Commodity equivalence and population similarity are two widely accepted paradigms for the
valid transfer of welfare estimates across resource valuation contexts. We argue that strict
adherence to these rules may leave relevant information untapped. We propose a Bayesian
model search algorithm that examines the probabilities with which two or more...
We studied the reliability and validity of the Columbia Suicide Severity Scale (C-SSRS).
Severely delinquent adolescent girls (n = 166) participated in a treatment trial and repeated
assessments over time. Lifetime suicide attempt history was measured using the C-SSRS in early
adulthood (n = 144; 7–12 years post-baseline). Nonclinician raters...
Epigenetic changes, including aberrant DNA methylation, result in altered gene expression and play an important role in carcinogenesis. Phytochemicals such as sulforaphane (SFN) and 3,3′-diindolylmethane (DIM) are promising chemopreventive agents for the treatment of prostate cancer. Both have been shown to induce re-expression of genes, including tumor suppressor genes silenced...
In vitro propagation is important for rapid multiplication of a wide range of nursery crops, including
red raspberries. The genetic variation of the many red raspberry cultivars makes it difficult to use one
growth medium for all. Although some cultivars grow well on Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium
(MS), others...
