Nutritional geometry has advanced our understanding of how macronutrients (e.g., proteins and carbohydrates) influence the expression of life history traits and their corresponding trade-offs. For example, recent work has revealed that reproduction and immune function in male decorated crickets are optimized at very different proteincarbohydrate…[Read more]

In this review article, we focus on results derived from basic studies that have attempted to elucidate the immune modulatory mechanisms of liver constituent cells and clinical trials that induced immune tolerance after liver transplantation by utilizing the immune-privilege potential of the liver.We investigated if corilagin can ameliorate or…[Read more]

XPS analysis demonstrated different surface compositions of corroded disks in pH 10 and pH 2. Si4+, K+, Na+, Al3+, and Ca2+ were detected on the surface of corroded pH 10 disks, whereas a Si4+ and P5+-rich surface formed on corroded pH 2 disks. SEM results demonstrated rougher surfaces for corroded disks in cycling conditions and pH 2 constant…[Read more]

Comparing statin initiation with no initiation, the 10-year risk differences (95% confidence interval) were -0.1% (-2.3% to 1.8%) for dementia and 0.3% (-2.7% to 3.3%) for dementia or death. Comparing sustained statin use vs no use, the 10-year risk differences were -2.2% (-5.2% to 1.6%) for dementia and -5.1% (-10.5% to -1.1%) for dementia or…[Read more]
