Background According to epidemiological studies, about 2-4% of the population in industrialized countries suffer from food allergies. The symptoms can range from minor skin rash to life threatening anaphylaxis and at present no effective therapy is available. Strict avoidance of the offending food is therefore mandatory for allergic individuals. Nut allergens are regarded highly problematic, be...

Proteomics and immunohistochemistry were used to reveal tumor heterogeneity among urothelial papillomas (UPs) with the long term goal of predicting their biological potential in terms of outcome. First, we identified proteins that were deregulated in invasive fresh lesions as compared with normal urothelium, and thereafter we immunostained UPs with a panel of antibodies against some of the mark...

In this paper, a simpler implementation of the well-known droop method for the control of parallel Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems is presented. In this method, in the power-sharing control scheme, the output current is calculated by software without the need for a current sensor, resulting in a simpler and cheaper structure. By doing so, the number of feedback sensors is reduced fro...

A double-blind phase III malaria prevention trial was conducted in two refugee camps using pre-manufactured insecticide-treated plastic sheeting (ITPS) or untreated polyethylene sheeting (UPS) randomly deployed to defined sectors of each camp. In Largo camp the ITPS or UPS was attached to inner walls and ceilings of shelters, whereas in Tobanda the ITPS or UPS was used to line only the ceiling ...

This study was designed to analyze upper extremity and core muscle activation performing push-ups under different stability conditions and body positions. Trained university male students (n= 29) performed 3 push-ups each under stable conditions and using suspension device (AirFit Trainer ProTM) with their hands at 2 different heights (i.e., 10 and 65 cm). Push-up speed was controlled using a m...

Mutated intracellular huntingtin is widely expressed in tissues of Huntington's disease (HD) patients. Intraneuronal nuclear protein aggregates of mutant huntingtin are present in HD brains, suggesting a dysfunction of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS). Because many cells and tissues can cope with the abnormal gene effects while others dysfunction and die, we determined gene-induced effects...

The study purpose was to identify the effects of a combination plyometric exercises in increasing leg and arm power abilities volleyball athletes. Materials methods. Forty students were involved this study. They who active practicing volleyball, then they divided into four groups 10 each, namely (1) Squat thrust jumps clap push-ups, (2) lateral (3) Rope push-ups; (4) push-ups. Then practiced pl...
