PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES IN CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS [PDF]

open access: yesChallenges of the Knowledge Society
Precautionary measures are an area that is constantly being adapted, due to their importance both for the proper conduct of the criminal proceedings and because of their implications affecting the constitutionally recognized rights of the suspect, the ...

PARK(ing) time–How park deficiency affects the biological clock in a Drosophila model of Parkinson's disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Drosophila park mutants serve as a model for Parkinson's disease. We used this strain to investigate the connection between oxidative stress and the circadian clock mechanism. We showed that increased oxidative stress affects the physiology of pacemaker cells, disrupting their daily structural plasticity. Lack of rhythmic signaling from pacemaker cells

Association study of 25 type 2 diabetes related Loci with measures of obesity in Indian sib pairs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Obesity is an established risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D) and they are metabolically related through the mechanism of insulin resistance. In order to explore how common genetic variants associated with T2D correlate with body mass index (BMI), we ...

A Quasi-Experiment of Self-Weight Combined with Dietary and Physical Activity to Reduce Postpartum Weight Retention

open access: yesIranian Journal of Nursing and Midwifery Research
Background: The failure to lose postpartum weight retention (PPWR) can impact obesity in later life, making programs aimed at reducing PPWR crucial.

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Neck circumference as an alternative marker of metabolic syndrome in Peruvian adults: A retrospective, cross-sectional study

open access: yesEndocrine and Metabolic Science
Neck circumference is a low-cost and simple anthropometric measure that has been proven to accurately assess central obesity. However, evidence of its use and feasibility in low-resource settings is limited.

Methodological problem with comparing increases in different measures of body weight

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2011
Background A number of studies have compared proportional increases over time in waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI). However this method is flawed.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Are Quantum Measurements on Macroscopic Bodies Feasible? [PDF]

open access: yesEurophysics Letters (EPL), 1990
The possibility to test quantum measurement theories is discussed in the more phenomenological framework of the quantum nondemolition theory. A simple test of the hypothesis of the state vector collapse is proposed by looking for deviations from the Boltzmann distribution of the energy associated to only one complex amplitude of a macroscopic harmonic ...
