Non-PRO (1): Richard Benham

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Donor leucocytes stored for 4 d or less at 4 degrees C were able to partially re-express CD antigens and reconstitute their signalling pathway when placed at 37 degrees C. whereas those stored for more than 4 d were not. These irreversible changes result from a permanent downregulation of donor cell protein synthesis. These findings provide a mechanism to explain the paucity of TA-GVHD following transfusion of blood that is more than 4 d-old. Further study may show that aged blood provides additional assurances for the prevention of TA-GVHD; however, use of aged blood should not replace current protocols using irradiation.
