BACKGROUND Beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (beta2-AR) is a susceptibility locus for hypertension, and polymorphisms at this site relate to salt sensitivity and low plasma renin activity (PRA). The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) dietary pattern lowers blood pressure and appears to interact with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that the DASH...

BACKGROUND Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) has been shown to successfully reduce systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) when evaluated in clinically controlled environments but there is a lack of information regarding the efficacy of the original DASH diet when it is applied in a free-living environment. PURPOSE To provide descriptive data as to the changes in blood ...

Metalevel tools can support the software development process by automating the design of taskand application-speci c tools. Dash is a metalevel tool that allows developers to generate domain-speci c knowledge-acquisition tools from domain ontologies. Domain specialists use the knowledge-acquisition tools generated by dash to instantiate the concepts and relationships de ned in the domain ontolo...

BACKGROUND The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet is widely promoted in the USA for the prevention and treatment of high blood pressure. It is high in fruit and vegetables, low-fat dairy and wholegrain foods and low in saturated fat and refined sugar. To our knowledge, the use of this dietary pattern has not been assessed in a free-living UK population. METHODS The DASH diet ...

background: dietary approaches to stop hypertension (dash) eating plan is a healthy dietary pattern. our object is to review surveys in the field of major components of dash diet and different kinds of cancers. materials and methods: our search result from pubmed search engine recruited to find related articles. results: adherence to the dash diet components was significantly related to lower p...

background: insulin receptor substrate (irs) type 1 is a main substrate for the insulin receptor, controls insulin signaling in skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and the vascular, so it is an important candidate gene for insulin resistance (ir). we aimed to compare the  effects of the dietary approaches to stop hypertension (dash) and usual dietary advices (uda) on irs1 gene expression in women ...

HW/SW codesign tools are necessary to develop new processors in a short period of time, because both the hardware and a software development environment that includes a simulator, assembler, disassembler and compiler, need to be designed for the new processor. We have therefore develped C-DASH, a HW/SW codesign tool for designing processors. In addition, we have developed SSC-DASH (Server-Side ...

BACKGROUND Diagnosis and characterization of incisional hernia are often established by CT, which incurs radiation exposure and substantial cost in clinical practice. The purpose of this study was to determine the comparative effectiveness of surgeon-performed Dynamic Abdominal Sonography for Hernia (DASH) vs CT for incisional hernia evaluation. STUDY DESIGN Patients with previous abdominal o...
