BACKGROUND A silent intragenic biallelic polymorphism (1359 G/A) (rs1049353) of the CB1 gene resulting in the substitution of the G to A at nucleotide position 1359 in codon 435 (Thr), was reported as a common polymorphism in Caucasian populations. OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to investigate the influence of the missense polymorphism (G1359A) of CB1 receptor gene on obesity anthropometr...

BACKGROUND A intragenic biallelic polymorphism (1359 G/A) of the CB1 gene resulting in the substitution of the G to A at nucleotide position 1359 in codon 435 (Thr), was reported as a common polymorphism in Caucasian populations. Intervention studies with this polymorphism have not been realized. OBJECTIVE We decided to investigate the role of the polymorphism (G1359A) of CB1 receptor gene on...

The popularity of location-based services (LBSs) leads to severe concerns on users’ privacy. With the fast growth of Internet applications such as online social networks, more user information becomes available to the attackers, which allows them to construct new contextual information. This gives rise to new challenges for user privacy protection and often requires improvements on the existing...

Abstract For the casted CrCoNi medium entropy alloy melted by magnetic levitation, deformation was carried out in 4 passes under condition of liquid nitrogen temperature (−196 °C), total reduction 50%, The microstructure and properties were analyzed after low rolled. experimental data showed that phase structure not changed low-temperature rolling. grains, crushed refined, elongated along rolli...

At the heart of monastic spirituality is development hesychasm as a means toward achieving an experience divine (theosis), and this proved to be immense importance in history Orthodox Church. This hesychasm, focused on necessity ceaseless inner prayer, greatly influenced later Church history, pastoral counseling.
