To be able to take effective and efficient decisions leading to transparent and comparable results between different risk situations, a consistent and systematic risk management process has to be followed (in this context called “integral risk management”) ...
Current treatment for atherosclerotic heart disease consists mainly of the administration of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors or 'statin' class of drugs. Statins, which lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels an ...
This study addressed the possible influence of apolipoprotein E (apo E) genotype on age-related changes in total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglyceride (TG) levels in older males. Apo E is a component of LDL, is a l ...
Compounds which are PPAR delta agonists are described. These compounds are useful for raising high density lipoprotein (HDL) plasma levels in mammals and for preventing, halting or slowing the progression of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and rela ...
Falls are the leading cause of injury-related morbidity and mortality among elderlypersons and are associated with significant adverse psychological andphysical consequences [1].Evaluating fall risk is important because it allows better targeting for preve ...
At low flow rate operation, Francis turbines feature a cavitating vortex rope in the draft tube resulting from the swirling flow of the runner outlet. The unsteady pressure field related to the precession of the vortex rope induces plane wave propagating i ...
