Plant responses to rising vapor pressure deficit.
New Phytologist, 2020 Recent decades have been characterized by increasing temperatures worldwide, resulting in an exponential climb in vapor pressure deficit (VPD). VPD has been identified as an increasingly important driver of plant functioning in terrestrial biomes ...

Thrombectomy 6 to 24 Hours after Stroke with a Mismatch between Deficit and Infarct
New England Journal of Medicine, 2018 BACKGROUND The effect of endovascular thrombectomy that is performed more than 6 hours after the onset of ischemic stroke is uncertain. Patients with a clinical deficit that is disproportionately severe relative to the infarct volume may benefit from ...

Attention deficits without cortical neuronal deficits [PDF]
Nature, 2012 The ability to process relevant stimuli selectively is a fundamental function of the primate visual system. The best-understood correlate of this function is the enhanced response of neurons in the visual cortex to attended stimuli. However, recent results show that the superior colliculus (SC), a midbrain structure, also has a crucial role in visual ...

Déficits gêmeos e poupança nacional: abordagem teórica
Brazilian Journal of Political Economy, 2009 A consensus has not yet emerged about the relationship between budget deficit, external deficit and national saving. According to mainstream economic literature the budget deficit can cause an insufficiency of national saving for a given investment rate.

Increased atmospheric vapor pressure deficit reduces global vegetation growth
Science Advances, 2019 Global vegetation greening trend stalled after the late 1990s due to increased atmospheric water demand. Atmospheric vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is a critical variable in determining plant photosynthesis.

β-Cell Deficit and Increased β-Cell Apoptosis in Humans With Type 2 Diabetes
Diabetes, 2003 Type 2 diabetes is characterized by impaired insulin secretion. Some but not all studies suggest that a decrease in β-cell mass contributes to this. We examined pancreatic tissue from 124 autopsies: 91 obese cases (BMI >27 kg/m2; 41 with type 2 diabetes,

Inner-ear abnormalities and their functional consequences in Belgian Waterslager canaries (Serinus canarius) [PDF]
, 1994 Recent reports of elevated auditory thresholds in canaries of the Belgian Waterslager strain have shown that this strain has an inherited auditory deficit in which absolute auditory thresholds at high frequencies (i.e. above 2.0 kHz) are as much as 40 dB
