A wide difference of opinion exists about the content and composition of emotions. Advertising may influence an audience and their buying decisions about products and services. The objective of this study is to better conceptualize how women emotionally respond to emotional advertisements (EAs). The variant views are integrated into an ACE model, composed of subordinate levels of emotions (E), ...

The activity of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) was assessed in human body fluids (serum, seminal plasma, prostatic secretions), in tissue extracts of the testis, epididymis, prostate and skeletal muscle, in split ejaculates and in seminal plasma obtained from patients before and after vasectomy. To ensure the specificity of the results the dependence of ACE activity on specific inhibitors ...

Proteins and peptides of housefly larvae (HFL) have potential applications in food therapy. The fate HFL proteins following human gastrointestinal (GI) digestion is unknown. This study adopted a computational approach to discover released from upon GI digestion. In silico eight major 783 peptides. comprised 243 exhibiting 13 types bioactivities. Ninety-two single-function anti-dipeptidyl peptid...

Small bowel angioedema induced by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors is a rare clinicopathologic entity. It frequently poses a diagnostic challenge and is often not recognized before surgical exploration. The present study illustrates that clinical awareness for this condition and adequate use of radiologic investigations can help make the correct diagnosis of ACE inhibitor-associat...

The efficacy and safety of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors has been well established; these agents have shown an overwhelming and unequivocal benefit in placebo-controlled trials across a spectrum of patients at risk for cardiovascular events.1–9 What has been less clear, however, is whether inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system with angiotensin receptor blockers...

Understanding how the building design influences construction costs is a challenging task for estimators. Estimators must recognize the design conditions that affect construction costs and customize the cost estimate accordingly. Estimators have different preferences for how and when to adjust a project’s activities, resources, and resource productivity rates that form the basis of a cost estim...

angioedema is an asymmetric non-pitting oedema on face, lips, tongue and mucous membranes; any delay in diagnosis and treatment can be fatal. treatment with lisinopril as an angiotensin converting enzyme (ace) inhibitor, can be a reason of angioedema. here we report a case who developed oral-facial edema four years after using lisinopril/hydrochlorothiazide. laryngeal oedema is a main cause of ...
