Persistent activity of neurons in the prefrontal cortex has been thought to represent the information maintained in working memory, though alternative models have challenged this idea. Theories that depend on the dynamic representation of information posit that stimulus information may be maintained by the activity pattern of neurons whose firing rate is not significantly elevated above their baseline during the delay period of working memory tasks. We thus tested the ability of neurons that do and do not generate persistent activity in the prefrontal cortex of monkeys to represent spatial and object information in working memory.

The application of synthetic pesticides to agricultural fields for the protection of crops leads to the formation of residues in soils. While the short-term behavior of pesticide residues in soils after an application is generally known from laboratory and field studies required for authorization (prospective risk assessments), there is still a lack of in-situ observations that address their long-term fate. Long-term soil monitoring programs, with comprehensive site-specific records of pesticide application data, constitute an invaluable, complementary, retrospective exposure assessment tool to address this gap.

Non-persistent endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), including phthalates and phenols, are ubiquitous in both the environment and human body. A growing body of epidemiologic studies have identified concerning links between EDCs and adverse reproductive and developmental health effects. Despite consistent evidence, risk assessments and policy interventions often arrive late.

Purpose: To explore differences between ICU patients with persistent delirium (PD), non-persistent delirium (NPD) and no delirium (ND), and to determine factors associated with PD.
Materials And Methods: Retrospective cohort study including all ICU adults admitted for ≥12 h (January 2015-February 2020), assessable for delirium and followed during their entire hospitalization. PD was defined as ≥14 days of delirium.
Unlabelled: In short-term studies, persistence with denosumab has been higher than with other osteoporosis drugs. This study shows that persistence can be maintained in the long-term and is associated with efficacy and safety parameters.
Purpose: To assess long-term persistence with denosumab in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
