BACKGROUND Web-based, computer-tailored nutrition education interventions can be effective in modifying self-reported dietary behaviors. Traditional computer-tailored programs primarily targeted individual cognitions (knowledge, awareness, attitude, self-efficacy). Tailoring on additional variables such as self-regulation processes and environmental-level factors (the home food environment arra...

Results It was included 51 infants (31 M) with median age of first anaphylaxis episode at 6 mo (range 0.03-20 mo). Criterion 1 was the most prevalent (36 patients) at anaphylaxis diagnosis followed by criterion 2 (15 patients). Fresh milk was the trigger in 39 patients and dairy products in 12. Anaphylaxis was the first manifestation of CMA in 36 patients. There was recurrence of episodes in 37...

in a fuzzy metric space (x;m; *), where * is a continuous t-norm,a locally fuzzy contraction mapping is de ned. it is proved that any locally fuzzy contraction mapping is a global fuzzy contractive. also, if f satis es the locally fuzzy contractivity condition then it satis es the global fuzzy contrac-tivity condition.

Preventive vaccination is a highly promising strategy for interrupting leishmaniasis transmission that can, additionally, contribute to elimination. A vaccine formulation based on naturally excreted secreted (ES) antigens was prepared from L. infantum promastigote culture supernatant. This vaccine achieved successful results in Phase III trials and was licensed and marketed as CaniLeish. We rec...

AQP11 is one of the latest aquaporin (AQP) family members found, which differs from the other AQPs by its intracellular localisation and unusual water pore nucleotides with unclear function. Despite the highest mRNA expression among organs having been reported in the testis, the testicular molecule has not been studied in detail. Immunohistochemistry of rat adult testis localised AQP11 to the e...

Introduction: In this study we compared transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) elicited motor evoked potentials (MEPs) in a postural (bilateral low back extension: BLBE) and a respiratory (forced expiration during breath holding: FEBH) task.Methods: Using TMS of the left motor cortex, simultaneous patterns of corticospinal facilitation of the contralateral erector spinae (ES) and rectus abdomi...
