Effectiveness of a Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program on Persistent Asthma Stratified for SeverityBACKGROUND:Asthma is defined by airway inflammation associated with various respiratory symptoms, and pharmacologic treatment is based on inhaled corticosteroids and bronchodilators. Physical activity, educational training, nutritional support, and psychological counseling are considered part of non-pharmacologic treatment; however, studies so far have investigated the effect of single non-pharmacologic...

Alcohol-mediated behaviours and the gut-brain axis; with focus on glucagon-like peptide-1.Related ArticlesAlcohol-mediated behaviours and the gut-brain axis; with focus on glucagon-like peptide-1. Brain Res. 2019 Nov 21;:146562 Authors: Elisabet J Abstract The neurochemical mechanisms that regulate development of alcohol use disorder (AUD) are complex, and gut-brain peptides were recently pinpointed as novel modulators. Gut-brain peptides, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), are well known for...

The Effects of Different Exercise Trainings on Suprahyoid Muscle Activation, Tongue Pressure Force and Dysphagia Limit in Healthy SubjectsAbstract Suprahyoid muscle activation and tongue pressure force play a critical role for swallowing function. In addition, dysphagia limit is one of most important factors indicating swallowing efficiency. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of 8-week training sessions of three different exercises including chin tuck against resistance (CTAR),...

Study tracks genomic changes that reinforce darter speciationWhen they share habitat, orangethroat and rainbow darters tend to avoid one another, even though they are closely related and can produce 'hybrid' offspring. A new study offers an analysis of the genomic changes that occur when these fish hybridize, offering insight into the gradual accumulation of incompatible traits that likely drives them to diverge.Evolutionary Biology News -- ScienceDailyMon Nov 25, 2019 19:09Mark above section as...

While the effects of increased N input on moss-associated N2 fixation has been comprehensively assessed, hardly...

Improvement of the robustness to set up error by a virtual bolus in total scalp irradiation with Helical TomoTherapyAbstractIntensity-modulated radiation therapy has recently been used for total scalp irradiation. In inverse planning, the treatment planning system increases the fluence of tangential beam near the skin surface to counter the build-up region. Consequently, the dose to the skin surface increases even with small setup errors. Replacing the electron density of the surrounding air of some...

Explaining the Illusion of Asymmetric InsightAbstractPeople tend to think that they know others better than others know them (Pronin et al. in Journal of Personality and Social Psychology 81: 639–656, 2001). This phenomenon is known as the "illusion of asymmetric insight." While the illusion has been well documented by a series of recent experiments, less has been done to explain it. In this paper, we argue that extant explanations are inadequate because they either get the explanatory direction...

Intra-articular injection of hUC-MSCs expressing miR-140-5p induces cartilage self-repairing in the rat osteoarthritisAbstractIntroductionCurrently, osteoarthritis (OA) receives global increasing attention because it associates severe joint pain and serious disability. Stem cells intra-articular injection therapy showed a potential therapeutic superiority to reduce OA development and to improve treating outputs. However, the long-term effect of stem cells intra-articular injection on the cartilage...

Effect of Uric Acid Control on Serum CreatinineObjective Hyperuricemia has been epidemiologically associated with multiple comorbidities including chronic renal failure and cardiovascular disease. Cause and effect are difficult to address, given comorbidities associated with and prevalence of metabolic syndrome. One impediment to achieving serum uric acid (sUa) levels less than or equal to 6.0 mg/DL is the concept that allopurinol might be nephrotoxic. We examined the relation of sUa less than or...

In addition, current rapid-acting insulin analogues are not fast enough to control excessive postprandial glucose excursions in...
