Objectives: To investigate the psychometric properties of the Upper-Body Dressing Scale (UBDS), a tool for evaluating upper-body dressing performance in stroke patients.
Design: Cross-sectional study.
Subjects: Seventy-six chronic stroke patients and 49 healthy older adults.
Methods: UBDS, Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed Up-and-Go Test (TUGT), Limit of Stability (LOS) test, Motor Activity Log (MAL-30), Arm Activity Measure (AAM), 12-item Short Form Health Survey, and Community Integration Measure - Cantonese version were assessed Results: UBDS time and UBDS score demonstrated good to excellent inter-rater and test-retest reliabilities for chronic stroke patients (intraclass correlation coefficient 0.759-1.000). UBDS time correlated significantly with FMA Upper and Lower Extremity, WMFT, and BBS scores, TUGT time, LOS Movement Velocity (affected side), LOS Maximal Excursion (composite), MAL-30 Amount of Use and Quality of Movement (affected side), and AAM (section B) scores (r = -0.61 to 0.63). The minimal detectable changes in UBDS time and UBDS score were 28.67 s and 0, respectively. The cut-off UBDS time and UBDS score were 37.67 s and 7.50, respectively.
Conclusion: UBDS time is a reliable, sensitive, and specific measurement for assessing upper-body dressing performance in chronic stroke patients.

Ubiquitin-binding domains (UBDs) are modular elements that bind non-covalently to the ubiquitin and ubiquitin chains. The preferences of UBDs for ubiquitin chains of specific length and linkage are central to their functions. We demonstrated that an artificial tandem hybrid UBD (ThUBD) exhibits an unbiased high affinity to all ubiquitin chains and is a promising tool for global ubiquitination profiling research.

Today's eating patterns are characterized by the consumption of unbalanced diets (UBDs) resulting in a variety of health consequences on the one hand, and the consumption of dietary supplements in order to achieve overall health and wellness on the other. Balanced nutrition is especially crucial during childhood and adolescence as these time periods are characterized by rapid growth and development of the skeleton. We show the harmful effect of UBD on longitudinal bone growth, trabecular and cortical bone micro-architecture and bone mineral density; which were analyzed by micro-CT scanning.

Ubiquitin binding domains (UBDs) are modular elements that bind non-covalently to ubiquitin and act as downstream effectors and amplifiers of the ubiquitination signal. With few exceptions, UBDs recognize the hydrophobic path centered on Ile44, including residues Leu8, Ile44, His68, and Val70. A variety of different orientations, which can be attributed to specific contacts between each UBD and surface residues surrounding the hydrophobic patch, specify how each class of UBD specifically contacts ubiquitin.

Ubiquitination is one of the most major post-translational modifications playing important role in regulation of intra-cellular proteins' stability, degradation, localization and biological activity. However, these proteins are difficult to be detected due to their low abundance, short half-life. In this study, ubiquitin-binding domains (UBDs) were constructed to purify the ubiquitinated proteins from Hep3B cells.
