Testimony on a successful lab protocol to disrupt Chlorella vulgaris microalga cell wall

Plos.org 

by Paula A. Lopes, Diogo Coelho, José A. M. Prates

Over the last decades, microalgae have gained popularity due to demand for novel environmental green solutions and development of innovative mass-production sources for multiple processes, including animal feed and human diet, turning microalgae into an exquisite candidate for several ecofriendly technologies. Notwithstanding, there is a catch. Most species of microalgae, as the case of common Chlorella vulgaris (C. vulgaris) display a recalcitrant cell wall... Читать дальше...

Staff and resident perceptions on the introduction of a team based multi-specialty resident night shift system

Plos.org 

by Steven J. Katz

Objectives

To determine the perceptions of staff and resident physicians on the impact of implementation of a new team based multi-specialty resident night shift system.

Methods

An electronic survey was distributed anonymously to all resident physicians in the Core Internal Medicine residency program at the University of Alberta. A similar survey was distributed to staff physicians in the 4 specialties impacted by this new system: hematology, respirology, nephrology and gastroenterology. Читать дальше...

Sensitivity of discrete symmetry metrics: Implications for metric choice

Plos.org 

by Allen Hill, Julie Nantel

Gait asymmetry is present in several pathological populations, including those with Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and stroke survivors. Previous studies suggest that commonly used discrete symmetry metrics, which compare single bilateral variables, may not be equally sensitive to underlying effects of asymmetry, and the use of a metric with low sensitivity could result in unnecessarily low statistical power. The purpose of this study was to provide... Читать дальше...

Diagnostic value of smartphone in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Plos.org 

by Do Hyun Kim, Sung Won Kim, Se Hwan Hwang

Objectives

To assess the diagnostic utility of smartphone-based measurement in detecting moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).

Methods

Six databases were thoroughly reviewed. Random-effect models were used to estimate the summary sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value, diagnostic odds ratio, summary receiver operating characteristic curve and measured the areas under the curve.

Assessing behavioral sex differences to chemical cues of predation risk while provisioning nestlings in a hole-nesting bird

Plos.org 

by Irene Saavedra, Gustavo Tomás, Luisa Amo

Birds can assess nest predation risk and adjust their parental activity accordingly. Risk taking behavior should be related to investment in reproduction as well as to confidence in parenthood that often differ between sexes. In those cases, sexual differences in risk taking behavior may be expected. For example, in blue tits, females invest more time and energy than males in nest-building, egg laying and incubation. Furthermore, confidence in parenthood is supposed to be higher for females... Читать дальше...

Association of hypertension with helicobacter pylori: A systematic review and meta‑analysis

Plos.org 

by Yizhen Fang, Huabin Xie, Chunming Fan

Background and aims

The number of hypertensive population rises year by year recently, and their age becomes more youthful. For a long time, hypertension has long been regarded as a multi-factorial disease. In addition to smoking, genetics, diet and other factors, helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) had been regarded as a potential risk factor for hypertension in recent years. However, most studies had certain limitations and their results were inconsistent. Читать дальше...

Perturbation-based trunk stabilization training in elite rowers: A pilot study

Plos.org 

by Robin Schäfer, Hendrik Schäfer, Petra Platen

Introduction

Low back pain is a major health issue in elite rowers. High training volume, frequent flexion movements of the lower spine and rotational movement in sweep rowing contribute to increased spinal strain and neuropathological patterns. Perturbation-based trunk stabilization training (PTT) may be effective to treat neuromuscular deficits and low back pain.

Methods

All boat classes (8+, 4+/-, 2-) of the male German national... Читать дальше...

Prevalence, incidence, morbidity and mortality rates of COPD in Saudi Arabia: Trends in burden of COPD from 1990 to 2019

Plos.org 

by Jaber S. Alqahtani

Background

The available data to determine the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) burden in Saudi Arabia are scarce. Therefore, this study closely examines and tracks the trends of the COPD burden in Saudi Arabia from 1990 to 2019 using the dataset of the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019.

Methods

This study used the GBD 2019 dataset to analyse the COPD prevalence, incidence, morbidity and mortality rates in the Saudi Arabian population from 1990 to 2019, stratified by sex and age. Читать дальше...
