The attraction of insectivorous tit species to herbivore-damaged Scots pines
<p>Insectivorous birds are attracted to insect-damaged deciduous trees by plant cues. However, it is unknown whether birds can locate insects on coniferous trees by plant cues induced by insect feeding activity.<br />Feeding ... -
Expanding the Scope of the Cleavable N-(Methoxy)oxazolidine Linker for the Synthesis of Oligonucleotide Conjugates
Oligonucleotides modified by a 2 '-deoxy-2 '-(N-methoxyamino) ribonucleotide react readily with aldehydes in slightly acidic conditions to yield the corresponding N-(methoxy)oxazolidine-linked oligonucleotide-conjugates. ... -
A Theranostic Cellulose Nanocrystal-Based Drug Delivery System with Enhanced Retention in Pulmonary Metastasis of Melanoma
Metastatic melanoma can be difficult to detect until at the advanced state that decreases the survival rate of patients. Several FDA‐approved BRAF inhibitors have been used for treatment of metastatic melanoma, but ... -
What is the potential for replacing monocultures with mixed-species stands to enhance ecosystem services in boreal forests in Fennoscandia?
The boreal forests of Fennoscandia are largely dominated by Norway spruce and Scots pine. Conifer monocultures have been favoured in forest management during the last decades. Recently, concern has risen that forests ... -
Checklist of the centipedes (Chilopoda) of Hispaniola
<p>Ten years have passed since the last checklist of Hispaniolan Chilopoda was done and the last bibliographic compendium was published. In this work we expand the former list of species and bibliography, update the taxonomic ... -
Aistimusten merkitys Descartesilla havainnossa
<p>Mikä tarkalleen ottaen on aistimusten rooli ulkoisten objektien havaitsemisessa Descartesin mukaan? Descartes esittää, ettei ulkoisia olioita havaita aistien avulla, vaan pelkästään mielen tarkastelulla. Yksi tapa ... -
Quantification of concurrence via weak measurement
Since entanglement is not an observable per se, measuring its value in practice is a difficult task. Here we propose a protocol for quantifying a particular entanglement measure, namely, concurrence, of an arbitrary two-qubit ... -
Xylo-Oligosaccharides in Prevention of Hepatic Steatosis and Adipose Tissue Inflammation: Associating Taxonomic and Metabolomic Patterns in Fecal Microbiomes with Biclustering
We have shown that prebiotic xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) increased beneficial gut microbiota (GM) and prevented high fat diet-induced hepatic steatosis, but the mechanisms associated with these effects are not clear. We ... -
Depression, drugs and dental anxiety in prisons: A mediation model explaining dental decay experience
<div><strong>Objective:</strong> To test a theoretical mediation model and investigate whether drug use and/or dental anxiety act as mediating factors between depression and dental decay experience among prisoners.</div> ... -
HPLC and TLC methods for analysis of [F-18]FDG and its metabolites from biological samples
The most used positron emission tomography (PET) tracer, 2-[F-18]fluoro-2-deoxy-o-glucose ([F-18]FDG), is a glucose analogue that is used to measure tissue glucose consumption. Traditionally, the Sokoloff model is the basis ... -
Herbivore Effects on Ecosystem Process Rates in a Low-Productive System
<p>Mammalian herbivores shape the structure and function of many nutrient-limited or low-productive terrestrial ecosystems through modification of plant communities and plant–soil feedbacks. In the tundra biome, mammalian ... -
Plurality, approval, or Borda? A nineteenth century dispute on voting rules.
<p> </p><p><b>Abstract:</b> According to the oft-repeated story, the theory of social choice was invented by the eighteenth-century French mathematicians: Borda. Condorcet, and Laplace. After their contributions, ...
