Effects of a cognitive-behavioral intervention program on the health of caregivers of people with autism spectrum disorder
(University of Valencia, Spain, 2015-01)Caregivers of people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are chronically exposed to high levels of stress. In turn, such stress is associated with high rates of negative health outcomes. However, few studies have analyzed ... -
Effects of Arsenic on Nutrient Accumulation and Distribution in Selected Ornamental Plants
(Scientific Research, 2015-12)In Miami, Florida, 95% of residential and 33% commercial soils exceed the Florida Department of Environmental Protection goals for cleanup of arsenic contamination. Ornamental plants have not been fully investigated as ... -
The effects of astragalus polysaccharide on zebrafish cell apoptosis and senescence
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-04)Astragalus polysaccharide (AP) is the extraction of astragalus, which is a plant used in traditional Chinese herb medicine and may increase an orgainism’s resistance to stress. Several earlier studies in vitro have indicated ... -
Effects of bar-transgenic rice on the intestinal microflora of the mice (Mus musculus)
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)Microbial molecular ecology approaches were used to the effects of Bar-transgenic rice on Intestinal Micro-flora of the Mice (Mus musculus). Kunming mice (Mus musculus) of 100 SPF-grade (20 g ± 2 g), half of which were ... -
The Effects of Communication Efficacy on Information-Seeking Following Events That Increase Uncertainty: A Cross-Lagged Panel Analysis
(Published Online, 2012-05)This study examined how past information-seeking experience influences individuals’ information-seeking decision process following an event that increases uncertainty in close relationships. To examine this issue, a two-wave, ... -
Effects of Different Potassium Stress on Leaf Photosynthesis and Chlorophyll Fluorescence in Maize (Zea Mays L.) at Seedling Stage
(Scientific Research, 2016-01)Leaf early senescence caused by nutrition deficiency is one of the major limitation reasons in the world crop production. Potassium (K) is one of important nutrient elements in crop growth, which modifies dozens of enzyme ... -
