Software algorithm that automatically estimates and removes physiological noise in BOLD fMRI data, including the effects of heartbeat and respiration. This algorithm (1) masks out high-variance CSF and vascular tracts that may otherwise confound analyses, and (2) regresses out noise timeseries in grey matter tissue, using an adaptive multivariate component decomposition (Canonical Autocorrelations Analysis). PHYCAA+ is an efficient, automated procedure that does NOT require external measures of physiology, nor does it require the user to manually identify noise components. Based on the peer-reviewed article: Churchill & Strother (2013). PHYCAA+: An Optimized, Adaptive Procedure for Measuring and Controlling Physiological Noise in BOLD fMRI. NeuroImage 82: 306-325

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 14,2026. A high-resolution ontology has been developed by members of the GUDMAP consortium to describe the subcompartments of the developing murine genitourinary tract. This ontology incorporates what can be defined histologically and begins to encompass other structures and cell types already identified at the molecular level. The GUDMAP ontology encompasses Theiler stage (TS) 17-27 of development as well as the sexually mature adult. It has been written as a partonomic, text-based, hierarchical ontology that, for the embryological stages, has been developed as a high-resolution expansion of the existing Edinburgh Mouse Atlas Project (EMAP) ontology. It also includes group terms for well-characterized structural and/or functional units comprising several sub-structures, such as the nephron and juxtaglomerular complex. Each term has been assigned a unique identification number. Synonyms have been used to improve the success of query searching and maintain wherever possible existing EMAP terms relating to this organ system.

http://druginfo.nlm.nih.gov/drugportal/drugportal.jsp

The NLM Drug Information Portal gives users a gateway to selected drug information from the U.S. National Library of Medicine and other key U.S. Government agencies. At the top of the page are links to individual resources with potential drug information, including summaries tailored to various audiences. Resources include the NLM search systems useful in searching for a drug, NLM research resources, resources organized by audience and class, and other NIH and government resources such as FDA and CDC. The search box in the middle of the page lets you search many of these resources simultaneously. More than 34,000 drugs can be searched using this facility. The portal covers drugs from the time they are entered into clinical trials (Clinicaltrials.gov) through their entry in the U.S. market place (Drugs@FDA). Many drugs in other countries are covered, but not as thoroughly as U.S. drugs. The PubMed link provides medical literature describing research, and TOXLINE provides toxicology literature. Resources such as MedlinePlus provide easy to read summaries of the uses and efficacy of a drug. You may search by a drug's trade name or generic name. For example, the trade name Advil and the generic name ibuprofen will retrieve the same drug record. As you type in a name, suggestions are given beneath the search box. A spell checker gives suggestions if the name is not found. You can find embedded portions of names by using an asterisk at the beginning and/or end of a search term. You can also search by the general Category of usage of a drug by checking that radio button. Suggestions are given as you type here too. Once a drug is found, a summary of the drug's type and usage is given, as well as links leading to further information at one of the portal's resources. Outside links open in a new window. Within a given drug record, you may click on the drug category and retrieve drugs with the same or similar uses. * View drug category descriptions. * View top By Name searches (previous seven days). * View top By Category searches (previous seven days). * View top dispensed prescriptions in the US Market, 2010. * View common drug name list. * View category name list. * View list of resources searched.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. Database and customized tools to study the PFAM protein domain content of the transcriptome for all expressed genes of Homo sapiens, Mus musculus, Drosophila melanogaster, and Caenorhabditis elegans tethered to both a genomics array repository database and a range of external information resources. GeneSpeed has merged information from several existing data sets including the Gene Ontology Consortium, InterPro, Pfam, Unigene, as well as micro-array datasets. GeneSpeed is a database of PFAM domain homology contained within Unigene. Because Unigene is a non-redundant dbEST database, this provides a wide encompassing overview of the domain content of the expressed transcriptome. We have structured the GeneSpeed Database to include a rich toolset allowing the investigator to study all domain homology, no matter how remote. As a result, homology cutoff score decisions are determined by the scientist, not by a computer algorithm. This quality is one of the novel defining features of the GeneSpeed database giving the user complete control of database content. In addition to a domain content toolset, GeneSpeed provides an assortment of links to external databases, a unique and manually curated Transcription Factor Classification list, as well as links to our newly evolving GeneSpeed BetaCell Database. GeneSpeed BetaCell is a micro-array depository combined with custom array analysis tools created with an emphasis around the meta analysis of developmental time series micro-array datasets and their significance in pancreatic beta cells.
