The effect of dopamine intravenously injected in doses of 1 and 3 microg/kg/min on renal hemodynamics was studied in healthy individuals; the test followed a water load of 5 ml/kg. Glomerular infiltration rate and renal reserve were calculated from the blood and urine Cr concentration. The load of dopamine was found to be comparable with that of protein and amino acids. In most examinees, the renal reserve was preserved; however, it was absent in 3 persons, which needs further investigations. When used in doses of 1 and 3 microg/kg/min, dopamine showed the same potent stimulant effect; however, better tolerability was noted when the agent was injected in a dose of 1 microg/kg/min.

Clinical Research Center, First Affiliated Hospital, Shantou University Medical College, Shantou, China.
Background: University students in Saudi Arabia are embracing some of the negative traits of the fast-paced modern lifestyle, typified by unhealthy eating, low physical activity, and poor sleep habits that may increase their risk for poor health. Health and holistic well-being at the population level are among the priorities of the 2030 vision of a vibrant society in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The current study thus aims at determining the prevalence and predictive factors of Suboptimal Health Status (SHS) among university students.

Division of Global HIV & TB, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, United States of America.
Background: In Uganda, adolescent girls', and young women's (AGYW-15-24 years) current HIV prevalence is fourfold compared with their male counterparts due to compounded social, economic, and environmental factors. Using the Protective Motivation Theory (PMT), we explored HIV-acquisition risk sources and perceived protective factors from AGYW and caregivers' perspective.
Materials And Methods: During 2018, we conducted a qualitative study guided by PMT to explore factors influencing HIV acquisition among AGYW.
The impact of a commercial lower extremity exoskeleton on metabolic load, perceived exertion, and physiological response to a challenging military relevant task: A randomized cross-over design pilot study.

CFD Research Corporation, Huntsville, AL, United States of America.
Purpose: To assess physiological metrics during the use of a commercially available bilateral active ankle exoskeleton during a challenging military-relevant task and if use of the exoskeleton during this task influences: metabolic load, physiological measures or rate of perceived exertion.
Methods: Nine healthy volunteers (5M, 4F) completed this randomized cross-over design trial, with a baseline visit and two randomized test sessions (with/without the exoskeleton). Variables included impact on time to exhaustion during walking on a treadmill at varying speeds and gradients (0-15%) at 26.
