Highly predictive sentential contexts can facilitate the generation of expectancies for low-level physical form-based properties of upcoming linguistic input. When contextual information (such as words in a sentence) constrains upcoming input to a specific syntactic category, words with category-typical physical form-based properties are processed more quickly than category atypical words. We a...

The amount and form of nitrogen lost from the human small intestine and the dietary factors which influence it have been studied in six ileostomists. Over a six day period the subjects were fed a series of diets including low nitrogen (LND) 0.17 g N/day, LND + soya beans (5.87 g N/day) and a high fibre diet (HFD) (10.6 g N/day). The soya beans were fed either whole or pureed to test the effect ...

Food consists of a complex group of substances that differ in chemical composition and physical structure. Collectively these substances form a matrix and it is the behaviour of this matrix which determines the digestibility, the rate and extent of nutrient release, from a food during normal gut transit. In the process of digestion both chemical and physical degradation of food occurs. Chemical...

BACKGROUND Despite therapeutic effect of hemodialysis in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, these patients encounter different physical and psychological tensional factors. Physical exercises have beneficial physical and psychological effects on patients under hemodialysis as one of the accessory therapeutic methods. As few studies have been done about the effects of physical exercise on ...

many aspects of the lives of migraineurs are commonly affected by the condition, including occupational affairs, social and family life, responsibilities and ultimately the quality of life. this study was designed to determine the effect of orem's self-care nursing model on quality of life in patients with a migraine. this study was carried out in tehran, iran. according to the pre-post design ...
