Abstract:
Twenty years ago, a seminal study on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and subsequent increased health risks catapulted ACEs into the zeitgeist of research and application. Though a validated construct, the questionnaire, particularly the child sexual abuse (CSA) item is not without limitation and yet is used by the Centers for Disease Control and state agencies to quantify need and allocate resources to services accordingly. Currently, CSA is counted only when the perpetrator is 5-years or older than the victim. This requirement makes neglect of sibling and peer assault very likely. Accord

In 1998, a seminal study on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and subsequent health risks catapulted ACEs and the study questionnaire into the zeitgeist. However, its childhood sexual abuse (CSA) item is problematic as it requires the perpetrator have been 5-years or older than the victim. To assess whether some survivors’ CSA is not identified by the current item, whether their exclusion prevents access to services requiring a four-threshold ACE score, and how their health outcomes compared to other CSA groups and controls, an international sample of 974 women completed an online survey as

Abstract:
Aims Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which metabolizes many peptides and plays a key role in blood pressure regulation and vascular remodeling, is expressed as a type-1 membrane glycoprotein on the surface of different cells, including endothelial cells of the heart. We hypothesized that the local conformation and, therefore, the properties of heart ACE could differ from lung ACE due to different microenvironment in these organs. Methods and results We performed ACE phenotyping (ACE levels, conformation and kinetic characteristics) in the human heart and compared it with that in the lung.

Abstract:
Distributed-memory machines offer a very high level of performance, flexibility and scalability. But the memory organization of this kind of machine determines that processes on different processors must communicate explicitly by sending and receiving messages. As a result, the programmer faces the enormously difficult task of detailed planning of algorithm-irrelevant, low-level communication issues. This level of programming resembles writing assembly programs for a sequential machine. ACE is a message-passing language with abstract communication statements. It was defined by Dr. Jingke Li at
