These findings suggest that anti-N-Hcy-protein autoantibodies can impair functional (attention/processing speed and global cognition), but not structural (brain atrophy), aspects of cognition. Anti-N-Hcy-protein autoantibodies are a new factor associated…[Read more]

However, there is a lack of evidence regarding the accuracy of these tools to predict soccer-specific injuries.

The purpose of this systematic literature review was to determine the psychometric properties or accuracy of screening tools for common soccer…[Read more]

Our method extended 2D measurements and confirmed previous findings. Our method and reported normative data of (potential) biomarkers can be used to study neuromuscular disorders.

Our method…[Read more]

These non-self proteins comprise about 400 amino acids (AAs). Clinical responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors, seen in about half of patients, may relate to T-Ag-specific T cells. Strategies to increase CD8+ T-cell number,…[Read more]
