To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on Leptin and Leptin receptor (OB-Rb) of insulin resistant obese (OIR) rats, so as to explore its possible mechanism for obesity.

Twenty-four Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal, model and EA groups, with 8 rats in each group. The OIR model was established by feeding the rats with…[Read more]

001). The late PN group had a 0.50-unit greater decline in mean WAZ compared with the early PN group (95% CI, 0.11-0.89; P = .012).

Late PN initiation was associated with significantly lower adequacy of macronutrient delivery and greater decline in WAZ in critically ill children. The relationship between PN timing patient outcomes must be…[Read more]

Older age (HR = 0.97, 95% CI = 0.95-0.99, p = 0.02) had a protective effect for RR. Radiation papillopathy was diagnosed in 35 eyes (18%) after a median of 14 months after GKR. Macular or peripapillary location (HR = 3.06, 95% CI = 1.52-6.16, p = 0.002) was associated with increased risk of RP, while older age was protective (HR = 0.95, 95…[Read more]
