In addition, the current clinical, serum biochemical and virological statuses of these patients were evaluated to determine the long‐term effects of interferon therapy. All patients had evidence of hepatitis C virus infection, with hepatitis C viral RNA, antibody to hepatitis C virus or both ...
Self-efficacy and self-management are fundamental factors for successful treatment of type 2 diabetes, but long-term studies are rare. The aim of the present study is to investigate whether the effects achieved in the context of a lifestyle intervention based on the transtheoretical model can be ...
bFollow-up period from the time point of the last childhood survey. cIndividuals who took medications were excluded. Gender difference within race: *p < 0·05; **p < 0·01. causal relation patterns in childhood influence adult MetS and T2DM, and to what extent obesity...
Indeed, engaging in physical activity is associated with reduced risks of cholecystectomy and gallstone development, suggesting that interventions aimed at promoting physical activity could be particularly effective9. However, the specific effects of physical activity in relation to long-term weight patterns...
Long-term response to higher doses of interferon (IFN)alfa-2b treatment of patients with chronic hepatitis C: A randomized multicenter trial. Hepatology 1993; 18: 106.Lindsay, KL, Davis, GL, Schiff, ER (1993) Long-term response to higher doses of interferon alfa 2b treatment of patients ...
The direction and magnitude of the effect depend on the treatment and differ among groups of retention types (Soler et al. 2015). Biodiversity can be analyzed from different perspectives, e.g., from the overall richness or considering the original biodiversity that was supported by primary ...
decreased P concentration inC. grandisleaves. No significant differences were found in root and leaf B concentration and leaf P concentration between the two species at each given B treatment except that B concentration was higher in B-toxicC. sinensisleaves than in B-toxic C.grandisones (Figure...
Side effects of treatment occurred in 5 patients on steroids and 10 on enteral nutrition (not significant). Eight enterally fed patients were prematurely withdrawn from the trial. Mortality during treatment was similar in both groups (9 of 36 vs. 11 of 35, intention‐to‐treat) but occurred ...
this treatment was associated with serious adverse events related to vector-mediated insertional mutagenesis in all of the patients18. To minimize mutagenic side effects, subsequent phase I/II clinical trials have been based on the use of a self-inactivating lentiviral vector expressing WASp under the...
The human bronchial epithelium is the first line of defense against atmospheric particles, pollutants, and respiratory pathogens such as the novel SARS-CoV-2. The epithelial cells form a tight barrier and secrete proteins that are major components of the
