P-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy in skeletal muscle: Experts' consensus recommendations
(NMR in Biomedicine, 2020-02)
Skeletal muscle phosphorus-31 P-31 MRS is the oldest MRS methodology to be applied to in vivo metabolic research. The technical requirements of P-31 MRS in skeletal muscle depend on the research question, and to assess ...
Post-GWAS analysis of six substance use traits improves the identification and functional interpretation of genetic risk loci
(Drug and Alcohol Dependence, 2020-01)
Background: Little is known about the functional mechanisms through which genetic loci associated with substance use traits ascertain their effect. This study aims to identify and functionally annotate loci associated with ...
Effects of fibre-rich rye milling fraction on the functional properties and nutritional quality of wholemeal rye bread
(Journal of Food Science and Technology-Mysore, 2020-01)
The goal was to assess the effects of partial replacement of wholemeal rye flour with 30%, 40% and 50% of the high-fibre rye flour (HFRF) on nutritional quality and sensory and physicochemical characteristics of breads. ...
Life-Expectancy Disparities Among Adults With HIV in the United States and Canada: The Impact of a Reduction in Drug- and Alcohol-Related Deaths Using the Lives Saved Simulation Model
(American Journal of Epidemiology, 2019-12)
Improvements in life expectancy among people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH) receiving antiretroviral treatment in the United States and Canada might differ among key populations. Given the difference in ...
Longitudinal Antibody Responses in People Who Inject Drugs Infected With Similar Human Immunodeficiency Virus Strains
(Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020-03-01)
Background. Multiple factors influence the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody response produced during natural infection, leading to responses that can vary in specificity, strength, and breadth.
