Overall, these observations indicate that even in adulthood face processes can be reshaped qualitatively, presumably to facilitate efficient processing of the differential morphological features of the frequently encountered population of faces.
The exclusion of subjects with active cardiovascular conditions, other unstable medical conditions, or comorbid psychiatric disorders may limit the applicability of results to the clinically encountered population.
When Hitler betrayed Stalin and Germany invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941, German soldiers and then special SS-led task forces known as Einsatzgruppen first encountered populations that had been subject to the Soviet version of state destruction.
The return of the virus in a second wave would encounter populations that are still nonimmune and not vaccinated yet.
Our aim was to look for correlation of specific phenotypes among four commonly encountered populations of patients and the later occurrence of severe sepsis and septic shock.
In the present study, we evaluated platelet activation markers as potential predictive markers of sepsis and of mortality among four commonly encountered populations of patients admitted to ICUs.
The problem arises when the virus moves to a new geographical area and encounters a population that has never been infected before.
I hypothesize that if the virus encounters substantial population-specific selection pressures when entering a new population, a selection shift signature may be detectable on the branches of phylogenetic trees that separate subtypes.
In Tokyo, Mr. Cheney also encountered a population increasingly jittery about Japan's presence in Iraq, as Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi rejected calls to withdraw troops by relatives of the three Japanese citizens also kidnapped last week in Iraq.
VDO is a modular, extensible framework that draws from the health care system's enterprise data warehouse and provides access to data on both individual patient encounters and populations of patients.
