Praesepe - two merging clusters?
(2000-12-11)A membership catalogue for Praesepe was compiled and split into four mass bins. A contour plot indicates the presence of a subcluster some 3 pc from the centre of the cluster, of approximately 30 M-circle dot. A tidally ... -

Pragmatic Language Development in Language Impaired and Typically Developing Children : Incorrect answers in context
(2014-02-01)This study focussed on young children’s incorrect answers to pragmatically demanding questions. Children with specific language impairment (SLI), including a subgroup with pragmatic language difficulties (PLD) and typically ... -
Pragmatic use of Language by Children who develop Schizophrenia in adult life
(2013-06)At eleven years of age all children in a UK national birth cohort wrote short stories about the life they expected to be leading at age 25. Using a data linkage exercise, we identified those who later developed schizophrenia ... -
PRAiSE: resolved spectral evolution in simulated radio sources
(2022-04-30)We present a method for applying spatially resolved adiabatic and radiative loss processes to synthetic radio emission from hydrodynamic simulations of radio sources from active galactic nuclei (AGN). Lagrangian tracer ... -
Pramipexole protects against apoptotic cell death by non-dopaminergic mechanisms
(2004-12)We have investigated the ability of pramipexole, a dopamine agonist used in the symptomatic treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD), to protect against cell death induced by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) and rotenone ... -
Pramipexole protects against MPTP toxicity in non-human primates
(2006-03)The neurotoxin MPTP induces nigral dopaminergic cell death in primates and produces a partial model of Parkinson's disease (PD). Pramipexole is a D-2/D-3 dopamine receptor agonist used in the symptomatic treatment of PD, ... -
