Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

A Model for Reading Comedy Using Hegel’s Concept of SelfConsciousness
This study develops a dramaturgical model for reading comedy texts based on the concept of self-consciousness. After explaining the acceptance of consciousness as expressed in Hegel’s (1807) Phenomenology of Spirit, the subject is then shown to also an ...

Proposal for an Approach to Artificial Consciousness Based on Self-Consciousness [PDF]
Current research on artificial consciousness is focused on\ud phenomenal consciousness and on functional consciousness.\ud We propose to shift the focus to self-consciousness in order\ud to open new areas of investigation.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Evolutionary aspects of self- and world consciousness in vertebrates
Although most aspects of world and self-consciousness are inherently subjective, neuroscience studies in humans and non-human animals provide correlational and causative indices of specific links between brain activity and representation of the self and ...

Adolescent Loneliness, Self-Disclosure, and Private Self-Consciousness: A Longitudinal Investigation [PDF]
Examined the causal relations that exist among loneliness, self-disclosure, and private self-consciousness, building on an earlier study by S. L. Franzoi and M. H. Davis (see record 1985-19892-001). Using structural equation techniques and a longitudinal

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Temporal structure of consciousness and minimal self in schizophrenia
The concept of the minimal self refers to the consciousness of oneself as an immediate subject of experience. According to recent studies, disturbances of the minimal self may be a core feature of schizophrenia.
