We propose a simple low-energy classical experiment in which the effects of noncommutativity can be clearly separated from commutative physics. The ensuing bound on the noncommutative scale is remarkable, especially in view of its elementary derivation. Noncommutative mechanics has recently been under intensive investigation [1, 2]. It uses the following basic commutators for the coordinates qi...

Price and availability of pomegranate juice (PJ) are indeed two major issues. The daily cost of PJ consumption is ranging from 0.5 to 1 $ per day, according to the dose used. PJ is available in almost all Western and several Asian countries. PJ is preserved in deep refrigeration and is readily available during the entire year. PJ circulates mainly in two forms: pure juice in 200 to 500 mL bottl...

PURPOSE Various pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) techniques have been devised to minimize the rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). This study describes a modification of the mattress suture PJ technique, which we call "inverted mattress PJ (IM)". The results of an IM group and a historical consecutive control group were compared to determine how the IM te...

Objectives. The aim of our study was to evaluate and compare the results of pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) and pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Methods. Published data of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) comparing the clinically relevant outcomes of PG versus PJ after PD were analyzed. Two reviewers assessed the quality of each trial and collected data independently...

Pomegranate Juice (PJ) and Green Tea (GT) products have increased in popularity because of their beneficial health properties. Consumers look for healthier beverages, and rely on labels, claims, and product packaging when choosing a product. The objectives of this study were to determine (1) the sensory profiles and acceptance of PJ and GT blends; (2) whether additional information would have a...

INTRODUCTION Diabetes mellitus characterized by hyperglycemia could increase oxidative stress and formation of advanced glycated end-products (AGEs), which contribute to diabetic complications. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of pomegranate juice (PJ) containing natural antioxidant on lipid peroxidation and plasma AGEs in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). MATERIALS AND M...

BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with hyperglycemia, inflammatory disorders and abnormal lipid profiles. Several functional foods have therapeutic potential to treat chronic diseases including diabetes. The therapeutic potential of pomegranate has been stated by multitudinous scientists. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of pomegranate juice and seed powder...

Phytochemicals from fruits such as the pomegranate (Punica granatum L) may inhibit cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis through the modulation of cellular transcription factors and signaling proteins. In previous studies, pomegranate juice (PJ) and its ellagitannins inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in HT-29 colon cancer cells. The present study examined the effects of PJ on infl...
