In the intention-to-treat analysis for men and for women, there were no significant effects for treatment or time on MVPA. In a planned secondary analysis that considered only those adherent to EFI (completed ≥ 66% of sessions; per-protocol), bouted MVPA (ie, in sustained bouts of ≥ 10 min) was higher in women in the EFI group (mean= 132.6 ± 135.…[Read more]

Goblet cells (GCs) in the intestine are specialized epithelial cells that secrete mucins to form the protective mucous layer. GCs are important in maintaining intestinal homeostasis, and the alteration of GCs is observed in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) and neoplastic lesions. In the Barrett’s esophagus, the presence of GCs is used as a…[Read more]

The AOFAS’ Ankle-Hindfoot scale showed good and excellent results; mean score was 92.75 points (86-98p) at oneyear after the surgery.

Arthroscopic-assisted management of talar fractures offers the advantages of minimally invasive surgery combined with good visualization of the fracture, good control of anatomic reduction, and the…[Read more]

The children with overweight and obesity spent less time per day in MVPA. An increased body mass in mothers during pregnancy associated with a child’s low level of physical activity increases the risk of the occurrence of overweight and obesity.Precision glass molding is the most appropriate method for batch production of glass lenses with high…[Read more]

Mycobacterium abscessus infections are notoriously difficult to be treated and newer treatment options are required. Coptis chinensis (C. chinensis) and its main compound berberine are frequently used to treat bacterial and viral infections. In this study, the susceptibility of M. abscessus to C. chinensis extract and berberine was assessed by…[Read more]

There were concerns regarding the risk of bias within individual studies and Egger’s test of the intercept showed evidence of small study effects (β = -3.6, p = .004). These findings provide in vitro evidence that the transient serological responses to acute exercises reduce cancer cell growth, although many questions remain regarding the…[Read more]

Cadmium contamination is a severe threat to food safety. Therefore, the development of sensitive and selective cadmium detection strategies is urgently required. The elimination of background autofluorescence generated from the food matrix is critical to the optical assay for cadmium detection. Herein, a time-resolved phosphorescence sensor based…[Read more]
