The expression of O-acetylated sialic acids in human colonic mucins is developmentally regulated, and a reduction of O-acetylation has been found to be associated with the early stages of colorectal cancer. Despite this, however, little is known about the enzymatic process of sialic acid O-acetylation in human colonic mucosa. Recently, we have reported on a human colon sialate-7(9)-O-acetyltran...

Myocardial inflammation is one of the commonest mechanisms in cardiomyopathy (CMP). Mannose binding lectin (MBL) is a key molecule in innate immunity, while macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a constitutive element of the host defenses. We investigated the possible association between polymorphisms of MBL2 and MIF genes and CMP in Turkish children. Twenty-children with CMP and 30 h...

A potentially low-risk surgery to improve hemodynamics and functional class in heart failure patients and others with advanced ventricular dysfunction, dynamic cardiomyoplasty (CMP) has been performed over 1,000 times worldwide. During long-term follow-up, arrhythmic sudden cardiac death remains a major cause of death with any advanced medical management (i.e., a 15%−50% risk of recurrent cardi...

BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW Authors of published studies have reported elevated levels of circulating antibodies to cow's milk protein (CMP) in patients with recurrent aphthous ulcers (RAUs), and authors of case reports have described resolution of RAU after dairy elimination. CASE DESCRIPTION A 10-year-old girl and an 11-year-old boy, both with 5-year histories of frequent RAU episodes, with mul...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Health fairs are a common method used by providers and health care organizations to provide screening tests, including comprehensive metabolic profiles (CMPs), to asymptomatic individuals. No national organizations currently recommend the complete CMP as a screening test for asymptomatic individuals in primary care settings. This study evaluated the value of CMPs in a ...

Identifying older adults with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) earlier is urgent because CMP is reportedly associated with deterioration in physical function, poor psychological status, and low physical activity level. The objective of this study was to identify factors that were most strongly associated with CMP in Japanese community-dwelling older adults.Using a cross-sectional design, we a...

AIMS Although the human heart was classically considered a terminal organ, recent studies have reported a myocyte proliferation response versus some aggressions. Excessive ethanol consumption induces development of cardiomyopathy (CMP) through myocyte apoptosis. We evaluated myocyte proliferation response in the heart of chronic alcoholic donors with telomerase activity (telomerase reverse tran...

The cluster multipole (CMP) expansion for magnetic structures provides a scheme to systematically generate candidate specifically including noncollinear configurations adapted the crystal symmetry of given material. A comparison with experimental data collected on MAGNDATA shows that most stable in nature are linear combinations only few CMPs. Furthermore, high-throughput calculation all is per...

A Fenton reaction and a corrosion inhibition strategy were designed for enhancing the polishing rate achieving corrosion-free Ge1Sb4Te5 film surface during chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) of three-dimensional (3D) cross-point phase-change random-access memory (PCRAM) cells 3D synaptic arrays. The was conducted with 1,3-propylenediamine tetraacetic acid, ferric ammonium salt (PDTA–Fe) H2...
