Abstract:

Obesity, low level of physical activity and dysfunctional movement patterns presents one of the leading health issues that can contribute to increased risk for developing not only metabolic and cardiovascular disease, but also musculoskeletal problems. The aim of this paper is to summarize literature and evidence about relationship between functional movement (FM) patterns, physical activity (PA) level and weight status in average adolescent population. In addition, this paper summarized current evidence about relations between maturation effects and functional movement among athletic adolesce

Abstract:

There is sufficient evidence showing that greater sleep quality improves weight loss outcomes achieved through dietary modifications; however, the effects of dietary modifications such as caloric restriction on sleep outcomes is less established. Caloric restriction is a commonly recommended weight-loss method, yet it may result in short-term weight loss and subsequent weight regain, known as “weight cycling”, which has recently been shown to be associated with both poor sleep and worse cardiovascular health. The purpose of this brief narrative review was to summarize the evidence from recent

Perceived availability and usage of fast food outlets, and fast food consumption, were considered as potential mediators and age, gender, socioeconomic status, and urban region as potential moderators. Spatial access to fast food outlets was not significantly related to weigh

Toxin retention is felt to be a major contributor to the development of uremia in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Uremic retention compounds are classically divided into 3 categories: small solutes, middle molecules, and protein-bound toxins. Compounds comprising the first category, for which the upper molecular weight limit is generally considered to be 500 Da, possess a high degree of water solubility and minimal or absent protein binding. The second category of middle molecules has largely evolved now to be synonymous with peptides and prote

Effective treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is primarily determined by adherence to the selected intervention.

Weight reduction is usually an adjunct therapy but may be used as a secondary treatment in mild-to-moderate OSA when mechanical treatments cannot be tolerated. To enhance the uptake and adherence to treatment, clinicians may assess patient's personality profiles and psychological readiness. T

This paper addresses the problem of adverse pregnancy outcome in relation to periodontal disease. There is compelling evidence that a link exists between pre-term low birth weight (PLBW) and periodontitis. Although 25% to 50% of PLBW deliveries occur without any known aetiology, there is increasing evidence that infection may play a significant role in pre-term delivery. A model explaining the plausible relationship is proposed based upon the concept of infection leading to a cascade of inflammatory reactions associated with pre-term labour and periodontal disease.

An approach for estimating attribute weight is proposed, which is addressed to the problem inverse to the aggregation assessment based on a hierarchy of attributes. Evidential reasoning framework is employed since the assessment on some basic attributes may be uncertain and incomplete. As a by-product, a simple formula for evidence combination for our special case is obtained. The weights are estimated based on the preference given by the decision-maker, and represented as intervals. The more abundant preference the decision-maker shows, the clearer the relation among the basic attributes.

The human brain consumes a disproportionate amount of the body’s overall metabolic resources, and evidence suggests that brain and body may compete for substrate during development. Using perfusion MRI from a large cross-sectional cohort, we examined developmental changes of MRI-derived estimates of brain metabolism, in relation to weight change. Nonlinear models demonstrated that, in childhood, changes in body weight were inversely related to developmental age-related changes in brain metabolism. This inverse relationship persisted through early adolescence, after which body and brain metabol

Abstract:

Cross-document relation extraction (CodRE) aims to predict the semantic relationships between target entities located in different documents, a critical capability for comprehensive knowledge graph construction and multi-source intelligence analysis. Existing approaches primarily rely on bridge entities to capture interdependencies between target entities across documents. However, these models face two potential limitations: they employ entity-centered context filters that overlook relation-specific information, and they fail to account for varying semantic distances between document paths.

Abstract The Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) has made normative decisions as to the probative value of different categories of evidence and the manner in which the evidentiary record should be assessed. Defying expectations that the ECCC’s inquisitorial model would render it quite unique in relation to matters of evidence and proof, this article argues that many of the key epistemological debates witnessed before other international criminal tribunals have also seeped into the practice of the ECCC. Indeed, an analysis of its practice shows that there are several commona

Abstract:

Although the C-statistic is widely used for evaluating the performance of diagnostic tests, its limitations for evaluating the predictive performance of biomarker panels have been widely discussed. The increment in C obtained by adding a new biomarker to a predictive model has no direct interpretation, and the relevance of the C-statistic to risk stratification is not obvious. This paper proposes that the C-statistic should be replaced by the expected information for discriminating between cases and non-cases (expected weight of evidence, denoted as Λ), and that the strength of evidence favour

This study investigated the ability to degrade chicken feathers by bacteria isolated from flamingo feathers in Lake Nakuru which can be applied in the degradation of poultry and abattoir wastes for the production of protein supplement for animal feed formulations. Proteolytic activity of the isolates was screened on casein agar and their efficiency ranged from 3 to 27 mm. Two bacteria isolates; LNC06 later identified as Bacillus agaradhaerens by 16S rDNA sequencing and LNN03 which were found to have high potential in feather degradation.

Abstract:

The epidemiological data that directly examine whole grain v. refined grain intake in relation to weight gain are sparse. However, recently reported studies offer insight into the potential role that whole grains may play in body-weight regulation due to the effects that the components of whole grains have on hormonal factors, satiety and satiation. In both clinical trials and observational studies the intake of whole-grain foods was inversely associated with plasma biomarkers of obesity, including insulin, C-peptide and leptin concentrations. Whole-grain foods tend to have low glycaemic index
