Protein Networks

Protein Networks

An organism can have thousands of different proteins, and these proteins must cooperate to ensure the health of an organism. Proteins bind to other proteins and form complexes to carry out their functions. Many proteins interact with multiple other proteins creating a complex network of protein interactions.
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...

Network Covalent Solids

Network Covalent Solids

Network covalent solids contain a three-dimensional network of covalently bonded atoms as found in the crystal structures of nonmetals like diamond, graphite, silicon, and some covalent compounds, such as silicon dioxide (sand) and silicon carbide (carborundum, the abrasive on sandpaper). Many minerals have networks of covalent bonds.
To break or to melt a covalent network solid, covalent bonds must be broken. Because covalent bonds are relatively strong, covalent network solids are typically...

Physical and Chemical Properties of Matter

Physical and Chemical Properties of Matter

The characteristics that enable us to distinguish one substance from another are called properties.

Properties of Transition Metals

Properties of Transition Metals

Transition metals are defined as those elements that have partially filled d orbitals. As shown in Figure 1, the d-block elements in groups 3–12 are transition elements. The f-block elements, also called inner transition metals (the lanthanides and actinides), also meet this criterion because the d orbital is partially occupied before the f orbitals.

General Properties of Solutions

General Properties of Solutions

Many common substances around us exist as a solution, such as ocean water, air, and gasoline. All solutions are mixtures of substances that are composed of varying amounts of two or more types of atoms or molecules. A mixture with a non-uniform composition is a heterogeneous mixture, whereas a mixture with a uniform composition is a homogeneous mixture. The components that make the homogeneous mixture are evenly spread out and thoroughly mixed.

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Lexical networks in discourse of people with aphasia (PWA) are smaller and less efficient than those of healthy controls. Despite constraints, PWA language networks retain some typical characteristics.

Area of Science:

Neuroscience
Linguistics
Computational Linguistics

Background:

Discourse production assesses language competence in persons with aphasia (PWA).
Previous PWA discourse research focused on discrete linguistic measures.
A holistic view of linguistic interconnections in PWA discourse is needed.

Purpose of the Study:

To compare lexical networks of discourse produced by PWA with those of healthy controls.
To investigate macro-, meso-, and micro-level network characteristics.
To understand the efficiency and constraints of PWA language networks.

Main Methods:

Lexical network analysis of discourse produced by PWA and healthy controls.
Comparison of network size, diameter, density, and small-worldness.
Analysis of network modularity and node degree distribution.

Main Results:

PWA networks exhibited smaller size and diameter but higher density compared to controls.
PWA networks had lower small-worldness and modularity than controls.
Node degrees in both groups followed a power-law distribution (scale-free networks).

Conclusions:

Lexical networks in PWA discourse are constrained and less efficient.
PWA language networks retain some basic characteristics of typical networks.
Network analysis offers insights into the linguistic capabilities of PWA.
