Renal Function Decline in Recipients and Donors of Kidney Grafts حسب Bahous, Sola Aoun

"…Results: Decline in renal function was estimated at 1-year post-transplantation and annually thereafter (median follow-up 8 years, range 3.6-18.3), as the mean of the annualized decrease in the glomerular filtration rate. In recipients, filtration rate decreased by 4.8 ± 19.7 ml/min/1.73 m2 the first post-transplant year and at a yearly rate of 2.2 ± 3.8 ml/min/1.73 m2 thereafter. …"

Dynamic Change in Insulin Resistance Induced by Free Fatty Acids Is Unchanged Though Insulin Sensitivity Improves Following Endurance Exercise in PCOS حسب Myint Myint Aye (6404327)

"…<h3>Background</h3><p dir="ltr">Insulin resistance (IR) is the hallmark of PCOS and it is known that exercise may decrease it. What is unknown is whether exercise may mechanistically alter the underlying IR, attenuating the dynamic lipid induced IR in insulin resistant subjects.…"

Optimizing the number of players and training bout durations in soccer small‐sided games: Effects on mood balance and technical performance حسب Zouhaier Farhani (22330693)

"…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">The data demonstrated that the continuous‐bout‐duration (1 × 12 min) of 4vs4 and 3vs3 SSGs was characterized by a significant decrease in total mood disturbance (TMD) compared to 2 × 6 min and 3 × 4 min (4vs4:<i>p</i> < 0.01; 3vs3:<i>p</i> < 0.001). …"

Hepato‐splanchnic fluxes during exercise in patients with cirrhosis—a pilot study حسب Stefanos Volianitis (22155835)

"…Arterial ammonia increased in parallel to lactate from 47.3 (40.1–54.5) to 144.4 (120.5–168.3) μmol/L (<i>P</i> < 0.05), although hepatic ammonia uptake increased from 19.5 (12.4–26.6) to 69.5 (46.5–92.5) μmol/min (<i>P</i> < 0.05).
