The stress induced caleosin, RD20/CLO3, acts as a negative regulator of GPA1 in Arabidopsis

Author(s): Brunetti SC; Arseneault MKM; Wright JA; Wang Z; Ehdaeivand MR; Lowden MJ; Rivoal J; Khalil HB; Garg G; Gulick PJ;

A stress induced calcium-binding protein, RD20/CLO3 interacts with the alpha subunit of the heterotrimeric G-protein complex in Arabidopsis and affects etiolation and leaf morphology. Heterotrimeric G proteins and calcium signaling have both been shown to play a role in the response to environmen ...

Development and User Testing of the PRATICAdr Web Application: Return-to-work Platform Focused on Interaction and Communication Between Stakeholders, Integrating a Sustainable Recovery Program

Author(s): Corbière M; Willems L; Guay S; Panaccio A; Lecomte T; Mazaniello-Chézol M;

Introduction Common mental disorders (CMDs) account for 30% to 50% of all illness absences. The success of RTW is not only due to the individual but rather to the result of the interaction between the stakeholders involved in the RTW process. Numerous mental health applications have been developed to improve patient management and optimize communication b ...

Parity and Psychosocial Risk Factors Increase the Risk of Depression During Pregnancy Among Recent Immigrant Women in Canada

Author(s): Vaillancourt M; Lane V; Ditto B; Da Costa D;

Prior investigations have examined risk factors associated to postpartum depression in immigrant women, but depression during pregnancy has received less attention. This study describes the prevalence and early determinants of antenatal depression among recent (= 5 years) and long-term immigrants (> 5 years), compared to Canadian-born women. 503 women com ...

Behavioural, physical, and psychological predictors of cortisol and C-reactive protein in breast cancer survivors: A longitudinal study

Author(s): Lambert M; Sabiston CM; Wrosch C; Brunet J;

Background: Breast cancer survivors (BCS) can exhibit a dysregulation of cortisol and elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels post-treatment, which increase the risk of diverse health outcomes. Certain behavioural, physical, and psychological variables may help to predict cortisol and CRP levels post-treatment. The aims of this study were to: (1) describ ...

Sex moderations in the relationship between aortic stiffness, cognition, and cerebrovascular reactivity in healthy older adults

Author(s): Sabra D; Intzandt B; Desjardins-Crepeau L; Langeard A; Steele CJ; Frouin F; Hoge RD; Bherer L; Gauthier CJ;

It is well established that sex differences exist in the manifestation of vascular diseases. Arterial stiffness (AS) has been associated with changes in cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) and cognitive decline in aging. Specifically, older adults with increased AS show a decline on executive functi ...

Numerical and Experimental Validation of Mixing Efficiency in Periodic Disturbance Mixers

Author(s): López RR; Sánchez LM; Alazzam A; Burnier JV; Stiharu I; Nerguizian V;

The shape and dimensions of a micromixer are key elements in the mixing process. Accurately quantifying the mixing efficiency enables the evaluation of the performance of a micromixer and the selection of the most suitable one for specific applications. In this paper, two methods are investigated to evaluate the mixing efficiency: a numerical model and an ...

Multiple sclerosis lesions segmentation from multiple experts: the MICCAI 2016 challenge dataset

Author(s): Commowick O; Kain M; Casey R; Ameli R; Ferré JC; Kerbrat A; Tourdias T; Cervenansky F; Camarasu-Pop S; Glatard T; Vukusic S; Edan G; Barillot C; Dojat M; Cotton FI;

MRI plays a crucial role in multiple sclerosis diagnostic and patient follow-up. In particular, the delineation of T2-FLAIR hyperintense lesions is crucial although mostly performed manually - a tedious task. Many methods have thus been proposed to automate this task. However, sufficiently large ...
