survival analysis is a set of methods used for analysis of the data which exist until the occurrence of an event. this study aimed to compare the results of the use of the semi-parametric cox model with parametric models to determine the factors influencing the length of stay of patients in the inpatient units of women hospital in tehran, iran. in this historical cohort study all 3421 charts of...

Maintaining proteostasis is thought to be a key factor in slowed aging. In several growth-restricted models of long-life, we have shown evidence of increased proteostatic mechanisms, suggesting that proteostasis may be a shared characteristic of slowed aging. The Snell dwarf mouse is generated through the mutation of the Pit-1 locus causing reductions in multiple hormonal growth factors and mTO...

Snell dwarf mice have multiple hormonal deficits, but the way in which these deficits postpone aging are still uncertain. In this study, Snell dwarf mice received 11 weeks of growth hormone and thyroxine injections that increased their weight by approximately 45%, although they remained much smaller than controls. The hormone treatment also restored fertility to male dwarf mice. Despite these e...
