Inter-individual responses of post-exercise hypotension in older adults with hypertension: An exploratory analysis of different exercise modalities
Background: Various physical exercise modalities can acutely reduce blood pressure (BP). However, not all individuals respond similarly after an exercise session.Purpose: To measure inter-individual variations in 24-h BP after a single bout of various exercise modalities in older adults with…

Isometric handgrip exercise impacts only on very short-term blood pressure variability, but not on short-term blood pressure variability in hypertensive individuals: A randomized controlled trial
Background: The effect of a single isometric handgrip exercise (IHG) on blood pressure (BP) variability (BPV) has not been addressed. This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effect of IHG vs. sham on BPV and BP.Methods: Hypertensive patients using up to two BP-lowering medications were…

New Directions in the Study and Treatment of Metastatic Cancer
Traditional cancer therapy has relied on a strictly cytotoxic approach that views non-metastatic and metastatic tumor cells as identical in terms of molecular biology and sensitivity to therapeutic intervention. Mounting evidence suggests that, in fact, non-metastatic and metastatic tumor cells…

Heterocyclic Analogs of Thioflavones: Synthesis and NMR Spectroscopic Investigations
The synthesis of several hitherto unknown heterocyclic ring systems derived from thioflavone is described. Coupling of various o-haloheteroarenecarbonyl chlorides with phenylacetylene gives 1-(o-haloheteroaryl)-3-phenylprop-2-yn-1-ones, which were treated with NaSH in refluxing ethanol to yield the…

Glaciogenic seeding-induced hole-punch clouds and their sensitivity to the clouds' background state
Hole-punch clouds are a visual representation of ice crystal formation and growth as well as their interactions with the liquid phase via the Wegener–Bergeron–Findeisen process. Their appearance is usually associated with an aircraft passing through a liquid cloud layer. However, they can also…

Putting the spotlight on small cloud droplets with SmHOLIMO – a new holographic imager for in situ measurements of clouds
The microstructure of liquid and mixed-phase clouds is characterized by the cloud droplet size distribution (CDSD), which influences the cloud evolution and its interaction with radiation. However, state-of-the-art cloud probes still face challenges because they require either platforms that move…

Quality of life in patients with stable coronary artery disease submitted to percutaneous, surgical, and medical therapies: a cohort study
Abstract Background Clinical, surgical, and percutaneous strategies similarly prevent major cardiovascular events in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). The possibility that these strategies have differential effects on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has been debated…

The autotaxin-lysophosphatidic acid pathway emerges as a therapeutic target to prevent liver cancer
Using transcriptome meta-analysis, we recently identified the autotaxin (ATX)-lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) pathway as a regulator of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk in human cirrhosis patients. Pharmacological targeting of this pathway reduced fibrosis progression and HCC development in animals…

Diagnosis of Syphilis in Paraffin-Embedded Skin Biopsies: Comparison of Treponema pallidum Immunohistochemistry and Polymerase Chain Reaction in Primary and Secondary Stages of Disease
Syphilis remains one of the most prevalent sexually transmitted infections. Serology is the diagnostic gold standard, but skin biopsies aid in ambiguous cases. Treponemas can be detected in tissue by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR); however, their comparative…
