Tillage operation aims to create a favorable environment for seed germination of agricultural crop production practices. Physio-mechanical properties of soil directly affecting soil behaviors and determinants in initial conditions affecting soil fail…
ABSTRACT: This study compared the efficacy and safety of two highly purified (HP) human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) preparations, Gynogen HP and Menopur, in women undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) for in vitro fertilization (IVF). A m…
This work reports a simple yet unique way of tailoring the morphology of M-type Strontium Hexaferrite, SrFeO(SFO) particles inside the nanofibers. The reported materials were synthesized by the polymer-sol-assisted electrospinning technique followed…
BACKGROUND: Neonatal brain injury is a major global health challenge, disproportionately affecting low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), where access to specialized care remains limited. Technology-driven neuroprotective strategies may allow the d…
Conducting high-quality clinical research requires collaborative, interdisciplinary efforts, sustained institutional leadership, and adequate financial support - resources that are unfortunately insufficient across much of Latin America. This situati…
Mitochondria adapt to increased energy demands during muscle contraction by acutely altering metabolite fluxes and substrate oxidation. With age, an impaired mitochondrial metabolic response may contribute to reduced exercise tolerance and decreased…
Mitochondria are central to cellular energy production, and their dysfunction is a major contributor to oxidative stress and chronic inflammation, pivotal factors in aging, and related diseases. With aging, mitochondrial efficiency declines, leading…
BACKGROUND: Employers are key in supporting stroke survivors to return to work (RTW) but do not always have knowledge/skills or guidance to do so. OBJECTIVES: To explore employers' needs for provision of post-stroke RTW support. METHODS: Mixed-method…
People with hepatitis C should be identified and promptly linked to care after diagnosis to eliminate hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection by 2030. An implementation intervention, an HCV screening and linkage to care intervention, the FOCUS program, hig…
Quenching is essential for terminating chlorination and preserving halogenated disinfection byproducts (X-DBPs) in disinfected waters. However, the effects of quenchers on the chemodiversity and stability of low- and non-volatile X-DBPs are still poo…
Recently, the issue of electromagnetic pollution has become increasingly prominent. Flexible polymer films with various conductive fillers are preferred to address this problem due to their highly efficient and durable electromagnetic interference (E…
Mitochondria‑derived peptides (MDPs) are a unique class of peptides encoded by short open reading frames in mitochondrial DNA, including the mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S ribosomal RNA type‑c (MOTS‑c). Recent studies suggest that MDPs o…
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a coronary emergency that arises from myocardial ischemia and thrombosis and can be triggered by the rupture of a subcutaneous unstable plaque within the coronary artery or coronary artery erosion. The current study a…
Five polypeptides with a potential umami taste were isolated and purified from Yanjin black bone chicken. However, the flavor characteristics and umami mechanism have not been clarified. The umami properties of these five peptides were investigated i…
This clinical study combined alanyl-glutamine and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs) to investigate the effects of parenteral nutrition on postoperative inflammation and nutritional status in patients with gastroduodenal perforation to p…
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a useful process that could be utilized for food waste (FW) management. Previous studies have shown that carbon materials (CMs) could be an important additive for increasing biomethane yield. However, why CMs improve AD is…
We studied the reparative and antioxidant effects of thymogen (10 and 100 μg/kg) and its modifications in equimolar doses (12 and 120 μg/kg) obtained by attaching the amino acid D-alanine (D-Ala) to the N- or C-terminus of the peptide molecule. A sin…
PURPOSE: To investigate the combined effects of oral nutritional supplement (ONS) and intestinal microecology on postoperative nutrition status, inflammatory response and intestinal flora regulation colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. METHODS: This pro…
This study explored relationship between concentrations of perchlorate, nitrate, and thiocyanate and serum liver function markers using data from 3366 adults in the 2013-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) of the United Sta…
