Ageing is the main risk factor for most neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer disease (AD) and Parkinson disease (PD). Tissues composed primarily of postmitotic cells, such as the brain, are especially sensitive to the effects of ageing. Hallmarks of ageing — genomic instability, telomere...

“It is difficult to exaggerate the potential importance of the hypothesis that BMAA is a causal factor in the incidence of three devastating neurodegenerative diseases that affect millions of people worldwide. As the hypothesis begins to enter the public domain through popular science-oriented ...
The importance of the extrinsic haemostatic system, of which factor VII/VIIa (FVII/FVIIa) is a key constituent, in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is well recognized. The contribution of FVII gene variants R353Q and -323P0/10, and altered FVII plasma levels to the risk of ACS was investigat...
(22) lends more support that the PCSK9 level is an emerging cardiovascular risk factor. Because urinary 11-dh-TxB2 levels are not only dependent on platelets, the findings of Pastori et al. (22) should be validated by studies that directly measure platelet reactivity and activation. The ...
If the degree of deflection is more severe, the drilling pipe can no longer be moved regardless of the amount of load applied, or a lock-up will occur. Directional drilling, such as horizontal drilling, is a risk factor that must be avoided owing to the high level of damage, including ...
Generally, there are no more than nine sub-factors under a single factor; otherwise, the subsequent comparison will be more difficult. The second step is to determine the scale and construct the judgment matrix. In order to distinguish the importance of different indicators in different levels, ...
