A meta-analysis of BMI z-score change was conducted. Thirty-four articles were included in this review. Frequent strategies used were delivering education and training on healthy habits and well-being (94%), engaging community in the planning and implementation phases (80.6%) and providing reminders and feedback (47.2%). BMI z-score mean…[Lees meer]

With MCNP5 simulation, the mass attenuation coefficient (MAC) values of all the samples were calculated and compared with a theoretical approach using the XCOM program. As the amount of Bi

increases, the linear attenuation coefficient (LAC) increases with it at all energies. The LAC values varied between 0.2805 and 0.5269cm

Though its molecular function is not known, previous studies suggested a role of the sigma 2 receptor as a quality control factor in the ER, compatible with our observations about Ema19. More globally, our data provide an additional demonstration of the important role of the ER in mitochondrial protein targeting.

ed in patients undergoing BAV repair for AR.The overexpression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in multidrug resistance (MDR) cancer cells increases the efflux of anticancer drugs thereby causing the failure of clinical chemotherapy. To address this obstacle, in this study, we rationally designed a near-infrared (NIR) light-responsive nitric oxide (NO)…[Lees meer]

This study aimed to clarify whether occlusal force and masticatory performance reduced in elderly adults and whether these parameters were affected by age.

Seventy-eight elderly adults (elderly group) and 76 young adults (control group) with natural dentition were asked to maximally clench for 3 s, and occlusal force was calculated. The…[Lees meer]

No evidence of publication bias was observed. Although evidence of heterogeneity should be carefully evaluated, our findings suggest that maternal infection exposure may be associated with a greater risk of psychosis in the offspring.With the treatment failure by vancomycin and poor clinical outcomes, the emergence and spread of vancomycin…[Lees meer]

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a major complication in pregnancy. GDM is associated with a higher risk for adverse maternal-fetal outcomes. Associations between movement behavior, including physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB), and maternal-fetal outcomes are still unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate…[Lees meer]
