In treating individuals with disordered eating (DE) concerns, such as excessive dieting, bingeing, and purging, evidence shows that emotion/behavior regulation plays a principal role in the nature and treatment of DE. Body image flexibility (BIF) is a fairly new concept that reflects adaptive regulation processes in the context of DE. The purpose of this cross-sectional study is to investigate ...

CAPNS1 is essential for stability and function of the ubiquitous calcium-dependent proteases micro- and milli-calpain. Upon inhibition of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase by 100 nM thapsigargin, both micro-calpain and autophagy are activated in human U2OS osteosarcoma cells in a CAPNS1-dependent manner. As reported for other autophagy triggers, thapsigargin treatment induces Golgi fragment...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The band-importance function (BIF) refers to a value characterizing the relative importance of different frequencies to speech intelligibility. The purpose of this study was to derive the BIF for the Korean standard sentence lists for adults (KS-SL-A). SUBJECTS AND METHODS In this study, sentences from the KS-SL-A were used as the speech material. Twenty-six normal-h...

Six strains of lactic acid producing bacteria (LAB) were incubated (1 x 10(8)cfu/ml) with genotoxic faecal water from a human subject. HT29 human adenocarcinoma cells were then challenged with the resultant samples and DNA damage measured using the single cell gel electrophoresis (comet) assay. The LAB strains investigated were Bifidobacterium sp. 420, Bifidobacterium Bb12, Lactobacillus planta...

BACKGROUND It has been reported that bifocal pacing (BiF) in the right ventricle might be an alternative to unsuccessful left ventricular lead implantation. This case report presents an assessment of the clinical and hemodynamic parameters during a three month follow-up in patients implanted with right ventricular BiF. METHODS Eight patients who underwent unsuccessful left ventricular lead im...

AIMS This work was undertaken to study the feasibility and the characteristics of a fermented product made of goat milk, using a mixed starter culture of Bifidobacterium animalis and Lactobacillus acidophilus under controlled conditions, and to determine their survival in the fermented milk during refrigerated storage. METHODS AND RESULTS Goat milk was inoculated with Lact. acidophilus and Bi...

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are an overlooked risk factor for behavioural, mental and physical health disparities in children with intellectual disabilities (ID) borderline functioning (BIF). To gain insight into the presence of 10 original Wave II ACEs family context variables a convenience sample ID BIF Dutch residential care. 134 case-files (n = 82) 52) were analysed quantitatively....

BACKGROUND Borderline intellectual functioning (BIF) is defined as a "health meta-condition… characterized by various cognitive dysfunctions associated with an intellectual quotient (IQ) between 71 and 85 which determines a deficit in the individual's functioning both in the restriction of activities and in the limitation of social participation". It can be caused by many factors, including a d...

Nowadays pedestrian detection plays an important role in security and driving assistance. Detecting moving object is complex, and some of the detection methods are comparatively ineffective and slow. In relation to human detection it is very useful to combine independent information sources, such as appearance and motion. To achieve acceptable detection performance, we propose inter-frames diff...

Magnetite is a representative ore mineral found in various deposits. The trace element composition of deposits controlled by several physiochemical factors such as temperature, pressure, and oxygen or sulfur fugacity. chemical behavior Germanium (Ge) distinct different environments. Consequently, the patterns Ge magnetite can be used to infer provenance conditions. This study focuses on from Wu...
