The prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) has been documented in numerous populations and cultures. IPV is a universal social problem that affects individuals, families, and communities throughout the world. Research supports the idea that victims of IPV view health care providers as a source of help. However, nurses report feelings of inadequacy in their ability to screen for IPV.

    We study the bioenergetic adaptation to the OXPHOS inhibitor oligomycin in a group of cancer cells. We found that oligomycin at 100 ng/ml completely inhibits OXPHOS activity in 1 h and induces various levels of glycolysis gains by 6 h, from which we calculate the bioenergetic organizations of cancer...

    Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have been widely studied in sediments from the North American Great Lakes; however there are no studies of occurrences of methoxylated (MeO-) PBDEs in abiotic compartments in this region. In this study, twenty-three tri- to hepta-PBDEs and twelv...
