Mixed Land Use and Obesity: An Empirical Comparison of Alternative Land Use Measures and Geographic Scales [PDF]

open access: yesThe Professional Geographer, 2012
Obesity is a growing epidemic in the United States. Walkable neighborhoods, characterized as having the 3Ds of walkability (population Density, land use Diversity, and pedestrian-friendly Design), have been identified as a potentially promising factor to prevent obesity for their residents.

Development of a Model to Evaluate the Effects of Urban Mixed Land Uses on the Basis of the Spatial Indicators and Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesجغرافیا و آمایش شهری منطقه‌ای, 2013
Urban Land use planning activities investigate how a land is allocated to a specific function. Over the past few decades, development of the Mixed Land Use (MLU) application has become an essential planning model in developed countries and has considered

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Mixing Structure of Land-use

open access: yesAnnals of The Tohoku Geographycal Asocciation, 1976
On the distribution based on a certain areal division in which individual units such as persons or households are antecedently grouped, it is noticeable to be able to distinguish two meanings in the relationships among the distributions: Co-variance and Co-occurrence. The Co-occurrence with small interval is called “Mixing” by the author.The purpose of
