The effects of explicit morphological analysis instruction in early elementary Spanish speakers.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of implicit and explicit morphological analysis instruction in Spanish, a language characterized by high morphological complexity and relatively consistent letter-sound correspondences. For 3 days, 94 Grade 3 Spanish monolingual students (43 girls; M = 8.9 years) were trained on target words containing experimenter-designed suffixes consistent in form and meaning (e.

Systems-wide view of host-pathogen interactions across COVID-19 severities using integrated omics analysis.

The mechanisms explaining the variability in COVID-19 clinical manifestations (mild, moderate, and severe) are not fully understood. To identify key gene expression markers linked to disease severity, we employed an integrated approach, combining host-pathogen protein-protein interaction data and viral-induced host gene expression data. We analyzed an RNA-seq dataset from peripheral blood mononuclear cells across 12 projects representing the spectrum of disease severity.

Pelvic radiation therapy with volumetric modulated arc therapy and intensity-modulated radiotherapy after renal transplant: A report of 3 cases.

Aim: Describe characteristics and outcomes of three patients treated with pelvic radiation therapy after kidney transplant.

Background: The incidence of pelvic cancers in kidney transplant (KT) recipients is rising. Currently it is the leading cause of death.

Dental students' evaluations of an interactive histology software.

This study assessed dental students' evaluations of a new Interactive Histology Software (IHS) developed by the authors and compared students' assessment of the extent to which this new software, as well as other histology teaching methods, supported their learning. The IHS is a computer-based tool for histology learning that presents high-resolution images of histology basics as well as specific oral histologies at different magnifications and with text labels. Survey data were collected from 204 first-year dental students at the Universidad Austral de Chile.

Cephapirin concentrations in prostatic and seminal vesicle tissues.

A 15 min i.v. infusion supplying either 1 or 2 g of sodium cephapirin was administered preoperatively to patients about to undergo either retropubic or transvesical prostatectomy.
