Phylogenetic signal and linear regression on species data

1. A common procedure in the regression analysis of interspecies data is to first test the independent and dependent variables X and Y for phylogenetic signal, and then use the ...

Higher 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations are associated with better lower-extremity function in both active and inactive persons aged ≥60 y

Learning from Mistakes is Easier Said Than Done: Group and Organizational Influences on the Detection and Correction of Human Error

This research explores how group- and organizational-level factors affect errors in administering drugs to hospitalized patients. Findings from patient care groups in two hospit...

Biochemistry, mutagenesis, and oligomerization of DsRed, a red fluorescent protein from coral

DsRed is a recently cloned 28-kDa fluorescent protein responsible for the red coloration around the oral disk of a coral of the Discosoma genus. DsRed has attracted tremendous i...

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus: Another Zoonotic Betacoronavirus Causing SARS-Like Disease

SUMMARY The source of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic was traced to wildlife market civets and ultimately to bats. Subsequent hunting for novel coronavirus...

The universal galaxy cluster pressure profile from a representative sample of nearby systems (REXCESS) and the<i>Y</i>_SZ–<i>M</i>₅₀₀relation

We investigate the regularity of cluster pressure profiles with REXCESS, a representative sample of 33 local (z &amp;lt; 0.2) clusters drawn from the REFLEX catalogue and observ...

Multicolor and Electron Microscopic Imaging of Connexin Trafficking

Recombinant proteins containing tetracysteine tags can be successively labeled in living cells with different colors of biarsenical fluorophores so that older and younger protei...

Size dependency of nanocrystalline TiO2 on its optical property and photocatalytic reactivity exemplified by 2-chlorophenol

Abnormal tau phosphorylation at Ser396 in alzheimer's disease recapitulates development and contributes to reduced microtubule binding

Comparison and Evaluation of Retrospective Intermodality Brain Image Registration Techniques

Our results indicate that retrospective techniques have the potential to produce satisfactory results much of the time, but that visual inspection is necessary to guard against ...

Using Social Exchange Theory to Distinguish Procedural from Interactional Justice

Organizational justice researchers have long debated the distinction between procedural and interactional justice. Recently, several researchers have proposed that procedural an...

IV.—On Least Squares and Linear Combination of Observations

In a series of papers W. F. Sheppard (1912, 1914) has considered the approximate representation of equidistant, equally weighted, and uncorrelated observations under the followi...
