Foetal oestrogens and autism.
Elevated latent prenatal steroidogenic activity has been found in the amniotic fluid of autistic boys, based on measuring prenatal androgens and other steroid hormones. To date, it is unclear if other prenatal steroids also...
Interactions between Nova and brPTB Proteins in Alternative Splicing and Nuclear Localization
The Nova paraneoplastic antigens are neuron-specific RNA-binding proteins that are essential for neuronal viability and participate in the control of alternative splicing. In this study, the yeast two-hybrid system is used to...

Hidden Cointegration Reveals Hidden Values in Islamic Investments
We explore long-run relationships between Islamic and conventional equity indices for the period 2000-2014. We adopt a hidden co-integration technique to decompose the series into positive and negative components; thus allowing...
Integrating transposable elements in the 3D genome

Chromosome organisation is increasingly recognised as an essential component of genome regulation, cell fate and cell health. Within the realm of transposable elements (TEs) however, the spatial information of how genomes are...

Looking after number two? Competition, cooperation and workplace interaction
We look for cooperation in a real-world setting in which optometrists absent less frequently in two-chair than one-chair offices because of the externality such behavior imposes on their co-worker. We motivate our empirical...

Operational failures and how they influence the work of GPs
BACKGROUND:Operational failures, defined as inadequacies or errors in the information, supplies, or equipment needed for patient care, are known to be highly consequential in hospital environments. Despite their likely relevance...
Robust econometric inference for stock return predictability
This study examines stock return predictability via lagged financial variables with unknown stochastic properties. We propose a novel testing procedure that (1) robustifies inference to regressors’ degree of persistence, (2)...

Simulation Modeling and Analysis of a Door Industry
Ιn this paper, the authors study the production line of a door industry. The first stage of this research consists of the detailed documentation with flow charts and systematization of all production processes, all product...

Economic Value of Cultural Ecosystem Services from Recreation in Popa Mountain National Park, Myanmar
Protected areas offer diverse ecosystem services, including cultural services related to recreation, which contribute manifold to human wellbeing and the economy. However, multiple pressures from other human activities...
Maternal steroid levels and the autistic traits of the mother and infant.

Background

Prenatal sex steroids have been associated with autism in several clinical and epidemiological studies. It is unclear how this relates to the autistic traits of the mother and how early this can be detected...

On the effect of substrate viscoelasticity on the evaporation kinetics and deposition patterns of nanosuspension drops
This study investigates the evaporation of sessile pure water and nanosuspension drops on viscoelastic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films. We varied the viscoelasticity of the PDMS films by controlling the curing ratio and...
