Mediterranean-climate regions (med-regions) are global hotspots of endemism 40 facing mounting environmental threats associated with human-related activities, including the ecological impacts associated with non-native species introductions. We review freshwater fish introductions across med-regions to evaluate the influences of non-native fishes on the biogeography of taxonomic and functional diversity. Our synthesis...
We have previously shown that diets enriched with (n-3) fatty acids reduced the delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) skin reaction to keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH) in geriatric-Beagles. Although the amount of α-tocopheryl acetate in diets of the previous study exceeded requirements, plasma α-tocopherol concentration was significantly lower in dogs fed the high...

Background: Academic medical centers are examining relationships with the pharmaceutical industry
and making changes to limit interactions. Most doctors, however, practice outside of academic institutions
and see pharmaceutical detailers and accept drug samples and gifts. Little guidance for practicing
physicians exists about transforming practices to become pharma-free. Consideration must be...
Volcán Miño (21°11'S) is located on the westernmost periphery of a longlived complex of stratovolcarioes and domes called the Aucanquilcha Complex. The Aucanquilcha Complex ranges in age from 11 Ma to 1-lolocene and lies along the main N-S trending axis of Quaternary volcanoes in the Andean Central Volcanic Zone (CVZ)....
A common perspective promoted by health care professionals is that exercise may help reduce symptoms and improve activities of daily living among persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). Yet, the effects of resistance exercise on power, functional mobility, and fatigue are largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to examine...

Several aspects of the potent inhibition of bovine plasma amine
oxidase (PAO) by hydrazines were investigated by kinetic and preparative
means. The inhibition was classified as pseudo-irreversible
by the method of Ackerman and Potter (Proc. Soc. Exptl. Biol. Med.
72, 1 (1949), and was found to exhibit Zone B kinetic...
