Abstract Background Sub-Saharan Africa is predicted to have the steepest increase in the prevalence of diabetes in the next 25 years.The latest Mozambican population-based STEPS survey (STEPS 2005) estimated a 2.9% prevalence of diabetes in the adult population aged 25-64 years.We aimed to assess the change in prevalence, awareness, and management
Posttranslational Modifications of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor and Cardiovascular Aging
During aging, the cardiovascular system is especially prone to a decline in function and to life-expectancy limiting diseases.Cardiovascular aging is associated with increased arterial stiffness and vasoconstriction as well as left ventricular hypertrophy and reduced diastolic function.Pathological changes include endothelial dysfunction, atheroscl
Gender differences in cerebral metabolism for color processing in mice: A PET/MRI Study.
Color processing is a central component of mammalian vision.Gender-related differences of color processing revealed by non-invasive functional transcranial Doppler ultrasound suggested right hemisphere pattern for blue/yellow chromatic opponency by men, Mirror Ornament and a left hemisphere pattern by women.The present study measured the accumulati
Fuzzy Closed Filters in Bounded BE-Algebras
In this paper we use the method of fuzzification of crisp set to fuzzy set as Drain Valve Diaphragm extension of crisp set to fuzzy set.In particular the concepts of fuzzy closed filters of a bounded BE-algebra are introduced; and also some related properties are investigated.As a result a new concept of fuzzy closed filters of a bounded BE-algebra
Behavioral training promotes multiple adaptive processes following acute hearing loss
The brain possesses a remarkable capacity to compensate for changes in inputs resulting from a range of sensory impairments.Developmental studies GENMAI MISO of sound localization have shown that adaptation to asymmetric hearing loss can be achieved either by reinterpreting altered spatial cues or by relying more on those cues that remain intact.Ad
