Acute Human Lethal Toxicity of Agricultural Pesticides: A Prospective Cohort Study by Andrew H. Dawson (238885)

“…Targeted pesticide restrictions in Sri Lanka over the last 20 years have reduced pesticide deaths by 50% without decreasing agricultural output. However, regulatory decisions have thus far not been based on the human toxicity of formulated agricultural pesticides but on the surrogate of rat toxicity using pure unformulated pesticides. …”

Statins and Hip Fracture Prevention – A Population Based Cohort Study in Women by Arja Helin-Salmivaara (123653)

“…When women with poor (<40%), moderate (40 to 80%), and good adherence (≥80%) to statins were compared to those with good adherence to hypertension drugs (≥80%) or to the population cohort, the protective effect associated with statin use attenuated with the decreasing level of adherence.</p> <h3>Conclusions</h3><p>5-year exposure to statins is associated with a reduced risk of low-energy hip fracture in women aged 50–80 years without prior hospitalizations for fractures.…”

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for muscle invasive bladder cancer: a nationwide investigation on survival by Beth Russell (5095202)

“…This study calculated 5-year survival and risk of bladder cancer (BC)-specific and overall death by Cox proportional hazard models for the study cohort and a propensity score (PS) matched cohort.</p> <p><b>Results:</b> Those who had received NAC had higher 5-year survival proportions and decreased risk of both overall and BC specific death (HR = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.52–0.97 and HR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.48–0.94), respectively, as compared to patients who did not receive NAC. …”

PrA inhibited DC maturation responding to LPS and diminished DC-mediated T cell allostimulation. by Maomao Zhang (393240)

“…The highest dose induced a significant decrease in viable DC count, so only 5 nM and 20 nM were used in subsequent experiments. …”

“…MALDI-IMS showed that the ratio of ATP to PC (16:0/18:1) in group IV was significantly decreased at 24 h after the operation. Results are means ± standard deviation of five independent experiments. …”

Data_Sheet_1_Effect of a High Fat Diet vs. High Carbohydrate Diets With Different Glycemic Indices on Metabolic Parameters in Male Endurance Athletes: A Pilot Trial.docx by Denise Zdzieblik (12399730)

“…The purpose of this trial was to investigate the effect of a 4-week high fat low carbohydrate (HFLC-G: ≥65% high glycemic carbohydrates per day; n = 9) vs. high carbohydrate low glycemic (LGI-G: ≥65% low glycemic carbohydrates daily; n = 10) or high glycemic (HGI-G: ≥65% fat, ≤ 50 g carbohydrates daily; n = 9) diet on fat and carbohydrate metabolism at rest and during exercise in 28 male athletes. …”

Measuring and Reducing Chemical Spills by Students: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Providing Feedback by Aimilia M. Tsokou (7272506)

“…A Hodges–Lehmann estimator for the median change in volume spilled during the second experiment due to providing feedback on spillage during first experiment was a 50% decrease in volume spilled (95% confidence range: 0 to 80% decrease, Mann–Whitney <i>U</i> test <i>p</i> = 0.05). …”

Primers for qPCR. by Kaitao Zhao (3617825)
