Air Displacement Plethysmography for Estimating Body Composition Changes with Weight Loss in Middle-Aged Japanese Men [PDF]

Obesity Facts, 2010
To examine the degree to which air displacement plethysmography (ADP) can track body composition changes in response to weight loss in obese Japanese men.50 men, aged 30-65 years with a mean BMI of 30 kg/m(2), were included in a 3-month weight loss program. Percentage of fat mass (%FM) was determined by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and ADP at

Air Pollution and the Risk and Progression of Multiple Sclerosis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Air pollution has been linked to several neurological conditions, including stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Evidence regarding its association with multiple sclerosis (MS) remains conflicting, limited by small sample sizes. Methods PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane controlled register of trials (CENTRAL) were searched on ...

Neurochemical Endpoints to Inform Early‐Stage Trials of Spinocerebellar Ataxia 2 and 3 in a Multisite Setting

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neurochemical levels measured by brain MR spectroscopy (MRS) have been proposed as endpoints for clinical trials in early‐stage spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) trials. We tested their trial‐readiness by quantifying neurochemicals in three affected brain regions in early‐stage cohorts of SCA2 and SCA3, examining their reproducibility in ...

Estimation of Space Air Change Rates and CO2 Generation Rates for Mechanically-Ventilated Buildings [PDF]

, 2011
It is well known that people spend 80-90% of their life time indoors. At the same time, pollution levels of indoors can be much higher than outdoor levels. Not surprisingly, the term ‘sick building syndrome’ (SBS) has been used to describe situations where occupants experience acute health and comfort effects that are related to poor air in buildings ...

New Onset of Fibromyalgia After Exposure to a Combat Environment: A Longitudinal Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Traumatic life events are hypothesized to be triggers for the onset of fibromyalgia. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common comorbidity of fibromyalgia. However, limited prospective data are available on the development of fibromyalgia after exposure to high‐magnitude stress.

Prediction of Air Temperature in East Java using Spatial Extreme Value with Copula Approach

JTAM (Jurnal Teori dan Aplikasi Matematika)
The increase in world temperature or global warming is a form of imbalance in the average temperature on Earth. The increase in air temperature will increase the risk of disasters, which will occur more frequently in the future.

Electrochemical Evaluation of Compressed Selective Laser Melted AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg Alloys in Chloride Environment

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The corrosion performance of AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg alloys produced through selective laser melting (SLM) was examined under compressive stress in a chloride environment. Electrochemical analyses, including open‐circuit potential (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization (CPP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were complemented by scanning ...
