Background. Middle-aged women are at risk of musculoskeletal disorders because of the decreased muscle mass and bone density caused by a decreased endocrine function. Objectives. This study investigated the effectiveness of a stabilization exercise using respiratory resistance on female patients in their 40s with low back pain. Methods. Forty-four female patients in their 40s with low back pa...

Objective: RIP140 is one of the proteins that play a role in regulating and metabolizing lipid droplets. The aim of this study was to compare the three endurance training intensities (low, moderate and high) on the expression of RIP140 protein in visceral adipose tissue and insulin resistance in male diabetic wistar rats. Materials and Methods: Forty male wistar rats were assigned to five grou...

conclusions this study indicates that low-load rt results in greater accumulations in vl compared to high-load rt over the course of 8 weeks of training. results after adjusting for the pre-test scores, there was a significant difference between the two intervention groups on post-intervention total vl with a very large effect size (f (1, 15) = 16.598, p = .001, ηp2 = .525). there was a signifi...

background: acinetobacter baumannii is commonly resistant to nearly all antibiotics due to presence of antibiotic resistance genes and biofilm formation. in this study we determined the presence of certain antibiotic-resistance genes associated with biofilm production and the influence of low iron concentration on expression of the biofilm-associated protein gene (bap) in development of biofilm...
