Systematic review of pharmacological treatments in fragile X syndrome
(BioMed Central, 2009-10-13)
Background: Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is considered the most common cause of inherited mental retardation. Affected people have mental impairment that can include Attention Deficit and/or Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), ...
The COMT Val158 Met polymorphism as an associated risk factor for Alzheimer disease and mild cognitive impairment in APOE 4 carriers
(BioMed Central, 2009-09)
Background: The aim of this study is to examine the influence of the catechol-O-methyltranferase (COMT) gene (polymorphism Val158 Met) as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment of amnesic ...
Flexible Strain-Tension Calculation Method for Gap-type Overhead Conductors
(IEEE, 2009-07)
Commercially available sag-tension programs give good results for most practical applications. However, they have some limitations concerning gap-type conductors. A separate aluminum and core creep calculation is needed ...
Identification of Horse Chestnut Coat Color Genotype Using SNaPshot
(Biomed Central, 2009-12-16)
BACKGROUND: The Cantabrian Coast horse breeds of the Iberian Peninsula have mainly black or bay colored coats, but alleles responsible for a chestnut coat color run in these breeds and occasionally, chestnut horses are ...
Thin Magnetically Soft Wires for Magnetic Microsensors
(MDPI, 2009-11)
Recent advances in technology involving magnetic materials require development of novel advanced magnetic materials with improved magnetic and magneto-transport properties and with reduced dimensionality. Therefore magnetic ...
Influence of maternal weight on the new onset of stress urinary incontinence in pregnant women
(Springer, 2009-06-05)
Esta publicación detalla los trabajos realizados para investigar la incidencia y la gravedad de la incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo (IUE) en mujeres primigrávidas a término y su asociación con diferentes factores de ...
Factors involved in stress urinary incontinence 1 year after first delivery
(Springer, 2009-11-26)
En esta publicación de gran impacto se investigan los factores de riesgo implicados en la incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo (IUE) un año después del primer parto. La hipótesis del estudio fue que el embarazo por sí mismo ...
Is Basque an Agglutinative Language? A Proposal for the Diachrony of Nominal Morphology
(University of California, Santa Barbara, 2009)
The title of this paper is reminiscent of de Rijk’s (1969) “Is Basque an SOV language?”. This SOV pattern, together with agglutination and ergativity are maybe the most characteristic features of Basque, or at least the ...
Bonding and molecular environment effects on photoorientation in epoxy-based polymers having azobenzene units
(Elsevier, 2009-03)
An azo prepolymer (TAZ) was synthesized by reaction between Disperse Orange 3 (DO3)
and diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA). The resulting TAZ was blended with DGEBA
and two different monoamines, one aliphatic and ...
A Metamodeling Technique for Variable Geometry Trusses Design via Equivalent Parametric Macroelements
(ASME, 2009-09-03)
A metamodeling methodology is applied to reduce the large computational cost required in the design of variable geometry trusses (VGTs). Using this methodology, submodels of finite elements within a complete FE model of ...
