n. This article opens the door for future studies on the action of choline in the presence of hyperbilirubinemia, especially in preterm neonates.Integrins are heterodimeric transmembrane cell adhesion molecules made up of alpha (α) and beta (β) subunits arranged in numerous dimeric pairings. These complexes have varying affinities to e…[Read more]

This study aimed to obtain a consensus on oral health policy, access to dental care, oral hygiene measures and training levels.

Poor oral health is widespread in care-dependent older people, but no consensus for a minimum standard of oral health care exists yet.

The e-Delphi approach was applied to a selected panel of…[Read more]

NRC Report PIRS-0626 (https//doi.org/10.4224/40000364) describes how measured electron energy deposition spectra can be used to determine the electronic stopping power. The stopping power is obtained by comparing measured spectra with spectra calculated using Monte Carlo techniques. The stopping powers reported in PIRS-0626 were obtained using the…[Read more]

nd is available to anyone interested in trialling it.The increasing use of gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures has led to the recognition by histopathologists of non-conventional (or special-type) dysplasias of the gastrointestinal tract. These lesions can be recognised in association with prevalent underlying gastrointestinal conditions, such…[Read more]

A subset of long-duration spaceflight astronauts have experienced ophthalmic abnormalities, collectively termed spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS). Little is understood about the pathophysiology of SANS; however, microgravity-induced alterations in intracranial pressure (ICP) due to headward fluid shifts is the primary…[Read more]

Only quite recently, we have shown that yeast strains Clavispora lusitaniae 146 and Pichia fermentans 27 can act as efficient biocontrol agents for combating postharvest fungal diseases in lemons. During postharvest and storage conditions, microorganisms are subject to different stress factors that could affect both their survival and their…[Read more]
