The contamination of ecosystem compartments by microplastics (MPs) is an ubiquitous problem. MPs have been observed in mice tissues, and recently human blood, stool placenta. However, two aspects remain unclear: whether accumulate peripheral organs, specifically the liver, if liver cirrhosis favours this process. We aimed to examine tissue samples determine liver.This proof-of-concept case series, conducted Germany, Europe, analyzed 6 patients with 5 individuals without underlying disease. A...
Summary Aging decreases the human femur’s fatigue resistance, impact energy absorption, and ability to withstand load. Changes in osteocyte distribution their elemental composition might be involved age‐related bone impairment. To address this question, we carried out a histomorphometric assessment of lacunar periosteal endosteal femoral cortexes 16 female male donors with regard age‐ sex‐related remodeling. Measurements mineral density by quantitative backscattered electron imaging...
Regular physical activity is associated with a reduced risk of all-cause mortality, and mortality due to cardiovascular disease cancer. Among adolescents, benefits in the prevention control emotional distress, improvement self-esteem. Countries transitional epidemiological scenarios, such as Chile, need develop effective strategies improve way face epidemic chronic diseases. The objective this study was evaluate effects school-based program on fitness mental health status adolescents living...
In addition to decreasing bone mass, vitamin D deficiency causes early aging of the remaining mineralized and leads severe losses in fracture resistance.
Osteocytes are ramified bone cells distributed throughout the matrix within a network of micrometer-scale cavities (lacunae) and numerous nanometer-thick tunnels (canaliculi). The integrity canalicular might influence quality reflect its mechanosensory potential. In this study, we applied an acid etching technique to embedded specimens that allows 3D observation across 2D plane quantitatively assess connections in cortical from young aged individuals. Our results showed nearly 30% reduction...
The Hamburg City Health Study (HCHS) is a large, prospective, long-term, population-based cohort study and unique research platform network to obtain substantial knowledge about several important risk prognostic factors in major chronic diseases. A random sample of 45,000 participants between 45 74 years age from the general population Hamburg, Germany, are taking part an extensive baseline assessment at one dedicated center. Participants undergo 13 validated 5 novel examinations primarily...
Coagulopathy and inflammation are hallmarks of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) associated with increased mortality. Clinical experimental data have revealed a role for neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in COVID-19 disease. The mechanisms that drive thrombo-inflammation poorly understood.
More than 18 types of human papillomavirus (HPV) are associated with cervical cancer, the relative importance HPV may vary in different populations.To investigate HPV, age distribution, and risk factors for infection women from Santiago, Chile.We interviewed obtained two specimens a population-based random sample 1,038 sexually active (age range, 15-69 years). Specimens were tested presence DNA using GP5+/6+ primer-mediated PCR cytologic abnormalities by Papanicolaou smears.122 positive DNA,...
The sterolin locus (ABCG5/ABCG8) confers susceptibility for cholesterol gallstone disease in humans. Both the responsible variant and molecular mechanism causing an increased incidence of gallstones these patients have as yet not been identified. Genetic mapping utilized patient samples from Germany (2,808 cases, 2,089 controls), Chile (680 442 Denmark (366 766 India (247 224 China (280 244 controls). Analysis allelic imbalance complementary DNA (cDNA) human liver (n = 22) was performed...
