The host limits adenovirus infections by mobilizing immune systems directed against infected cells that also represent major barriers to clinical use of adenoviral vectors. Adenovirus early transcription units encode a number of products capable of thwarting antiviral immune responses by co-opting host cell pathways. Although the EGF receptor (EGFR) was a known target for the early region 3 (E3) RIDα protein encoded by nonpathogenic group C adenoviruses... Читать дальше...

Terrestrial arthropods, including insects, commonly harbor maternally inherited intracellular symbionts that confer benefits to the host or manipulate host reproduction to favor infected female progeny. These symbionts may be especially vulnerable to thermal stress, potentially leading to destabilization of the symbiosis and imposing costs to the host. For example, increased temperatures can reduce the density of a common reproductive manipulator... Читать дальше...

Goals and methodsA simulation study investigated how ceiling and floor effect (CFE) affect the performance of Welch’s t-test, F-test, Mann-Whitney test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Scheirer-Ray-Hare-test, trimmed t-test, Bayesian t-test, and the “two one-sided tests” equivalence testing procedure. The effect of CFE on the estimate of group difference and on its confidence interval, and on Cohen’s d and on its confidence interval was also evaluated. In addition... Читать дальше...

This study examined the effect of gaming context on young children’s prosocial behaviors. Dyads of 4- to 5-year-old children (N = 96) played the same game cooperatively, competitively, or solitarily. After playing the game for a total of ten minutes, sharing with and social inclusion of uninvolved third-parties as well as free play with previous co-players was observed. Children shared less with third-parties after playing the game competitively than after playing it cooperatively. Читать дальше...

IntroductionDemographic and Health Surveys, widely used for estimation of fertility and reproductive health indicators in developing countries, remain underutilized for the study of pregnancy termination. This is partly due to most surveys not reporting the type of pregnancy termination, whether spontaneous or induced. Reproductive calendar data makes it possible to examine termination patterns according to contraceptive use at the time of pregnancy. Читать дальше...

The internal phenotypes of netted muskmelon (Cucumis melo L. var. eticulates Naud.) are always associated with its external phenotypes. In this study, the parameters of external phenotypic traits were extracted from muskmelon images captured by machine vision, and the internal phenotypes of interest to us were measured. Pearson analysis showed that most external phenotypic traits were highly correlated with these internal phenotypes in muskmelon fruit. Читать дальше...

PurposeMost ophthalmologists appear to have no distinct preference between unilateral recess-resect (R&R) and bilateral lateral rectus (BLR) recessions to treat basic-type exotropia. This study aimed to determine whether differences in distance-near discrepancy and resultant exotropia types of recurrent exotropia following surgery for primary basic-type exotropia exist between the two surgical options.
