57-0.97) and dog ownership (OR 0.79; 95% CI 0.66-0.95) reduced the odds of any atopic disease, but not of RRTIs. Daycare attendance (OR 1.22; 95% CI 1.02-1.47) was associated with RRTIs, but not with atopic diseases. A family history of asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, and RRTIs was significantly associated with the same entity in…[Read more]

In contrast, the Clostridium of the family Peptostreptococcaceae and unidentified genus of family Enterobacteriaceae were significantly abundant in the PBS control group. In summary, in ovo administration of a defined LAM isolated from adult hens did not affect hatchability, improved body weight gain and reduced mortality at d7, induced variations…[Read more]

Individuals carrying the C allele of rs3751284 were susceptible to PPD features when exposed to higher levels of emotional neglect (P<0.05); Individuals with the G allele of rs6680461 were susceptible to PPD features when exposed to higher levels of emotional, physical and sexual abuse (P<0.01).

These results suggest that the interaction…[Read more]

Physical forces, such as dielectric, magnetic, electric, optical, and acoustic force, provide useful principles for the manipulation of particles, which are impossible or difficult with other approaches. Microparticles, including polymer particles, liquid droplets, and biological cells, can be trapped at a particular position and are also…[Read more]

mia may underlie neurodegeneration in RVCL-S.

To assess whether connective tissue disorder is evident in patients with spontaneous cervical artery dissection and therefore identify patients at risk of recurrence using a cutting-edge quantitative proteomics approach.

In the ReSect study, all patients with spontaneous cervical artery…[Read more]

The companion dog has recently been promoted as powerful translational model of aging. However, while dogs share environments with their human owners and develop many of the same age-related morbidities, little is known about the underlying mechanisms that drive their health and longevity. In addition, dogs have a well described phenotypic pattern…[Read more]

Interferon (IFN)-free regimens for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C have shown high rates of sustained virological response (SVR) and improved patient-reported outcomes (PROs). The aim of this study was to evaluate the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and fatigue of patients with chronic hepatitis C (HCV) treated with IFN-free…[Read more]

Glycopolymers based on dextran are frequently prepared via ATRP, whereas the use of RAFT polymerization is strangely limited due to the difficult synthesis of Dextran-based macromolecular chain transfer agent (DexCTA). The aim of this work is to establish a controlled and reproducible methodology for its preparation. Direct esterification of the…[Read more]

Approximately 66% of college students gain weight in their first year of college and continue to gain weight at a higher rate than the general population. On-campus clinics are often the only contact this generally healthy population has with healthcare providers.
