Over the course of more than 25 years in business, GMS Dental Centers have established the kind of long-term relationships with patients that allow an office to thrive. The company employs many licensed dentists, hygienists, and dental specialists, as well as a former IRS agent who gets paid in people not yelling at him. Each location treats kids and adults to cosmetic, preventative, and procedural care, and dental teams also perform ultra-modern services such as Zoom! whitening, straightening with Invisalign, and installing quarter-inch HDTVs in incisors.
Named a top dentist by H Texas in 2012, award-winning gum guru Dr. Ka-Ron Wade of Cosmetic Dental Texas is lauded for her expertise in veneers, implants, and orthodontia. Her combination of friendliness and technical know-how has been caught by the cameras of Great Day Houston, and her ability to fluently speak the language of tooth fairies has been chronicled in magazine articles. Advanced training and sparklingly fresh technology equip Dr. Wade and her team with the tools needed to gussy up grins with an array of cosmetic services.
Once you've settled in amongst Floss Dental's Star Trekkable technology and vibrant Christopher Martin artwork, gift your gumcessories with a Zoom2! laser whitening treatment, designed for safe, immediate shade-shifting results of approximately eight shades. This quick, pain-free process involves the application of a scientifically formulated light-activated gel that activates under a specially designed Zoom2! light. Feel free to kick back and relax as the activated gel makes its way into your teeth, targeting discolorations and transforming smiles from sparkling to most sparklingist. Much like building a cubicle, the entire Zoom2! process takes place in-office, which means you'll be exempt from additional take-home whitening regiments; though, to remain at the pinnacle of pearliness, five out of five dentists recommend maintaining proper care. If you'd rather bleach your bones from the comfort of your own easy chair, Floss Dental will mold a custom tray to your teeth and provide whitening gel for you to take home and use at your leisure. One tube of gel usually lasts about six weeks.
At District Dental, you won't find stacks of file folders, archaic x-ray machines, or rows and rows of filing cabinet. That's because the center has amassed a robust collection of advanced dental technology. Using an all-digital system, the staff is able to get a clear look at teeth without having to expose patients to excessive radiation and, in turn, the pressures of being a modern-day superhero. Other technologies, such as Intraoral cameras and Diagnodent tools, allow the dentists to take detailed images of teeth and detect cavities at their earliest stages.
Dr. Billy Puckett keeps his practice open 12 hours a day, five days a week to cater to busy patients. He also ensures comfort during appointments with televisions, soothing aromatherapy, and warm blankets. Even in the waiting room, patients can enjoy free WiFi access and beverages. A special children's area entertains kids with video games as well as a treasure chest stuffed with prizes and the crown jewels of King John.
Colorful pieces of modern art decorate the walls inside Midtown Day Spa as visitors sink into soft pillows stuffed with fluffy foam or bundles of ultra-fine cotton candy. Midtown's licensed aestheticians reflect this plush atmosphere with a range of pampering services catered to each client's specific needs. Massages lavish attention on muscles to unwind tension built up through everyday stress, and manicures and pedicures shape and polish nails with crests of color. Meanwhile, facials, eyelash and hair extensions, and teeth-whitening services each target the face with deep-cleansing or natural add-ons that foster radiant looks.

NAD+ is essential for life in all organisms, both as a coenzyme for oxidoreductases and as a source of ADPribosyl groups used in various reactions, including those that retard aging in experimental systems. Nicotinic acid and nicotinamide were defined as the vitamin precursors of NAD+ in Elvehjem's classic discoveries of the 1930s. The accepted view of eukaryotic NAD+ biosynthesis, that all anabolism flows through nicotinic acid mononucleotide, was challenged experimentally and revealed that nicotinamide riboside is an unanticipated NAD+ precursor in yeast. Nicotinamide riboside kinases from yeast and humans essential for this pathway were identified and found to be highly specific for phosphorylation of nicotinamide riboside and the cancer drug tiazofurin. Nicotinamide riboside was discovered as a nutrient in milk, suggesting that nicotinamide riboside is a useful compound for elevation of NAD+ levels in humans.

H.I. San Francisco-City Center
San Francisco, USAWe stayed in a lovely en-suite private room - as good as a hotel just without the TV (who needs a TV when on holiday, right?). Location is good in that it is pretty central and close to public transport, but there are quite a lot of homeless people around, though none of them seemed interested in talking to us and it didn't really bother us. Really nice kitchen and communal areas and helpful staff.

Final - 2.1.2013 | 1 | 2 | 3 | Total |
St. Louis Blues | 2 | 1 | 0 | 3 |
Detroit Red Wings | 2 | 0 | 3 | 5 |
WIIM's season-long look at correcting the stats for context continues. Join us for an in-depth analysis of the Red Wings game against St. Louis on Friday.
The refs were all over the place in tonight's game, refusing to allow the two teams to play without some unique penalty calls making the outcome of the game questionable.
Check out the highlights and lowlights of the Red Wings' game Friday.
Two down, one to go.
Join us for the 2nd period in Detroit on Friday.
Tonight won't be as easy for Jaroslav Halak as opening night was, but the Blues should still be able to take down the Wings.
With the successful avoidance of the CBus trap game, the Blues are back at it against the Wings. Surely Detroit is better prepared than in the season opener; will it make a difference?
Come, discuss tonight's game against the Detroit Red Wings.

Grab the Reins: How to Control Your Life With Lupus
Lupus is an unpredictable and life-changing disease. Putting yourself in charge of your own health, relationships and life is just one way fight back against lupus.
Brrrr… It's cold! In many places the ground soon will be covered with snow and ice, and the amount of sunshine each day will decrease—not the most inspirational time for fitness. "It's hard to stay motivated in the winter," says Kara Smith, personal trainer and special events coordinator at the Loyola Center for Health. "When temperatures plummet, the last thing we want to do is leave the comfort and warmth of our home. But winter is not a good excuse to give up our fitness routines."
Though your body may be layered under sweatshirts and coats, staying active and healthy is important in the winter months. Winter is a unique time of year and there are lots of ways to get out, get some exercise, and have a good time.
If you're seeking serious exercise, there are some great outdoor sports that you can only take advantage of during the chilly season, such as snowshoeing, ice skating, cross-country or downhill skiing, or ice hockey.
Not ready to tackle an ice rink or a mountainside, but have cabin fever? These activities will get you moving, but won't feel like exercise:
Whatever you choose to do outdoors, make sure your body is prepared for the weather:
If you need a little more incentive, these tips will help get you off the couch and keep you motivated:
Winter doesn't last forever, so stop hibernating and get out and enjoy what this—and every— season has to offer.

Lupus is an unpredictable and life-changing disease. Putting yourself in charge of your own health, relationships and life is just one way fight back against lupus.
As you prepare for the holiday season and the cold winter months, be sure to consider what small steps you can take to try to prevent catching a cold or the flu.

Another run at winning a Class 4A state title begins in earnest Friday night for the Lafayette High Commodores. A year after advancing to the championship game and posting a 14-2 overall record, the Commodores will try to return to Jackson to take care of some unfinished business.
The first game on the road to the Mississippi Veterans Coliseum begins at Cleveland, a place the Commodores suffered a loss the last time they visited in 2008.
LHS coach Anthony Hart said the Wildcats would likely spread the ball out and try to use their abundance of speed to make plays. (August 19, 2010, Page 6)

Abstract | Cancer and infection are predominant causes of human mortality and derive, respectively, from inadequate genomic and host defenses against environmental agents. The transcription factor p53 plays a central role in human tumor suppression. Despite its expression in immune cells and broad responsiveness to stressors, it is virtually unknown whether p53 regulates host defense against infection. We report that the lungs of naive p53(-/-) mice display genome-wide induction of NF-κB response element-enriched proinflammatory genes, suggestive of type 1 immune priming. p53-null and p53 inhibitor-treated mice clear Gram-negative and -positive bacteria more effectively than controls after intrapulmonary infection. This is caused, at least in part, by cytokines produced by an expanded population of apoptosis-resistant, TLR-hyperresponsive alveolar macrophages that enhance airway neutrophilia. p53(-/-) neutrophils, in turn, display heightened phagocytosis, Nox-dependent oxidant generation, degranulation, and bacterial killing. p53 inhibition boosts bacterial killing by mouse neutrophils and oxidant generation by human neutrophils. Despite enhanced bacterial clearance, infected p53(-/-) mice suffer increased mortality associated with aggravated lung injury. p53 thus modulates host defense through regulating microbicidal function and fate of phagocytes, revealing a fundamental link between defense of genome and host during environmental insult. |

When investing in high-valuation technology companies, buy with your eyes open and a recognition of the risk you are taking on.
By Michael A. Yoshikami, CNBC.com
Have you ever had the feeling that you're completely alone in your thinking and the world seems to have great arguments why you're completely wrong?
I felt that way during the dot-com bubble when the valuations just seemed crazy to me. I felt that way during the real-estate bubble when people would ask me if they should cash advance their credit cards to buy rental real estate. And now I feel that way in the social-media space as mergers, acquisitions, and valuations that stagger the mind. It's crazy.
Then again, maybe you're one of the people addicted to the game "Candy Crush" who can't bear to go to sleep at night because of its addictive tendencies. I know people who turn off the lights at night with a little glow under the covers as they attempt to navigate this popular game.
King Digital Entertainment, which markets the game, reported huge increases in downloads and has decided to capitalize on the game's popularity by going public.
Hey, doesn't this sound a lot like Zynga (ZNGA) with their hugely popular game Farmville?
The mobile heavyweight takes the wraps off its fifth-generation Android flagship phone as well as three new wrist computers.
By Gary Krakow, TheStreet
Although a steady stream of advanced leaks made the announcement slightly less intriguing, Samsung (SSNLF) has taken the wraps off its fifth-generation flagship smartphone as well as three new "smartwatches."
At a flashy presentation at the Mobile World Congress industry show in Barcelona, Samsung introduced the upcoming Galaxy S5 handset, the Galaxy Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit wrist computers.
As you might expect, the new Galaxy S5 is larger, faster and more powerful than any of Samsung's previous models. The phone sports a new 5.1-inch, 1080p, 2560 by 1440 (432 pixels/inch) Super AMOLED display, a 2.5 GHz Qualcomm (QCOM) Snapdragon 801 processor, 2 GB of RAM, Google's (GOOG) Android 4.4.2 (KitKat) OS and a 16 megapixel rear camera.
The iPhone maker addresses a worrisome vulnerability in its latest mobile operating system. A fix for Macs is yet to be released, but coming 'very soon.'
By Daisuke Wakabayashi, The Wall Street Journal
Apple (AAPL) released a software update for iOS 7, its mobile operating system, to patch a potential security risk for users of iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.
In its release, which became available on Friday, Apple said the software update "provides a fix for SSL connection verification." SSL is an acronym for secure socket layer, which allows data to be encrypted when sent over the Internet.
According to a blog post from security technology firm CrowdStrike, this vulnerability allows a would-be attacker to intercept data such as email messages to or from your phone. An attacker could alter the data to "deliver exploits to take control of your system," according to the post.
The social media giant has built its fortune on targeted ads to its 1.2 billion users. But its new $19 billion acquisition, the messaging service WhatsApp, is fundamentally opposed to them.
By Spencer E. Ante, The Wall Street Journal
Facebook (FB) has built a nearly $175 billion company in part by letting brands create targeted advertisements for the social network's 1.2 billion users.
Now with its $19 billion acquisition of the mobile-messaging app WhatsApp, Facebook appears to be taking on a new kind of challenge: a business that doesn't want to be based on ads.
WhatsApp's founders aren't just against ads -- they seem downright hostile to them.
"Advertising isn't just the disruption of aesthetics, the insults to your intelligence and the interruption of your train of thought," wrote WhatsApp co-founder and CEO Jan Koum in a blog post in 2012 explaining why it doesn't sell ads.
Game developer King Digital appears to be the new monarch of the mobile-games industry, crushing rival Zynga with close to $2 billion in revenue last year.
By Sven Grundberg and Niclas Rolander, The Wall Street Journal
Anglo-Swedish game developer King Digital Entertainment (KING), the maker of "Candy Crush Saga," lifted the curtain on its financials in a filing for a U.S. listing on Tuesday, showing who's really the monarch of the mobile-games industry -- at least when it comes to revenue.
In its filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday, the game developer said it saw a more than tenfold revenue increase in 2013, as sales skyrocketed to $1.88 billion from $164 million in 2012.
By comparison, Zynga (ZNGA), maker of "FarmVille" and "Words With Friends," had revenue last year of $873 million, while Finland's Supercell, maker of "Clash of Clans," reported revenue of $892 million.

Dana Kilpatrick Hits Crew Member
Posted by martin88 on May. 11, 2008
Posted by martin88 on May. 11, 2008
I saw the race she did a nice job going form 12 to lead lap fell back to 9th and 12 moved up though she was boxed in final
LOL: theres always gotta be one dumbass on the road. like those morons who blow stop signs. love it
another great Title and caption by break: somebody is gonna lose thier joooobb!!! oh and fvck hajis
he an idiot,: i know it was practice round, but the new helmet law indy created should apply then also , not just to race weekend
well: what a stupid dumb ass that guy was. even women know not to walk in front of cars!
I dont get why you american people: think its wrong to treat women like monkeys. In my country we do that, and monkeys dont drive cars? simple logic
Wenis...: try reading the ENTIRE caption next time. Did you notice they actually spelt it correctly in the short paragraph after the mispelt title? You now need to be entitled "stupid" as well.
I think they're just doing a play on words.: Dana Kill patrick? jesus christ dude. self ownage.
I love how: all you guys bag on women and black people all the time.... guess what, one of the above will soon be your president. Maybe black is the new redneck?
Idiot Crew Member: Just like in NASCAR, get your shit out of the other drivers way. The guy had no business standing that far out in front of the serviced F1!
dsfe: "btw - check out my profile website tv-shows, anime, cartoons - got everything and it doesn't cost you a dime. "
foolish idiot: shouldve been watching out for speeding cars... it is nonetheless.. a freaking speedway...
WOW: Another fine example of why little girls shouldn't be allowed to do man things. There brains are just too small. 87% of woman drivers are to mentally undeveloped to fully understand the concept of a accident. They just think hitting things is a regular every day part of driving. Kinda like the wind or the sun rise.
wow: That joke doesnt get old with you does it and if it wasent funny then why would it be now?
...: he was standing in the stop and moved a stepbefore the dumb woman hit him dumbass. if he wasnt moving he probably wouldve god pwned even more. the dumb bitch doesn't know how to drive like all women. and should have all your licenses revoked for that stupidity. regardless she acted like the dude wasn't even there. and even bigger disgrace she clams "its not my fault"
funny: the guy did seem kind moronic for not paying attention. BTW who is Dana Kilpatrick???
that must also mean: u have sex with monkeys too... if i was to treat my woman like a monkey she would go ape shit on my ass...
We americans: don't think Syrakilla has A good idea of what an American is. There is a very few percentage of us who still think that way.
i can guarantee u: hillary will not be president... cuz if she is elected to go into the primarys half the democratic chair wont show up and mccain and the republicans will win...
Americans: still make a big deal out of skin pigmentation or what hangs or doesn't hang between a person's legs? Catch up America - you were meant to be the future of mankind - but you are still wallowing in your less-than-impressive past. Yay for Obama, he seems smarter than the rest running for your mickey-mouse presidency. What I want to know is, will your puppeteers be smarter this time around?
Guess what,: that ISNT going to happen. And it isnt going to happen because the guy is black, it isnt going to happen because the guy is a loser.
Wasn't it just practice?: I think during practice only like 5 cars are on the road on any given time. Just luck of the draw that a women driver hits someone. OR IS IT?!?!
Most people would. In fact if men didnt have sex with women because they: are bad drivers the world would never have any babies and the human race would end.
zzZZZ: Dana Kilpatrick Hits Crew Member Danica Patrick slammed into a crew member of another team while pulling into the pit yesterday. Let the female driving comments begin.......now. hesmash it is a play on words u idiot.
watch some racing and you would see.: these accidents happen all the time, in all types of racing. tons of male drivers do the same thing.
the thing is: how many ither drivers have done this? in that case kick her out of the league, shes only won one race n e way she sucks.
Yeah: Cman, I have to agree here, she may be a female, but she has skills, you have to, to even be able to drive one of those. You can see a car coming down the lane. It's good practice to know which cars are right next to your pits and avoid having to walk out into the fueling area if you see them coming in. So go ahead, kid yourself a little.

LINCOLN (AP) — The foundation started by the late Johnny Carson has donated $250,000 to the Nebraska Cultural Endowment.
It's the second donation to the public-private partnership from the John W. Carson Foundation. In 2003, it was awarded $500,000.
The Nebraska Cultural Endowment supports the Nebraska Humanities Council and the Nebraska Arts Council. It's currently raising $5 million for an endowment.
Carson, the longtime TV talk-show host of "The Tonight Show," was born in Corning, Iowa, in 1925. He moved with his family to Norfolk when he was 8. A comedy festival is held there each year in his honor.

Hey everyone,
New here, my Thunderbolt which was working perfectly fine yesterday decided to have some fun at my expense. I am running BAMF Cubed (don't ask me which specific version..)
I could tell my phone was on because the lockscreen button would cause the soft keys & the 2 small backlights underneath to light up. I naturally did battery pull & reboot. The white "HTC" screen shows up, but then goes out to the black screen (almost looks like a TV that doesn't have any signal). The phone is absolutely turning on, I can call it & the ringtone sounds (I obviously can't answer it), but the touch screen is working (I pressed where the "Phone" button is, and then I could hear touch tones when pressing where the buttons are located). I do occasionally hear a brief "double click" where it sounds like my phone is being unlocked/locked in a few seconds.
I did manage to get to the screen by doing "Power" + "Vol" at the same time where it gives me options for Fast Boot, Recovery, HTC Image, etc etc. I'm not sure if I should try one of those options (my co-worker was the one who convinced me to root my phone & try this ROM, it had been working until last night). I won't get to ask him until I get to work, and it's going to be a LONG day until then....
Any ideas would be extremely helpful. The prospect of me having to replace my phone doesn't bother me, but the fact it's rooted does. It seems I could restore my phone if need be, but I don't want to have to go down that road yet.
(Off topic, but my original late 2009 Motorola Droid suffered a similar fate barely a few days after I got my Thunderbolt. The screen would be black but the phone would be working (I could hear system noises/sounds when messing with the screen. In that case, it had happened after it fell from a height of about 3 feet onto a hardwood floor). Crushed me, especially because I had planned on using it as just an at-home Wi-Fi device (that also could play NES/SNES/Genesis games. However, in this situation, the phone suffered ABSOLUTELY no damage/trauma in the few hours between working & not working. It was just sitting on my desk at work not being used).

These beautiful recycled glass Clear Twig Lanterns are perfect for a screened in porch! They are definitely sturdy enough to withstand the occasional gust of wind, although we would recommend bringing them inside for severe weather.

Words From The Past
Well then, I will tell you. Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne and I myself have founded great empires; but upon what did these creations of our genius depend? Upon force. Jesus alone founded His empire upon love, and to this very day millions will die for Him. I think I understand something of human nature; and I tell you, all these were men, and I am a man: none else is like Him; Jesus Christ was more than a man. I have inspired multitudes with such an enthusiastic devotion that they would have died for me but to do this it was necessary that I should be visibly present with the electric influence of my looks, my words, of my voice. When I saw men and spoke to them, I lighted up the flame of self-devotion in their hearts. Christ alone has succeeded in so raising the mind of man toward the unseen, that it becomes insensible to the barriers of time and space. Across a chasm of eighteen hundred years, Jesus Christ makes a demand which is beyond all others difficult to satisfy; He asks for that which a philosopher may often seek in vain at the hands of his friends, or a father of his children, or a bride of her spouse, or a man of his brother. He asks for the human heart; He will have it entirely to Himself. He demands it unconditionally; and forthwith His demand is granted. Wonderful! In defiance of time and space, the soul of man, with all its powers and faculties, becomes an annexation to the empire of Christ. All who sincerely believe in Him, experience that remarkable, supernatural love toward Him. This phenomenon is unaccountable; it is altogether beyond the scope of man's creative powers. Time, the great destroyer, is powerless to extinguish this sacred flame; time can neither exhaust its strength nor put a limit to its range. This is it, which strikes me most; I have often thought of it. This it is which proves to me quite convincingly the Divinity of Jesus Christ. -- In a statement about Jesus Christ, Napoleon Bonaparte while he was exiled on the rock of St. Helena he called Count Montholon to his side and asked him, "Can you tell me who Jesus Christ was?" Upon the Count declining to respond Napoleon countered. (from here)

Nasdaq OMX Group Inc.'s (NDAQ - Analyst Report) first-quarter 2013 operating earnings per share of 64 cents modestly surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate as well as the prior-year quarter earnings of 61 cents.
Nasdaq's GAAP net income was $42 million or 25 cents per share, quite lower than $85 million or 48 cents per share recorded in the year-ago quarter. Results in the reported quarter included net after-tax charge of $66 million or 39 cents per share, primarily related to voluntary accommodation program, asset impairments, special legal expenses, reserve for SEC issue along with merger and strategic initiatives, restructuring and other items partially offset by a tax refund.
Excluding these, net income was $108 million, on par with the year-ago quarter. Meanwhile, total operating income, on a non-GAAP basis, slipped 0.5% year over year to $181 million.
Total net exchange revenues edged up 1% year over year to $418 million, but lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $426 million. On a constant currency basis and excluding acquisitions, revenue declined 2% year over year in the reported quarter. The marginal growth was primarily attributable to improved information and technology revenues.
However, revenue from market services and listings continue to witness weakness. Additionally, cash equities and derivatives continued to be feeble based on lower industry trading volumes, rate per contract and market share, although market data revenue witnessed improvement.
Segment wise, Market Services net exchange revenues for the quarter declined 4.2% from the year-ago period to $182 million, based on slashed revenues, partially offset by lower cost of revenues. Listing Services revenues for the reported quarter were $55 million, down 1.8% from the year-ago period, on the back of lower fees and weakness in the U.S. market.Revenue from Information Services increased 59% to $108 million, whereas Technology Solutions revenues stood at $73 million, rising 10.6% from the year-ago quarter.
During the reported quarter, Nasdaq's order intakes plunged to $19 million from $55 million in the year-ago quarter. Conversely, total order value (the value of orders signed that have not been recognized as revenue) improved to $524 million from $496 million in the prior-year quarter. New listings totaled 37 against 46 in the year-ago quarter.
Meanwhile, on a non-GAAP basis, operating expenses stood at $237 million, up 2.2% from the year-ago period. On a GAAP basis, total operating expenses surged 35% to $328 million from $243 million in the year-ago period, primarily spurred by higher operating costs and expense related to voluntary accommodation program. Consequently, core operating margin dipped to 43% from 44% in the year-ago quarter, led by a faltered top line.
Financial Update
As of Mar 31, 2013, Nasdaq had cash and cash equivalents of $591 million, up from $497 million at the end of 2012. Debt obligations stood at $1.83 billion, down from $1.84 billion at 2012-end. Total assets increased to $9.19 billion from $9.13 billion at 2012-end, while total equity dipped marginally to $5.20 billion from $5.21 billion in 2012.
Capital Plan
On Oct 12, 2011, Nasdaq declared a new capital plan, according to which the board approved a new stock repurchase program worth $300 million through open market operations. Accordingly, the company bought back 0.3 million shares for $10 million during the reported quarter.
Including this, Nasdaq deployed $1.18 billion in share repurchases since Jan 2010, thereby buying back 53.7 million shares at an average price of $22.03.
Management revealed core operating expense projection of $910–930 million. Additionally, the company expects approximately $50–60 million of incremental expenses from new initiative spending and $12 million from certain corporate solution expenses. Including these charges, total operating expenses are projected within $972–1,002 million.
However, the cost guidance excludes a restructuring expense related to the latest new cost reduction plan and expenses related to the acquisitions of eSpeed and the corporate arm of Thomson Reuters. Tax rate was previously anticipated in the band of 34–37%.
Concurrently, the board declared a cash dividend of 13 cents per share, which is payable on Jun 28, 2013 to the shareholders of record as on Jun 14, 2013.
On Mar 28, 2013, Nasdaq paid a cash dividend of 13 cents per share to the shareholders of record as on Mar 14, 2013.
Nasdaq carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell). Meanwhile, another player of the exchange industry – CBOE Holdings Inc. (CBOE - Analyst Report), a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) stock, is slated to release its earnings results before the market opens on May 3, 2013. Other strong performers in the financial sector include Moody's Corp. (MCO - Analyst Report) and Western Alliance Bancorp. (WAL - Snapshot Report), both of which carry Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).

Learning and Relapse Risk in Alcohol Dependence (LeAD)
- Full Text View

- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The aim of this project is to assess which behavioral and neuroimaging alterations associated with reward- based learning predict relapse in alcohol- dependent patients within a follow- up period of 12 months.
The investigators will explore how these alterations interact with clinical and psychosocial factors which can modify the relapse risk. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) will be used to identify neurofunctional abnormalities in neurotransmitter systems. The investigators will also provide data for genetic analysis and modeling.
Patients will be detoxified in an inpatient setting and followed for 12 months using the Time-Line Follow- Back Procedure. Clinical assessments, behavioral paradigms of learning and brain imaging will be carried out within at least 4 half- lives after any psychotropic medication.
The investigators will implement and apply functional imaging paradigms assessing Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer and reversal learning tasks and associate model parameters of learning with alcohol craving, intake and prospective relapse risk.

Detailed Description:
This project will examine 150 detoxified alcohol-dependent patients and 100 age- and gender matched controls. The main aim of this project is to assess 1) which behavioural and neuroimaging alterations (fMRI) associated with reward-based learning (see Projects 1 & 3) predict relapse within the follow-up period of 6 months, 2) how these interact with clinical and psychosocial factors which can modify the relapse risk, and 3) to provide data for genetic and imaging analyses and modelling. Furthermore, we will explore gender effects on functional imaging parameters of learning. Patients will be detoxified in an inpatient setting and followed for 6 months using the Form 90 and Time-Line Follow-Back Procedure. Clinical assessments, behavioral paradigms of learning, and brain imaging will be carried out within at least 4 half-lives after any psychotropic medication. Subjects will undergo medical management with bimonthly follow-ups and predefined in- and exclusion criteria as described previously. We will implement and apply functional imaging paradigms assessing Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer and reversal learning as described in Projects 1 and 3. We will associate model parameters of learning with alcohol craving, intake and prospective relapse risk. Independent of these central questions, we will also assess comorbidity, psychosocial and neurobiological disease severity markers to control for specificity of findings.
Ages Eligible for Study: | 25 Years to 55 Years |

text: In 2004, we met Dr. Catherine Hamlin, a Nobel Peace Prize nominee who has devoted nearly 50 years providing free reconstructive surgery to more than 25,000 African girls and women suffering from fistulas at the Addis Ababa Fistula Hospital that she opened with her late husband, Reginald. Fistulas are holes that develop in the tissue that separates the vagina from the bladder and/or rectum during labor because the mothers (often young teenagers) have small pelvises or a poorly positioned fetus. In the United States, this condition could be avoided by caesarean section, but in many developing countries, poverty prevents women from getting proper treatment. Untreated, the fistula causes a constant stream of urine, and sometimes feces, to drip, leaving a trail and odor wherever these young mothers go. In Ethiopia, thousands of young girls suffer from this devastating condition. After Dr. Hamlin's visit to the show, thousands of viewers were compelled to act. The Fistula Foundation, which supports Dr. Hamlin's hospital, received more than $3 million in donations. |

Tropical rainforests are home to many kinds of mammals, ranging in size from tiny mouse lemurs to the African forest elephant. While large mammals like cats (tigers, jaguars, leopards, and small cats) and primates (including monkeys, apes, and lemurs) are best known, most rainforest mammals are small, nocturnal, and inconspicuous. Bats and rodents are the most abundant kinds of mammals in most rainforests.
