13. Effects of Hyperthyroidism on Contractility and Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger Activity in the Isolated Papillary Muscle of Rats
Abstract Background: Hyperthyroidism (Hy) is an endocrine disorder, in which the thyroid hormones markedly alter the cardiac function. Increased myocardial contractility and cardiac output, improvement in diastolic relaxation, changes in electrical activity, increments in ventricular mass, and arrhythmias have been reported. However, the influences of thyro

14. Changes in late-latency auditory evoked potentials after tinnitus suppression using auditory stimulation
Abstract Objective: Tinnitus can result from auditory system reorganization due to neural activity dysfunctions. Auditory stimulation can cause temporary or persistent tinnitus alleviation by altering the neural generators. The present study investigated the changes in Late-Latency Auditory Evoked Potentials (LLAEPs) after tinnitus suppression using auditor

17. Obesity-associated Pathways of Anthocyanins
Abstract Anthocyanins have a great potential for human health, as a sub-group of phenolic compounds. Interactions of anthocyanin involved in digestion and thus in obesity consist of inhibition of pancreatic lipase, regulation of lipolysis and lipogenesis, activation of an activated protein kinase enzyme, controlling of digestion hormones (leptin, insulin, gh

18. Impacts of grade configuration on Brazilian student outcomes
Abstract In this paper we evaluate the impact of grade span configuration on student outcomes. We build a model which shows that the more homogeneous the cohort of students the higher the share of them which achieves the minimum level of academic performance required in an exam. We then test this theoretical finding by comparing performances of 5th-grade stu

19. COVID-19 and obesity: the meeting of two pandemics
ABSTRACT COVID-19 and obesity are two pandemic diseases that the world is currently facing. Both activate the immune system and mediate inflammation. A sequence of disease phases in patients with severe COVID-19 results in a cytokine storm, which amplifies the subclinical inflammation that already exists in patients with obesity. Pro-inflammatory cytokines a

23. Silicon nutrition counteracts salt-induced damage associated with changes in biochemical responses in apple
ABSTRACT Salt stress is an environmental challenge that adversely influences plant responses. Silicon (Si) nutrition plays critical roles in plant tolerance to salt stress. Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.), a salt sensitive fruit species, was used in the present experiment to investigate the influences of Si on salt stress as well as on alterations of biochemi

24. Effects and mechanisms of water-soluble Semen cassiae polysaccharide on retinitis pigmentosa in rats
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of water-soluble Semen cassiae polysaccharide (SCP) on retinitis pigmentosa (RP) in rats. One hundred rats were randomly divided into control, model, and 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg SCP groups. The 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg SCP groups were treated with 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg SCP for 5 days, respectivel
