Theories behind the effect of starch‑ and sucrose‑reduced diets on gastrointestinal symptoms in irritable bowel syndrome (Review)

increased amounts of starch and sugar have been added to the diet in the Western world during the last decades. undigested carbohydrates lead to bacterial fermentation and gas production with diffusion of water, causing abdominal bloating, pain and diarrhea. Therefore, dietary advice is the first line of treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a disease characterized by abdominal pain and alt

Oxygen in Metabolic Dysfunction and Its Therapeutic Relevance

Significance: In recent years, a number of studies have shown altered oxygen partial pressure at a tissue level in metabolic disorders, and some researchers have considered oxygen to be a (macro) nutrient. Oxygen availability may be compromised in obesity and several other metabolism-related pathological conditions, including sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome, the metabolic syndrome (which is a set of

Extent of absent end-diastolic flow in umbilical artery and outcome of pregnancy

Objective: To investigate if the extent of absent end-diastolic flow (AEDF) on umbilical artery (UA) Doppler velocimetry predicts pregnancy outcome. Methods: This was a retrospective observational study based on data from 25 000 Doppler examinations of UA flow performed between 1998 and 2017 at the Blood Flow Laboratory, Level III Perinatal Center, Lund, Sweden. All pregnancies with AEDF in the UA

Familial risks and proportions describing population landscape of familial cancer

Background: Familial cancer can be defined through the occurrence of the same cancer in two or more family members. We describe a nationwide landscape of familial cancer, including its frequency and the risk that it conveys, by using the largest family database in the world with complete family structures and medically confirmed cancers. Patients/methods: We employed standardized incidence ratios

Impact of incomplete surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy for the intraoperative rupture of capsulated stage I epithelial ovarian cancer : a multi-institutional study with an in-depth subgroup analysis

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of incomplete surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy on the prognosis of patients with intraoperative rupture of capsulated stage I epithelial ovarian cancer (OvCa). METHODS: A regional retrospective study was conducted between 1986 and 2019. Among 4,730 patients with malignant ovarian tumors, 534 women with International Federation of

Non-Farm Activities and Impacts beyond the Economy of Rural Households in Vietnam: A Review and Link to Policies

Rural households in Asian developing countries such as Vietnam have been participating in non-farm activities for decades, yet impacts beyond the economy of these households are little understood. Using evidence from available literature and two case studies from rural Vietnam, this paper exposes a range of socio-cultural impacts of non-farm activities. An increased social tension driven by a wide

Antibodies to a 64,000 Mr human islet cell antigen precede the clinical onset of insulin-dependent diabetes

Antibodies in sera from newly diagnosed insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients are directed to a human islet cell protein of relative molecular mass (Mr) 64,000. Since IDDM seems to develop after a prodromal period of beta-cell autoimmunity, this study has examined whether 64,000 Mr antibodies could be detected in 14 individuals who subsequently developed IDDM and five first degree re

On the Thermodynamic Solvation of Biomolecules in Solution

The topic solvation thermodynamics is an important aspect of chemistry, dealing with the effects introduced by solvents onto solutes. In particular, biological systems are highly heterogeneous in their choice of solvent typically characterized by either being in a polar or non-polar environment. For example, the cytoplasm of cells constituting the internal environment of cells is an aqueous solven

Strävan efter självständighet : Inre och yttre krav på en idéburen välfärdsaktör

En ideal bild av en aktör visar på självständighet och kontroll. För organisationer i det civila samhället är frågorna om beroende och oberoende ständigt brännande. Ett nytt krav på en ”effektrapport” väcker mycken tankemöda. Ska den idéburna verksamheten börja ”mäta en massa saker” i stället för att ”jobba, jobba!”?Kapitlet redovisar en studie som sträcker sig över fem år om införandet av en redo

COVID-19 in Pregnancy and Early Childhood (COPE) : study protocol for a prospective, multicentre biobank, survey and database cohort study

INTRODUCTION: There is limited knowledge on how the SARS-CoV-2 affects pregnancy outcomes. Studies investigating the impact of COVID-19 in early pregnancy are scarce and information on long-term follow-up is lacking.The purpose of this project is to study the impact of COVID-19 on pregnancy outcomes and long-term maternal and child health by: (1) establishing a database and biobank from pregnant w

On user effects of a low-profile MIMO terminal antenna with wideband multimodal excitation

When in use, a mobile terminal is often held in the hand by the user. However, conventionally terminal antennas are only evaluated in free space, disregarding the effects of user interaction. In this paper, the performance of a low-profile twoport multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna that offers wide symmetrical bandwidth and low correlation in free space is investigated in presence of a

Association of managerial position with cardiovascular risk factors : A fixed-effects analysis for japanese employees

Objectives Although higher occupational classes have been reported to be associated with better health, researchers do not fully understand whether such associations derive from the position or individual characteristics of the person in that position. We examined the association between being a manager and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors using unique panel data in Japan that annually ob

Association of Sleep Duration with All- And Major-Cause Mortality among Adults in Japan, China, Singapore, and Korea

Importance: The association between long sleep duration and mortality appears stronger in East Asian populations than in North American or European populations. Objectives: To assess the sex-specific association between sleep duration and all-cause and major-cause mortality in a pooled longitudinal cohort and to stratify the association by age and body mass index. Design, Setting, and Participants

Citizenship Denied, Deferred and Assumed : A Legal History of Racialized Citizenship in Myanmar

Since the late colonial period, Myanmar has experienced heated debates over notions of belonging, including belonging as inscribed through citizenship status. At independence, Myanmar opted for a hybrid citizenship regime that allowed for paths to citizenship based on both jus sanguinis and jus soli principles, as well as a liberal naturalization policy. However, a new citizenship law passed in 19

Myanmar's Hidden-in-plain-sight social infrastructure : Nalehmu through multiple ruptures

This article examines nalehmu, a set of informal relational practices for negotiating power across scales which have facilitated access and enforced accountability through mutually recognized norms and social sanctions in Myanmar. Like Asef Bayat’s “quiet encroachment” in the Middle East, nalehmu is Myanmar’s discreet and prolonged practice of agency that has enabled ordinary people to survive and
