DIETARY N-3:N-6 FATTY ACID RATIOS DIFFERENTIALLY INFLUENCE HORMONAL SIGNATURE IN A RODENT MODEL OF METABOLIC SYNDROME RELATIVE TO HEALTHY CONTROLS

Dietary n-3:n-6 fatty acid ratios differentially influence hormonal signature in a rodent model of metabolic syndrome relative to healthy controls

Abstract Dietary ratios of omega-3 (n-3) to omega-6 (n-6) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have been implicated in controlling markers of the metabolic syndrome, including insulin sensitivity, inflammation, lipid profiles and adiposity.However, the role of dietary PUFAs in regulating energy systems in healthy relative to metabolic diseased backg

Hillslope Hydrology in a Deeply Weathered Saprolite and Associated Nitrate Transport to a Valley Bottom Wetland in Central Uganda

While interflow from the slopes can be crucial for water and nutrient availability in low-input farming systems in wetlands in East Africa, very little data exist on hillslope hydrology and associated nutrient transport in deeply weathered saprolites over crystalline rocks.This study aims for a better process understanding of interflow generation a

Oligosaccharides as Potential Therapeutics against Atherosclerosis

Atherosclerosis is the major cause of cardiovascular-disease-related death worldwide, resulting from the subendothelial accumulation of lipoprotein-derived cholesterol, ultimately leading to chronic inflammation and the formation of clinically significant atherosclerotic plaques.Oligosaccharides have been widely used in biomedical research and ther

Robot-assisted pyeloplasty for pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction of lower moiety in partial duplex system: A technical challenge

Management of pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction (PUJO) in a duplex system is technically challenging as dissection at the pelvis may jeopardize the vascularity of the normal moiety ureter.Anastomosing the pelvis to the one single ureter will have a risk of Shave Oil future development of stricture which then will risk both the moieties.Robotic as
