The availability of an adequate blood supply is a critical public health need. An influenza epidemic or another crisis affecting population mobility could create a critical donor shortage, which could profoundly impact blood availability. We develope

Publikováno v: American Journal of Hypertension. 21:1337-1342

BACKGROUND The mechanism linking obesity with its downstream complications is poorly understood. Accumulating evidence suggests that insufficient oxidative capacity plays a central role in the development of insulin resistance and, perhaps, hypertens

Hepatic magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is increasingly being applied to many areas of patient-oriented liver research (1). Proton MRS (1H MRS) can quantify triglyceride content in the liver (2) and has become well-established for this purpose

Background The objective of this study is to compare lactate levels between users and non-users of diabetes medications under the hypothesis that the level of lactate is a marker of oxidative capacity. Methods The cross-sectional data of 493 particip
