Novel epidermal–cortical pattern and root apical silencing of VcCPC promoter activity in Arabidopsis might suggest a joint contribution to hairless roots in blueberry by Youyin Zhu, Ke Li, Yu Zong, Yongqiang Li, Weidong Guo

“…Substituting the native VcCPC promoter with the AtCPC promoter restored root hair development in the Arabidopsis cpc mutant, indicating that regulatory elements present in the AtCPC promoter, but absent in the VcCPC promoter, might mediate the root phenotypic divergence.…”

Functional cleft palate surgery by Ulrich Joos, Anthony F. Markus, Robert Schuon

“…In many cases, despite secondary surgery and revision, it might not be possible to correct and achieve the best possible outcomes, especially if critical stages of development and growth have been missed or there has been significant tissue loss due to resection of existing tissue while primary surgery.This paper describes functional surgical methods and reviews long term, over many decades, results of children with cleft palate.…”

Differential Item Functioning Related to Age in the Reading Subtest of the Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults by Raymond L. Ownby, Drenna Waldrop-Valverde

“…Based on observations when administering the test, we developed the hypothesis that some items on the reading comprehension subtest of the Test of Functional Health Literacy (TOFHLA) might be differentially more difficult for older adults and the elderly due to its use of the cloze response format, in which the participant is required to determine what word, when placed in a blank space in a sentence, will ensure that the sentence is intelligible. …”
