hyperglycemia and gestational diabetes mellitus are complications of pregnancy. both mothers and newborns are typically at increased risk for complications. this study sought to determine effect of zinc supplementation on serum glucose levels, insulin resistance, energy and macronutrients intakes in pregnant women with impaired glucose tolerance.in this clinical trial 44 pregnant women with imp...

integrated energy systems utilizing renewable sources are sustainable and environmentally substitutes for conventional fossil-fired energy systems. a new multigeneration plant with two inputs, such as biomass and solar energy, and four useful outputs, such as cooling, heating, power, and distilled water, is presented and investigated in this paper. the proposed system includes evacuated tube so...

cities are a focal point of energy consumption. accessibility to public services has a significant impact on the balance of public and private energy uses, which are two sectors that are directly affected by urban planning (the third is industrial). this paper establishes the relative magnitudes of service accessibility enhancement on urban energy efficiency in comparison to other factors, and ...

a series of two experiments was conducted to study the optimum dietary protein level and protein to energy ratio of lemon fin barb hybrid larvae. in experiment 1, five isocaloric diets (4700 kcal per kg) ranging from 40 to 60% protein in 5% increments were fed to triplicate groups of lemon fin barb hybrid larvae (initial weight: 0.10 ± 0.01 mg per fish) for 21 days. weight gain of fish was prop...

conclusions decreasing barriers to physical activity among the elderly causes physical activities to increase; therefore, energy expenditure is increased. decreasing social and environmental problems for the elderly is effective in increasing physical activity and energy expenditure. results the average age among the study population was 67.6 ± 6.8 years median, and the interquartile range (iqr...
