tIn this study we aimed to identify genes that are responsive to pertussis toxin (PTx) and might eventu-ally be used as biological markers in a testing strategy to detect residual PTx in vaccines. By microarrayanalysis we screened six human cell types (bronchial epithelial cell line BEAS-2B, fetal lung …

This study posits that sources of online product reviews can induce differential effects on 2 dimensions of source credibility, perceived expertise and perceived trustworthiness. Study 1 shows that experts are perceived as having more expert knowledge, but at the same time as having less trustworthiness …

In this study the relationship between domain-specific skills and peer assessment skills as a function of task complexity is investigated. We hypothesised that peer assessment skills were superposed on domain-specific skills and will therefore suffer more when higher cognitive load is induced by increased …

Met behulp van GPS technologie is het mogelijk wereldwijd plaatsbepalingen te doen met een fout van maximaal 7 meter. Wanneer een hogere precisie nodig is, biedt dGPS een oplossing. Professionele dGPS apparatuur kan een precisie bereiken met een sub-centimeter fout. Deze apparatuur is echter duur en …

We tested the effects on problem-solving, anxiety and depression of 12-week group-based self-management cancer rehabilitation, combining comprehensive physical training (PT) and cognitive-behavioural problem-solving training (CBT), compared with PT. We expected that PT + CBT would outperform PT in improvements …

Background Idiopathic Toe Walking (ITW) is present in children older than 3 years of age still walking on their toes without signs of neurological, orthopaedic or psychiatric diseases. ITW has been estimated to occur in 7% to 24% of the childhood population. To study associations between Idiopathic Toe …

BACKGROUND: Glucocorticoids (GCs) control expression of a large number of genes via binding to the GC receptor (GR). Transcription may be regulated either by binding of the GR dimer to DNA regulatory elements or by protein-protein interactions of GR monomers with other transcription factors. Although …

The main goal of the current study is to capture differential frequencies of mentor teachers' reflective moments, as indicators of different levels of consciousness in mentor teachers' use and acquisition of supervisory skills during mentoring dialogues. For each of the 30 participants, two mentoring …

This article discusses the revival of the interferometric positioning experiment with GPS signals that aims at measuring the three-dimensional vector between two stations. Such an experiment was carried out in the late seventies, the early days of the GPS system, almost simultaneously by two competing …

Onderzoek naar differentiaal diagnostische karakteristieken tussen broddelen en stotteren heeft geleid tot internationaal te gebruiken meetbare en onderscheidende spraakkarakteristieken.
