Objective: The objective of this Expert Consensus Statement is to assist clinicians in achieving remission type 2 diabetes (T2D) adults using diet as a primary intervention. Evidence-informed statements agreed upon by multi-disciplinary panel expert healthcare professionals were used. Methods: Panel members with expertise treatment, research, and followed an established methodology for developing consensus modified Delphi process. A search strategist systematically reviewed the literature,...
To focus on the intersection of perception, diagnosis, stigma, and weight bias in management obesity obtain consensus actionable steps to improve care provided for persons with obesity.The American Association Clinical Endocrinology (AACE) convened a conference interdisciplinary health professionals discuss interplay between diagnosis using adiposity-based chronic disease (ABCD) nomenclature staging, internalized (IWB) development guidance aid clinicians mitigating IWB stigma that...
Purpose To determine the prevalence of secondary causes bone loss among patients with breast cancer osteopenia and osteoporosis. Patients Methods All women referred to a health clinic over 6-year period for evaluation were included in this retrospective study stratified based on presence or absence history. The two groups was compared. Results Of 238 identified, 64 had cancer. non–breast group (n = 174) significantly older (P .015), lower mean weight .019), 25 hydroxy-vitamin D level greater...
Women exposed to phthalates during pregnancy are at increased risk for delivering preterm, but the mechanism behind this relationship is unknown. Placental corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) key mediators of parturition regulated by non-canonical NF-kB (RelB/p52) signaling pathway. In study, we demonstrate that one major phthalate metabolites, mono-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (MEHP), CRH COX-2 mRNA protein abundance in a dose-dependent manner primary cultures...
The mineralocorticoid receptor (MCR) in the brain of adult male rats was analyzed with aid an antiserum generated by immunizing rabbits this protein purified biochemically from rat kidney. In Western blots, antibody recognized a single band about 98 kD all target tissues studied to date. granular cells cerebellum appeared be richest region central nervous system MCR dot blots and immunoperoxidase staining. High immunoreactivity also observed dorsal ventral hippocampus, as well anterior,...
Regulated gene expression makes an important contribution to cell cycle control mechanisms. In fission yeast, a group of genes is coordinately expressed during late stage the (M phase and cytokinesis) that controlled by common cis-acting promoter motifs named pombe boxes (PCBs), which are bound trans-acting transcription factor complex, PCB binding (PBF). PBF contains at least three factors, MADS box protein Mbx1p two forkhead Sep1p Fkh2p. Here we show yeast Cdc14p-like phosphatase Clp1p...
The whole body extracts (WBEs) of 13 common insects from Delhi, namely Musca domestica (house fly); Sitophilus oryzae (rice weevil); Callosobrochous maculatus (pulse beetle); Anopheles stephensi, Culex quinquefasciatus and Aedes aegypti (mosquitoes); Blattella germanica Periplaneta americana (cockroaches: male, female nymph); Spodoptera litura Heliothis armigera (moths), were prepared to evaluate their allergenic significance in patients with allergic bronchial asthma. Intradermal (ID) tests...
A 70-year-old woman presented with progressive skin lesions on the face, limbs and trunk in absence of systemic illness. Three months earlier, she had been prescribed six prophylactic nitrofurantoin for recurrent urinary tract infections, treated trimethoprim. Positive immunology histological inflammatory changes a biopsy were consistent diagnosis sub-acute cutaneous lupus erythematosus. Following treatment topical steroids, regressed, but alopecia followed required hydroxychloroquine. One...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a major omega-3-polyunsaturated fatty (ω-3-PUFAs), in development experimental choroidal neovascularization (CNV) rodents.Experimental second generation Long Evans rats fed with diets varying ω-3-PUFA content designed produce significantly different retinal DHA levels were used our studies. A transgenic mouse model (fat-1) engineered over-produce was also studied. CNV induced by rupture Bruch's membrane using...
The control of gene expression at certain times during the mitotic cell division cycle is a common feature in eukaryotes. In fission yeast, least five waves have been described, with one transcribed M–G1 interval under PBF transcription factor complex. consists three factors, two forkhead-like proteins Sep1p and Fkh2p, MADS box-like protein Mbx1p, binds to PCB motifs found promoters. Mbx1p direct polo-like kinase Plo1p Cdc14p-like phosphatase Clp1p (Flp1p). Here, we show that yeast also...
Summary The whole body extracts (WBEs) of female and male cockroaches ( Periplaneta americana; Pa ) were prepared separately to study the specific and/or shared allergenic antigenic components in two sexes. These skin‐tested on 170 respiratory allergy patients 52 (30–6%) them elicited a markedly positive cutaneous reaction (2+ 4+) any one or both WBEs. Of these patients, 32 (61·5%) produced 2+ 4+ response only one, remaining 20 (38·5%) extracts. In RASTs dose‐related inhibition. Using rabbit...
Abstract Occupational exposure of dry bleach factory workers to proteolytic enzymes poses a potential health hazard susceptible workers. A sensitive immunochemical technique has been developed for quantitating Esperase® by sampling airborne particles on fiberglass filter sheet followed elution and assay enzyme in two-site immunoradiometric assay. By this method, 0.05 0.1 ng (activity 50 KNPU/g) can be quantitated. With sensitivity, as little 2 4 ng/m3 Esperase could detected personal...
Human seminal plasma allergy (HSPA) in women has been documented the West. We describe here first case of HSPA reported India. An 18-year-old married woman presented with a 2-year history episodic wheezing dyspnea. She had always local postcoital symptoms since her intercourse. Systemic developed subsequently. Despite more than 2 years unprotected coitus, patient not conceived. The in-tradermal tests antigen prepared from husband's semen and healthy volunteer were markedly positive patient....
The effect of mineralocorticoid antagonist RU 26752 on the development and maintenance hypertension produced by long-term administration agonist aldosterone has been investigated. Uninephrectomized, saline-drinking male Sprague-Dawley rats were subcutaneously implanted with either placebo (control) pellets or containing 100 micrograms aldosterone, 50 mg 26752, plus 26752. Aldosterone treatment resulted in an increase blood pressure to 165 +/- 5 mmHg over control value 105 2 within 3 wk...
