Biochemical data were measured and we conducted a questionnaire survey on health, lifestyle, and nutrition, as well as freq...

The development of wireless technologies has been stimulated by the ever increasing network capacity and the diversity of users’ quality of service (QoS) requirements. It is widely anticipated that next-generation wireless networks should be capable of integrating wireless networks with various network architectures and wireless access technologies to provide diverse high-quality ubiquitous wir...

Background: Previous studies have reported that green tea consumption is associated with a lower risk of diseases that cause functional disability, such as stroke, cognitive impairment, and osteoporosis. Although it is expected that green tea consumption would lower the risk of incident functional disability, this has never been investigated directly. Objective: The objective was to determine t...
