Article Synopsis
- * The study found a global decline in age-standardized incidence (ASI) and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) rates for iodine deficiency, but regions like East Asia and countries such as the Philippines, Pakistan, and Nepal showed notable increases in these rates.
- * Despite the overall decline, iodine deficiency remains a significant concern, particularly among females and young adults aged 20-24, highlighting the need for targeted interventions in the most affected areas.
Objective: This study aimed to estimate the association between weight-adjusted waist index and serum total testosterone (sTT) in males aged 6-19 years in the United States.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2013-2016. sTT was considered as the response variable, and weight-adjusted waist circumference index (WWI) as the independent variable.
The inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) invaginates to form cristae and the maintenance of cristae depends on the mitochondrial contact site (MICOS) complex. Mitofilin and CHCHD6, which physically interact, are two components of the MICOS. In this study, we performed immunoprecipitation experiments with Mitofilin and CHCHD6 antibodies and identified a complex containing Mitofilin, Sam50, and CHCHD 3 and 6.
