Measuring what matters to older persons for active living: part I content development for the OPAL measure across four countries

Author(s): Mayo NE; Auais M; Barclay R; Branin J; Dawes H; Korfage IJ; Sawchuk K; Tal E; White CL; Ayoubi Z; Chowdhury F; Henderson J; Mansoubi M; Mate KKV; Nadea L; Rodriguez S; Kuspinar A;

Aims: Many older persons do not think of themselves as "patients" but as persons wishing to live as actively as possible for as long as possible. However, most health-related quality of life (HRQL) measures were developed for use with clinical populations. The aim of this project was to fill that ...

Cognates are advantaged over non-cognates in early bilingual expressive vocabulary development

Author(s): Mitchell L; Tsui RK; Byers-Heinlein K;

Bilinguals need to learn two words for most concepts. These words are called translation equivalents, and those that also sound similar (e.g., banana-banane) are called cognates. Research has consistently shown that children and adults process and name cognates more easily than non-cognates. The present study explored if there is such an advantage for cog ...

An RNA granule for translation quality control in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Author(s): Dhaliwal JS; Panozzo C; Benard L; Zerges W;

Cytoplasmic RNA granules compartmentalize phases of the translation cycle in eukaryotes. We previously reported the localization of oxidized RNA to cytoplasmic foci called oxidized RNA bodies (ORBs) in human cells. We show here that ORBs are RNA granules in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Several lines of evidence support a role of ORBs in the compartmentalizat ...

A Synthetic Biosensor for Detecting Putrescine in Beef Samples

Author(s): Selim AS; Perry JM; Nasr MA; Pimprikar JM; Shih SCC;

Biogenic amines (BAs) are toxicological risks present in many food products. Putrescine is the most common foodborne BA and is frequently used as a quality control marker. Currently, there is a lack of regulation concerning safe putrescine limits in food as well as outdated food handling practices leading to unnecessary putrescine intake. Conventional met ...

Are translation equivalents special? Evidence from simulations and empirical data from bilingual infants

Author(s): Tsui RK; Gonzalez-Barrero AM; Schott E; Byers-Heinlein K;

The acquisition of translation equivalents is often considered a special component of bilingual children's vocabulary development, as bilinguals have to learn words that share the same meaning across their two languages. This study examined three contrasting accounts for bilingual children's acquisition of translation equivalents relative to singl ...

Methodological and clinical challenges associated with biomarkers for psychiatric disease: A scoping review.

Author(s): Kirkpatrick RH; Munoz DP; Khalid-Khan S; Booij L;

Over the past decade, psychiatric research has been on an important hunt for biomarkers of psychiatric disease. In psychiatry, the term "biomarker" is a broad umbrella term used to identify any biological variable that can be objectively measured and applied to a diagnosis; this includes genetic and epigenetic assessments, hormone levels, measures of neur ...
