Presynaptic facilitation at the crayfish neuromuscular junction: Role of calcium-activated potassium conductance [PDF]
, 1991 Membrane potential was recorded intracellularly near presynaptic terminals of the excitor axon of the crayfish opener neuromuscular junction (NMJ), while transmitter release was recorded postsynaptically.

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.

occumb: An R package for site occupancy modeling of eDNA metabarcoding data
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study introduces a new R package, occumb, for the convenient application of site occupancy modeling using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding data. We outline a data analysis workflow, including data setup, model fitting, model assessment, and comparison of potential study settings based on model predictions, all of which can be performed using

Conditional independence, conditional mixing and conditional association [PDF]
Annals of the Institute of Statistical Mathematics, 2007 Some properties of conditionally independent random variables are studied. Conditional versions of generalized Borel-Cantelli lemma, generalized Kolmogorov’s inequality and generalized Hajek-Renyi inequality are proved. As applications, a conditional version of the strong law of large numbers for conditionally independent random variables and a ...

Dendritic cells steering antigen and leukocyte traffic in lymph nodes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Dendritic cells are key players in the activation of T cells and their commitment to effector function. In this In a Nutshell Review, we will discuss how dendritic cells guide the trafficking of antigen and leukocytes in the lymph node, thus influencing T‐cell activation processes. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in initiating and shaping the

Conditional Random Quantities and Compounds of Conditionals [PDF]
Studia Logica, 2013 In this paper we consider finite conditional random quantities and conditional previsions assessments in the setting of coherence. We use a suitable representation for conditional random quantities; in particular the indicator of a conditional event $E|H$ is looked at as a three-valued quantity with values 1, or 0, or $p$, where $p$ is the probability ...

Placebos as a Source of Agency: Evidence and Implications
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2019 Bioethical discussions surrounding the use of placebos in clinical practice have long revolved around the moral permissibility of deceiving a patient if it is likely to benefit them.

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since
