Factor structure of intelligence and divergent thinking subtests: A registered report.

Psychologists have investigated creativity for 70 years, and it is now seen as being an important construct, both scientifically and because of its practical value to society. However, several fundamental unresolved problems persist, including a suitable definition of creativity and the ability of psychometric tests to measure divergent thinking-an important component of creativity-in a way that aligns with theory. It is this latter point that this registered report is designed to address.

Josephson coupled Ising pairing induced in suspended MoS bilayers by double-side ionic gating.

Superconductivity in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides is characterized by Ising-type pairing induced via a strong Zeeman-type spin-orbit coupling. When two transition metal dichalcogenides layers are coupled, more exotic superconducting phases emerge, which depend on the ratio of Ising-type protection and interlayer coupling strength. Here, we induce superconductivity in suspended MoS bilayers and unveil a coupled superconducting state with strong Ising-type spin-orbit coupling.

Risk factors for progression from severe maternal morbidity to death: a national cohort study.

Background: Women continue to die unnecessarily during or after pregnancy in the developed world. The aim of this analysis was to compare women with severe maternal morbidities who survived with those who died, to quantify the risk associated with identified factors to inform policy and practice to improve survival.

Methods And Findings: We conducted a national cohort analysis using data from two sources obtained between 2003 and 2009: the Centre for Maternal and Child Enquiries maternal deaths database and the United Kingdom Obstetric Surveillance System database.

Perinatal mortality and congenital anomalies in babies of women with type 1 or type 2 diabetes in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland: population based study.

Objective: To provide perinatal mortality and congenital anomaly rates for babies born to women with type 1 or type 2 diabetes in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

Design: National population based pregnancy cohort.

Setting: 231 maternity units in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

Cannabinoid CB(1) receptor expression, activation and detection of endogenous ligand in trabecular meshwork and ciliary process tissues.

Elevated intraocular pressure is the primary risk factor for glaucoma. Cannabinoids interact with molecular targets in the eye and lower intraocular pressure by an unknown mechanism. The purpose of the present study was to examine eye tissues for functional cannabinoid receptors of the neuronal, CB(1) class, and an endogenous ligand, anandamide.

Pharmacology of ocular surgery.

With new techniques and improved medications, anterior segment surgery has become more complex. All ophthalmic medical personnel should be aware of these different medications and their reasons for use. The bioavailability and route of administration of medications are additional areas OMP should be familiar with in order to facilitate superior eye care.

Evaluation of dietary dehydroepiandrosterone for chemoprotection against tumorigenesis in premalignant colonic epithelium of male F344 rats.

Epidemiological and experimental studies suggest that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), an adrenal cortical steroid, has chemoprotective properties. Rat colonic epithelium which had been induced to a premalignant state by the colonic carcinogen azoxymethane was used as a model for patients at high risk of colorectal carcinoma, and the efficacy of dietary DHEA for chemoprotection against tumorigenesis was evaluated. Ten-week-old male F344 rats (n = 100) were given 10 weekly s.
