“Ex-smokers” were identified as those who had stopped smoking >1 year before the 1968-1969 examination. Anthropometric measurements in 1968-1969; Body height and body weight were measured with the subjects wearing only briefs. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated by dividing body weight in kg[r]

among natural weight loss supplements. Theoretically, they may promote weight loss by interfering with the breakdown of complex carbohydrates thereby reducing, or at least slowing, the digestive availability of carbo-hydrate-derived calories and/or by providing resistant starches to the lower gastro[r]

1. INTRODUCTION Hb J-Meerut results from a C ->A mutation (GCG->GAG) at codon 120 of the α1 or α2 globin gene, changing the alanine to glutamic acid at residue 120 of the α chain [1,2,3]. This variant was first reported in two sisters from Meerut, Utlar Pradesh, India [1][r]

relatively similar pattern to that found in the untreated control cells. The pairwise comparison analysis demonstrated four significantly up-regulated (COBRA1, ITGB4, STAU2, and HMGN3) genes and one down-regulated (ANK3) gene. All these genes exert their function on transcriptional and translational[r]

As an example we presented the finding that maternal use of loratadine in early pregnancy was associated with a roughly doubled risk for infant hypospadias. We concluded: “The finding can still be random, but causality cannot be dismissed, even though the mechanism of action is not understood[r]
