AIMS: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a common and severe complication to type 2 diabetes (T2D). The pathogenesis of DPN is not fully known, but several pathways and gene polymorphisms contributing to DPN are described. DPN can be studied using nerve biopsies, but studies on the proteome of the nerve itself, and its surrounding tissue as a whole, are lacking. Studies on the posterior inter

Adolescence (10–19 years) is marked by many physiological changes and is vulnerable to health and nutritional problems. Adolescence, particularly, early adolescence is inadequately addressed in our national surveys. The present study aimed to assess the reproductive health awareness, nutrition, and hygiene of marginalized adolescent girls and boys and compare them among early and late adolescents.

Background: A community-based intervention was implemented to improve maternal, child, and adolescent health practices, promote financial literacy and enhance livelihood opportunities for young people in marginalized communities. A hypothesis related to our intervention was that peer-led education sessions on health and nutrition in conjunction with community mobilization would change communities'

Cytochrome c oxidase in the respiratory chain of bacteria and mitochondria couples the reduction of molecular oxygen to form water with the generation of a transmembrane proton gradient. Bacillus subtilis has two heme A-containing heme–copper oxidases: the menaquinol oxidase cytochrome aa3 and the cytochrome c oxidase cytochrome caa3. By screening three collections of mutants for defective cytochr

Respiration is a major trait shaping the biology of many environments. Cytochrome oxidase containing heme A (COX) is a common terminal oxidase in aerobic bacteria and is the only one in mammalian mitochondria. The synthesis of heme A is catalyzed by heme A synthase (CtaA/Cox15), an enzyme that most likely coevolved with COX. The evolutionary origin of COX in bacteria has remained unknown. Using ex

This article describes an innovative transnational education project involving three European universities, funded through ERASMUS+. One of its aims was to develop and provide a curriculum to facilitate students’ understanding and identification of occupational (in)justice by exposing them to marginalised people living in three European communities with differing cultural, social, and political sy

Irans nye president har starka kopplingar till landets högste ledare Ali Khamenei, och Iran kommer att fortsätta på den inslagna vägen av diktatur och förtryck, hävdar debattörerna Arvin och Ardavan Khoshnood i en analys av den nye presidenten och Irans framtid under honom.Iran’s new president has strong ties to the country’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei, and Iran will continue on the path of dictatorship and oppression, argue debaters Arvin and Ardavan Khoshnood in an analysis of the new president and Iran’s future under him.
