report was similar to a similar protocol used in 1995 by the same principal investigator. [13] Of the 20 patients who were given interferon alfa-2b, 5MU/day subcutaneously, 60% cleared virus on therapy and 20% had SVR. Of those that cleared virus, 33% remained non-viremic after liver transplantation[r]

We define hyperuricemia the uric acid blood level over 8 mg/dl (4.76 µmol/l).[1] The impact of hyperuricemia is wide felt because it may cause pathologic consequences in several organs, such as kidney, brain, subcutaneous tissue, joints.

Moreover, it should also be advantageous that the compounds of Rice-fluid failed to affect the survival of S. aureus, S. epidermidis, and P. aeruginosa, demonstrating that[r]

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]

In addition, human hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cells were studied without comparing against normal hepatocytes because of the way HepG2 cells met[r]

Our data show that hSGLT3, but not GLTU4, expression was enhanced in skeletal muscle after 16 weeks of resistance training. Thi[r]

Parametric tests were used in the case of normal distribution and non-parametric tests for non-normal distributions (χ2 or Fischer’s exact test). Logistic regression analyses were performed to compute odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). For continuous variables, a linear regression[r]

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]
