TL;DR: Children's responses to anger as a function of the mode of expression of anger (nonverbal, verbal, verbal-physical), and whether or not anger between others was resolved were examined.
Abstract: Anger is not a homogeneous stimulus, but can vary on a variety of dimensions and domains. This study examined children's responses to anger as a function of: (a) the mode of expression of anger (nonverbal, verbal, verbal-physical), and (b) whether or not anger between others was resolved. Children were presented with videotaped segments of angry and friendly interactions and asked questions concerning their responses. All angry interactions, including non-verbal anger, were perceived as negative events and elicited negative emotions. Unresolved anger was perceived as a far more negative event than resolved anger and induced greater feelings of anger and distress in children. Verbal-physical anger was perceived as the most negative form of expression of anger. Boys reported more angry feelings in response to anger than girls. Distress responding was greater in children from homes in which there was interparent physical aggression and in children with behavior problems. Finally, the utility of this methodology is supported by relatively high test-retest reliability and limited evidence of context effects.

TL;DR: The data suggest that exercise training attenuates the extent of apoptosis in cardiac and skeletal muscles.
Abstract: The effect of exercise on apoptosis in postmitotic tissues is not known. In this study, we investigated the effect of regular moderate physical activity (i.e., exercise training) on the extent of apoptosis in rat skeletal and cardiac muscles. Adult Sprague Dawley rats were trained (TR) 5 days weekly for 8 wk on treadmill. Sedentary rats served as controls (CON). An ELISA was used to detect mono- and oligonucleosome fragmentation as an indicator of apoptosis. Bcl-2, Bax, Apaf-1, AIF, cleaved PARP, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved/active caspase-9, heat shock protein (HSP)70, Cu/Zn-SOD, and Mn-SOD protein levels were determined by Western analyses. Bcl-2 and Bax transcript contents were estimated by RT-PCR. A spectrofluorometric assay was used to determine caspase-3 activity. DNA fragmentation in ventricles of the TR group decreased by 15% whereas that in soleus of the TR group tended to decrease (P=0.058) when compared with CON group. Protein contents of Bcl-2, HSP70, and Mn-SOD increased in both soleus and ventricle muscles of TR animals when compared with CON animals. Apaf-1 protein content in the soleus of TR animals was lower than that of CON animals. Bcl-2 mRNA levels increased in both ventricle and soleus muscles of TR animals, and Bax mRNA levels decreased in the soleus of TR animals when compared with CON animals. Furthermore, HSP70 protein content was negatively correlated to Bax mRNA content and was positively correlated to Bcl-2 protein and mRNA contents. Mn-SOD protein content was negatively correlated to the apoptotic index, and caspase-3 activity and was positively correlated to Bcl-2 transcript content and HSP70 protein content. These data suggest that exercise training attenuates the extent of apoptosis in cardiac and skeletal muscles.

TL;DR: It is expected that patients treated with optimal BCG treatment regimens will have a long-term reduction in tumor recurrence, tumor progression, and cancer mortality.
Abstract: In the United States, bladder cancer is the fourth most common human malignancy. In the past decade, the incidence of bladder cancer has increased by 36%. However, mortality has declined by 8%. Intravesical chemotherapy was considered to be partially responsible for this improvement in survival, but a recent review of clinical studies shows no reduction in disease progression with intravesical chemotherapy. Fortunately, the results of immunotherapy with bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) are quite different, and it is expected that patients treated with optimal BCG treatment regimens will have a long-term reduction in tumor recurrence, tumor progression, and cancer mortality.
