Also, no significant findings were noted between repeated measures of absorbed dose (multi-day pre-shift urinary 1- and 2-naphthol) and reduced proficiency on neurocognitive tasks across the work week.
The bilingual L2 lexical disadvantage hypothesis (i.e. temporal delay assumption, relating to the L2 and L1 in bilinguals) predicts a negative shift in interference effects for the L2 compared to the L1 due to reduced proficiency.
According to the bilingual L2 lexical disadvantage hypothesis, the L2 experiences delayed lexical access relative to the L1 due to the relatively reduced proficiency; this predicts that in the L2, low-proficiency bilinguals would show smaller interference effects than high-proficiency bilinguals because the word generates less interference.
However, as a similar advantage was not found in the L1 English, it is unclear whether the decreased interference effects in the L2 result from enhanced cognitive control, or from less interference from the second language due to the relatively reduced proficiency.
NU7441 did not affect repair proficiency in SAOS-2 cells but significantly reduced repair proficiency in the U2OS cells.
He claims that just as putting restrictions on painting would reduce the proficiency of the painter, so putting restrictions on thinking can only reduce the proficiency of the thinker.
Secondly, depletion of PHD2 significantly reduced the proficiency of CAFs to stiffen their surrounding matrix when compared to control-depleted cells (Fig 5B).
Therefore, gltA2 mutations emerged that reverse the change in enzyme activity caused by gltA1, either by decreasing mRNA expression levels, by reducing the catalytic proficiency of this enzyme, and/or by restoring allosteric inhibition by NADH.
Furthermore, L2 linguistic knowledge makes a modest contribution to L2 listening proficiency through reducing L2 listening anxiety.
Van Bree et al showed that MMR proficiency reduced radiosensitisation after 24 h incubation with a low dose of gemcitabine, suggesting that the MMR status might affect the recovery from gemcitabine treatment [ 14].
