Investigators utilized a parallel intervention of two separate dietary lentil doses versus control (no lentils) treatments for eight weeks in adults with elevated waist circumference. Enrolled participants were randomized to LOW (300 g lentils/week), HIGH (600 g lentils/week), or CONTROL (0 g
Background Sleep disturbances are one of the most common non-motor symptoms in PD, with an estimated prevalence as high as 40-90%. Sleep disturbances (particularly sleep duration, sleep fragmentation, Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep behaviour disorder and sleep-disordered breathing) have been
Introduction High BMI and particularly fat mass index are associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease and other cardiovascular conditions, but the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Endothelial dysfunction precedes atherosclerosis and represents an important link between
Post-Dural puncture headache (PDPH) is a well-known common devastating complication of subarachnoid block. Despite the decreasing incidences of PDPH over the last years due to the advancement in the design and smaller size of spinal needles, PDPH remains to be a common complication in post-partum
A randomized clinical trial was conducted in the Institute of Translational Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics, Department of Molecular Biology in Medicine, Health Sciences Center, at the University of Guadalajara, Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, from February of 2018 to February of 2019. All
Asthma is the most common chronic condition in Olympic athletes. Asthma is defined as a chronic inflammation in the airways associated with bronchial hyper responsiveness (BHR). It is suggested that there are two phenotypes of asthma among athletes; the classic asthma with early childhood onset and
Creatine and caffeine are among the most popular ergogenic aids used by exercising individuals. Creatine supplementation during resistance training has been shown to increase muscle mass and muscle performance (i.e. strength, endurance), possibly by influencing high-energy phosphate metabolism,
INTRODUCTION Hypertension is common with a prevalence of approximately one third of the adult Swedish population and similar figures reported world wide. It is associated to cardiac structural- and functional changes as well as vascular dysfunction which all can be delayed or reversed by appropriate
Background:
Lung development and growth is a complexly orchestrated process starting prenatally in the first embryonic weeks, and ending, with the last important stages of alveolarization from the 24th week onwards. By the time of birth, around one third of the total amount of alveoli has developed,
Introduction Measurement of fractional nitric oxide (NO) concentration in exhaled breath (FeNO) has been shown to be a non-invasive, quantitative biomarker related to airway inflammation. Although there is inadequate evidence to support the use of FENO to aid the diagnosis of asthma, recent studies
Introduction Diesel and its products represent one of the most common pollutants affecting people living in urban and rural areas of the world. The majority of patients attending emergency departments are likely to have been subjected to chronic exposure to diesel engine exhaust fumes particularly
INTRODUCTION Background Mechanical ventilation (MV) is one of the most important risk factors for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in the preterm infant, due to the early pulmonary inflammation from volume- and baro-trauma and the secondary 1. Despite this, around 80% of infants
The aim of this research is to determine the metabolic responses to a mixed-meal tolerance test following a bout of HIIT and MICT in persons with chronic paraplegia. The hypothesis is that HIIT and MICT will be more effective at reducing the total triglyceride responses compared to a resting control
Background:
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common lethal inherited disease in North European populations, affecting approximately 1:2500 live births. It is a multisystem disorder with respiratory morbidity and mortality being the leading cause of death. Lung disease in CF is characterized by
Dark chocolate is rich in flavonoids, bioactive micronutrients that increase the bioavailability of nitric oxide as well as decrease the rate in which nitric oxide is removed from the body. Through increasing the bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO) to bodily tissues, the tissues are better able to
