We investigated health disparities among lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) adults aged 50 years older.We analyzed data from the 2003-2010 Washington State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (n = 96 992) on outcomes, chronic conditions, access to care, behaviors, screening by gender sexual orientation with adjusted logistic regressions.LGB older had higher risk of disability, poor mental health, smoking, excessive drinking than did heterosexuals. Lesbians women cardiovascular disease...
Purpose: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people are a health disparate population as identified in Healthy People 2020. Yet, there has been limited attention to how LGBT older adults maintain successful aging despite the adversity they face. Utilizing Resilience Framework, this study investigates relationship between physical mental health-related quality of life (QOL) covariates by age group. Design Methods: A cross-sectional survey aged 50 (N = 2,560) was conducted Caring...
A silk nanofiber-networked bio-triboelectric generator (Silk Bio-TEG) is developed using an eco-friendly and sustainable biomaterial with strong hydrogen bonding between peptide blocks. The electrospun Silk Bio-TEG shows highly durable reliable energy harvesting performances due to its notably high surface-to-volume ratio, mechanically super-strong fibers, fracture tolerant behavior of nanofiber-networks. As a service our authors readers, this journal provides supporting information supplied...
We investigated the association of health-related quality life (HRQOL) with sexual orientation among lesbians and bisexual women compared predictors HRQOL between 2 groups.We used multivariate logistic regression to analyze Washington State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System population-based data (2003 2007) in a sample 1496 examined determinants women.For women, frequent mental distress poor general health were associated poverty lack exercise; was obesity distress. Bisexual showed...
We used population-based data to comprehensively examine disability among lesbian, gay, and bisexual adults.We estimated prevalence of its covariates compared by sexual orientation utilizing from the Washington State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (n = 82,531) collected in 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009. multivariate logistic regression relationship between orientation, after we controlled for disability.Findings indicated that is higher adults with their heterosexual counterparts;...
Abstract Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is among the most lethal of human malignancies. Most GBM tumors are refractory to cytotoxic therapies. Glioma stem cells (GSCs) significantly contribute progression and post-treatment tumor relapse, therefore serving as a key therapeutic target; however, GSCs resistant conventional radiation therapy. Proton therapy one newer cancer treatment modalities its effects on function remain unclear. Here, by utilizing patient-derived GSCs, we show that proton...
Aberrant vascularization is a hallmark of cancer progression and treatment resistance. Here, we have shown that endothelial cell (EC) plasticity drives aberrant chemoresistance in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). By utilizing human patient specimens, as well allograft genetic murine GBM models, revealed robust allows acquisition fibroblast transformation (also known mesenchymal transition [Endo-MT]), which characterized by EC expression markers, determined prominent population GBM-associated...
Loneliness is a key health risk for older adults. Utilizing the loneliness model, we examine relationship between living arrangement and among lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) adults, taking into consideration potential correlates including social resources personal constraints.We use data from national survey of LGB adults aged 50 (N = 2,444). Types include with partner or spouse, alone, someone other than spouse.Compared both those alone others reported higher degrees loneliness, even after...
Semiconducting ink based on 2D single-crystal flakes with dangling-bond-free surfaces enables the implementation of high-performance devices form-free substrates by cost-effective and scalable printing processes. However, lack solution-processed p-type semiconducting inks high mobility is an obstacle to development complementary integrated circuits. Here, a versatile strategy doping Br2 reported enhance hole orders magnitude for transistors layered materials. -doped WSe2 show field-effect...
We investigated whether elevated risks of health disparities exist in Hispanic lesbians and bisexual women aged 18 years older compared with non-Hispanic White heterosexual women.We analyzed population-based data from the Washington State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (2003-2009) using adjusted logistic regressions.Hispanic women, were at risk for smoking, asthma, disability. also showed higher odds arthritis, acute drinking, poor general health, frequent mental distress women....
Health disparities exist among sexual minority older adults. Yet, health and aging surveys rarely include orientation measures when they do, often exclude adults from being asked about orientation. This is the first population-based study to assess item nonresponse by age change over time. We compare response rates examine time trends in patterns using adjusted logistic regressions. Among aged 65 older, rate on lower than income. While show higher younger adults, have significantly decreased...
Abstract Wogonin is a plant monoflavonoid which has been reported to inhibit cell growth and/or induce apoptosis in various tumors. Herein, we investigated the vitro and vivo anticancer effects associated mechanisms of wogonin human breast cancer. Effects were examined estrogen receptor (ER)‐positive ‐negative cancer cells culture for proliferation, cycle progression, apoptosis. The effect oral was on tumor xenograft athymic nude mice. molecular changes with biological analyzed by...
The purpose of this study was to determine the levels trace metals in blood general Korean population. A total 258 healthy individuals, according their regular medical check-ups, (119 males and 139 females, age ranging from 12 78 years old) were enrolled December 2014 2016. Levels 10 elements determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). geometric mean (GM) for lead, arsenic, cesium, mercury, aluminum, cadmium, copper, manganese, selenium, zinc 15.97 μg/L, 7.19 2.39...
Dianthus koreanus sp. nov., from Gyeongsangbuk-do, Republic of Korea, is described and illustrated. It a chasmophyte growing on the rocks seashore in eastern coast Korea. The new species similar to D. chinensis by its vegetative floral morphology. Differential characters refer leaves (oblanceolate oblong greenish-gray coriaceous), bracts (3 pairs, each bract being elliptic obovate with apex acute). conservation status was assessed according IUCN Red List criteria.
Nanomedicine has long pursued the goal of targeted delivery to specific organs and cell types but yet achieve this with vast majority targets. One rare example success in pursuit been 25+ years studies targeting lung endothelium using nanoparticles conjugated antibodies against endothelial surface molecules. However, here we show that such "endothelial-targeted" nanocarriers also effectively target lungs' numerous marginated neutrophils, which reside pulmonary capillaries patrol for...
