Background: Performance related musculoskeletal and associated health issues are prominent amongst musicians. The aim of this study was to explore self-reported musculoskeletal and related health issues in undergraduate music students. A further goal was to ascertain how these problems impact students’ learning and playing their instruments. Materials and Methods: A longitudinal mixed me...

introduction: this study was designed to investigate the effects of music in wistar rats after sub-chronic treatment of simvastatin. the rats were orally administered with either simvastatin or saline (controls). after 4 weeks of drug treatment, the rats were selected for behavioral studies. the rats were exposed to music 24 hours before behavioral tests (mozart’s piano sonata, kv361, largo). r...

Objective: Postmenopausal osteoporosis is characterized by increased fracture risk. However, each approved treatment has specific side effects. Therefore, foods with plant origins have increasingly attracted attention as an alternative treatment. Studies have shown that Elaeagnus angustifolia (EA) has antioxidant properties. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of EA hydroalcoholi...

Ellagic acid (EA) present in many fruits and nuts serves as antiproliferation, anti-inflammatory, and antitumorigenic properties. However, the effect of EA on preadipocytes adipogenesis and its mechanism(s) have not been elucidated. The present study was designed to examine the effect of EA on adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and underlying mechanism(s) of action involved. Data show that EA...

Enterprise architecture (EA) is a description of an organization from the integrated business and IT perspective intended to facilitate information systems planning. Popular EA frameworks 1, 2 , books 3, 4 and even academic articles 5 suggest that EA provides comprehensive descriptions of the current and future states of an organization as well as a transition roadmap between them. Essentially,...

In practice it is difficult to maintain a high quality enterprise architecture (EA) model with regards to its actuality and completeness. However, neither literature from practice and EA frameworks nor EA research literature provide sufficient guidance for the difficult task of maintaining EA models. Recently, researchers have presented methods to collect structured data from existing data sour...

The efficacy of electroacupuncture (EA) on epilepsy remains to be verified because of previous controversies that might be due to the complexity of the effects induced by different acupoints and stimulation approaches adopted. Therefore, we investigated the effects of EA on epilepsy to determine the specific acupoints and optimal stimulation parameters in this work. Experimental epilepsy was in...
