BACKGROUND: Influences of resilience on the presence and severity of depression
following trauma exposure are largely unknown. Hence, we examined effects of resilience on …

… (AR Gutman, KJ Ressler, and M. Davis, unpublished observations). Together these results
led us to ask the mechanistic question, “How could increased levels of NPY be protective?” …

p H determination is a strong prerequisite for many biochemical and biological processes.
We used two methods, namely, the electrochemical potential method (experimental) and site …

This book covers the fundamental relationships between solid surface chemical reactivity
and the stressed state of surface layers; developed mainly by the author. Acceleration of …

The optical properties of chemical-solution-deposited thin films of lead sulfide (PbS) were
investigated using infrared transmission and photoluminescence spectroscopies. The …

Objective Although evidence implicates striatal cholinergic impairment as a mechanism
underlying tardive dyskinesia, trials of nonspecific cholinergic agents have been inconclusive. …
