved PD who were classified as having no cognitive impairment (PD-NCI) or mild (PD-MCI). Baseline executive function and memory assessed. The intervention was 10-week (twice-weekly sessions), structured speed distance progression verbal cues quality.

Abstract Purpose Black-White racial disparities have long been recognized in cancer incidence. National estimates may not reflect individual states. In Alabama (AL), a primarily rural underserved state, Black Americans are more often diagnosed with breast, prostate and colorectal (CRC), men lung cancer. Although rurality area-level deprivation, as social determinants of health (SDoH), associated cancer, their role explaining incidence remains unknown. We assessed prostate, CRC AL. Methods...
