Abstract Background/Aim:The increase in (MHR) values calculated by the ratio of monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is a parameter that has recently been evaluated as measure inflammation and oxidative stress.There are data associated with cardiovascular diseases carotid artery pathologies.The aim this study seek an answer question "Can MHR be guiding differentiation these ...

International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.Objective: There is a growing interest in how people living with dementia may achieve good outcomes and be resilient despite their health challenges. Understanding what might important for resilience this population largely untested theory. Methods: analysis draws subsample cognitive impairment ...

BACKGROUND Heart failure is one of the leading reasons for hospitalization in developed countries. Our goal was to describe the hemodynamic vital signs (heart rate and systolic blood pressure) of patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with heart failure and to describe the frequency of adverse events for patients presenting with various heart rate and systolic blood pressure value...

An inexorable decline in maximum heart rate (mHR) progressively limits human aerobic capacity with advancing age. This decrease in mHR results from an age-dependent reduction in "intrinsic heart rate" (iHR), which is measured during autonomic blockade. The reduced iHR indicates, by definition, that pacemaker function of the sinoatrial node is compromised during aging. However, little is known a...

PURPOSE Accommodation can mask hyperopia and reduce the accuracy of non-cycloplegic refraction. It is, therefore, important to minimize accommodation to obtain a measure of hyperopia as accurate as possible. To characterize the parameters required to measure the maximally hyperopic error using photorefraction, we used different target types and distances to determine which target was most likel...

The core of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 is derived from two precursor polyproteins, Pr55gag and Pr160gag-pol. The Gag precursor can assemble into immature virus-like particles when expressed by itself, while the Gag-Pol precursor lacks particle-forming ability. We have shown previously that the Gag precursor is able to "rescue" the Gag-Pol precursor into virus-like particles when the tw...

This study examined the relationships among eating attitudes, exercise identity, and body alienation in ultramarathoners. Eighty-seven competitive ultramarathoners (73 males, 14 females) completed the Eating Attitudes Test-26, Exercise Identity Scale, and Body Alienation Scale as part of their pre-race registration. Correlation coefficients revealed that eating attitudes were positively related...

background co-infection with human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) and hepatitis b virus (hbv) is common due to shared routes of transmission, as reported approximately 10% of 33 million hiv-infected patients worldwide are chronically infected with hbv. mutations of hbsag especially within the “a” determinant could alter the antigenicity of the protein, causing failure of hbsag neutralization and ...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of eight weeks of aerobic training along with milk supplement on glut4, glucose and insulin in overweight immature boys. for this purpose, 28 immature overweight boys (8 to 10 years) were selected according to the questionnaire of nutrition, exercise abilities, body mass index, health and welfare from volunteers. then, subjects were divided in...

The aim of this study was to analyze the acute responses of bradykinin, insulin, and glycemia to exercise performed above and below lactate threshold (LT) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Eleven participants with a diagnosis of T2D randomly underwent three experimental sessions 72 h apart: 1) 20 min of exercise performed at 120% of LT (120%LT), 2) 20 min of exercise performed...
