C6 peptide enzyme immunoassay in Lyme borreliosis serology
<p>The cut-off values used in C6 peptide-based enzyme immunoassay (EIA), a widely used test in Lyme borreliosis (LB) serology, have not been thoroughly analysed. The objective of the study was to examine the performance ...
Gyrocardiography: A New Non-invasive Monitoring Method for the Assessment of Cardiac Mechanics and the Estimation of Hemodynamic Variables
Gyrocardiography (GCG) is a new non-invasive technique for assessing heart motions by using a sensor of angular motion - gyroscope - attached to the skin of the chest. In this study, we conducted simultaneous recordings ...
Genetic architecture of human plasma lipidome and its link to cardiovascular disease
Understanding genetic architecture of plasma lipidome could provide better insights into lipid metabolism and its link to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Here, we perform genome-wide association analyses of 141 lipid species ...
Genomic prediction of alcohol-related morbidity and mortality
While polygenic risk scores (PRS) have been shown to predict many diseases and risk factors, the potential of genomic prediction in harm caused by alcohol use has not yet been extensively studied. Here, we built a novel ...
Long-Lasting T Cell Responses in BNT162b2 COVID-19 mRNA Vaccinees and COVID-19 Convalescent Patients
<p>The emergence of novel variants of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has made it more difficult to prevent the virus from spreading despite available vaccines. Reports of breakthrough ...
Sydän- ja verisuonitautien ehkäisy kannattaa aloittaa jo vauvasta - STRIP-tutkimus näyttää miksi ja miten
Satunnaistetussa STRIP-tutkimuksessa 562 tervettä lasta sai tyydyttyneen rasvan saannin vähentämiseen tähtäävää ravitsemusneuvontaa kahdeksan kuukauden iästä alkaen 20 vuoden ikään asti, ja 545 saman ikäistä lasta seurattiin ...
Early B-cell Factor1 (Ebf1) promotes early osteoblast differentiation but suppresses osteoblast function
<p>Early B cell factor 1 (Ebf1) is a transcription factor that regulates B cell, neuronal cell and adipocyte differentiation. We and others have shown that Ebf1 is expressed in osteoblasts and that global deletion of Ebf1 ...
Therapeutic Antibody Against Phosphorylcholine Preserves Coronary Function and Attenuates Vascular 18F-FDG Uptake in Atherosclerotic Mice
<p>This study showed that treatment with a therapeutic monoclonal immunoglobulin-G1 antibody against phosphorylcholine on oxidized phospholipids preserves coronary flow reserve and attenuates atherosclerotic inflammation ...
Physical Activity Associates with Muscle Insulin Sensitivity Postbariatric Surgery
Purpose<p>Bariatric surgery is considered as an effective therapeutic strategy for weight loss in severe obesity. Remission of type 2 diabetes is often achieved following the surgery. We investigated whether increase in ...
Assessment of myocardial viability with [15O]water PET: A validation study in experimental myocardial infarction
<p>Background: Assessment of myocardial viability is often needed in patients with chest pain and reduced ejection fraction. We evaluated the performance of reduced resting MBF, perfusable tissue fraction (PTF), and ...
