Plasma amino acid profile as a biomarker of malate-aspartate shuttle overload in a hepatic glycolytic defect (PFKFB1): a pre/post supplementation case study

Background: it has been proposed that the hepatic glycolytic blockade associated with a hemizygous PFKFB1 variant (p.Ser159Thr) causes cytosolic NADH accumulation, with a secondary increase in demand on the malate-aspartate shuttle (MAS) — the principal mechanism for transferring...

The Sacred and the Secular: An Empirical Analysis of Religious Attendance and Macroeconomic Development

Abstract This paper examines the long-term relationship between religious involvement across the 50 years and economic growth. For long many sociologists believed as the countries became modern, religion would fade away of itself, but the facts have proved otherwise. The study us...

Reducing Sugars from Banana Peel

The generation of lignocellulosic organic waste is associated with agricultural, industrial, and domestic activities due to the production, processing and consumption of fruits, representing an environmental concern as a result of improper disposal, which can lead to water and so...

One Cycle, Many Dilations Dual Closure, Temporal Resistance, and the Origin of Spectra, Vacuum, and Black Holes in the Alpha Void Ontology Paper 13

This paper develops a unified account of spectral structure, the quantum vacuum, and black holes within the Alpha Void Information Ontology (AVIO). Persistent structures are shown to obey a dual integer-closure condition (spatial and temporal) around Alpha Void Tears. Satisfactio...

Characterizing Comorbidities in Total Joint Arthroplasty in a Safety-Net Hospital Using Age-Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index

BACKGROUND: The joint arthroplasty population has a high number of comorbidities at the time of surgery, which increases the cost of care per episode. The goal of this study was to analyze the distribution of comorbid diseases in patients who have undergone total joint arthroplas...

Augmented Reality–Guided Individualized Total Knee Arthroplasty: Initial Clinical Implementation and Results

BACKGROUND: Contemporary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) practice has evolved from uniform mechanical alignment to individualized alignment planning in response to growing evidence that a single alignment strategy does not optimize outcomes for all patients. However, precise execut...
