The superiority of prognostic value of blood pressure (BP) measured at central aorta (CBP) over conventional brachial BP measured by cuff-based BP monitors has reignited the development of new noninvasive techniques for estimating CBP. The present study validated the accuracy of CBP measured by a newly developed stand-alone CBP monitor. The CBP monitor provided readings of brachial systolic BP (SBP), brachial diastolic BP (DBP), central SBP, and central pulse pressure (PP). Brachial PP and central DBP ...

Age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and function (sarcopenia) are associated with poor health outcomes and an economic burden on health care services. An appropriate diet and physical activity have been proposed for prevention and treatment of sarcopenia. Nevertheless, the effects on medical service utilization and costs remain unclear. This study determined the effects of SMM in conjunction with diet quality and physical activity on medical service utilization and expenditure in community- ...

The International Panel on the Diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis first incorporated abnormalities demonstrated by brain and spinal cord MRI into the diagnostic criteria (McDonald criteria) for multiple sclerosis (MS), which were later revised in 2005. In 2006, Swanton and colleagues modified the MRI criteria to simplify and speed the diagnosis.The purpose of this study was to compare the ability of two sets of criteria (the revised McDonald MRI criteria and Swanton's modified criteria) to predict conversion ...

Abstract Objective The association between hyperuricemia and cardiovascular events has been documented in high‐risk groups, but is still undetermined in general populations, especially Chinese. This study assessed the temporal association between serum uric acid level, hyperuricemia, and cardiovascular mortality. Methods A prospective cohort study of 41,879 men and 48,514 women ages ≥35 years was conducted using data from the MJ Health Screening Centers in Taiwan. Mortality from all causes, total ...

Methods We examined, cross-sectionally and longitudinally, the relations of baseline systolic and pulse pressures in central (calibrated tonometric carotid pulse) and peripheral (brachial, mercury sphygmomanometer) arteries to baseline left ventricular mass, carotid intima-media thickness, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and 10- ...

The roles of metabolic syndrome and chronic subclinical inflammation in arterial stiffening and the development of heart failure remain to be elucidated. Whether adiponectin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were independently related to brachial-ankle pulse-wave velocity (ba-PWV) and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) in the general population were investigated. Eligible study subjects were 445 Chinese residents aged ≥40 years who participated in a community-based ...

Aeration is the most energy intensive unit operation in municipal wastewater treatment, and fine‐pore diffusers have been widely used to minimize power consumption. Unfortunately, fine‐pore diffusers suffer from fouling and scaling problems, which cause a rapid decline in aeration performance and significant increase in power consumption. Diffusers must be cleaned periodically to reduce energy costs. The cleaning frequency of diffusers is site‐specific and its effectiveness can be evaluated with ...

Background and Purpose— Of few prospective studies that have focused on the relationship between fibrinogen and ischemic stroke (IS) in Asian populations, the findings were inconsistent with those conducted in Western countries. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the temporal relationship between fibrinogen levels (plus several related parameters) and IS in a community-based study in Taiwan. Methods— Baseline data from 3281 adults (≥20 years of age) in the Cardiovascular Diseases Risk Factor Two-Township ...

Punta Toro virus (PTV), a member of the sandfly fever group of bunyaviruses, is assembled by budding at intracellular membranes of the Golgi complex. We have examined PTV glycoprotein transport, assembly, and release and the effects of brefeldin A (BFA) on these processes. Both the G1 and G2 proteins were transported out of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and retained in the Golgi complex in a stable structure, either during PTV infection or when expressed from a vaccinia virus recombinant. BFA treatment ...

We have investigated the oligomerization and intracellular transport of the membrane glycoproteins of Punta Toro virus, a member of the Phlebovirus genus of the family Bunyaviridae, which is assembled by budding in the Golgi complex. By using one- or two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, chemical cross-linking, and sucrose gradient centrifugation, we found that the majority of the G1 and G2 glycoproteins are assembled into noncovalently linked G1-G2 heterodimers. ...

The genome of bluetongue virus, an orbivirus, consists of 10 double-stranded RNAs, each encoding at least one polypeptide. The smallest RNA segment (S10) encodes two minor nonstructural proteins, NS3 and NS3A, the structures and functions of which are not understood. We have expressed these two proteins in mammalian cells by using the T7 cytoplasmic transient expression system. Using a deletion mutant (lacking the first AUG initiation codon), we have demonstrated that the second initiation codon is ...

summary Two‐hundred and fifty‐four (159 male, 95 female) senior dental students (mean age: 22·34 ± 1·2 years) were asked to answer 14 questions. Scoring instructions accompanying this questionnaire indicated that the number of ‘yes’ responses was directly related to the probability of temporomandibular disorders (TMD). This survey of students was used to determine the prevalence of TMD. In addition, item analysis was performed to determine if there were any differences between male and female responses. ...

The effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy on the immune system are reported including potential changes to the CD4/CD8 ratio and a decreased proliferation of lymphocytes during exposure. The immunosuppressive effect of HBO2 had been suggested to be applicable for the treatment of certain autoimmune diseases. (NZB × NZW) F1 hybrid mice, the unique lupus-prone mice, have been used for elucidating the pathogenesis of SLE. To investigate the effect of HBO2 on NZB/W F1 lupus-prone mice, 32 female mice ...

The prevalence of obesity and associated chronic diseases has increased rapidly in Taiwan. Data from three consecutive Nutrition and Health surveys in Taiwan show that obesity prevalence has tripled for elementary school boys and doubled for girls since 1993-1996. About one-third of boys (15.5% and 14.7% for overweight and obesity, respectively) and one-quarter of girls were either overweight (14.4%) or obese (9.1%) in 2001-2002. For adults, obesity prevalence rates defined by body mass index > or = 27 ...

Aims: We investigated if systolic time intervals (pre‐ejection period, PEP; ejection time, ET; and their ratio, PEP/ET) can be used to identify heart failure patients with abnormal ventriculo‐arterial coupling. Methods: Age and sex‐matched study subjects included 54 apparently healthy subjects with normal left ventricular (LV) function, ...
