Factors expected to change concurrently with forest loss-such as economic activity and air pollution-shape human health in different ways, making it difficult to ex ante predict the net impact of deforestation. This paper investigates the infant mortality effects of prenatal exposure to high biomass forest loss in Indonesia, a country with rich…[Read more]

etal homeostasis and favors adipogenesis. Global deletion of Zfp467 increases PTHR1, cAMP and bone turnover, hence its repression is a component of PTH signaling and its regulation. These data support a critical role for Zfp467 in early lineage allocation and provide a novel potential mechanism by which PTH acts in an anabolic manner on the bone…[Read more]

002 and p=.013), but not for lumbar-spine BMD (p=.068), total-hip BMD (p=.069), handgrip strength (p=.066) or gait velocity (p=.067). Apart from total-hip BMD (p=.055), handgrip strength (p=.069) and gait velocity (p=.881) values of the HIT-RT group decreased significantly during detraining. However, after 24months, overall effects (p<.001) were…[Read more]

The expressions of StAR, TSPO, CYP11A1, HSD3B7, HSD17B4 and SF-1 in the Leydig cells were significantly decreased in the LOH model controls compared with those in the normal controls (P< 0.05), but remarkably increased in the low-, medium- and high-dose XYP groups in comparison with those in the LOH model control group (P< 0.05).

We searched the electronic data base (CINAHL, SCOPUS, PSycInfo, and PubMed studies) for studies regarding the application of DT in the elderly. Additionally, given the caregiver’s role as a custodian of diachronic unity of the cared-for and the need to help caregivers to cope with their own existential distress and anticipatory grief, we also…[Read more]

The exponential increase in world population is leading to a need for new sustainable protein sources that could supply the high demands without resulting in an enormous environmental impact. Bioactive peptides from food proteins are currently seen as capable of modulating physiological processes, such as diabetes. The potential of insects as a…[Read more]

Reviewers’ creditworthiness is an important edge clue in the elaboration likelihood model (ELM). This paper takes the online travel booked by consumers as an example and uses the questionnaire data of 417 outbound passengers from Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport. The paper examines the influence of reviewers’ creditworthiness on consumer…[Read more]
