Objective: To evaluate hand and arm function and its association with motor symptoms as well as activities of daily living (ADL) in de novo Parkinson’s disease (PD).Background: Motor symptoms and disability in upper limb are common in PD and usually assessed using Unified PD Rating Scale (UPDRS). Activities, like reaching, grasping, manipulating objects, writing, dressing, and eating, may be more Objective: To evaluate hand and arm function and its association with motor symptoms as well as activities of daily living (ADL) in de novo Parkinson’s disease (PD).Background: Motor symptoms and disability in upper limb are common in PD and usually assessed using Unified PD Rating Scale (UPDRS).

Externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) was used to increase load bearing capacity of light weight aggregate concrete (LWA) masonry walls subjected to eccentric axial compression. Ladder type masonry reinforcement, high strength steel wire strips and glass fiber mesh were used for strengthening of eleven, 2.4 m high, 0.5 m long and 0.1 m thick walls. The reinforcement was applied on the dry wall sur

Introduction: The pulmonary oxygen uptake is reduced during apnea, compared to eupneic baseline, preserving the pulmonary oxygen store. This study elucidates the time course for this reduction, comparing it to the time course for apnea-induced cardiovascular responses. Methods and results: Experiments involved two groups, performing apneas during rest, both without and with cold-water face immersi

This study scans six decades of film history in search for video images, the imaginaries within which they are framed, and (taking cues from the archaeological methods of Friedrich Kittler and Michel Foucault) their technical, historical, and institutional conditions of existence. The British experimental science fiction film Anti-Clock (Jane Arden and Jack Bond, 1979) revolves around a video devi

Our book has taken a distinctive, policy-oriented approach to IGR in analysing both specific crisis-driven problems and new, longer-term, and emerging policy issues confronting European governments. We have explored the shifting balances of power within IGR systems focused on the challenges of vertical and horizontal coordination within cross-country, comparative perspectives. In order to position

Cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality is high in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Most patients reveal a high prevalence of CV risk factors such as diabetes or arterial hypertension and many have manifest cardiovascular disease (CVD), such as coronary artery disease and chronic heart failure with an increased risk of clinical events including sudden cardiac death. Diabetes mellitu

Small birds are hot creatures with an average body temperature of 40° Centigrade, and so must burn energy at a formidable rate to stay warm. This becomes quite the challenge in winter when birds are 40-50 degrees warmer than outside for extended periods, even in comparatively mild regions such as Scotland. Thus, the little bird in winter must spend most of the day either feeding or searching for

Connecting actors across sectors, scales and decision-making arenas, complex global networks make up central elements of the social structure of earth system governance. Taking a relational perspective, the notion of global socio-technical regimes places networks within the centre of discussions on stability and change. Described as dominant institutional rationalities diffusing through internatio

AbstractBackground: Non-communicable diseases are the number one killer worldwide and the leading one,cardiovascular disease (CVD), is responsible for more than 30% of all deaths. CVD is a progressive disease whichalso makes it economical, easy and effective to prevent. There are many stages of CVD that ultimately can lead tocoronary atherosclerosis, measurable as coronary artery calcification (CA

As biological surfactants, bile salts (BSs), play important roles in biological processes, i.e., food digestion, but also in BS-related diseases, as well as in applications. In this thesis, the main focus was to gain a fundamental understanding of the intermolecular interactions between BSs and cationic block copolymers with the purpose of developing new BS sequestrants that are used in the treatm

Background: One of the most serious secondary manifestations of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is coronary atherosclerosis. This study aimed to evaluate whether aged garlic extract (AGE) can influence coronary artery calcification (CAC) and to predict the individual effect of AGE using a standard process for data mining (CRISP-DM). Method: This was a single-center parallel randomized controlled stud

Background: Omega-3 and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) are two widely used “over-the-counter” drugs. Previous researchhas shown multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA) can detect ASA and varying Omega-3 platelet inhibiting effects.Synergistic platelet inhibiting effects of ASA and Omega-3 have been found using other methods than MEA. The aimof this study was to investigate the antiplatelet effects of Om

As a solution to solving energy consumption and environment problems, photovoltaics has become one type of the promising devices to convert solar energy into electricity directly. In some special areas like in space, a kind of photovoltaics with lightweight and reliable properties is needed to supply power. Therefore, photovoltaics based on the group III-V semiconductor nanowires has been emerged

Conformational changes and stability of interacting double-stranded DNA chains under high hydrostatic pressure in biological systems are striking topics of importance to study several biomolecular phenomena. For example, to unravel the physiological conditions at which life might occur and to ensure the right functionality of the biochemical processes into the cell under extreme thermodynamic cond

In order to study the influence of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis on the levels of endogenous digitalis-like substances (EDLS) in plasma and urine, eight healthy subjects (25-40 years old) were given dexamethasone 1 mg orally and tetracosactide (an ACTH analog) 0.25 mg i.v., on separate occasions. The circulating levels of EDLS, TSH, PRL and AVP following administration of either test dru

This paper aimed to study the agreement and repeatability, both intra- and interobserver, of infrapopliteal lesion assessment with magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), using the TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC) II criteria, with perioperative digital subtraction angiography (DSA) as a reference. Sixty-eight patients with an MRA preceding an endovascular infrapopliteal revascularizatio

Background The number and rank order of siblings could be of importance for risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Previous studies have used only fatal events for risk prediction. We, therefore, aimed to use also non-fatal coronary and cardiovascular events in fully adjusted models. Methods From the Multiple-Generation Register in Sweden, data were used from 1.36 million men and 1.32 milli
