A Comprehensive Overview on Necessity and Strategies of Salt Intake Reduction in the Population [PDF]
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have become a major public health problem not only in developed countries, but also in developing countries; as cardiovascular disease is considered to be the leading cause of death in the world.

Characterization of the channel diffusion in a sodium tetrasilicate glass via molecular-dynamics simulations [PDF]
We study the structural and dynamical characteristics of the sodium atoms inside and outside the ``diffusion channels'' in glassy Na$_2$O-4SiO$_2$ (NS4) using classical molecular dynamics. We show that on average neither energetic arguments nor local environment considerations can explain the increased density of sodium atoms inside the subspace made ...

The ubiquitous P-loop fold nucleoside triphosphatases (NTPases) are typically activated by an arginine or lysine ‘finger’. Some of the apparently ancestral NTPases are, instead, activated by potassium ions.

Matrix controlled channel diffusion of sodium in amorphous silica [PDF]
To find the origin of the diffusion channels observed in sodium-silicate glasses, we have performed classical molecular dynamics simulations of Na$_2$O--4SiO$_2$ during which the mass of the Si and O atoms has been multiplied by a tuning coefficient. We observe that the channels disappear and that the diffusive motion of the sodium atoms vanishes if ...

We examined electrolyte imbalance and blood sugar levels in patients with COVID-19 who had no underlying disease. This cross-sectional study in a clinical center was performed in Kermanshah, west of Iran. All patients who had a record of magnesium (Mg2+),

Central Hemodynamic Parameters are Altered in Resistant Hypertensive Individuals
Background: Systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) is one of the major risk factors related to the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Sodium intake is linked to elevated blood pressure and can be estimated by 24-h urinary sodium excretion.

Sodium diffusion through amorphous silica surfaces: A molecular dynamics study [PDF]
We have studied the diffusion inside the silica network of sodium atoms initially located outside the surfaces of an amorphous silica film. We have focused our attention on structural and dynamical quantities, and we have found that the local environment of the sodium atoms is close to the local environment of the sodium atoms inside bulk sodo-silicate

Channel Formation and Intermediate Range Order in Sodium Silicate Melts and Glasses [PDF]
We use inelastic neutron scattering and molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the interplay between the structure and the fast sodium ion diffusion in various sodium silicates. With increasing temperature and decreasing density the structure factors exhibit an emerging prepeak around 0.9 A^-1.

Application of Sigma Metrics and Performance Comparison Between Two Biochemistry Analyser and A Blood Gas Analyser for the Determination of Electrolytes [PDF]
Introduction: Electrolytes have a narrow range of biological variation and small changes are clinically significant. It is important to select the best method for clinical decision making and patient monitoring in the emergency room.
