Abstract Background The incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a chronic lung disease of newborns, has been paradoxically rising despite medical advances. Histone... -
Retinoid acid-induced microRNA-31-5p suppresses myogenic proliferation and di...
Abstract Background We previously reported that Wnt5a/CaMKIIδ (calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II delta) pathway was involved in the embryonic tongue deformity... -
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance demonstration of the spectrum of morphologi...
Abstract Background Although it is known that Anderson-Fabry Disease (AFD) can mimic the morphologic manifestations of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) on echocardiography,... -
Carotid and femoral Doppler do not allow the assessment of passive leg raisin...
Abstract Background The hemodynamic effects of the passive leg raising (PLR) test must be assessed through a direct measurement of cardiac index (CI). We tested whether changes... -
High reflectivity air-bridge subwavelength grating reflector and Fabry-Perot ...
We present a novel air-bridge subwavelength grating reflector with very high reflectivity be used as a top mirror in a VCSEL structure. We explain the design method, model the... -
A systemic approach to screening high-throughput RT-qPCR data for a suitable ...
Abstract Background The consensus on how to choose a reference gene for serum or plasma miRNA expression qPCR studies has not been reached and none of the potential candidates... -
C-reactive protein mediates the association between leisure-time physical act...
Abstract Background Although previous studies have reported the benefits of physical activity (PA) to lung function in middle-aged and older adults, the biological mechanisms... -
Prospective associations of meat consumption during childhood with measures o...
Abstract Background Higher meat and protein intakes have been associated with increased body weight in adults, but studies evaluating body composition are scarce. Furthermore,... -
Newborn hearing screening protocol in tuscany region
Abstract Background Newborn hearing screening has to be considered the first step of a program for the identification, diagnosis, treatment and habilitation/rehabilitation of... -

Association of changes in commute mode with body mass index and visceral adip...
Abstract Background Prospective data are sparse for active commuting to work and body weight in Asia. We assessed the association of 5-year changes in commuting mode with body... -
A pilot study of a pharmacist-led prescribing program for final-year medical ...
Abstract Background Junior doctors undertake a significant amount of prescribing; however, they are not well prepared for this, and report they would like more training in their... -

Overexpression of activated CaMKII in the CA1 hippocampus impairs context dis...
Abstract Calcium/Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) plays a key role in the molecular mechanism of memory formation. CaMKII is known to be activated specifically in... -
Metabolomics analysis of Pseudomonas chlororaphis JK12 algicidal activity und...
Abstract Utilization of algicidal bacteria as a biological agent have been receiving significant interest for controlling harmful algal blooms. While various algicidal bacterial... -
A complete linkage disequilibrium in a haplotype of three SNPs in Fat Mass an...
Abstract Background The underlying mechanism of the effect of FTO genotype on body mass index (BMI) and body composition is unknown. The objective of the study was to... -
Understanding coupling dynamics of public transportation networks
Abstract Subway and bus networks work as an integrated multiplex transportation system and play an indispensable role in modern big cities. Even though a variety of works have... -
Measurement of the spectrally-resolved absolute phase difference between orth...
On the basis of white-light interferometry with spectrally integrated detection and Fourier transform (FT) analysis, we demonstrate a novel technique for measuring the...
