background: to validate the persian version of the simple shoulder test in patients with shoulder joint problems.   methods: following beaton`s guideline, translation and back translation was conducted. we reached to a consensus on the persian version of sst. to test the face validity in a pilot study, the persian sst was administered to 20 individuals with shoulder joint conditions. we enrolle...

This work describes reactions of heteroallenes with diamido-diamine cyclam-based Zr(iv) complexes of the general formula (Bn2Cyclam)ZrX2 (X = O(t)Bu, , O(i)Pr, , SPh, , NH(t)Bu, ) as well as the di-orthometallated species ((C6H4CH2)2Cyclam)Zr, . The reactions of isocyanates or isothiocyanates with , or resulted in the formation of N-bonded ureate or thioureate cyclam complexes upon [2 + 2] cycl...

Evidence suggests that obesity may raise blood pressure (BP) through oxidative stress-sensitive mechanisms and that the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension combination diet (DASH-CD) may decrease BP by enhancing antioxidant capacity. To address this question, 12 obese patients with high-normal-to-stage 1 hypertension (hypertensives) and 12 lean normotensives were studied on their usual diet...

Abstract We present the H 160 morphological catalogs for COSMOS-DASH survey, largest area near-IR survey using HST-WFC3 to date. Utilizing “Drift And SHift” observing technique imaging, imaged approximately 0.5 deg 2 of UltraVISTA deep stripes (0.7 , when combined with archival data). Global structural parameters are measured 51,586 galaxies within GALFIT (excluding CANDELS area) detection a mu...

β-Diketiminato cyclopentadienyl and ferrocenylethynyl germylenes LGeR (L = HC[C(Me)N-2,6-iPr2C6H3]2, R = Cp () and C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CFc ()) were prepared and utilized to synthesize the Ge[double bond, length as m-dash]Te bond species. Reactions of , , and LGeC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh () with an excess of Te powder proceeded in toluene under reflux successfully yielded g...

Background and Objectives: Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating pattern, a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy with a reduced content of sodium, saturated fat, and total fat is introduced as an appropriate diet for hypertension. This eating pattern was basically designed to normalize blood pressure in patients with hypertension, and a large body of d...

OBJECTIVE To examine the association between diet quality and both diabetes status and insulin resistance in Hispanic/Latino adults, and the extent to which differences in diet quality contribute to differences in outcomes across Hispanic/Latino heritage. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Cross-sectional study. Data are from 15 942 individuals enrolled in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study o...

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the publica­ tion showing the blood pressure–lowering effects of the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet.1 The DASH diet is considered an important ad­ vance in nutritional science. It emphasizes foods rich in protein, fiber, potassium, magnesium, and calcium, such as fruits and vegetables, beans, nuts, whole grains, and low-fat dairy. It ...

DASH (Drosophila, Arabidopsis, Synechocystis, Human)-type cryptochromes (cry-DASH) belong to a family of flavoproteins acting as repair enzymes for UV-B-induced DNA lesions (photolyases) or as UV-A/blue light photoreceptors (cryptochromes). They are present in plants, bacteria, various vertebrates, and fungi and were originally considered as sensory photoreceptors because of their incapability ...

BACKGROUND The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model of the consequences of disease identifies three health outcomes, impairment, activity limitations and participation restrictions. However, few orthopaedic health outcome measures were developed with reference to the ICF. This study examined the ability of a valid and frequently used measure of upper li...
