Disentangling invasiveness and invasibility during invasion in synthesized grassland communities [PDF]
• An experiment with synthesized grassland communities was performed to identify plant traits that contribute to invasiveness and community traits that promote invasibility, and to study the relationship between, and the relative importance of, invasiveness and invasibility.

Simplified minimally invasive invasive parathyroidectomy [PDF]
We agree with Wong et al that minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) is a safe and effective option in selected patients (approximately 50% of those with primary hyperparathyroidism) but would like to comment on some aspects of methodology and conclusions as reported in their case series. The authors quote a reference from 20031 to support their

Invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation [PDF]
Early recognition of patients who might potentially require ventilatory support is a key goal of critical care outreach programs and an important skill for all hospital medical staff. Decisions about the initiation and timing of invasive ventilation can be difficult and early discussion with critical care colleagues is essential.

Invasion pathways and malaria severity in Kenyan Plasmodium falciparum clinical isolates. [PDF]
The invasion of erythrocytes by Plasmodium falciparum occurs through multiple pathways that can be studied in vitro by examining the invasion of erythrocytes treated with enzymes such as neuraminidase, trypsin, and chymotrypsin.

My garden is being invaded by Japanese knotweed, as are those of my neighbors and those of many people who live in other places far from its native East Asia. I keep it more or less under control by eliminating individual extrusions, but I know that I am engaged in an open-ended struggle rather than a campaign leading to possible victory.

Plasmodium falciparum:Rosettes do not protect merozoites from invasion-inhibitory antibodies [PDF]
Rosetting is a parasite adhesion phenotype associated with severe malaria in African children. Why parasites form rosettes is unknown, although enhanced invasion or immune evasion have been suggested as possible functions.

“Non-invasive” brain stimulation is not non-invasive [PDF]
The functions of the healthy brain can be studied in two main ways. Firstly, the changes in the brain's state can be measured using techniques such as EEG or functional MRI. Secondly, the activity of the brain can be disrupted through the use of brain stimulation. The famous experiments of Wilder Penfield and colleagues in the 1950s showed the power of

Cells assemble invadopodia-like structures and invade into matrigel in a matrix metalloprotease dependent manner in the circular invasion assay [PDF]
The ability of tumor cells to invade is one of the hallmarks of the metastatic phenotype. To elucidate the mechanisms by which tumor cells acquire an invasive phenotype, in vitro assays have been developed that mimic the process of cancer cell invasion ...

Invasive and Non-invasive Neurostimulation for OCD
It becomes increasingly clear that (non-)invasive neurostimulation is an effective treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). In this chapter we review the available evidence on techniques and targets, clinical results including a meta-analysis, mechanisms of action, and animal research.

Biphasic behaviour in malignant invasion [PDF]
Invasion is an important facet of malignant growth that enables tumour cells to colonise adjacent regions of normal tissue. Factors known to influence such invasion include the rate at which the tumour cells produce tissue-degrading molecules, or ...
