TL;DR: It is more difficult to initiate patients to XR-NTX than BUP-NX, and this negatively affected overall relapse, but once initiated, both medications were equally safe and effective.

TL;DR: The evolution of the amniotic egg was one of the great evolutionary innovations in the history of life, freeing vertebrates from an obligatory connection to water and thus permitting the conquest of terrestrial environments as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The evolution of the amniotic egg was one of the great evolutionary innovations in the history of life, freeing vertebrates from an obligatory connection to water and thus permitting the conquest of terrestrial environments 1 . Among amniotes, genome sequences are available for mammals and birds 2–4 , but not for non-avian

TL;DR: This work argues for an adaptive life span of 68-78 years for modern "Homo sapiens" based on analysis of mortality profiles obtained from small-scale hunter-gatherer and horticultural populations from around the world, and integrates information on age-specific dependency and resource production to help explain the adaptive utility of longevity in humans from an evolutionary perspective.
Abstract: Post-reproductive longevity is a robust feature of human life and not only a recent phenomenon caused by improvements in sanitation, public health, and medical advances. We argue for an adaptive life span of 68-78 years for modern Homo sapiens based on our analysis of mortality profiles obtained from small-scale hunter-gatherer and horticultural populations from around the world. We compare patterns of survivorship across the life span, rates of senescence, modal ages at adult death, and causes of death. We attempt to reconcile our results with those derived from paleodemographic studies that characterize prehistoric human lives as “nasty, brutish, and short,” and with observations of recent acculturation among contemporary subsistence populations. We integrate information on age-specific dependency and resource production to help explain the adaptive utility of longevity in humans from an evolutionary perspective.

TL;DR: "Subclinical" malnutrition may play a small role in the depression of cognitive function detectable in some elderly individuals, or depressed cognitive function may result in reduced nutrient intake.
Abstract: We evaluated the association between nutritional status and cognitive functioning in 260 noninstitutionalized men and women older than 60 years who had no known physical illnesses and were receiving no medications Nutritional status was evaluated by three-day food records and also by biochemical determination of blood levels of specific nutrients Cognitive status was evaluated by the Halstead-Reitan Categories Test (a nonverbal test of abstract thinking ability) and by the Wechsler Memory Test Subjects with low blood levels of vitamins C or B 12 scored worse on both tests Subjects with low levels of riboflavin or folic acid scored worse on the categories test These differences remained significant after controlling for age, gender, level of income, and amount of education "Subclinical" malnutrition may play a small role in the depression of cognitive function detectable in some elderly individuals, or depressed cognitive function may result in reduced nutrient intake ( JAMA 1983;249:2917-2921)

TL;DR: In this article, the generalized lagging behavior in solids under high-rate heating is derived by precise correlation with the hyperbolic two-step model, where the ballistic behavior of heat transport in the electron gas is captured by the second-order effect of the phase lag of the heat flux vector.
