BACKGROUND Frequency of eating breakfast, lunch and evening meal as a determinant of fruit and vegetable intake among young people is little studied. We investigated whether irregular meal consumption was associated with fruit and vegetable intake among adolescents. We used separate analyses, and special emphasis was on the potentially modifying effect of sex and age. METHODS Data were from t...

Abstract Background Rapid weight loss (RWL) is commonly practiced in combat sports. Both magnitude and methods used to induce RWL are largely similar among sports, but currently, there no data on methodology by sambo athletes. Therefore, the aim of this study was determine procedures athletes apply lose rapidly. Methods The sample consisted 199 participants, which 132 males 67 females who parti...

Alternative splicing, and specifically alternative exon inclusion, is one of the best studied mechanisms that create alternative isoforms. In its simplest form, alternative exon inclusion can be represented as exon skipping. Novel exon skipping events can be created through mutation events near and far from splice junctions, and thus may contribute to diseases, such as cancer. We systematically...

BACKGROUND Adolescence is an important period since the establishment of dietary pattern can also affect the adulthood. This study aimed to estimate the overall prevalence of skipping breakfast among Iranian students. METHODS The international and national databases, including Medline, Scopus, Science Direct, Embase, Web of sciences, Google Scholar, MagIran, and SID were searched 1945-2016 as...

Eating breakfast is important for the health and development of children and adolescents. This paper reports on the findings of an Australian survey of 699 thirteen-year-olds concerning the extent of skipping breakfast. Results indicated that approximately 12% of the sample skipped breakfast. Gender was the only statistically significant sociodemographic variable, with females skipping at over ...

PURPOSE Recurrent MET exon 14 splicing has been revealed in lung cancers and is a promising therapeutic target. Because we have limited knowledge about the natural history of MET mutant tumors, the current study was aiming to determine the clinical and pathological characteristics in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). RESULTS Twenty-three patients (1.3%) were positive for MET exon 14 skippi...

In Drosophila, the Gal4-UAS system permits a transgene to be expressed in the same pattern as a gene of interest by placing the Gal4 transcription factor under control of the gene's DNA regulatory elements. If these regulatory elements are not known, however, expression of Gal4 in the desired pattern may be difficult or impossible. To solve this problem, we have developed a method for co-expres...

Removing commercials from television programs is a much sought-after feature for a personal video recorder. In this paper, we employ an unsupervised clustering scheme (CM Detect) to detect commercials in television programs. Each program is first divided into Ws-minute chunks, and we extract audio and visual features from each of these chunks. Next, we apply k-means clustering to assign each ch...

Recent studies suggest that meal frequencies influence the risk of obesity in children and adolescents. It has also been shown that multiple genetic loci predispose to obesity already in youth. However, it is unknown whether meal frequencies could modulate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the risk of obesity. We examined the effect of two meal patterns on weekd...
