At test-retest, no significant difference was found for all items. The median total score interquartile range (IQR) of the M-MALMAS was 7.0 (6.0-8.0) and this was significantly correlated to the median total score of the Malay MMAS-8 [median (IQR) = 7.0 (5.8-8.0), p less then 0.001]. HbA1c levels were significantly lower among participants who…[Read more]

OBJECTIVE To compare the rates of hormonal evaluation in patients who had CT reports describing adrenal incidentalomas with and without a specific recommendation for hormonal evaluation. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective review of adult outpatients without a history of cancer who had a CT report describing an incidental adrenal…[Read more]

The African swine fever virus (ASFV) has severely influenced the swine industry of the world. Unfortunately, there is currently no effective antiviral drug or vaccine against the virus. Identification of new anti-ASFV drugs is urgently needed. Here, an up-to-date set of protein-protein interactions between ASFV and swine were curated by…[Read more]

Four trainers and three trainees have piloted the questionnaire, and input was sought from the national leads of the biennial UK Clinical Oncology training survey. Significance testing will be performed on predefined questions and thematic analysis on white space questions. Ethics and dissemination Medical education research is evolving in…[Read more]

Therapeutic interventions based on the modulation of the microbiome have been explored to some extent, but their application to everyday medical practice is still in the future.There is a growing body of research documenting racial/ethnic differences in the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and negative health outcomes in…[Read more]

Objective This study aims to design and apply modules and flipchart about nutritional anemia and Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) for bride in the Bugienesse Culture “mappacci”. Method this study applied a qualitative method with a case study design. The informants were selected by purposive sampling. Steps of research (1) Fostering Atmosphere for…[Read more]

We capitalize on this fact by extracting color gradient features from input images at multiple sensitivity levels to detect possible manipulations. We resort to a deep neural classifier to predict the category of unseen images, whereas a discrimination model analyzes the extracted color gradient features with time series techniques to determine…[Read more]

This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.Ultrasound (US) is classified as a nonthermal treatment and it is used in food processing at a frequency range between 20 kHz and 1 MHz. Cavitation bubbles occur when the US strength is high enough to generate rarefaction that exceeds the intermolecular attraction forces in the medium.…[Read more]

Objectives Tumour cell proliferation requires high metabolism to meet the bioenergetics and biosynthetic needs. Dauer in Caenorhabditis elegans is characterized by lower metabolism, and we established an approach with C elegans to find potential tumour therapy targets. Materials and methods RNAi screening was used to find dauer-related genes, and…[Read more]

We build a compressive imaging system that can reconstruct high-speed videos of two fields-of-view by capturing a single frame. A single digital micromirror device is employed to implement high-speed modulation simultaneously on both scenes in a manner that does not compromise spatial resolution. We utilize deep denoising priors in the…[Read more]

However, LY294002 attenuated the protective effect of STRAP on cardiomyocytes. CONCLUSIONS STRAP reduces ERS and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes by activating the PI3K/PDK1/Akt signaling pathway, thereby reducing myocardial MIRI.OBJECTIVE To investigate the expression of circ_0072309 in patients with ischemic stroke (IS) and in LIFR humanized mice…[Read more]
