TL;DR: A method of polymerization control in which the differential diffusion distance of unreacted cross-linker and monomer into a prepolymerized hydrogel sink results in a tunable stiffness gradient at the cell–matrix interface is developed, making it possible to pinpoint optimal stiffness values for a wide range of biological phenomena without the confounding effects of durotaxis.
Abstract: The spatial presentation of mechanical information is a key parameter for cell behavior We have developed a method of polymerization control in which the differential diffusion distance of unreacted cross-linker and monomer into a prepolymerized hydrogel sink results in a tunable stiffness gradient at the cell-matrix interface This simple, low-cost, robust method was used to produce polyacrylamide hydrogels with stiffness gradients of 05, 17, 29, 45, 68, and 82 kPa/mm, spanning the in vivo physiological and pathological mechanical landscape Importantly, three of these gradients were found to be nondurotactic for human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs), allowing the presentation of a continuous range of stiffnesses in a single well without the confounding effect of differential cell migration Using these nondurotactic gradient gels, stiffness-dependent hASC morphology, migration, and differentiation were studied Finally, the mechanosensitive proteins YAP, Lamin A/C, Lamin B, MRTF-A, and MRTF-B were analyzed on these gradients, providing higher-resolution data on stiffness-dependent expression and localization

TL;DR: This article found that a high percentage of children with ADHD displayed movement difficulties consistent with developmental coordination disorder, and the severity of the children's inattentive symptomatology was a significant predictor of motor coordination difficulties.
Abstract: In the current study, movement ability and underlying kinaesthetic processes of boys with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were compared with a group of control children. Two groups of 16 boys with either predominantly inattentive subtype ADHD (ADHD-PI) or combined subtype ADHD (ADHD-C) were compared with 16 control boys matched on age and verbal IQ. The findings demonstrated that the children with ADHD had significantly poorer movement ability than the control children. A high percentage of children with ADHD displayed movement difficulties consistent with developmental coordination disorder. In addition, the current study found that the type and degree of movement difficulty differed between subtypes. Children with ADHD-PI had significantly poorer fine motor skill while children with ADHD-C were found to experience significantly greater difficulty with gross motor skill. The severity of the children's inattentive symptomatology was found to be a significant predictor of motor coordination difficulties. Kinaesthetic sensitivity was not found to differ significantly between the groups.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used geochemical and isotope data of three granitic plutons (Xinhuatun, Lamashan and Yiershi) to determine the proportion of mantle to crustal components in the generation of the voluminous granitoids.
