Benefits of having friends in older ages: differential effects of informal social activities on well-being in middle-aged and older adults.

The journals of gerontology. Series B, Psychological sciences and social sciences, 2014
OBJECTIVES It has been considered a fact that informal social activities promote well-being in old age, irrespective of whether they are performed with friends or family members. Fundamental differences in the relationship quality between family members (

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Left Transitive AG-groupoids [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
An AG-groupoid is an algebraic structure that satisfies the left invertive law: (ab)c =(cb)a. We prove that the class of left transitive AG-groupoids (AG-groupoids satisfying the identity, ab.ac = bc) coincides with the class of T2-AG-groupoids. We also develop a simple procedure to test whether an arbitrary groupoid is left transitive AG-groupoid or ...

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Food-addiction scale measurement in 2 cohorts of middle-aged and older women.

American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2014
BACKGROUND Excess weight is a major threat to public health. An addiction-like tendency toward certain foods may contribute to overeating. OBJECTIVE We aimed to describe the prevalence and associated characteristics in relation to a food-addiction ...

Clinical applications of next‐generation sequencing‐based ctDNA analyses in breast cancer: defining treatment targets and dynamic changes during disease progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and

The mathematics in middle-aged Arab caliphate and it application to contemporary teaching in high schools [PDF]

Scholars Journal of Physics, Mathematics and Statistics. Vol-2, Issue-1 (Dec-Feb), (2015) 37-43, 2016
This paper offers a glimpse of the major contributions made by Arabs to mathematics in middle ages history period. Its purpose is to stimulate interest in an object based on mutual respect and understanding. We give a short list of the most popular Arabic mathematicians and we comment some of their studies for using them in the high school teaching.

Potential antigenic explanation for atypical H1N1 infections among middle-aged adults during the 2013–2014 influenza season

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2014
Significance Influenza viruses typically cause a higher disease burden in children and the elderly, who have weaker immune systems. During the 2013–2014 influenza season, H1N1 viruses caused an unusually high level of disease in middle-aged adults. Here,

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.
