WWI showed positive associations with abdominal fat mass and negative associations with abdominal muscle mass, which likely reflects the abdominal compositional changes with aging in a multi-ethnic population.

AbstractNon-stereotypical gender role (NSGR) representations have been increasing gradually over time in advertising, where male celebrities endorse traditionally or stereotypically female-oriented products and vice versa. This research proposes that the overall effect of NSGR advertising on consumer evaluation is composed of two opposing effects. This study investigates the conditions in which either the positive or the negative effects are likely to prevail. Specifically, this study identifies

<b><i>Background:</i></b> The glycemia risk index (GRI) is a novel composite continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metric that gives greater weight to hypoglycemia than to hyperglycemia and to extreme hypo/hyperglycemia over less extreme hypo/hyperglycemia. This study aimed at validating the effectiveness of GRI and at comparing it with time in range (TIR) in assessing glycemic quality in clinical practice. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A total of 524 ninety-day CGM tracings of 194 insulin-treated adults

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of electromagnetic field radiation on the sperm count, morphology, histological structure of testes, and on hormonal level of rats exposed to microwave radiation. Thirty male Sprague- Dawley rats (4 weeks of age) were exposed to a 2.45 GHz EMF for 1 hour or 2 hours a day. A sham-exposed group served as the control. The whole body average specific absorption rate (SAR) is 1.41W/Kg and electric field intensity is 60.1mV/m. Germ cell apopto

Purpose: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) using bipolar electrocautery and 0.9% saline is a new technology in the field of surgery for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This randomized prospective study was conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of the Gyrus Plasmasect loop bipolar TURP and the conventional monopolar TURP for the treatment of BPH. Materials and Methods: This study included 50 patients who were randomized 1:1 to undergo bipolar or monopolar TURP from August

<b><i>Background:</i></b> The glycemia risk index (GRI) is a new composite metric derived from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data to assess the quality of glycemia. This study investigates the association between the GRI and albuminuria. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Professional CGM and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) data from 866 individuals with type 2 diabetes were retrospectively reviewed. Albuminuria and macroalbuminuria were defined as one or more UACR measurements ≥30 and ≥300

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a progressive disease in which it is challenging to achieve long-term durable glycemic control. However, intensive glycemic control is crucial for preventing diabetes-related complications. Previous studies showed that monotherapy with a stepwise add-on approach was seldom effective for long-term durable glycemic control. Combination therapy, which refers to the use of two or more drugs to control hyperglycemia, has multiple benefits, including the ability to target a va

Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)-lowering therapy that increases LDL receptor expression in several ways robustly reduces the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, a substantial risk of CVD still remains after intensive LDL-C reduction, which requires new treatment modalities for dyslipidemia and cardiovascular risk management. Triglycerides (TGs) and triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) have received attention as indicators of residual cardiovascular risk an

Radical cystectomy, which is performed to treat muscle-invasive bladder tumors, is among the most difficult urological surgical procedures and puts patients at risk of intraoperative blood loss and transfusion. Fluid management via stroke volume variation (SVV) is associated with reduced intraoperative blood loss. Therefore, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of SVV-guided fluid therapy for reducing blood loss and transfusion requirements in patients undergoing radical cystectomy.This study in

Statin therapy duration is as important as or more crucial than statin intensity or achieved LDL-C level for the reduction of cardiovascular risk in T2D patients. The concept of "longer is better" regarding statin therapy should be considered in clinical practice.
