Effects of long-chain omega-3 (LCn3) and omega-6 fatty acids on prevention and treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD, including Crohn’s Disea
Objectives We tested the hypothesis that the free-β subunit (βhCG) is diagnostically more sensitive with total hCG assays (hCGt) not detecting all tumours secreting βhCG. The effects of sex, age, and renal failure were investigated as secondary object
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) phosphatidylcholines (PC) are associated with neuroimaging measures of amyloid deposition and neurodegeneration (glucose metabolism, cortical thickness, hippocampal volume), cognitive decline, or risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) among cognitively unimpaired (CU) older adults...
In 39 patients, the source of donor hematopoietic cells were granulocyte colony–stimulating factor (G-CSF)–stimulated peripheral blood cells (PBCs) containing medians of 6.0 × 106 (range, 1.5 × 106-21.6 × 106) CD34+and 3.4 × 108 (range, 0.8 × 108-10.0 × 108) CD3+cells/kg. In...
Prior studies have shown t-tau levels to be significantly higher in AD than healthy controls, but there is considerable overlap across the diagnostic groups using both IMR18and SIMOA37methods. A previous IMR study found a negative association between plasma t-tau and volume of total gray matter...
Lung functions were measured twice with air or twice with saline filled lung as described previously [33]. Saline enables exclusion of surface tension. Lungs were filled to TLC (30 cm H2O), emptied in 0.1 ml steps, and volume and corresponding plateau pressures were determined after each step...

change in the volume of plasma water and change in the concentration of one or more of the specific proteins in the plasma. A decrease in the volume of plasma water (hemoconcentration), as seen in inadequate water intake or excessivewater loss, results in relative hyperproteinemia.Hemodilution...
Although the results are inconclusive, Cu and Zn seem to show an antagonistic correlation with senile plaque load and decrease in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of AD patients [20]. The accumulation of Cu and Fe in the brain has been connected with increased oxidative stress in AD [21]. ...
proposed global Maxwell tomography on the basis of the volume integral equation formulations [30]. Balidemaj et al. introduced contrast source inversion EPT (CSI-EPT) [31]. However, these methods require extensive numerical efforts and have not been investigated in vivo experiments. The recent ...
