ABSTRACT Aim Calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) such as tacrolimus (Tac) are the first‐line treatment to prevent transplant rejection. However, CNI have adverse effects on blood vessels and renal function, which may be linked to cellular senescence. Valsartan, a common angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blocker, exhibits anti‐senescence properties.

Evaluation of noninvasive cardiac output methods during exercise [PDF]
Noninvasive techniques to estimate cardiac output (Qc) will be used during future space flight. This retrospective literature survey compared the Qc techniques of carbon dioxide rebreathing (CO2-R), CO2 single breath (CO2-S), Doppler (DOP), impedance (IM)

ABSTRACT Although sphingolipids are key players in lipotoxicity and metabolic diseases, their response to bariatric surgery and their relation to metabolic improvement remain unclear. This pilot study investigated plasma sphingolipid remodeling after Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and its associations with clinical and biochemical markers of ...

Kinetic liquid metal synthesis of flexible 2D conductive oxides for multimodal wearable sensing
Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) are crucial for high-performance displays, solar cells, and wearable sensors. However, their high process temperatures and brittle nature have hindered their use in flexible electronics.

Antenatal Maternal Smoking and Lung Function in Very Prematurely Born Children
ABSTRACT Introduction Antenatal exposure to maternal smoking negatively impacts on fetal lung development resulting in infant lung function abnormalities. Lung clearance indices (LCI) were worse in term born infants exposed to antenatal maternal smoking compared to not. Our aim was to assess the effect of antenatal maternal smoking on lung function, in

Noninvasive estimation of fluid shifts between body compartments by measurement of bioelectric characteristics [PDF]
Previous research has established that bioelectrical characteristics of the human body reflect fluid status to some extent. It has been previously assumed that changes in electrical resistance (R) and reactance (X) are associated with changes in total ...

Heart rate variability (HRV) has been analyzed to assess the effects of food on autonomic nervous activity, but HRV is reportedly influenced by respiration. Reducing respiratory artifacts in HRV analysis requires respiratory signals. In this study, we estimated respiratory signals from electrocardiogram (ECG), compared these signals with actual ...
