Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency: Effects on Prostaglandin Synthesis and Immune Response
Essential fatty acid (EFA) deficiency is known to alter prostaglandin (PG) synthesis and immune response in several species. These experiments were designed to investigate PG production and the immune response of EFA-deficient Lewis rats and A/J mice.

Principles and practice in reporting exploratory or confirmatory factor analyses in palliative care research: A systematic review
… exploratory or confirmatory factor analysis (EFA and CFA). Studies were scored using data extraction forms and one fifth was independently assessed by a second<br/>reviewer. Percentages were examined for each reporting variable. Differences between reporting practices of EFA and CFA and …

MODULATION OF VOLTAGE-GATED CALCIUM CHANNEL BY A SYNAPTIC PROTEIN AND GANGLIOSIDE
… exclusively spliced to produce either CaV2.1[EFa] or CaV2.1[EFb], and CaV2.2[EFa] or CaV2.2[EFb] respectively. Snapin selectively increased the current density of CaV2.1[EFb] and CaV2.2[EFa], but not CaV2.1[EFa] and CaV2.2[EFb]. Moreover, snapin preferentially modulated CaV1.3 channel by …

Factor structure of the assessment of qualitative and structural dimensions of object representations (AOR) scale
… analyzed using an exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and the second underwent a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the EFA model. Results of both the EFA and CFA suggested that a three-factor solution was best, which were labeled Agency, Communion, and Punitive based on previous research. The …

Peroxisome Proliferator -Activated Receptor (Ppar)alpha Regulation of Highly Unsaturated Fatty Acid Synthesis
… study was to identify a PPARalpha ligand under EFA deficiency. Lysophospholipids (lysoPL) are the most likely candidates for the ligands because decreased HUFA under EFA deficiency may shift the equilibrium of phospholipid deacylation/reacylation cycle toward accumulation of lysoPL. To test the …
