glutamic acid/fatigue

The mechanical reliability of calcium phosphate cements has restricted their clinical application in load-bearing locations. Although their mechanical strength can be improved using a variety of strategies, their fatigue properties are still unclear, especially after degradation. The evolutions of

OBJECTIVE Fatigue can be caused by a deficiency of nutrition or immune function. The goal of this study was to identify the effects of porcine placenta extract (PPE) and its constituents, amino acids (glutamic acid, glycine, arginine, and proline), on protein-energy malnutrition (PEM)-induced

Placenta extracts are used for their health benefits; however, the anti-fatigue effects of placenta have not been elucidated. Thus, we investigated the anti-fatigue effects of porcine placenta extract (PE) and the amino acids present in the PE (glycine, Gly; proline, Pro; glutamic acid, GA; and

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS/ME) is a debilitating fatigue illness that has an unknown etiology. We studied 20 chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) patients, who complied with the Oxford and American CDC definitions, and 45 non-CFS subjects. Participants completed questionnaires, were clinically

BACKGROUND A new dietary supplement, Fatigue Reviva™, has been recently developed to address issues related to amino acid depletion following illness or in conditions of sub-health where altered amino acid homeostasis has been associated with fatigue. Complex formulations of amino acids present

Fatigue of night duty workers in different divisions of a newspaper office was investigated by physiological methods such as the Blinker, Flicker and grip methods. The relationship between fatigue and hematological parameters such as hemoglobin (Hb), the hematocrit (Ht), serum-free amino acid

BACKGROUND Sea cucumber (Stichopus japonicus) is a well-known nutritious and luxurious seafood in Asia which has attracted increasing attention because of its nutrition and bioactivities in recent years. In this study, the anti-fatigue activity of sea cucumber peptides (SCP) prepared from S.

Hydrochloride of beta-phenylglutamic acid (RGPU-135, glutarone, neuroglutamine) administered in dosis 13 mg/kg and 26 mg/kg doses increases exercise performance of outbred mice in repeated forced dynamic load test, reduces the intensity of fatigue, and accelerates adaptation to loading. In contrast,

BACKGROUND The stiff person syndrome (SPS) is a rare disorder characterized by muscular rigidity and stiffness. METHODS We describe an SPS patient presenting with longstanding fatigue and electrophysiological evidence of presynaptic neuromuscular transmission defect, who responded to administration

OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of Chinese herbal compound on variance of neurotransmitters in rat telencephalon and to further discuss the mechanism underlying Chinese herbal compound in improving exercise capacity and promoting recovery from exercise-induced fatigue. METHODS 64 rats (8 week old)

An eight-year-old girl was admitted for prolonged fever and general fatigue. Bilateral reddened and swollen tonsils covered with white fur and increased numbers of atypical lymphocytes in blood led to a diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis (IM) due to primary Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection,

We report a case of type 1 diabetes onset and recurrence of Graves' disease during pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN)-alpha plus ribavirin treatment for chronic hepatitis C. The patient was a 55-year-old woman diagnosed with chronic hepatitis at age 46 years. She was treated for Graves' disease at 50

Autoimmune polyglandular syndrome by definition consists of two or more endocrinological insufficiencies or two organ specific autoimmune diseases. There are no stringent criteria for endocrinological evaluation of patients with one endocrine insufficiency. However, detailed endocrinological

BACKGROUND Patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and impaired performance status (PS >or= 2) have limited life expectancies and decreased tolerance for drug-induced toxicities. Current treatment guidelines indicate that PS 2 patients benefit from systemic therapy. Further
