Molina, R, Lapresa, D, Arana, J, Álvarez, I, and Salazar, H. Wellness and session rating of perceived exertion in professional basketball players within different weekly contexts. J Strength Cond Res XX(X): 000-000, 2024-The objective of this article was to analyze the level of well-being-through the wellness questionnaire-and the training load-based on the session rating of perceived exertion (sRPE)-in professional basketball players within different weekly contexts during the season 2020/2021.

This study aimed to determine if the use of NSAIDs in the early phase of bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV)-infection limits pulmonary inflammation. Four to nine-week old calves were infected with BRSV by aerosol and were treated with either meloxicam intravenously on day (D)4 (n = 5, MEL), acetylsalicylat-DL-lysin intravenously on D4 and D5 (n = 5, ASA), or were left untreated as controls (n = 5, CTR).

QTL mapping has been focused on multi-tissue expression QTLs or plasma protein QTLs (pQTLs). We generated a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pQTL atlas by measuring 6,361 proteins in 3,506 samples.

The aims of this work were to elucidate the formation of dehydroequol and 5-hydroxy-dehydroequol, to identify the role of dihydrodaidzein reductase (DHDR) in the production of equol, dehydroequol, 5-hydroxy-equol and 5-hydroxy-dehydroequol and to develop soy beverages enriched in these compounds through engineered lactic acid bacteria. DHDR was responsible for the production of equol and dehydroequol from dihydrodaidzein (DHD), and of 5-hydroxy-equol and 5-hydroxy-dehydroequol from dihydrogenistein (DHG), even in the absence of tetrahydrodaidzein reductase (THDR).

Leveraging two independent populations from two different movement disorder centers we identified 2,188 differentially expressed cfRNAs after meta-analysis. The identified transcripts were enriched in PD relevant pathways, such as PD (p=9.
