State Implementation of the New WIC Produce Package: Opportunities and Barriers for WIC Clients to Use Their Benefits at Farmers' Markets [PDF]

, 2009
The new WIC fruit and vegetable package will create a $500 million market annually for produce. Even if 10% of these benefits were spent at farmers markets, it would provide a big boon for access to local food and to small farmers.

Transport Scaling Studies for EBT Reactor [PDF]

Nuclear Technology - Fusion, 1983
Transport simulation and modeling studies for the ELMO bumpy Torus (EBT) reactor are carried out by using 0-D and 1-1/2-D transport calculations. The time-dependent 0-D model is used for global analysis whereas the 1-1/2-D radial transport code is used for accurate determination of density, temperature, and ambipolar potential profiles and of the role ...

Evidence-based translation for the genomic responses of murine models for the study of human immunity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Murine models are an essential tool to study human immune responses and related diseases. However, the use of traditional murine models has been challenged by recent systemic surveys that show discordance between human and model immune responses in their

Estrogen Deprivation During Primate (Papio anubis) Pregnancy: Impact on Systemic Microvascular Flow and Cardiovascular Development and Function After Birth in Offspring

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Suppressing estradiol (E2) during baboon pregnancy lowers offspring skeletal muscle capillary density, vital for insulin‐mediated glucose uptake, and induces insulin resistance. We examined whether E2 deprivation also impairs microvascular flow and cardiac function.

A dosimetric comparison of brachytherapy sources for endometrial cancer: an electronic brachytherapy and an iridium-192 source with multichannel cylinders and a three-dimensional technique

BMC Cancer
Background and purpose Ir192 vaginal brachytherapy (IBT) is commonly used for patients with postoperative endometrial cancer (EC). We devised a novel multichannel vaginal applicator that could be equipped with an electronic brachytherapy (EBT) device. We
