Age-related muscle loss impacts on whole-body metabolism and leads to frailty and sarcopenia, which are risk factors for fractures and mortality. Although nutrients are integral to muscle metabolism the relationship between nutrition and muscle loss has only been extensively investigated for protein and amino acids. The objective of the present paper is to describe other aspects of nutrition an...

Cyberspace. A consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate operators, in every nation, by children being taught mathematical concepts . . . A graphical representation of data abstracted from the banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the nonspace of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, rec...

The present study was performed to evaluate the in vitro inhibitory potential of sarpogrelate and its active metabolite, M-1, on the activities of nine human cytochrome (CYP) isoforms. Using a cocktail assay, the effects of sarpogrelate on nine CYP isoforms and M-1 were measured by specific marker reactions in human liver microsomes. Sarpogrelate potently and selectively inhibited CYP2D6mediate...

President's Address The visibility of EUROMECH as the leading society for European scholars engaged in basic research in the Mechanical Sciences has been enhanced by establishing two types of awards: The EUROMECH Fluid and Solid Mechanics Prizes and EUROMECH Fellowships. We are very grateful to colleagues who took the initiative in preparing nomination files for Fluid Mechanics Prizes and Fello...

In pure alexia (PA)—an acquired reading disorder consequent on posterior left-hemisphere stroke— the hallmark is a pronounced and abnormal impact of word length on reading speed. Some patients with semantic dementia (SD)—a neurodegenerative condition affecting semantic memory—have also been reported to show an abnormal word length effect (AWLE) in reading, even though they are not thought to ha...

Introduction: Liver disease results in complex pathophysiologic disturbances affecting nutrient digestion, absorption, distribution, storage, and use. This article aimed to present a classification of metabolic disturbances in chronic liver disease in children?   Materials and Methods: In this review study databases including proquest, pubmedcentral, scincedirect, ovid, medlineplus were been se...

Recently, inflammation has been found to be a significant factor in the development of Schizophrenia (SCZ). The aim of the present research was to investigate whether interleukin-33 (IL-33, OMIM: 608678) gene polymorphism (rs11792633, C/T) is associated with the development of SCZ or not.DNA was isolated from the serum of 70 patients with SCZ and 70 healthy controls. The PCR based method was us...
