This study compared the body water turnover in endurance athletes and age-matched sedentary men. Eight competitive enduranee athletes (20.8 ± 1.9 yr) and age-matched eight sedentary men (21.6 ± 2.5yr) participated in this study. Total body water and body water turnover were measured using the deuterium (D20) dilution technique. Urine samples were obtained every day for 1Odays after oral adminis...

Introduction: Over the last decade, exposure to electromagnetic waves due to base station antennas has increased. This study was planned to evaluate the effects of different electrical field strengths with 950 MHz waves of the GSM mobile phone system on the excitatory postsynaptic potentiation (EPSP) slope of the dentate gyrus long-term potentiation (LTP). Material and Methods: Twenty four naiv...

OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of obesity on incidence of disability and mortality among non-disabled older Mexicans at baseline. MATERIALS AND METHODS The sample included 8 415 Mexicans aged ≥ 50 years from the Mexican Health and Aging Study (2001 -2012), who reported no limitations in activities of daily living (ADLs) at baseline and have complete data on all covariates. Sociodemographics,...

[1] Beamforming of seismic noise recorded on 150 Southern California stations was used to identify body and surface waves generated by Katrina. Surface wave microseisms are commonly associated with oceanic storms; there are no previous comprehensive body wave observations. The temporal evolution of the surface and body waves was different, indicating a different source mechanism for the two wav...

A well balanced numerical scheme based on stationary waves for shallow water flows with arbitrary topography has been introduced by Thanh et al. [18]. The scheme was constructed so that it maintains equilibrium states and tests indicate that it is stable and fast. Applying the well-balanced scheme for the one-dimensional shallow water equations, we study the early shock waves propagation toward...

Acquired factor V inhibitor (AFVI) is an extremely rare disorder that may cause severe bleeding. To identify factors associated with bleeding risk in AFVI patients, a national, multicentre, retrospective study was made including all patients followed 21 centres France between 1988 and 2015. All had isolated (FV) deficiency <50% activity. Patients constitutional FV other causes of acquired coagu...
