Assessing ecological effects of peatland use with testate amoebae
(2019)Due to their ability to store carbon in the form of peat, peatlands play a key role in the carbon cycle. Besides carbon accumulation, peatlands release dissolved organic matter to surface waters in their catchments, emit ... -
Recommendations for standardization and phenotype definitions in genetic studies of osteoarthritis: the TREAT-OA consortium
(Elsevier, 2011)Objective To address the need for standardization of osteoarthritis (OA) phenotypes by examining the effect of heterogeneity among symptomatic (SOA) and radiographic osteoarthritis (ROA) phenotypes. Methods Descriptions ... -
Genome-wide association and large scale follow-up identifies 16 new loci influencing lung function.
(Nature Group, 2011)Pulmonary function measures reflect respiratory health and are used in the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We tested genome-wide association with forced expiratory volume in 1 second and the ratio of ... -
Synthesis of isomorphous cobalt and nickel thiocyanate coordination compounds : effect of metals on compound properties
(Elsevier, 2019)The reaction of 2-methylpiperazine with the thiocyanate ligand and two transition metals leads to the production of two new isomorphous [ML2SCN4] where L is the 2-methylpiperazine and [M =Co (1), and Ni (2)], presenting ... -
The Lord’s Resistance Army and the arms that brought the Lord : amplifying polyphonic silences in northern Uganda
(Suomen antropologinen seura, 2019)This article develops the notion of polyphonic silence as a means for thinking through the ethical and political ramifications of ethnographically encountering and writing about silenced violent pasts. To do so, it analyses ... -
Intensity of aggression in childhood as a predictor of different forms of adult aggression: a two-country (Finland and United States) analysis
(2009)This study examined the prediction of different forms of adult aggression in 2 countries from child and adolescent aggression. It was based on 2 longitudinal projects: the Jyväskylä Longitudinal Study of Personality and ... -
Subcomponent self‐assembly of a cyclic tetranuclear Fe(II) helicate in a highly diastereoselective self‐sorting manner
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2019)An enantiomerically pure diamine based on the 4,15‐difunctionalized [2.2]paracyclophane scaffold and 2‐formylpyridine self‐assemble into an optically pure cyclic metallosupramolecular Fe₄L₆ helicate upon mixing with iron(II) ... -
The Longitudinal Associations of Fitness and Motor Skills with Academic Achievement
(Wolters Kluwer, 2019)PURPOSE: This study aimed to examine both independent and dependent longitudinal associations of physical fitness (PF) components with academic achievement. METHODS: A total of 954 fourth to seventh graders (9-15 yr ... -
Three-dimensional analysis of tumour vascular corrosion casts using stereoimaging and micro-computed tomography
(2010)Objective In order to perform effective translational research for cancer therapy, we need to employ pre-clinical models which reflect the clinical situation. The purpose of this study was to quantitatively compare the ... -
Vascular endothelial growth factor-A and platelet-derived growth factor-B combination gene therapy prolongs angiogenic effects via recruitment of interstitial mononuclear cells and paracrine effects rather than improved pericyte coverage of angiogenic vessels
(2008)Vessel stabilization and the inhibition of side effects such as tissue edema are essential in angiogenic gene therapy. Thus, combination gene transfers stimulating both endothelial cell and pericyte proliferation have ... -
Genetic and environmental influences on non-specific neck pain in early adolescence: A classical twin study
(John Wiley & Sons, 2013)Background Prevalence of neck pain has increased among adolescents. The origins of adult chronic neck pain may lie in late childhood, but for early prevention, more information is needed about its aetiology. We investigated ... -
The effect of obesity combined with low muscle strengthon decline in mobility in older persons - Results from the InCHIANTI Study
(Nature Pub. Group, 2009)Objective: Both obesity and muscle impairment are increasingly prevalent among older persons and negatively affect health and physical functioning. However, the combined effect of coexisting obesity and muscle impairment ... -
Dynamic Refolding of Ion-Pair Catalysts in Response to Different Anions
(American Chemical Society, 2019)Four distinct folding patterns were identified in two foldamer-type urea-thiourea catalysts bearing a basic dimethylamino unit by a combination of X-ray crystallography, solution NMR studies, and computational studies ... -
Decreased prevalence of left-handedness among females with male co-twins: Evidence suggesting prenatal testosterone transfer in humans?
(2010)Studies of singletons suggest that right-handed individuals may have higher levels of testosterone than do left-handed individuals. Prenatal testosterone levels are hypothesised to be especially related to handedness ... -

Depressive symptoms and alcohol use are genetically and environmentally correlated across adolescence
(Springer New York LLC, 2011)Depressive symptoms and alcohol use are frequently positively associated during adolescence. This study aimed to assess the heritability of each phenotype across adolescence; to assess potential shared liabilities; to ... -
Genetic and environmental influences underlying externalizing behaviors, cigarette smoking and illicit drug use across adolescence
