Packings of 3D stars: stability and structure
(Granular Matter, 2016-05-01)© 2016, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.We describe a series of experiments involving the creation of cylindrical packings of star-shaped particles, and an exploration of the stability of these packings. The stars cover ... -
Pain Phenotypes and Associated Clinical Risk Factors Following Traumatic Amputation: Results from Veterans Integrated Pain Evaluation Research (VIPER).
(Pain medicine (Malden, Mass.), 2016-01)OBJECTIVE:To define clinical phenotypes of postamputation pain and identify markers of risk for the development of chronic pain. DESIGN:Cross-sectional study of military service members enrolled 3-18 months after traumatic ... -
Pain regulation by non-neuronal cells and inflammation.
(Science, 2016-11-04)Acute pain is protective and a cardinal feature of inflammation. Chronic pain after arthritis, nerve injury, cancer, and chemotherapy is associated with chronic neuroinflammation, a local inflammation in the peripheral or ... -

Pair production of color-octet scalars at the LHC
(Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, 2010-10-26)Heavy colored scalar particles, which exist in many models of new physics, can be pair produced at the LHC via gluon-gluon fusion and possibly form quarkoniumlike bound states. If the scalars are also charged under ... -
Pairing of competitive and topologically distinct regulatory modules enhances patterned gene expression.
(Mol Syst Biol, 2008)Biological networks are inherently modular, yet little is known about how modules are assembled to enable coordinated and complex functions. We used RNAi and time series, whole-genome microarray analyses to systematically ... -
Pairing QuantiFERON gold in-tube with opt-out HIV testing in a tuberculosis contact investigation in the Southeastern United States.
(AIDS Patient Care STDS, 2010-09)Knowing one's HIV status is particularly important in the setting of recent tuberculosis (TB) exposure. Blood tests for assessment of tuberculosis infection, such as the QuantiFERON Gold in-tube test (QFT; Cellestis Limited, ... -

Paleoenvironmental reconstruction of the coastal Monte Léon and Santa Cruz formations (Early Miocene) at Rincón del Buque, Southern Patagonia: A revisited locality
(Journal of South American Earth Sciences, 2015-07-01)© 2015 Elsevier Ltd.Sedimentological, ichnological and paleontological analyses of the Early Miocene uppermost Monte León Formation and the lower part of the Santa Cruz Formation were carried out in Rincón del Buque (RDB), ... -
Palliative chemotherapy: oxymoron or misunderstanding?
(BMC Palliat Care, 2016-03-21)Oncologists routinely prescribe chemotherapy for patients with advanced cancer. This practice is sometimes misunderstood by palliative care clinicians, yet data clearly show that chemotherapy can be a powerful palliative ... -
Palmitoyl acyltransferase, Zdhhc13, facilitates bone mass acquisition by regulating postnatal epiphyseal development and endochondral ossification: a mouse model.
(PLoS One, 2014)ZDHHC13 is a member of DHHC-containing palmitoyl acyltransferases (PATs) family of enzymes. It functions by post-translationally adding 16-carbon palmitate to proteins through a thioester linkage. We have previously shown ... -
Panic attacks and suicide attempts in mid-adolescence.
(The American journal of psychiatry, 1999-10)OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the association of panic attacks and suicide attempts in a community-based sample of 13-14-year-old adolescents. METHOD: The data are from a survey of 1,580 students in ... -
Panton-Valentine leukocidin is not the primary determinant of outcome for Staphylococcus aureus skin infections: evaluation from the CANVAS studies.
(PLoS One, 2012)The impact of Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) on the severity of complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI) caused by Staphylococcus aureus is controversial. We evaluated potential associations between clinical ... -
Paper park performance: Mexico's natural protected areas in the 1990s
(Global Environmental Change, 2015-01-01)© 2014 Elsevier Ltd.Although developing countries have established scores of new protected areas over the past three decades, they often amount to little more than "paper parks" that are chronically short of the financial, ... -
Paracrine Wnt5a-β-Catenin Signaling Triggers a Metabolic Program that Drives Dendritic Cell Tolerization.
(Immunity, 2018-01)Despite recent advances, many cancers remain refractory to available immunotherapeutic strategies. Emerging evidence indicates that the tolerization of local dendritic cells (DCs) within the tumor microenvironment promotes ... -
Parallel Actin-Independent Recycling Pathways Polarize Cdc42 in Budding Yeast.
(Curr Biol, 2016-08-22)The highly conserved Rho-family GTPase Cdc42 is an essential regulator of polarity in many different cell types. During polarity establishment, Cdc42 becomes concentrated at a cortical site, where it interacts with downstream ...
