ICT Learning by Older Adults and Their Attitudes toward Computer Use

Current Gerontology and Geriatrics Research, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Information and communication technologies have proven to be an effective way of helping older adults improve independence outcomes, but such technologies are yet not widely used by this segment of the population. This paper aims to study computer use and senior citizens’ attitudes toward computer technology in the context of a 20‐hour course in basic ...

Provocative Vocatives: Slurs as Expressives

Philosophical Perspectives, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 41-53, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Fifty years ago, Zwicky demonstrated the slur‐neutral counterpart vocative divergence thesis (SNCVD):Slurs occur freely as vocatives. Neutral counterparts do not. In this article, I craft a novel problem for theories of slurs. The Vocatives Problem is the challenge to explain the SNCVD. I argue that there are two strong solutions.

Purulent Cutaneous Fistula: As the First Symptom of the Late Aortic Stent‐Graft Infection—A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Case Reports in Surgery, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Purpose. Aortic stent‐graft infection with fistula formation is a rare complication with high mortality rate when treated surgically by stent‐graft removal. We report a case of a patient with aortic stent‐graft infection, prosthetic‐duodenal, and prosthetic‐cutaneous fistulas operated without the removal of an infected prosthesis and ineffectively ...

JRK binds satellite III DNA and is necessary for the heat shock response

Cell Biology International, Volume 48, Issue 8, Page 1212-1222, August 2024.
Abstract JRK is a DNA‐binding protein of the pogo superfamily of transposons, which includes the well‐known centromere binding protein B (CENP‐B). Jrk null mice exhibit epilepsy, and growth and reproductive disorders, consistent with its relatively high expression in the brain and reproductive tissues.

Systematic Analysis of the Effect of Genomic Knock‐Out of Non‐Essential Promiscuous HAD‐Like Phosphatases YcsE, YitU and YwtE on Flavin and Adenylate Content in Bacillus Subtilis

ChemBioChem, Volume 25, Issue 12, June 17, 2024.
Three HAD‐like phosphatases – YcsE, YwtE and YitU – that catalyze dephosphorylation of one of the riboflavin biosynthesis intermediates are knocked out singly or in combinations inB. subtilis using CRISPR‐Cas9 genome editing technology. The influence of the knockouts on bacterial fitness as well as on flavin and adenylate intracellular concentration is
