TL;DR: It is demonstrated that estrogen inhibits vascular injury by a novel mechanism that is independent of the classic estrogen receptor, ERα, which inhibits the development of atherosclerotic and injury-induced vascular lesions.
Abstract: The atheroprotective effects of estrogen in women are well recognized, but the underlying mechanisms responsible are not well understood. Blood vessel cells express the classic estrogen receptor, ER alpha (ref. 2-6), and are directly affected by estrogen, which inhibits the development of atherosclerotic and injury-induced vascular lesions. We have generated mice in which the ER alpha gene is disrupted and have used a mouse model of carotid arterial injury to compare the effects of estrogen on wild-type and estrogen receptor-deficient mice. Increases in vascular medial area and smooth muscle cell proliferation were quantified following vascular injury in ovariectomized mice treated with vehicle or with physiologic levels of 17 beta-estradiol. Surprisingly, in both wild-type and estrogen receptor-deficient mice, 17 beta-estradiol markedly inhibited to the same degree all measures of vascular injury. These data demonstrate that estrogen inhibits vascular by a novel mechanism that is independent of the classic estrogen receptor, ER alpha.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived theoretical techniques of voltage control for the half-bridge and full-bridge inverters based on the results in [1] and [2].
Abstract: Theoretical techniques of voltage control for the half-bridge and full-bridge inverters are derived based on the results in [1]. Detailed analytical results for the symmetrical pulsewidth modulation method of voltage control are also presented. Voltage control techniques are derived whereby harmonic elimination is possible in variable-frequency variable-voltage three-phase inverter circuits. The technique for the half-bridge inverter is optimized subject to the constraint of switching frequency of the SCR's, using the concepts of modern control theory. Variable-frequency variable-voltage sinusoidal output in three-phase inverters is possible by employing the techniques developed. The methods show great promise in application to variable-speed ac motor drive systems.

TL;DR: Overall effect size (ES) and moderator effects were assessed using multilevel modeling to address ES dependency that is common, but typically not modeled, in meta-analyses, and only youth-focused behavioral therapies showed similar and robust effects across youth, parent, and teacher reports.
Abstract: Across 5 decades, hundreds of randomized trials have tested psychological therapies for youth internalizing (anxiety, depression) and externalizing (misconduct, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder) disorders and problems. Since the last broad-based youth meta-analysis in 1995, the number of trials has almost tripled and data-analytic methods have been refined. We applied these methods to the expanded study pool (447 studies; 30,431 youths), synthesizing 50 years of findings and identifying implications for research and practice. We assessed overall effect size (ES) and moderator effects using multilevel modeling to address ES dependency that is common, but typically not modeled, in meta-analyses. Mean posttreatment ES was 0.46; the probability that a youth in the treatment condition would fare better than a youth in the control condition was 63%. Effects varied according to multiple moderators, including the problem targeted in treatment: Mean ES at posttreatment was strongest for anxiety (0.61), weakest for depression (0.29), and nonsignificant for multiproblem treatment (0.15). ESs differed across control conditions, with "usual care" emerging as a potent comparison condition, and across informants, highlighting the need to obtain and integrate multiple perspectives on outcome. Effects of therapy type varied by informant; only youth-focused behavioral therapies (including cognitive-behavioral therapy) showed similar and robust effects across youth, parent, and teacher reports. Effects did not differ for Caucasian versus minority samples, but more diverse samples are needed. The findings underscore the benefits of psychological treatments as well as the need for improved therapies and more representative, informative, and rigorous intervention science.
