BACKGROUND Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a naturally occurring linoleic acid isomer found in ruminant-produced foods, has the potential to serve as an effective chemopreventive nutriceutical factor for breast cancer prevention based upon previous published studies. There are several CLA isomers in ruminant-produced food products, among which t10,c12-CLA and c9,t11-CLA are more potent. Express...

BACKGROUND The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is a new regional anaesthesia technique that provides analgesia after abdominal surgery. It involves injection of local anaesthetic into the plane between the transversus abdominis and the internal oblique muscles. The TAP block can be performed using a landmark technique through the lumbar triangle or with ultrasound guidance. The goal of ...

BACKGROUND Dexmedetomidine is a useful sedative drug with various uses. We designed this study to investigate the clinical effects and complications of different loading doses, 0.5 and 1.0 µg/kg. METHODS Forty six patients, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I and II, who required elective and emergency operation under spinal anesthesia were randomly assigned to group L ...

This study aimed to verify the association between the contribution of energy systems during an incremental exercise test (IET), pacing, and performance during a 10-km running time trial. Thirteen male recreational runners completed an incremental exercise test on a treadmill to determine the respiratory compensation point (RCP), maximal oxygen uptake (V˙O2max), peak treadmill speed (PTS), and ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of inertial training with different external loads using a new original device - the Inertial Training and Measurement System (ITMS). Forty-six physical education male students were tested. The participants were randomly divided into three training groups and a control group (C group). The training groups performed inertial training with th...

Abdominal muscles are the principal muscles of active expiration. To investigate the possibility of abdominal muscle low-frequency fatigue after maximal ventilation in humans, we stimulated the nerve roots supplying the abdominal muscles. We used a magnetic stimulator (Magstim 200) powering a 90-mm circular coil and studied six normal subjects. To assess the optimum level of stimulation and pos...

Jatropha curcas plants species were tested to evaluate their phytoremediation capacity in soils contaminated by different levels of mercury. The experimental treatments consisted of four levels of mercury concentrations in the soil - T0, T1, T5, and T10 (0, 1, 5, and 10 μg Hg per g soil, respectively). The total mercury content absorbed by the different plant tissues (roots, stems and leaves) w...

OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of timing of intraoperative parathormone (iPTH) samples and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) status on decision-making during parathyroidectomy. METHODS A total of 77 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and iPTH levels (preincision, preremoval, 5 (T5) and 10 (T10) minutes postremoval) performed during parathyroidectomy were reviewed. RESULTS Forty-one percen...
