To determine whether high left ventricular mass may be reduced by antihypertensive drugs in normotensives with exaggerated blood pressure response to exercise as it occurs in hypertensive patients.Randomized, single blind, controlled parallel study evaluating the influence of placebo; lisinopril 20 mg/day, diltiazem 180 mg/d for 5-6 months on left ventricular mass (LVM), evaluated by echo and on "casual" and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (24-h BP) in normotensive subjects with exaggerated blood pressure response to exercise (Group I) and in weight--and age--matched mild-moderated hypertensive patients (Group II), all with high left ventricular mass.Placebo, lisinopril and diltiazem, were administered for 5-6 months in respectively 8+9+9 subjects of Group I and 8+9+10 patients in Group II.Placebo did not change either LVM index or 24-h BP values in Group I and Group II. Diltiazem and lisinopril reduced LVM index in both Groups I and II but 24-h BP values were only reduced in Group II. Lisinopril appeared to be more potent than diltiazem on LVM regression. Slopes of LVM index regression were not different between Groups I and II for each drug. Drug-induced changes of LVM index did not correlate with blood pressure changes.Drug-induced regression of LVM may be achieved in man (Group I) without any reduction of blood pressure. This may be explained by interference with growth-promoting systems other than with cardiac unloading. Also, the similar pattern of LVM regression that was observed in both Groups I and II suggests that similar underlying mechanisms may be involved in the LVH regression in these two populations.

It is crucial to understand why people comply with measures to contain viruses and their effects during pandemics. We provide evidence from 35 countries (Ntotal = 12,553) from 6 continents during the COVID-19 pandemic (between 2021 and 2022) obtained via cross-sectional surveys that the social perception of key protagonists on two basic dimensions—warmth and competence—plays a crucial role in shaping pandemic-related behaviors. Firstly, when asked in an open question format, heads of state, physicians, and protest movements were universally identified as key protagonists across countries. Secondly, multiple-group confirmatory factor analyses revealed that warmth and competence perceptions of these and other protagonists differed significantly within and between countries. Thirdly, internal meta-analyses showed that warmth and competence perceptions of heads of state, physicians, and protest movements were associated with support and opposition intentions, containment and prevention behaviors, as well as vaccination uptake. Our results have important implications for designing effective interventions to motivate desirable health outcomes and coping with future health crises and other global challenges.

Este trabalho teve por objetivo conhecer a percepção que os fisiculturistas portugueses possuem do próprio corpo, relacionando-a com os sinais e sintomas próprios da vigorexia, a fim de constatar a existência de tal patologia ou não no universo estudado, bem como o grau de severidade, sem houver. Foram aplicados os seguintes instrumentos de coleta de dados: um conjunto de silhuetas destinado a verificar o grau de satisfação com a imagem corporal e um questionário destinado a identificar a presença e a severidade dos indícios de vigorexia. Os resultados obtidos foram os seguintes: (1) 1 atleta não apresentou indícios de vigorexia; (2) 16 atletas apresentaram alguns indícios de vigorexia; (3) 29 atletas apresentaram todos os indícios de vigorexia; (4) 5 atletas estão satisfeitos com a imagem corporal; (5) 20 atletas desejam aumentar um pouco a imagem corporal; e (6) 21 atletas desejam aumentar muito a imagem corporal, mostrando um alto grau de insatisfação com sua imagem actual. Concluiu-se, neste estudo, que, segundo os parâmetros utilizados nesta investigação, a vigorexia é um mal que aflige, de facto, uma parcela significativa dos fisiculturistas portugueses., {"references":["Applegate, L.

Background The study aimed to assess the influence of different implant insertion angles and depths on the stresses produced on the surface of peri-implant bone tissue under axial and oblique loading. Material and Methods The entire study followed the recommendations of the Checklist for Reporting In-vitro Studies (CRIS). The implant was placed in the region of element 36, according to the following models: M1 (0 mm / 0°); M2 (0 mm / 17°); M3 (0 mm / 30°); M4 (2 mm / 0°); M5 (2 mm / 17°); M6 (2 mm / 30°). The models were subjected to loading, with intensity of 100 N. The stress assessment followed the Mohr-Coulomb criterion and qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed. Results Angled implants and installed below the bone crest produced the highest stresses on the cortical bone, and the axial load presented the highest stress peaks on the buccal side of implants perpendicular to the bone crest. Regardless of the type of load (axial or oblique), inclined implants presented the highest stress peaks on the lingual side of the cortical bone. Conclusions Implants installed perpendicular to and with a prosthetic platform at bone crest height provided the lowest stresses to peri-implant bone tissue under both axial and oblique loading. Key words:Finite element analysis, dental implants, axial loading, biomechanical phenomena.

Decreases in genetic variance over generations reduce future genetic gain. We studied the evolution of genetic variance in the dairy sheep breed Manech Tete Rousse, which has been selected for increasingly complex objectives, including, in this order, milk yield, milk contents, scrapie resistance, and somatic cell score. We estimated base population genetic variance and genetic variance by sex and per year of birth from 1981 to 2014. The data consisted of 1,842,295 milk yield records (from 1978 to 2017) and a pedigree including 530,572 females (96% of them with records) and 3,798 artificial insemination males. As a measure of drift, we computed average relationships for each cohort from which we derived expected reduction of variance due to increased relationships. The difference between observed and expected reductions in genetic variances is the reduction in genetic variance due to selection. Average relationships increased steadily but slowly in both sexes. For females, genetic variance reduced with time until a plateau was reached at around 90% of the initial genetic variance. The reduction due to relationships (roughly 3% cumulated in 30 yr) was smaller than that due to selection (roughly 10% across the last years). A smaller loss due to selection was seen in recent years, possibly due to a change in selection objectives. These results agree well with theoretical expectations. The pattern of the evolution of genetic variance in males was similar to that for females but with a stronger reduction because of strong selection of AI males at birth. We conclude that the reductions in genetic variation due to selection and drift agree with expectations, and none of the reductions are very strong in this population because of control of inbreeding and smooth changes in selection objectives over time.

Background Bias has been reported in genetic or genomic evaluations of several species. Common biases are systematic differences between averages of estimated and true breeding values, and their over- or under-dispersion. In addition, comparing accuracies of pedigree versus genomic predictions is a difficult task. This work proposes to analyse biases and accuracies in the genetic evaluation of milk yield in Manech Tête Rousse dairy sheep, over several years, by testing five models and using the estimators of the linear regression method. We tested models with and without genomic information [best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) and single-step genomic BLUP (SSGBLUP)] and using three strategies to handle missing pedigree [unknown parent groups (UPG), UPG with QP transformation in the $${\mathbf{H}}$$ H matrix (EUPG) and metafounders (MF)]. Methods We compared estimated breeding values (EBV) of selected rams at birth with the EBV of the same rams obtained each year from the first daughters with phenotypes up to 2017. We compared within and across models. Finally, we compared EBV at birth of the rams with and without genomic information. Results Within models, bias and over-dispersion were small (bias: 0.20 to 0.40 genetic standard deviations; slope of the dispersion: 0.95 to 0.99) except for model SSGBLUP-EUPG that presented an important over-dispersion (0.87). The estimates of accuracies confirm that the addition of genomic information increases the accuracy of EBV in young rams. The smallest bias was observed with BLUP-MF and SSGBLUP-MF. When we estimated dispersion by comparing a model with no markers to models with markers, SSGBLUP-MF showed a value close to 1, indicating that there was no problem in dispersion, whereas SSGBLUP-EUPG and SSGBLUP-UPG showed a significant under-dispersion. Another important observation was the heterogeneous behaviour of the estimates over time, which suggests that a single check could be insufficient to make a good analysis of genetic/genomic evaluations. Conclusions The addition of genomic information increases the accuracy of EBV of young rams in Manech Tête Rousse. In this population that has missing pedigrees, the use of UPG and EUPG in SSGBLUP produced bias, whereas MF yielded unbiased estimates, and we recommend its use. We also recommend assessing biases and accuracies using multiple truncation points, since these statistics are subject to random variation across years.

Experiments were carried out at the Faculty of Food Technology of Latvia University of Agriculture (LLU). Soft cheese Kleo produced in Latvia was packed in a biodegradable PLA without barrierproperties and VC999 BioPack lidding film PLA, coated with a barrier of pure silicon oxide (SiOx) and in combination with modified atmosphere (MAP) the influence on the shelf life was investigated and compared with some conventional (OPP, PE/PA, PE/OPA and Multibarrier 60) polymer film impact. Modified atmosphere consisted of carbon dioxide CO2 (E 290) 30% and nitrogen N2 (E 941) 70%. The analyzable samples were stored at the temperature of +4.0±0.5 °C up to 32 days- and analyzed before packaging and in the 0, 5th, 11th, 15th, 18th, 22nd, 25th, 29th and 32nd day of storage. The shelf life was extended along to 32 days, good outside appearance and lactic acid aroma was observed., {"references":["O. M. Abdalla, A. K.
