Water quality degradation is one of the major problems with artificial lakes in estuaries. Long-term spatiotemporal patterns of water quality in a South Korean estuarine reservoir were analyzed using seasonal datasets from 2002 to 2020, and some functional changes in relations of trophic state variables due to the construction of serial weirs in…Read more

Efforts to increase moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) in school-age children are associated with improved health, cognitive, and academic outcomes. However, questions remain about whether similar benefits are observed in early childhood. We hypothesized that motor competence, not MVPA, would be related to improved cognitive and…Read more

Dyslipidemia is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), a major cause of death worldwide. Angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3), recognized as a new therapeutic target for dyslipidemia, regulates the metabolism of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglycerides. Here, we design 3 epitopes (E1-E3) for use in development of a…Read more

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a nonobligate precursor of invasive cancer, and its detection, diagnosis, and management are controversial. DCIS incidence grew with the expansion of screening mammography programs in the 1980s and 1990s, and DCIS is viewed as a major driver of overdiagnosis and overtreatment. For pathologists, the diagnosis and…Read more

me. Since preclinical studies in mice show that SGLT-2 inhibitors or downregulation of SGLT-2 ameliorated pathological changes in the peritoneum, SGLT-2 inhibitors may be potentially promising agents for therapy in PD patients that could reduce glucose absorption and delay functional deterioration of the peritoneal membrane in the long…Read more

Despite recent progress, much remains to be learned about the organization of magnetic maps, how they develop, and how animals use them in navigation.

Child abuse is often unrecognized by healthcare practitioners. This study sought to characterize pediatric abuse injury patterns and associated mortality rates in a nationwide cohort.…Read more
