PAR2 activation in the dura causes acute behavioral responses and priming to glyceryl trinitrate in a mouse migraine model

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2023
Background Migraine is a severely debilitating disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. Studies have indicated that activation of protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) in the dura mater causes headache responses in preclinical models.

Scaling limits for critical inhomogeneous random graphs with finite third moments [PDF]

, 2009
We identify the scaling limits for the sizes of the largest components at criticality for inhomogeneous random graphs when the degree exponent $\tau$ satisfies $\tau>4$. We see that the sizes of the (rescaled) components converge to the excursion lengths

Camera trap distance sampling for density estimation of tiger prey in a Sumatran ecosystem restoration concession

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Estimating prey species densities is critical for implementing effective tiger Panthera tigris recovery strategies. Several statistical models exist for density estimation of unmarked species from camera trap data, all of which rely on the random placement of cameras.

Early detection of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia based on serial measurement of human chorionic gonadotrophin hormone in women with molar pregnancy

International Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2020
Background: The majority of studies which investigate the predicted power of Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels to the occurrence of Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) considered the effect of a single measurement of hCG or used classical ...

School achievement in the Brazilian rural Amazon: An analysis of the interaction among motor, cognitive and environmental factors

British Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract A cross‐sectional study of 106 students (7–12 years) from a rural school in the Brazilian Amazon investigated the interaction among motor, cognitive and environmental factors on school achievement using network analysis. Students with good school performance were significantly older and showed superior global physical fitness, motor ...

Experimental and numerical analysis of micromechanical damage in the punching process for High-Strength Low-Alloy steels [PDF]

, 2014
Sequential sheet metal forming processes can result in the accumulation of work hardening and damage effects in the workpiece material. The mechanical strength of the final component depends on the “evolution” of these two characteristics in the ...

Activation of peripheral NOP receptors reduces periorbital mechanical allodynia evoked by CGRP in mice

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Migraine is a neurovascular disorder largely mediated by calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP). This study explores the role of the nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ)–N/OFQ receptor (NOP) system in CGRP‐induced periorbital mechanical allodynia (PMA) in mice.

Estimation in Semiparametric Quantile Factor Models

, 2017
We propose an estimation methodology for a semiparametric quantile factor panel model. We provide tools for inference that are robust to the existence of moments and to the form of weak cross-sectional dependence in the idiosyncratic error term. We apply
