Introduction: A study assessed women's knowledge of obesity and weight loss management in Southern India.
Materials And Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental design, with two urban areas selected for control and study groups. Biographic data were collected through SIS, and pre and post-tests were conducted using a SSAKQ and an Interventional Module.
Results: Results showed high obesity prevalence among women, with BMI (68%, 74%) and high-risk category waist circumference (91%, 93%). The study found a significant difference in knowledge levels between the control and study groups, with the interventional module being effective in increasing knowledge levels.

Herein, a novel and simple electrospray (ES) printing technique was developed for the fabrication of ultrathin graphene layers with precisely controlled nanometer-scale thickness, where graphene oxide (GO) was electrosprayed on wafers and subsequently chemically reduced into reduced GO (rGO). Utilizing that technique, we prepared ultrathin rGO in-plane graphene field-effect transistor (GFET)-based biosensors coupled with a portable prototype measuring system for point-of-care detection of pathogens. We illustrate the use of such prepared GFETs to detect COVID-19, using the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein antigen (N-protein) and genomic viral RNA as detection targets.

Background: Processing data from electronic health records (EHRs) to build research-grade databases is a lengthy and expensive process. Modern arthroplasty practice commonly uses multiple sites of care, including clinics and ambulatory care centers. However, most private data systems prevent obtaining usable insights for clinical practice.

The present study aims to investigate the impact of inhibition of ERN1 endoribonuclease and protein kinase activities on the , , and gene expression in U87MG glioblastoma cells with an intent to reveal the role of ERN1 signaling in the regulation of expression of these genes. The U87MG glioblastoma cells with inhibited ERN1 endoribonuclease (dnrERN1) or both enzymatic activities of ERN1 (endoribonuclease and protein kinase; dnERN1) were used.

The study of the T786C polymorphism of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene in arterial hypertension is important as its correlation with adipokine imbalance is a novelty area to find associations between hypertension development, obesity, and heredity. The purpose of the current study was to investigate serum adipokines levels, depending on the T786C polymorphism of the eNOS in patients with arterial hypertension.

For the effective growth of malignant tumors, including glioblastoma, the necessary factors involve endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, hypoxia, and the availability of nutrients, particularly glucose. The ER degradation enhancing alpha-mannosidase like protein 1 (EDEM1) is involved in ER-associated degradation (ERAD) targeting misfolded glycoproteins for degradation in an N-glycan-independent manner. EDEM1 was also identified as a new modulator of insulin synthesis and secretion.
