Cost-utility of adjuvant zoledronic acid in patients with breast cancer and low estrogen levels [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Adjuvant zoledronic acid (za) appears to improve disease-free survival (dfs) in women with early-stage breast cancer and low levels of estrogen (lle) because of induced or natural menopause.

Nearly Half of Patients with Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer May Be Amenable to Immunotherapy
Importance: Poorly differentiated cancer (PDC) and anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) have an aggressive course of disease with limited treatment options. The expression of programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) has been used to determine the responses of ...

The Cross-Education Phenomenon: Brain and Beyond
Objectives: Unilateral resistance training produces strength gains in the untrained homologous muscle group, an effect termed “cross-education.” The observed strength transfer has traditionally been considered a phenomenon of the nervous system, with few

World-wide Evidence for Gender Difference in Sociality [PDF]
One of the most contested questions about human behaviour is whether there are inherent sex or gender differences in the formation and maintenance of social bonds. On one hand, female and male brains are structurally almost identical, and while there are sex differences in the endocrine system, these are small, while much of gendered identity and ...

We sincerely thank Dr Jolobe for the response to our paper1 and very much appreciate the interesting addition2 to the discussion on this difficult topic. It is true that autoimmunity has been proposed to play a role in the aetiology of Peripartum Cardiomyopathy (PPCM), as we mention in our introduction.

Output corridor control via design of impulsive Goodwin's oscillator [PDF]
In the Impulsive Goodwin's oscillator (IGO), a continuous positive linear time-invariant (LTI) plant is controlled by an amplitude- and frequency-modulated feedback into an oscillating solution. Self-sustained oscillations in the IGO model have been extensively used to portray periodic rhythms in endocrine systems, whereas the potential of the concept ...

Reproductive roles of the vasopressin/oxytocin neuropeptide family in teleost fishes
The vertebrate nonapeptide families arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OXT) are considered to have evolved from a single vasopressin-like peptide present in invertebrates and termed arginine vasotocin in early vertebrate evolution.

We present the first solution structure of the Ca2+‐depleted LETM1 F‐EF‐hand through a D676A/N678A Ca2+ binding‐deficient mutant, revealing a closed hydrophobic cleft caused by a unique F1‐helix pivot. The apo LETM1 F‐EF‐hand exhibits regiospecific hot and cold unfolding, sensitivity to physiological pH changes and potential for promiscuous heterotypic
