Abstract STUDY QUESTION Does acupuncture improve insulin sensitivity more effectively than metformin or sham in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and resistance (IR)? SUMMARY ANSWER Among PCOS IR, was not effective improving sensitivity. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Uncontrolled trials have shown that improved fewer side effects compared IR. However, data from randomized between are lacking. DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION This a three-armed controlled trial enrolling total of 342 IR three...
To determine the correlations between dietary and blood inflammation indices in elderly Americans their effects on cognitive function.This research extracted data from 2011-2014 National Health Nutrition Examination Survey for 2,479 patients who were ≥60 years old. Cognitive function was assessed as a composite score (Z-score) calculated results of Consortium to Establish Registry Alzheimer's Disease Word Learning Delayed Recall tests, Animal Fluency test, Digit Symbol Substitution Test. We...
The mechanical property of extracellular matrix and cell-supporting substrates is known to modulate neuronal growth, differentiation, extension branching. Here we show that substrate stiffness an important microenvironmental cue, which mouse hippocampal neurons respond integrate into synapse formation transmission in cultured network. Hippocampal were on polydimethylsiloxane fabricated have similar surface properties but a 10-fold difference Young's modulus. Voltage-gated Ca2+ channel...
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are crucial regulators in many plant biological processes. However, it remains unknown whether lncRNAs can respond to nitrate or function regulation. We detected 695 lncRNAs, 480 known and 215 novel, Arabidopsis seedling roots; six showed altered expression response treatment, among which T5120 the highest induction. Overexpression of promoted nitrate, enhanced assimilation improved biomass root development. Biochemical molecular analyses revealed that NLP7, a...
Background Hypertension is a significant chronic disease that has been linked with bone mineral density (BMD) in various studies. However, the conclusions are contradictory. The purpose of our study was to identify postmenopausal females and males older than 50 years hypertension. Methods This cross-sectional 4,306 participants from 2005–2010 US National Health Nutrition Examination Survey explored relationship between BMD Participants who had mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥140 mmHg, or...
Periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts play an important role in preserving periodontal homeostasis and transmitting mechanical signals to alveolar bone. Connexin 43 (Cx43), a gap junction protein, is essential for bone regulates remodeling. However, the function of Cx43 human PDL fibroblast-regulated remodeling has not yet been elucidated. In this study, were exposed cyclic tension with maximum 5% elongation different durations. We then examined expression signaling molecules related...
Background: Anthracycline has been shown to degrade titin that plays a role in myocardial twisting and untwisting. This study aimed test the hypothesis left ventricular (LV) untwisting motion may be altered children after anthracycline therapy. Methods: Thirty-six childhood leukemia survivors aged 15.6 ± 5.5 years 20 healthy controls 16.8 7.7 (P = 0.54) were studied. LV was determined using speckle tracking imaging, whereas ejection fraction systolic diastolic mitral annular velocities...
Abstract We have previously shown that Arabidopsis thaliana Prohibitin 3 (PHB3) controls auxin-stimulated lateral root (LR) formation; however, the underlying molecular mechanism is unknown. Here, we demonstrate PHB3 regulates development mainly through influencing primordia (LRP) initiation, via affecting nitric oxide (NO) accumulation. The reduced LRP in phb3 mutant was largely rescued by treatment with a NO donor. decreased accumulation caused lower expression of GATA TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR...
Abstract Aims The association between serum albumin and depressive symptoms has been unclear in previous epidemiological studies. We explored whether is associated with based on the National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data. Methods This cross-sectional study included 13,681 participants aged ≥ 20 years from NHANES performed during 2005–2018, which produced nationally representative database. Depressive were assessed using Patient Questionnaire-9. Serum concentration was...
Background Following successful canalith repositioning procedures (CRPs), some patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) may experience residual symptoms. There is currently no consensus on whether these symptoms are related to the disease duration. Objective To examine impact of BPPV duration persistence following CRP. Methods A total 102 idiopathic were enrolled and categorized into short-course long-course groups based disease. The course in group was less than or equal 7...
Background Patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) may be at increased risk for hypertension.
Melittin is a natural antimicrobial peptide isolated from bee venom, and the non-specific cytotoxicity hemolytic activity severely limit its clinical application. Glycosylation of proteins very common in physiological biochemical processes can modulate interaction with their target. In this study, eight glycosyl groups were used to modify arginine melittin at sites 22 and/or 24, single double N-glycosylated peptides designed synthesized. Among acquired 24 glycopeptides, MLT-1c, MLT-3c,...
Facing the increasing demand for batteries worldwide, recycling waste lithium has become one of important ways to address problem. However, this process generates a large amount wastewater which contains high concentration heavy metals and acids. Deploying battery would cause severe environmental hazards, pose risks human health, also be resources. In paper, combined diffusion dialysis (DD) electrodialysis (ED) is proposed separate, recover, utilize Ni2+ H2SO4 in wastewater. DD process, acid...
Background Altered septal curvature and left ventricular (LV) geometry secondary to right (RV) dilation render two-dimensional assessment of LV mechanics difficult in repaired tetralogy Fallot (TOF) patients. The novel three-dimensional (3D) speckle tracking echocardiography enables comprehensive evaluation true 3D mechanics. Methods Results Seventy-six patients aged 23.6±8.3 years, 55 with isolated repair (group I) 21 subsequent pulmonary valve replacement II), 34 healthy controls were...
A high-performance, low-cost demodulation system is essential for fiber-optic sensor-based measurement applications. This paper presents a FBG sensors based on long-period fiber grating (LPG) driven by artificial intelligence techniques. The LPG applied as an edge filter to convert the spectrum drift of sensor into transmitted intensity variation, which subsequently fed proposed network provide high-precision wavelength interrogation. consists generative adversarial (GAN) data augmentation...
