The Trp64Arg polymorphism in β3 adrenergic receptor (ADRB3) gene is associate...
Abstract Background Recently, some studies claim that adipokines may modulate plasma lipids. More interestingly, the ADRB3 Trp64Arg polymorphism may regulate adipokines and play... -
Interventions in education to prevent STEM pipeline leakage
The so-called leaking STEM pipeline (dropout in STEM education) has been the subject of many studies. The large interest of scholars in plausible causes of this leakage has... -
Pressure based MRI-compatible muscle fascicle length and joint angle estimation
Abstract Background Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) provides critical information about the neurophysiology of the central nervous systems (CNS), posing clinical... -
Quantitative benefit-risk assessment of methylprednisolone in multiple sclero...
Abstract Background High-dose short-term methylprednisolone is the recommended treatment in the management of multiple sclerosis relapses, although it has been suggested that...
