The association of physical activity and sedentary behaviour with low back pain disability trajectories: A prospective cohort study.

Background: Multiple factors influence the recovery process of low back pain (LBP). The identification and increased knowledge of risk factors might contribute to a better understanding of the course of LBP.

Objectives: To investigate the association of habitual physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB), measured at baseline, with disability trajectories in adults with LBP.

The association of the STarT Back Screening Tool and type of leg pain with low back pain disability trajectories: a prospective cohort study.

Background: Multiple factors influence the recovery process of low back pain (LBP). The identification and increased knowledge of prognostic factors might contribute to a better understanding of the course of LBP. The purpose of this study is to investigate the association of the STarT Back Screening Tool (SBST) risk score and the type of leg pain (non-radiating LBP, referred non-radicular, and radicular radiating leg pain) with the disability trajectory (at baseline, the slope, and recovery at one year) in adults with low back pain.

Nutritional stimulation of the autonomic nervous system.

Disturbance of the inflammatory response in the gut is important in several clinical diseases ranging from inflammatory bowel disease to postoperative ileus. Several feedback mechanisms exist that control the inflammatory cascade and avoid collateral damage. In the gastrointestinal tract, it is of particular importance to control the immune response to maintain the balance that allows dietary uptake and utilization of nutrients on one hand, while preventing invasion of bacteria and toxins on the other hand.

Frequent detection of reviraemia in ducks persistently infected with avian leukosis retroviruses.

Ducks intraembryonally infected with avian leukosis viruses of subgroup C (ALV-C) were followed for a long period (up to 6.8 years), and the viraemia and production of virus-neutralizing antibodies were measured. In three independent experiments comprising ducks inoculated with uncloned and/or molecularly cloned ALV-C, we found that after the elimination of primary post-hatching viraemia, reviraemia could be detected in 60-70% of infected animals.

High rate of morphological reversion in tumor cell line H-19 associated with permanent transcriptional suppression of the LTR, v-src, LTR provirus.

The highly malignant line of morphologically transformed H-19 hamster tumor cells that harbor a single LTR, v-src, LTR provirus segregates morphologically flat revertants at the rate of 1.4 to 2.4 x 10(-3)/cell/cycle.
