Development of a Competitive Time-Resolved Fluoroimmunoassay for Paclitaxel.

Phytochemical analysis : PCA
INTRODUCTION: Paclitaxel (Tax) is a diterpene alkaloid isolated from Taxus species and has proved clinically effective in treating a number of malignancies. Current quantitative analytical methods for Tax such as high-performance liquid chromatograph...

Effects of carbohydrate mouth rinse and caffeine on high-intensity interval running in a fed state.

Applied physiology, nutrition, and metabolism = Physiologie appliquee, nutrition et metabolisme
The current study aims to identify if mouth rinsing with a 6% carbohydrate mouth-rinse (CMR) solution and mouth rinsing and ingestion of caffeine (CMR+CAFF) can affect exercise performance during steady-state (SS) running and high-intensity intervals...

A functional supervised learning approach to the study of blood pressure data.

Statistics in medicine
In this work, a functional supervised learning scheme is proposed for the classification of subjects into normotensive and hypertensive groups, using solely the 24-hour blood pressure data, relying on the concepts of Fréchet mean and Fréchet variance...

Does conditioned pain modulation predict the magnitude of placebo effects in patients with neuropathic pain?

European journal of pain (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Conditioned pain modulation (CPM) is a validated measure of the function of endogenous pain inhibitory pathways. Placebo effects reflect top-down inhibitory modulation of pain. CPM and placebo effects are both influenced by expectations, ...

Cognitive sequelae of endocrine therapy in women treated for breast cancer: a meta-analysis.

Breast cancer research and treatment
PURPOSE: Evidence suggests anti-estrogen endocrine therapy (ET) is associated with adverse cognitive effects; however, findings are based on small samples and vary in the cognitive abilities affected. We conducted a meta-analysis to quantitatively sy...
