However, strain rate systole (SRS) and strain rate early diastole (SRED) are affected on both sides of VS compared with control. Á and SRDE of the left VS correlated significantly with SLEDAI (P ≤ .05). È of the right VS correlated with the duration of the disease (P ≤ .05).

Bilayer analysis of VS could helps in the evaluation of right…[Read more]

Currently, the most used pedagogical approach in pharmaceutical studies is transmissive teaching, in which students usually adopt a passive attitude. The aim of this article is to present the main characteristics of active learning, and to point how it can be integrated in pharmaceutical studies by the way of team-based learning. According to its…[Read more]

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become an important treatment option for older patients with severe aortic stenosis. However, not all patients benefit from this procedure in terms of functional outcome and quality of life. This complicates patient selection and shared decision-making. Postoperative delirium might negatively…[Read more]

22, 95% confidence interval 1.25-4,38.41, P=0.021) and neither HFrEF or HFpEF was an independent predictor for 30-day mortality. Among various admission parameters associated to PE outcome, only systolic pressure in HFrEF patients (P<0.001), heart rate (P=0.01), and right ventricle systolic pressure (P=0.039) in HFpEF patients were significantly…[Read more]

This paper presents the first wireless and programmable neural stimulator leveraging magnetoelectric (ME) effects for power and data transfer. Thanks to low tissue absorption, low misalignment sensitivity and high power transfer efficiency, the ME effect enables safe delivery of high power levels (a few milliwatts) at low resonant frequencies (…[Read more]

CONCLUSION Our results revealed a new mechanism of infiltrating macrophages contributing to neurofibroma progression, and targeting this newly identified signaling may help to treat neurofibroma. BACKGROUND Exercise can be beneficial for patients with colorectal cancer; however, few studies have evaluated the effect of exercise on cancer-related…[Read more]

A new lipoprotein testing method based on anion-exchange HPLC (AEX-HPLC) was recently established. We verified the accuracy of LDL-C levels, a primary therapeutic target for the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD), measured by AEX-HPLC comparing with LDL-C levels measured by beta quantification-reference measurement procedure (BQ-RMP),…[Read more]

The results of previous studies on the effect of low-dose aspirin in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles are limited and controversial.

To evaluate the effect of low-dose aspirin on the clinical pregnancy in the FET cycles.

This study was performed as a randomized clinical trial from May 2018 to February 2019; 128 women who…[Read more]

This work presents an alternative method to represent documents based on LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation) and how it affects to classification algorithms, in comparison to common text representation. LDA assumes that each document deals with a set of predefined topics, which are distributions over an entire vocabulary. Our main objective is to…[Read more]

A comparably high and economically interesting nanoparticle yield could be achieved with a process suitable for continuous manufacturing. Further studies are needed to understand the robustness of a continuous process at commercial scale.

Extracellular fructosyltransferase (FTase, E.C.2.4.1.9) from Aspergillus oryzae IPT-301 was immobilized on…[Read more]

The stratification of patients with HS into a severe axillary‒mammary‒groin phenotype with predominantly anterior body involvement in females, an axillary‒gluteal‒groin phenotype of intermediate severity mainly affecting males in the posterior body areas, and an axillary‒groin phenotype with mildest clinical symptoms…[Read more]
