The underlying hypothesis is that conditions in space may change the perceived flavor of the food, and this flavor change may, in turn, lead to underconsumption by astronauts. selleck chemical The key areas investigated in this review for their potential impact on food intake are the effects of food shelf life, physiological changes, noise, air…Read more

001). Baseline suPAR was significantly associated with all-cause mortality (HR 1.40 (95% CI 1.16-1.68), p less then 0.001) over 10 years. suPAR remained associated with mortality (HR 1.29 (1.03-1.61), p = 0.026) after multivariable adjustment for age, sex, cardiovascular risk factors, and eGFR. Future research may define a standard role for suPAR…Read more

To assess the agreement in diagnosis and management plans reached between clinicians reviewing eyelid lesions remotely and in face-to-face clinics.

In this single-centre observational case series, data were prospectively collected on 50 consecutive adults referred with eyelid lesions suitable to be seen by a nurse. A proforma was completed…Read more

Extreme floods caused by dike or dam breaks have led to substantial damage to various types of vegetation, including forests, orchards, grass, and crops. Many factors affect the impacts of extreme floods on plants, e.g., flood parameters, plant characteristics and natural factors. However, these factors have never been systematically analyzed or…Read more

5% (95% confidence interval, CI 42.8-69.3%). The highest prevalence of neuropathy in type2 diabetic patients was found in Mashhad with 87.2% (95% CI 77.9-92.3%) in 2012 and the lowest prevalence of neuropathy in type2 diabetic patients was found in Ahvaz with 22.7% (95% CI 18.5-27.6%) in 2014. With the increase in years of research, the prevalence…Read more

Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the emerged coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is spreading globally. The origin of SARS-Cov-2 and its evolutionary relationship is still ambiguous. Several reports attempted to figure out this critical issue by genome-based phylogenetic analysis, yet limited progress was obtained, principally owing to the…Read more

Like in an ecosystem, cancer and other cells residing in the tumor microenvironment engage in various modes of interactions to buffer the negative effects of environmental changes. One such change is the consumption of common nutrients (such as glutamine/Gln) and the consequent accumulation of toxic metabolic byproducts (such as ammonium/NH4).…Read more

The consequences of an infertility diagnosis extend beyond the pursuit of family building, because women with infertility also face increased risks for severe maternal morbidity, cancer, and chronic disease.

This study aimed to examine the association between female infertility and all-cause mortality.

This retrospective analysis…Read more

Finally, these results suggest that hematite nanocrystals’ superparamagnetic properties may be explored in multifunctional glass-ceramics applied in bone cancer treatment by hyperthermia allied to bone regeneration.Developing multifunctional hydrogels with good mechanical properties, tissue-adhesiveness, self-healing properties and antioxidant,…Read more

Opioid abuse has been an increasing problem since the 1990s. With over 47,000 opioid related deaths recorded in 2017 alone, concerns have been raised regarding the dangers of introducing opioids perioperatively to patients undergoing major surgeries.

The present study proposes to examine the frequency, amount, and trends in post-operative…Read more

Even though individual life history is the focus of much ecological research, its importance for the dynamics and structure of ecological communities is unclear, or is it a topic of much ongoing research. In this paper I highlight the key life history traits that may lead to effects of life history or ontogeny on ecological communities. I show…Read more
