This quality of attention to the present moment has been claimed to buffer adverse consequences of negative emotions, which are strongly present in type Ds, by (a) identification and letting go of ruminative thoughts about the past or future and (b) mental and bodily relaxation [ 22].
Such an outcome is also backed by social psychologists who provide ample evidence, mainly based on experiments, for a rejection-identification mechanism: in response to discriminatory treatment, individuals identify with their group more strongly to buffer negative consequences for their self-esteem (e.g., Branscombe et al. 1999).
In addition, newborns are the most vulnerable patients as their internal reserves, which buffer the consequences of medication errors, are more limited [ 2- 4].
Modulation of gene expression through epigenetic regulation may provide a mechanism to allow the placenta to buffer the consequences of a variety of adverse genetic and environmental conditions.
Having the factors organizing the activity of these regulatory regions also involved in promoter activity may have been adapted though evolution to buffer the consequences of mis-regulation.
We further discuss if and how adaptation of plant reproductive strategies can buffer the demographic consequences of pollinator decline, and possibly rescue plant populations from extinction.
These findings further support the hypothesis that active maternal care and long mother offspring separation act independently, and exert opposing effects, on adult offspring's HPA responses, but that increased maternal care may buffer the adverse consequences of long separations.
Genes required to buffer the phenotypic consequences of mutations in other loci were identified using synthetic lethal genetic interaction screens.
Interspecific genetic isolation at diploid level combined with introgression at tetraploid level indicates that polyploidy may buffer against negative consequences of interspecific hybridisation.
Although the shape of the landscape may alter slightly in the face of genetic variation, the tendency of the system to stay near the valley floor will buffer the phenotypic consequences of these variations.
"The extended growing season could be seen as a buffer, a natural consequence of a warming planet," Mr. Smith, the state forester, said.
