Daily physical activity and physical function in adult maintenance hemodialysis patients
BACKGROUND Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients reportedly display reduced daily physical activity (DPA) and physical performance. Low daily physical activity and decreased physical performance are each associated with worse outcomes in chronic kidney disease patients. Although daily physical activity and physical performance might be expected to be related, few studies have examined such re...
متن کاملHyperammonemia results in reduced muscle function independent of muscle mass.
The mechanism of the nearly universal decreased muscle strength in cirrhosis is not known. We evaluated whether hyperammonemia in cirrhosis causes contractile dysfunction independent of reduced skeletal muscle mass. Maximum grip strength and muscle fatigue response were determined in cirrhotic patients and controls. Blood and muscle ammonia concentrations and grip strength normalized to lean bo...
متن کاملSerum CEA level is associated comorbidity of hemodialysis patients
Hemodialysis affects biomarkers concentration in blood. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of hemodialysis on commonly used tumor markers. A total of 28 unselected patients (22 men and 6 women) with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), treated with maintenance hemodialysis, were enrolled in this study. GOT and tumor markers such as CA-153, CA-125, and CEA are measured. The mean age was...
متن کاملSarcopenia and physical independence in older adults: the independent and synergic role of muscle mass and muscle function
BACKGROUND The loss of skeletal muscle mass (MM) or muscle function (MF) alone increases the risk for losing physical independence in older adults. We aimed to examine the independent and synergic associations of low MM and low MF, both criteria of sarcopenia, with the risk for losing projected physical independence in later life (+90 years old). METHODS Cross-sectional analyses were conducte...
متن کاملinterpersonal function of language in subtitling
translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...
