In a family with cone-rod dystrophy of autosomal recess inheritance, the diagnosis was established by characteristic abnormalities of the ERG, which demonstrates cone responses reduced in amplitude and delayed in implicit time, and rod delayed implicit time in two sisters with macular degeneration. The abnormalities of the implicit time are seen also in two other sisters of the propositi, who are clinically normal. The hypothesis that they are only capable to transmit the gene defect to their offspring is advanced.

Previous research has shown that organic food labeling may lead consumers to biased processing of their preferences, the physiological mechanisms behind this phenomenon are not understood. For the first time, this manuscript combines consumer valuation and physiological measures to investigate the explicit and implicit preference dimensions of organic food. The explicit dimension was measured using the expected and actual degree of liking of two identical - but differently labeled - pear juices (organic and non-organic) while the implicit dimension was measured using the activity of the mylohyoid muscle (MM) and the 3D kinematics of the hand, and arm movements.

Coastal lagoon habitats provide multiple ecosystem goods and services that contribute to people's well-being. However, owing to degradation from both anthropogenic and natural causes, these areas require conservation and protection that involve considerable public investment. To help determine this investment, this study estimates the nonmarket economic value of habitat, regulation, and cultural ecosystem services (ESs) using people's environmental attitudes and temporal preferences.

BMC Palliat Care

Department of Public Health, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center Rotterdam, Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
Background: Specialist palliative care teams (SPCTs) have significant benefits for patients with advanced disease or frailty, including improved quality of life, greater satisfaction with care, and less potentially inappropriate care at the end of life. Experienced SPCTs are recognised to have higher referral rates compared to novice teams. The aim of this study was to assess the development of hospital-wide integration of specialist palliative care (PC) and of SPCTs in Dutch hospitals between 2014 and 2020.
