Reproducibility in ecology and evolution: Minimum standards for data and code

Author(s): Jenkins GB; Beckerman AP; Bellard C; Benítez-López A; Ellison AM; Foote CG; Hufton AL; Lashley MA; Lortie CJ; Ma Z; Moore AJ; Narum SR; Nilsson J; O' Boyle B; Provete DB; Razgour O; Rieseberg L; Riginos C; Santini L; Sibbett B; Pere ...

We call for journals to commit to requiring open data be archived in a format that will be simple and clear for readers to understand and use. If applied consistently, these requirements will allow contributors to be acknowledged for their work through citation of open data, and facilitate scient ...

Integration of visual context in early and late bilingual language processing: evidence from eye-tracking

Author(s): Abashidze D; Schmidt A; Trofimovich P; Mercier J;

Previous research on the processing of language embedded in a rich visual context has revealed the strong effect that a recently viewed action event has on language comprehension. It has been shown that listeners are more likely to view the target object of a recently performed event than look at the target object of a plausible future event during senten ...

Inhibited and Retarded Behavior by Ca2+ and Ca2+/OD Loading Rate on Ureolytic Bacteria in MICP Process

Author(s): Fukue M; Lechowicz Z; Fujimori Y; Emori K; Mulligan CN;

The estimation of optical density (OD) with viable cells is challenging for engineering purposes. In this study, the OD conversion based on previous study was used. The inhibited and retarded behavior of the microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) process was examined. The experimental results showed that high Ca2+ drastically influences the in ...

Does Conceptual Transparency in Manipulatives Afford Place-Value Understanding in Children at Risk for Mathematics Learning Disabilities?

Author(s): Lafay A; Osana HP; Levin JR;

We investigated the effect of conceptual transparency in the physical structure of manipulatives on place-value understanding in typically developing children and those at risk for mathematics learning disabilities. Second graders were randomly assigned to one of three manipulatives conditions: (a) attachable beads that did not make the denominations or o ...

Exploring a peer-based physical activity program in the community for adults with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury

Author(s): Quilico E; Sweet S; Duncan L; Wilkinson S; Bonnell K; Alarie C; Swaine B; Colantonio A;

Primary objective: To explore the experiences of program mentors, participants, and employees involved in a peer-based physical activity (PA) program for adults with moderate-to-severe TBI, being piloted by a community fitness center, to develop the program as a measurable intervention.
Research design: We adopted an ...

Clustering of Health Behaviors in Canadians: A Multiple Behavior Analysis of Data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging

Author(s): van Allen Z; Bacon SL; Bernard P; Brown H; Desroches S; Kastner M; Lavoie KL; Marques MM; McCleary N; Straus S; Taljaard M; Thavorn K; Tomasone JR; Presseau J;

Background: Health behaviors such as physical inactivity, unhealthy eating, smoking tobacco, and alcohol use are each leading risk factors for non-communicable chronic disease. Better understanding which behaviors tend to co-occur (i.e., cluster together) and co-vary (i.e., are correlated) may pr ...

Sub-hourly measurement datasets from 6 real buildings: Energy use and indoor climate

Author(s): Sartori I; Walnum HT; Skeie KS; Georges L; Knudsen MD; Bacher P; Candanedo J; Sigounis AM; Prakash AK; Pritoni M; Granderson J; Yang S; Wan MP;

The data presented here were collected independently for 6 real buildings by researchers of different institutions and gathered in the context of the IEA EBC Annex 81 Data-driven Smart Buildings, as a joint effort to compile a diverse range of datasets suitable for advanced control applications o ...

Fluid flow influences ultrasound-assisted endothelial membrane permeabilization and calcium flux

Author(s): Memari E; Hui F; Yusefi H; Helfield B;

The local fluid dynamics experienced by circulating microbubbles vary across different anatomical sites, which can influence ultrasound-mediated therapeutic delivery efficacy. This study aimed to elucidate the effect of fluid flow rate in combination with repeated short-pulse ultrasound on microbubble-mediated endothelial cell permeabilization. Here, a se ...

Identification of Genes Involved in the Degradation of Lignocellulose Using Comparative Transcriptomics

Author(s): Gruninger RJ; Tsang A; McAllister TA;

Lignocellulosic biomass represents an abundant, renewable resource that can be used to produce biofuels, low-cost livestock feed, and high-value chemicals. The potential of this bioresource has led to intensive research efforts to develop cost-effective methods to break down lignocellulose. The efficiency with which the anaerobic fungi (phylum Neocallimas ...

Validating MEG source imaging of resting state oscillatory patterns with an intracranial EEG atlas

Author(s): Afnan J; von Ellenrieder N; Lina JM; Pellegrino G; Arcara G; Cai Z; Hedrich T; Abdallah C; Khajehpour H; Frauscher B; Gotman J; Grova C;

Background: Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is a widely used non-invasive tool to estimate brain activity with high temporal resolution. However, due to the ill-posed nature of the MEG source imaging (MSI) problem, the ability of MSI to identify accurately underlying brain sources along the cortical ...

Olfactory function reflects episodic memory performance and atrophy in the medial temporal lobe in individuals at risk for Alzheimer's disease

Author(s): Papadatos Z; Phillips NA;

We examined cognitive domains and brain regions associated with olfactory performance in cognitively unimpaired older adults (CU-OAs) and individuals with or at risk for Alzheimer's Disease (AD). We compared CU-OAs (N = 55), individuals with subjective cognitive decline (SCD, N = 55), mild cognitive impairment (MCI, N = 101), and AD (N = 45) on measur ...
