Background: Systolic to diastolic blood flow velocity (SDFV) ratio in the brachial artery recently proved to be related to cardiovascular risk and carotid atherosclerosis. We hypothesized that the SDFV ratio was related to established markers of vascular function and global atherosclerosis. Methods: Established markers of endothelial function in forearm resistance vessels, flow-mediated vasodil...
Interest in the role of personality traits in predicting academic performance outcomes has steadily increased over the last several decades, enough to produce a number of meta-analyses that summarize this research (e.g., Poropat, 2009; Richardson, Abraham, & Bond, 2012). These previous meta-analyses combine a variety of alternative personality measures under the assumption that they all reflect...
Since 20 years the concept of specific imidazoline receptors has remained controversial. The problem with imidazoline receptors is mostly due to their functional similarity to alpha-adrenoceptors. In this work, a pharmacodynamic model of isolated rat jejunum longitudinal muscle strips constricted with acetylcholine (Ach) was applied to separate functional properties of the two types of receptor...
The in vivo optical and hemodynamic properties of the healthy (n = 22) and pathological (n = 2) human thyroid tissue were measured non-invasively using a custom time-resolved spectroscopy (TRS) and diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) system. Medical ultrasound was used to guide the placement of the hand-held hybrid optical probe. TRS measured the absorption and reduced scattering coefficient...
BACKGROUND Fatigue is common among glioma patients undergoing radiotherapy (RT) and impacts quality of life (QOL). We evaluated whether armodafinil, a wakefulness-promoting medication, improves fatigue in glioma patients undergoing RT. METHODS Eligibility criteria included age ≥18 years, Karnofsky performance status ≥60, and grade 2-4 glioma undergoing RT to a total dose of 50-60 Gy. Patients...
Abstract. Water resource management (WRM) practices, such as groundwater and surface water abstractions effluent discharges, may impact baseflow. Here the CAMELS-GB large-sample hydrology dataset is used to assess impacts of practices on Baseflow Index (BFI) using statistical models 429 catchments from Great Britain. Two complementary modelling schemes, multiple linear regression (LR) machine l...
a r t i c l e i n f o Conscientiousness is often found to predict academic outcomes, but is defined differently by different models of personality. High school students (N = 291) completed a large number of Conscientiousness items from different models and the Big Five Inventory (BFI). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis of the items uncovered Correlations between these facets and the ...
Objective: Regarding numerous studies in the literature involving Goldberg’s big 5 factor inventory (BFI), it is safe to assume that factor structure of BFI is highly valid. The main goal of this study is to assess whether network analysis can reproduce the results of exploratory factor analysis and if so, will the plotted network of items provide new insights? Method: In the present study, th...
PURPOSE To assess the efficacy of pregabalin by showing differences in the neuronal activities of fibromyalgia (FM) patients before and after longitudinal treatment using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 21 female patients with FM and 11 age- and gender-matched healthy controls participated. FM patients underwent fMRI at baseline and following phar...
Persistent cancer-related fatigue (PCRF) is a symptom experienced by many cancer survivors. Acupressure offers a potential treatment for PCRF. We investigated if acupressure treatments with opposing actions would result in differential effects on fatigue and examined the effect of different "doses" of acupressure on fatigue. We performed a trial of acupressure in cancer survivors experiencing m...
