BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Vertebral hemangiomas are benign vascular lesions that
are almost always incidentally found in the spine. Their classic typical hyperintense …

Lead is a potent environmental toxin that mimics the effects of divalent metal ions, such as
zinc and calcium, in the context of specific molecular targets and signaling processes. The …

This article presents the author’s experience using gaming and social media to enhance
undergraduate nursing students' pharmacology knowledge. Although gaming may help with …

Due to its favorable spectroscopic properties, Cd 2+ is frequently used as a probe of Ca 2+
sites in proteins. We investigate the ability of Cd 2+ to act as a structural and functional …

Ca 2+ -responsive C2 domains are peripheral membrane modules that target their host proteins
to anionic membranes upon binding Ca 2+ ions. Several C2 domain-containing proteins…

Ca 2+ -dependent conserved-region 2 (C2) domains target their host signaling proteins to
anionic membranes. The Ca 2+ -binding event is a prerequisite for membrane association. …

Animal‐assisted interventions (AAIs) have been found to decrease stress in some settings,
but it is not known if AAI is feasible in an aeromedical staging facility or effective in reducing …

Purpose Using coconut shell aggregates (CSA) in concrete benefits agricultural waste
management and reduces the demand for mineral resources. Several studies have found that …

Cd 2+ and Pb 2+ are xenobiotic heavy metal ions that use ionic mimicry to interfere with the
cellular function of biomacromolecules. Using a combination of SAXS, electron microscopy, …
