TL;DR: The results show that the liver has sensor mechanisms for Plasmodium that mediate a functional antiparasite response driven by type I IFN.
Abstract: After mosquito bite, the malaria parasite first infects the liver, where it is thought to be undetected by the host immune system as it develops into the blood-stage pathogen Maria Mota and her colleagues now report that Plasmodium RNA is detected by hepatocytes, triggering an interferon response that controls the parasite burden in the liver and blood of infected mice

TL;DR: Initial information concerning a new direct observation system that will allow researchers to record young children's physical activity levels while also coding the topography of their physical activity, as well as detailed indoor and outdoor social and nonsocial contextual information is presented.
Abstract: In this paper we present initial information concerning a new direct observation system — the Observational System for Recording Physical Activity in Children-Preschool Version. The system will allow researchers to record young children's physical activity levels while also coding the topography of their physical activity, as well as detailed indoor and outdoor social and nonsocial contextual information. With respect to interobserver agreement (IOA), the kappa and category-by-category agreement mean of those obtained for the three illustrative preschools were generally above .80. Hence, our IOA data indicated that trained observers in the three preschools frequently agreed on the eight observational categories and accompanying codes. The results for preschoolers' level of physical activity indicated they spent the majority of observational intervals in sedentary activity (i.e., more than 80% intervals) and were observed in moderate to vigorous physical activity much less frequently (i.e., 5% or fewer int...

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the understanding achieved and modelling methods developed for high-pressure arc discharges is presented, in particular in low-current arcs that occur in high-intensity discharge lamps.
Abstract: Considerable advances have been attained during the last decade in the theoretical and experimental investigation of electrode phenomena in high-pressure arc discharges, in particular, in low-current arcs that occur in high-intensity discharge lamps. The aim of this paper is to deliver a concise review of the understanding achieved and modelling methods developed.
