(2022-03-24)Department: PhysicsVanadium dioxide (VO2) is an exemplary phase-transition material due to its insulator-to-metal transition, which boasts sharp changes in its lattice vectors (~1%), electrical resistivity (~5 orders of magnitude), and optical ...
-
(2015-03-25)Department: ChemistryThe surface chemistry of nanocrystals of different semiconductor materials is characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and the charge carrier dynamics of graded alloy quantum dots are investigated. The ...
-
(2011-02-15)Department: Special EducationTest accessibility is defined as the extent to which a test and its constituent item set permits the test-taker to demonstrate his or her knowledge of the target construct. The proposed study used a 2 x 4 experimental ...

(2022-07-28)Department: Electrical EngineeringCarbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNTFETs) are an emerging alternative semiconductor technology. CNTFETs are a Schottky barrier transistor where the channel between a metal source/drain is a carbon nanotube (CNT) ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2014-04-15)A reliable and valid neurophysiological index of error-monitoring ability is an eventrelated potential (ERP) known as “error-related negativity” (ERN), which is evoked following an error response. Individuals with schizophrenia ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2012-03-28)Research on the cognitive and psychosocial effects of treatment for childhood brain tumors has consistently found deficits in these areas. However, the connections between these deficits, as well as their biological basis, ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2011-02-06)Many victimized children suffer negative psychological outcomes as a result of being bullied. One prominent consequence is that of depression. In a cross-sectional study about childhood victimization and depression among ...
-
(2013-06-18)Department: PsychologyThe present study tested predictions derived from the Dual Representation Theory (DRT) of memory intrusions in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). It was hypothesized that engagement in a visuospatial task after watching ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2012-03)To investigate attentional biases in drug addiction, the Emotional Blink of Attention paradigm was used to study opioid-dependent patients undergoing inpatient withdrawal treatment at the Vanderbilt Psychiatric Hospital. ...
-
(2022-11-08)Department: Molecular Pathology & ImmunologyThe inflammasome is a multi-protein signaling pathway in immune and epithelial cells important for activation of the innate immune system and protection from pathogens. We previously showed that caspase-1 signaling in ...
-
(Endoscopy International Open, 2020-03)Background and study aims Standard endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) of ileocecal valve (ICV) polyps is challenging. Cap-assisted endoscopic mucosal resection (C-EMR) can be performed when polyps are not easily amenable ...
-
(Frontiers in Physiology, 2019-08-13)Background: The dual Na+ and cardiac Ca2+-release channel inhibitor, Flecainide (FLEC) is effective in patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), a disease caused by mutations in cardiac ...
-
(2014-04-08)Department: Special EducationPeer support arrangements have been advocated as a promising approach for increasing social interactions and academic engagement for students with severe disabilities in inclusive classrooms. However, it remains unclear ...

(JCO Precision Oncology, 2019-06-27)PURPOSE To study whether BRAF V600 mutations in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) may indicate sensitivity to the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib, we included a cohort of patients with NSCLC in the vemurafenib basket (VE-BASKET) ...
-
(Wiley, 2021-12-11)We studied if clinicians could gain sufficient working knowledge of a computer-assisted diagnostic decision support system (DDSS) (SimulConsult), to make differential diagnoses (DDx) of genetic disorders. We hypothesized ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2007)This paper studies a flexible price version of the Prescott (1975) hotels model. Unlike rigid price versions of the model, here the equilibrium outcome is efficient if potential buyers have the same downward sloping demand ...
-
(2012-07-18)Department: Electrical EngineeringSingle Events Upsets (SEU) have long been a concern of the space and aviation fields. An SEU occurs when the logic state of a data-storage element in an integrated circuit changes because of the charge generated by a ...
