The children are also from under-resourced communities, broadening the populations that generally contribute such data.ResultsA cross-sectional and a longitudinal regression analysis reveals the contribution of each variable to the children’s success on the false belief measures. …”

Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Sirtuins: Important Targets in Hearing Loss by Lingjun Zhang, Zhengde Du, Shusheng Gong

“…Mitochondrial dysfunction has been suggested to be a risk factor for sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) induced by aging, noise, ototoxic drugs, and gene. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are mainly derived from mitochondria, and oxidative stress induced by ROS contributes to cochlear damage as well as mitochondrial DNA mutations, which may enhance the sensitivity and severity of hearing loss and disrupt ion homeostasis (e.g., Ca2+ homeostasis). …”
