PURPOSE: The study's aim was to investigate the dose-dependent effect of sulfation and glucuronidation on intestinal absorption of resveratrol, a dietary constituent found in grapes and various medical plants. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The intestinal epithelial membrane transport kinetics and metabolism of resveratrol (1…

BACKGROUND: A storyline in a grounded theory study plays two important roles: an analytical tool and a research product. Using more than one language in a study affects the research, including the dissemination of its findings. Very little literature discusses how to develop and disseminate a storyline. AIM: This pape…

Several authors of standard obstetric texts state that engagement occurs before the onset of labor in a majority of nulliparas at term, and failure of the fetal head to engage in early labor is a greater indicator for operative birth. A pilot clinical descriptive study was done at University Hospital, University of Med…

BACKGROUND: Longitudinal cohort studies are highly valued in epidemiologic research for their ability to establish exposure-disease associations through known temporal sequences. A major challenge in cohort studies is recruiting individuals representative of the targeted sample population to ensure the generalizability…

This study aims to present the correlation between sunlight exposure and Covid-19 statuses in Jakarta, Indonesia. The secondary data analysis was derived from surveillance data for Covid-19 from government authorities, including the Ministry of Health, the Meteorological, Climatological, and Geophysical Agency, and the…

At a nursing home ward for demented patients, selections of dinner music were played during three periods of 2 weeks. At the end of the study was a control period. The reactions of five patients to three different types of music were registered by video observations. This study showed that the patients were affected by…

The present study explored the characteristics of students with a marked need for disciplinary crisis intervention (a modified time-out procedure). The study's sample consisted of 62 adolescents enrolled at a school serving the severely emotionally disturbed. Data on student background characteristics (IQ, academic ach…

PURPOSE: Studies into the preferences of patients and relatives regarding informed consent for intensive care unit (ICU) research are ongoing. We investigated the impact of a study's invasiveness on the choice of who should give consent and on the modalities of informed consent. METHODS: At ICU discharge, randomized p…

BACKGROUND: All the scholarly papers on "Job Satisfaction" and "Motivation" published from the year 2014 to 2023 constitute the database for conducting a scientometric analysis. METHODS: The types of records in the literature, including authors, nations, keywords, references, and citation counts, were studied using sc…

This study addresses a crucial knowledge gap by investigating the impact of intraocular pressure (IOP) on the wobbling characteristics of the crystalline lens in an ex vivo setting. It utilizes previous validated computational porcine eye models, which offer anatomical and physiological similarities to the human eye. T…

Developing countries face numerous barriers to conducting effective and efficient ethics reviews of international collaborative research. In addition to potentially overlooking important scientific and ethical considerations, inadequate or insufficiently trained ethics committees may insist on unwarranted changes to pr…

BACKGROUND: Screening for HPV has led to significant reductions in cervical cancer deaths in high-income countries. However, the same results have not been achieved in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). HPV self-sampling is a novel approach that could improve screening rates. METHODS: This study's objective is…

In order to provide quality and cost-effective health care, hospitals have used a variety of organizational models. Chain hospitals are one type of organization and service delivery model. Based on the diversity, multiplicity, and ambiguous nature of concepts related to chain hospitals, this study is an attempt to expl…

In arid and semi-arid regions, freshwater is mainly acquired from groundwater. Over the years, human activities have reduced the latter's quality, making it a threat to health. Heavy metal pollution index (HPI), metal index (MI), groundwater quality index (GWQI), sodium absorption ratio (SAR), magnesium ratio (MR), Kel…

The degradation of damaged proteins takes place via two major proteolytic pathways: the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy. However, since it is unclear how these two proteolytic pathways contribute to the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), we investigated the switching mechanism from UPS…

Mutation of breast cancer 2, early onset (BRCA2) has been identified as a vital risk factor for esophageal cancer (EC). To date, several proteins have been reported as BRCA2-interacting proteins and are associated with multiple biological processes. This study's aim was to identify a novel interactive protein of BRCA2…

This article describes our experience participating in a multisite collaborative study involving frontline nurses and operational failures (OFs). We encountered a range of challenges conducting the study as proposed by the study's coordinating center (CC), which hindered our ability to meet our goals and objectives. We…

The objectives of the Smoking and Nicotine Dependence Awareness (SNICAS) study are to provide nationally representative data on the prevalence of smoking and smoking dependence of primary care patients and the frequency in which smoking cessation interventions are offered and provided in primary care. With the inclusio…

OBJECTIVES: Novel biomarkers of diabetic peripheral neuropathy provide potentially useful information for early identification and treatment of diabetic neuropathy, ultimately serving to reduce the burden of disease. This study was designed to investigate the potential associations of serum S100B and S100P (calcium-mod…

PURPOSE: Peptide-centric machine learning enhanced (PCML) data-independent acquisition tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS-DIA) matches low-abundance MS fragmentation spectra to in silico predicted peptide spectra deduced from libraries of customized protein sequences. The study's goal was to determine proteomic depth o…
