Exposure frequency and affect
… affect is a monotonic function of frequency of exposure. In the first experiment while supporting the frequency-affect relationship a non significant difference between males and females and positive and negative set conditions were obtained. In the second experiment low association value …

Electrothermal controlled-exposure technology
… These contents are hermetically sealed until exposure is triggered by an electronic signal. The exposure mechanism uses electrothermal heating to rupture a metal membrane at one end of the cavity. The device's capability for storing a variety of contents and exposing them on demand makes it …

Double-Exposure Gray-Scale Photolithography
… that need a high vertical resolution. The double-exposure gray-scale photolithography technique was developed to improve the vertical resolution without increasing the number of pixel sizes. This is achieved by using two gray-scale exposures prior to development. The resulting overlay produces an …

An examination of how attention influences exposure effects: target selection, distractor devaluation and mere exposure
There is an old market saying, every exposure is good exposure. However, when consumers are involved in a search activity that requires selective attention, for stimuli that are not targets (distractors), the positive mere exposure effect may be eliminated. The study examined the relationship …

Respiratory exposure and potential dermal exposure to volatile organic compounds in nail salons : a pilot study
… to quantify respiratory and potential dermal exposure of nail technicians to acetone, formaldehyde, ethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, toluene and xylene. Fifteen female nail technicians, working in different salons participated in this study. Products used for nail treatments differed …

Confidence intervals for exposure risk assessment
The problem of estimating exposure to a pollutant involves estimation of chemical intake Q. Typically, Q has the form Q = q11q12&cdots;q 1r1/q211q22 &cdots;q2r2t where all thetaij's are unknown means of certain random variables. In assessing the risk to human health from exposure to the pollutant …

Exposure, telomere length, and cancer risk
… aim of this thesis was to explore the effect of exposures on telomere length in different occupational or environmental settings, and also to investigate the association between telomere length and chromosomal aberrations in blood, a biomarker for cancer risk. Different study populations were …

Prenatal Cocaine Exposure and Cardiac Programming
… The central hypothesis is that cocaine exposure during fetal development may cause <em>in utero</em> programming of apoptotic pathways, which may has lasting and prolong effect on heart development postnatally.</p> <p>In a pregnant rat model, chronic hypoxia increased apoptosis in the …

Cancer cell behaviour following parasite exposure
… which cellular mechanisms are altered following exposure. Using several in vitro and in vivo techniques, this study aimed to determine the effect that certain helminths have on the progression of cervical and colorectal cancer. The results revealed that antigen from the hookworm Nippostrongylus …

Exposure modelling under change of measure
… is often managed via measures of counter-party exposure, such as potential future exposure (PFE) and expected exposure (EE), with these measures playing an important role in setting economic and regulatory capital levels. For the sake of risk measurement and risk management these exposure …

The impact of exposure to civil
… investigation aims at examining the effects of exposure to civil. violence on 304 'black' and 'white' children's evaluations of violence whilst controlling for gender and socio-economic status differences. The study tests the hypothesis that children exposed to civil violence tend to accept the …

Exposure to risk and its impact on human capital : essays on combat exposure, military labor, and conflict duration
… post-service mortality is due to the effect of exposure to high rates of mortality while in-service. The relationship between in-service and post-service mortality has likely always existed, but the higher rates of in-service mortality during the war mean that post-service mortality rates are …

Tobacco Smoke Exposure and Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis
… association between secondhand tobacco smoke exposure and MS in children. The purpose of this study is to explore the association between tobacco smoke exposure (TSE) and MS risk in a cohort of children with demyelinating disease. Methods: Data was obtained from the Canadian National …
