Factor Structure of a Lethal Behaviors Scale

Psychological Reports, 1987
Factor analysis of a lethal behaviors scale that had been completed by 399 adolescents and adults indicates that lethality as a construct is multidimensional. Principal factors include a general orientation toward danger and violence, an orientation toward bravery and adventure, thrill-seeking and fast driving, and safe or unsafe habits.

Factors That Diminish Radiation Lethality

Radiology, 1967
several procedures are known to modify the response of mammals to ionizing radiation. Prominent among these are methods and agents that prevent damage to the hematopoietic system and overcome endogenous bacterial invasion. It is significant that the reticuloendothelial system (RES), which shows no evidence of damage histologically even after exposures ...

Counselor's Recognition of Factors in Lethality of Suicide

Psychological Reports, 1981
Counselors' recognition of factors in lethality of suicide was studied using the same scale of factors as was used in Holmes and Howard's study of other professional groups. 15 professors of counselor education, 12 post-secondary counselors, 47 secondary-level counselors, and 20 elementary-level counselors completed an examination of signs of suicide ...

The genetics of blind—a lethal factor in mice

Journal of Heredity, 1978
The linkage relationships of the lethal gene blind (Bld) in the mouse were investigated. The gene is located on chromosome 15, between uw and bt. The distance uw--Bld is 28.2 +/- 5.1 cM: Bld--bt is 14.9 +/- 2.7 cM: and Bld--Ca is 24.6 +/- 2.6 cM. Incomplete penetrance and/or reduced viability of Bld/+ animals was found when blind animals were crossed ...

Apoptosis-inducing factor: vital and lethal

Trends in Cell Biology, 2006
Apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) is a NADH oxidase with a local redox function that is essential for optimal oxidative phosphorylation and for an efficient anti-oxidant defense. The absence of AIF can cause neurodegeneration, skeleton muscle atrophy and dilated cardiomyopathy.

Additional risk factors for lethal hypothermia

Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine, 2013
An 86-year-old woman was found dead lying on her back on the floor of an unkempt kitchen. She had last been seen four days before. Her dress was pulled up and she was not wearing underpants. The house was noted to be in "disarray" with papers covering most surfaces and the floor. Rubbish was piled up against one of the doors.

Developmental Action of Lethal Factors in Drosophila

1951
Publisher Summary Lethal factors are Mendelian units that cause the death of an individual at some stage during its development, thereby preventing it from reaching the reproductive stage. The action of lethal factors demonstrates how development can be altered fundamentally as a consequence of change or loss of genic material.

Hyperactivity as a Lethal Factor in Fish

Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada, 1958
Death occurs in fishes under certain circumstances following severe muscular activity. The precise cause of death is not yet known. However, it is possible that the severe disturbance to acid-base relationships following the large increase of lactic acid liberated from muscle glycogen may be the principal cause of death.
