Abnormal expression of c-fms proto-oncogene, which encodes for the macrophage colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) receptor, has been observed in a variety of carcinomas of epithelial origin, including those of the breast. Here, we have investigated the effect of retinoic acid (RA), an important regulator of normal differentiation of mammary epithelial tissues, on the expression of the c-fms gen...

The notion of ideal convergence is a process generalizing statistical which dependent on the idea $I$ subsets set positive integer numbers. In this study we also present concept for triple sequences in fuzzy metric spaces (FMS) manner George and Veeramani terms Cauchy sequence $I^{∗}$-Cauchy FMS their certain properties.

Health and social inequality are tightly linked and still pose an important public health problem. However, vulnerable and disadvantaged populations are difficult to reach for health-related interventions. Given the long-lasting effects of an adverse, particular nutrition-related, intrauterine and neonatal environment on health development (perinatal programming), an early and easy access is es...

BACKGROUND The mechanisms leading to the development of functional motor symptoms (FMS) are of pathophysiological and clinical relevance, yet are poorly understood. AIM The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether impaired emotional processing at the cognitive level (alexithymia) is present in patients affected by FMS. We conducted a cross-sectional study in a population of patients w...

Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic, idiopathic condition of widespread musculoskeletal pain affecting more women than men. Even though clinical studies have provided evidence of altered central pain pathways, the lack of definitive pathogenesis or reliable objective markers has hampered development of effective treatments. Here we report that the neuropeptides corticotropin-releasing horm...

Neurons in the Doppler-shifted constant frequency processing (DSCF) area in the primary auditory cortex of mustached bats, Pteronotus parnellii, are multifunctional, responding both to echolocation and communication sounds. Simultaneous presentation of a DSCF neuron's best low and high frequencies (BF(low) and BF(high), respectively) facilitates its response. BF(low) corresponds to a frequency ...

CONTEXT The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is an assessment tool for quality of human movement. Research reports a significant difference between FMS scores of subjects who later experienced injury and those who remain uninjured. OBJECTIVE To systematically review literature related to predictive validity of the FMS. From the aggregated data, a meta-analysis was conducted to determine the p...

This study presents the perceptions and practices of fundamental movement skills (FMS) in grassroots soccer coaches. One hundred twenty-eight coaches (123 males, 5 females) completed an online mixed-method survey comprising 32 questions relating to: participant demographics, education, qualifications; FMS perceptions, practices, assessments, importance constructs; other factors related to FMS. ...

Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a mysterious condition with uncertain physiopathogenesis. Despite its hermeneutic problems, FMS and related afflictions are responsible for the majority of family medicine and rheumatological medical office appointments. In spite of the skepticism of some, it seems that the medical science community has accepted FMS as a valid, unique clinical diagnosis and the ma...
