More NW subjects achieved a clinically significant weight loss of >= 5% body weight (45% vs. 15%, p = 0.038). No adverse events occurred, and the majority (70%) of subjects in the NW arm met the feasibility criteria. Conclusions: This clinical trial demonstrated that NW is not only ...
Inclusion criteria were a report of surgical procedure performed and at least 1 outcome of interest resulting from the studied surgery was reported: comorbidities, mortality, complications, reoperations, or weight loss. Of the 25,060 initially identified articles, 24,023 studies met the exclusion ...
The associations remained significant, such that physical activity continued to be significantly associated with Aβ-related PACC decline (β, 0.03; 95% CI, 0.02-0.05; P < .001) and gray matter volume loss (β, 434.70; 95% CI, 148.30-721.10; P = .004). Interestingly, in these...
To generalize the utility of the two factors and to examine antigen-specific in vitro functions of regenerated mature CD8αβ+SP T-cells, we induced three iPSC clones derived from cytotoxic T-cell (CTL) clones with known antigen-specificity (T-iPSCs) for differentiation into mature T-cells. ...
There were no other statistically significant differences in their demographics and clinical characteristics. Controls (n = 75) were 45.6 ± 10.6 years of age, with BMI of 26.1 ± 3. 8 kg/m2, gait speed of 1.21 ± 0.80 m/s, and peak knee adduction moment of 2.48 ± 0.80 %BW*Ht. ...
Exclusion criteria included patients with ankle trauma, instability, prior ankle surgery, or radiographic evidence of ankle osteoarthrosis. The final cohort consisted of 82 ankles. The LTS was measured digitally for each subject on weight-bearing lateral ankle radiographs by 3 observers. The mean LTS...
the wound dimensions were 5 cm in length and 4 cm in width. Clinical signs of infections were the presence of a moderate amount of exudate, local hyperthermy, malodor, slough, and pain. Moreover, the wound edges were macera...

(p = 0.141 and 0.329). In general, our model had slightly higher patient-level sensitivity and NPV but without significant differences in the entire group, SAH and non-SAH subgroups, except for the patient-level sensitivity in the whole group for radiologists (significantly higher,p =...
Acylcarnitines have important functions in mitochondrial energetics and β-oxidation, and have been implicated to play a significant role in metabolic functions of the brain. This retrospective study examined whether plasma acylcarnitine profiles can help biochemically distinguish the three phenotypic subtypes...
