The NITRATE-CIN Study: A randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled trial testing the effect of inorganic nitrate on contrast-induced nephropathy in patients undergoing coronary angiography for acute coronary syndromes
(Oxford University Press, 21-03-2024)Background and Aims Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), also known as contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) underlies a significant proportion of the morbidity and mortality following coronary angiographic ... -
Chickens get their place in the sun.
(BMC, 2007-05-25)A report on the International Chick Meeting 'The Chick as a Model Organism: Genes, Development and Function', Barcelona, Spain, 11-14 April 2007. -
Low Citrate Synthase Activity Is Associated with Glucose Intolerance and Lipotoxicity.
(Hindawi, 2019-03-03)Citrate synthase (CS) is a key mitochondrial enzyme. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that low CS activity impairs the metabolic health of mice fed a high fat diet (HFD) and promotes palmitate-induced ... -
Pre-Exercise Rehydration Attenuates Central Fatigability during 2-Min Maximum Voluntary Contraction in Hyperthermia.
(MDPI, 2019-03-12)Background and objectives: Hyperthermia with dehydration alters several brain structure volumes, mainly by changing plasma osmolality, thus strongly affecting neural functions (cognitive and motor). Here, we aimed to examine ... -
Corrigendum to "Low Citrate Synthase Activity Is Associated with Glucose Intolerance and Lipotoxicity".
(Hindawi, 2019-08-01)[This corrects the article DOI: 10.1155/2019/8594825.]. -
Myostatin dysfunction does not protect from fasting-induced loss of muscle mass in mice.
(2019-09-01)OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to investigate if myostatin dysfunction can ameliorate fasting-induced muscle wasting. METHODS: 18-week old males from Berlin high (BEH) strain with myostatin dysfunction and wild type ... -
Literature Review of BARD1 as a Cancer Predisposing Gene with a Focus on Breast and Ovarian Cancers.
(2020-07-27)Soon after the discovery of BRCA1 and BRCA2 over 20 years ago, it became apparent that not all hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer syndrome families were explained by germline variants in these cancer predisposing ... -
White generosity: black freedom faced with good intentions
(Emerald, 2020-09-22)I advance a theory of white generosity, a product of whiteness and of hierarchized relationships between races characterised by the giving to the racialized person that which has not been asked for and which has no practical ... -
Age stratified, matched comparison of unicompartmental and total knee replacement.
(2020-10)BACKGROUND: Unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) tends to provide better function but has a higher revision rate than total knee replacement (TKR). The aim was to determine if this occurred in all age groups. METHODS: ... -
Correction to: Atypical pathogens in hospitalized patients with community-acquired pneumonia: a worldwide perspective.
(2020-10-13)An amendment to this paper has been published and can be accessed via the original article. -
Quiver mutations, Seiberg duality, and machine learning
(2020-10-15)We initiate the study of applications of machine learning to Seiberg duality, focusing on the case of quiver gauge theories, a problem also of interest in mathematics in the context of cluster algebras. Within the general ... -
Amino Acids Whose Intracellular Levels Change Most During Aging Alter Chronological Life Span of Fission Yeast.
(Oxford University Press, 2020-11-03)Amino acid deprivation or supplementation can affect cellular and organismal life span, but we know little about the role of concentration changes in free, intracellular amino acids during aging. Here, we determine free ... -
Design of Photosensitizing Agents for Targeted Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy.
(2020-11-10)Photodynamic inactivation of microorganisms has gained substantial attention due to its unique mode of action, in which pathogens are unable to generate resistance, and due to the fact that it can be applied in a minimally ... -
Bioorthogonal Swarming: In Situ Generation of Dendrimers
(American Chemical Society, 2020-12-16)With the aid of bioorthogonal chemistry, we demonstrate the fabrication of synthetic dendrimers in situ around living cells. Using tetrazine dienophile and aminooxyl/hydrazide aldehyde chemistries, the density of functional ...
