To examine the effect of the NAD+ precursor, nicotinic acid (NA), for improving skeletal muscle status in sedentary older people.

Abstract The aquatic flora of Minnesota’s freshwater lakes have been extensively surveyed for purposes of resource assessment, research, and ecosystem management. Despite widespread use of a common method for vegetatio...

Abstract Background The exponential rise in colorectal cancer surgeries among older adults combined with 30-day readmission rates as high as 25% highlights the crucial need to optimize post-discharge care. While geriatri...

ABSTRACT This is the protocol for a Campbell scoping review. The objectives are as follows: (i) To define and characterize the food environment of pastoralists in Africa; (ii) To identify the domains of the food environm...

Abstract The upwelling of warm Circumpolar Deep Water is a key process in the global climate system, transporting heat, nutrients, and carbon poleward towards Antarctic ice shelves. Here we use physical and chemical seaw...

Objectives Social prescribing has provided a lifeline to people, capturing the importance of quality support offered via community connections. It has not been exempt from difficulties, resulting in low-quality evidence ...

The assembly of inorganic nanoparticles often leads to collective properties that are different from the combined properties of the individual components. In particular, coupling plasmonic and excitonic nanoparticles has...

Abstract Case Description We describe a case of presumptive acquired systemic lupus erythematosus secondary to phenobarbital administration in a dog, which resolved with withdrawal of the drug. Clinical Findings A 3.5 ...

Abstract Peatlands are among Earth’s largest terrestrial carbon stores and are crucial for climate regulation, biodiversity conservation, and water security. Yet peatlands worldwide are deteriorating under pressures fr...

Animal promoters initiate transcription either at precise positions (narrow promoters) or dispersed regions (broad promoters), a distinction referred to as promoter shape. Although highly conserved, the functional proper...

Abstract Cavities provide a means to manipulate the optical and electronic responses of quantum materials by selectively enhancing light-matter interaction at specific frequencies and momenta. While cavities typically in...

Introduction Early open fracture management aims to minimise the risk of complications. For the most severe open fracture wounds, multiple irrigation and debridement surgeries are required to overcome severe wound contam...

ABSTRACT The bacterial flagellar filament acts as a propeller to drive most bacterial swimming. The filament is made of flagellin, known as FliC in Escherichia coli. FliC consists of four domains, the highly conserved co...

Abstract Randomization is a key component to scientific inquiry as it facilitates unbiased estimation of treatment effects via balancing of measured and unmeasured prognostic variables across treatment groups. Recent rep...

Abstract The use of animal-borne devices to measure acceleration has yielded insights into animal locomotion, behaviour and energy expenditure. We present the first systematic review of accelerometry on animals, spanning...

ABSTRACT This study profiled the sprint speed of young male rugby union players in a national pathway academy, comparing different technologies for determining maximal velocity (Vmax), while also examining age‐group an...

Objective: To identify within the published literature the relationship between the experience of burnout and patient safety. Methods: Scoping review conducted in accordance with the JBI methodology for scoping reviews. ...

This paper documents the seventeenth data release (DR17) from the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys; the fifth and final release from the fourth phase (SDSS-IV). DR17 contains the complete release of the Mapping Nearby Galaxies ...

The purpose of this narrative review is to offer an updated perspective on the current research on the glycoprotein Osteoprotegerin (OPG), including its potential therapeutic impact and mechanisms of action, and interact...

Abstract Background Adaptive designs (ADs) are increasingly used, whereby outcome data accumulated during the trial may inform a trial’s course in accordance with pre-specified rules at interim analyses. The benefits h...

Abstract Medicine is evolving beyond therapy largely predicated on anatomical information and towards incorporating patient-specific molecular biomarkers of disease for more accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Th...

Abstract Background Medical students are exposed to human suffering more frequently and intensely than before they began their training, but they are often not sufficiently educated for these experiences. To our knowledg...
