Background: Adhesive capsulitis or frozen shoulder is among the most prevalent causes of pain and disability in individuals. Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the effect of Photobiomodulation (PBM) on pain, range of motion, and thickness and function of supraspinatus muscle in patients with adhesive capsulitis. Materials & Methods: Overall, 52 subjects (n=26/group) with adhesive capsulitis r...

The most fascinating aspect of science is that there is no permanence; today’s facts are tomorrow’s fallacies. A passage through the annals of the history of medicine showcases fascinating, often gruesome, images of crude surgical procedures and over-simplistic pharmacological ‘‘alchemy’’ that were all held to the epitome of scientific evidence for its time: clinical efficacy, that is, it works...

This study investigated the evolution of trans-9 trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) from cis-9 trans-11 CLA during methylation and its avoidance through a rapid base methylation of milk fat. The study examined three conditions shown to result in loss of cis-9 trans-11 CLA during methylation namely: temperature, methylation time, water contamination in old reagents and acidic conditions. Th...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Current three-dimensional (3D) printed simulations are complicated by insufficient void spaces and inconsistent density. We describe a novel simulation with focus on internal anatomic fidelity and evaluate against template/identical cadaveric education. STUDY DESIGN Research ethics board-approved prospective cohort study. METHODS Generation of a 3D printed temporal bon...

This study aims to find and analyze the profitability level of Fried Onion Small Business in Palu City, influenced by Patronage Buying Motives (PBM), which consist company reputation, location sales, selling price guarantee profitability. The population this was 52. Population chosen based on small business that still survives fried onion as a local business. sample taken purposive sampling 35....

The contribution from different emission sources and atmospheric processes to gaseous elemental mercury (GEM), gaseous oxidized mercury (GOM), particulate bound mercury (PBM) and mercury deposition in eastern China were quantified using the Community Multi-scale Air Quality (CMAQ-Hg) modeling system run with a nested domain. Natural sources (NAT) and six categories of anthropogenic mercury sour...

Recently, a newly designed type of energy-input extraction column, agitated-pulsed column (APC), has been achieved high mass-transfer efficiency due to the small-size droplets and dispersed-phase holdup. In view lack feasible population-balance-model (PBM) kernel functions in APC, parameter optimization is conducted by simplified PBM method. Then optimized are implemented computational fluid-dy...

Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy employs light at red and near-infrared wavelengths to modulate biological activity. The therapeutic effect of PBM for the treatment or management several diseases injuries has gained significant popularity among researchers clinicians, especially oral complications cancer therapy. This entry focuses on current evidence use a frequent complication due therapy—tas...

Stratil P., Kubáň V., Fojtová J. (2008): Comparison of the phenolic content and total antioxidant activity in wines as determined by spectrophotometric methods. Czech J. Food Sci., 26: 242–253. Folin-Ciocalteu reagent (FCM) and Price and Butler method (PBM) were used for spectrophotometric determination of the total content of phenolic compounds in 29 wines (8 white, 21 red). The average conten...

Platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule (PECAM)-1 has been implicated in leukocyte migration through the perivascular basement membrane (PBM) though the mechanisms involved are unclear. The present results demonstrate that the ability of alpha(6) integrins to mediate neutrophil migration through the PBM is PECAM-1 dependent, a response associated with PECAM-1-mediated increased expression o...
