Functional tests evaluate a person’s ability to perform activities of daily living, such as walking, climbing stairs, and getting up from a chair [9]. In limited resource settings, where DXA or BIA are not available, the Asian Working Group of Sarcopenia (AWGS) consensus updated in 2019 ...
regression analyses into a 'pyramid of needs' mimicking Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (Maslow, 1948) to emphasise that these are key areas of everyday life and function that people with threatened health need in order to continue to view life as worth living (World Health Organisation, 2001)....
aeruginosa phycospheres. Each sample was fil- tered through a 3-μm (47 mm, Macherey-Nagel, Germany) pore size polytetrafluoroethylene filter paper and washed twice to remove the free-living bacteria. Metagenomic DNA was extracted from microor- ganisms in the water using a FastDNA Spin...
Studies of natural disturbances that affect Mexican ecosystems mainly focus on fires and hurricanes (Online resource 2). Fulé and Covington (1997,1999) examined fire regimes in pine–oak forests in northern Mexico. They found that frequent, low-intensity fires were most common, burning forest unde...
Living brittlestar beds are subject to little preda- tion, and injury levels are low. The even lower injury levels in fossil brittlestar beds indicate that some injury information is lost in the process of fossiliza- tion and/or that predation levels were lower in the ancient brittlestar ...
Live and dead cells were analysed with BD Accuri C6 flow cytometer (BD, Oxford, UK), FL3 vs FSC which detects PI fluorescence, where PI binds to nuclear degradation from dead cells. Acridine orange Cells were seeded in 6-well plates; cells were then treated with CAP as described above ...
