In its essence, tea is an infusion of Camellia sinensis leaves and it is the most widely consumed beverage in the world, aside water. Animal and epidemiological studies have associated green tea consumption with several health benefits, which include hypocholesterolemic effect and anti-inflammatory activity. In this study catechins levels of green tea and its effect on the lipid profile of huma...

In spite of their anticarcinogenic potential, the effect of coffee and green tea consumption on the risk of liver cancer has not been clarified prospectively in consideration of hepatitis C (HCV) and B virus (HBV) infection. We examined whether coffee and green tea consumption was associated with a reduced risk of liver cancer by hepatitis virus infection status in the Japan Public Health Cente...

The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between attitudes and behaviors administrative staff four Baku universities toward consumption environmentally friendly products. used 536 consumer questionnaires belonging different socio-economic demographic groups. survey evaluated factors that affected purchasing decisions, purchase intentions, awareness, green products respondents liv...

OBJECTIVE To examine the association between the consumption of green tea, coffee and caffeine and depressive symptoms. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. Consumption of green tea and coffee was ascertained with a validated dietary questionnaire and the amount of caffeine intake was estimated from these beverages. Depressive symptoms were measured using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depress...

Consumption of green products is growing rapidly in the United States. We assessed the extent to which this consumption is motivated by a desire to promote societal-level change in corporate practices that affect the climate, and posit a social–cognitive model in which people’s global warming beliefs and consumer activism beliefs predict their green purchasing goals, behavior, and opinion leade...

Prostate cancer (PCa) now remains the 2nd most frequently diagnosed cancer. In recent years, chemoprevention for PCa becomes a possible concept. Especially, many phytochemicals rich foods are suggested to lower the risk of cancer. Among these foods, green tea is considered as effective prevention for various cancers. However, clinical trials and previous meta-analyses on the relationship betwee...

The dramatic growth in the demand for data centers is being accompanied by increases in energy consumption and operating costs. To deal with this problem, we have begun to research and develop a new system architecture called the “NextGeneration Green Data Center.” Our aim through this architecture is to demonstrate a level of performance that exceeds what can be achieved by energy savings and ...

Catechins in green tea have been shown to reduce a risk of coronary heart disease in epidemiological studies. Also, it has been reported catechins have hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects. Then, we investigated the effects of ground green tea drinking on the susceptibility of plasma and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) to the oxidation by CuSO4 ex vivo, and also evaluated daily food consumption ...

Nowadays, the growing demand for supporting multiple applications causes to use multiple IPs onto the chip. In fact, finding truly scalable communication architecture will be a critical concern. To this end, the Networks-on-Chip (NoC) paradigm has emerged as a promising solution to on-chip communication challenges within the silicon-based electronics. Many of today’s NoC architectures are based...
