Eating Attitudes of Native American and African American Women: Differences by Race and Acculturation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Thirty-tour Native American and twenty-eight African American women responded to eating disorders and acculturation measures. African Americans appeared to have greater concern about their body weight and shape than Native Americans. Among all, those who

Enhanced Sensitivity of a Modified Quaking‐Induced Conversion Diagnostic Test for the Broad Detection of Sporadic and Inherited Prion Diseases: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Quaking‐induced conversion (QuIC) tests, which detect prion‐seeding activity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), have markedly advanced the antemortem diagnosis of prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD). These tests provide high diagnostic accuracy and enable timely differentiation from other rapidly progressive neurodegenerative ...

A multimodal characterization of low-dimensional thalamocortical structural connectivity patterns

open access: yesCommunications Biology
The human thalamus is a heterogeneous subcortical structure coordinating whole-brain activity. Investigations of its internal organization reveal differentiable subnuclei, however, a consensus on subnuclei boundaries remains absent.

Decomposition of CO2 Emissions over 1980–2003 in Turkey [PDF]

open access: yes
There is a multi-dimensional need for studying the energy situation in Turkey and to ob-tain insight into the development of CO2 emissions. On the one hand, recent projections of the OECD show that Turkey has a yearly GDP growth potential of over 7%.

Barriers to English Language Learners in the Chicago Metropolitan Area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Immigrants from all over the world are continuing to move to Illinois in large numbers. As they settle into an increasingly diverse range of communities within metropolitan Chicago, this expansion of ports of entry creates new challenges for the state ...

How do random Fibonacci sequences grow?

open access: yes, 2006
We study two kinds of random Fibonacci sequences defined by $F_1=F_2=1$ and for $n\ge 1$, $F_{n+2} = F_{n+1} \pm F_{n}$ (linear case) or $F_{n+2} = |F_{n+1} \pm F_{n}|$ (non-linear case), where each sign is independent and either + with probability $p ...

Individualized Atrophy‐Based Prediction of Dementia Progression in Familial Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration With Bayesian Linear Mixed‐Effects Modeling

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Age of symptom onset is highly variable in familial frontotemporal lobar degeneration (f‐FTLD). Accurate prediction of onset would inform clinical management and trial enrollment. Prior studies indicate that individualized maps of brain atrophy can predict conversion to dementia in f‐FTLD.

Neurocognitive dynamics and behavioral differences of symmetry and asymmetry processing in working memory: insights from fNIRS

open access: yesScientific Reports
Symmetry is a ubiquitous property of the visual world. It facilitates cognitive processing and fosters aesthetic appeal. Despite its importance to aesthetic experience and perceptual prominence, the integration of symmetry in working memory remains ...

Fibroblast Transcriptomics in Molecular Diagnostics of a Comprehensive Dystonia Cohort

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Genomic sequencing leaves >50% of dystonia‐affected individuals without a diagnosis. Where DNA‐oriented approaches remain insufficient, integrating multiomics is essential to advance genome interpretation. Herein, we incorporated RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) data from 167 patients with dystonia across a range of ages and presentations. Methods We

Probabilistic Modeling of Lunar Topography for Exosphere Simulations and Implications for Helium, Neon, and Argon

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
We introduce a numerically efficient approach to include lunar surface topography in Monte Carlo exosphere simulations by sampling slope and azimuth angles from latitude-dependent Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter distributions and rotating particle release ...
