Background: The core interthreshold zone (CIZ) is defined as the range between temperatures at the onset of shivering and sweating. Its circadian or diurnal variation has not been extensively studied. The present study ex...
Association between high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and hypertension in relation to circulating CD34-positive cell levels [0.03%]
高密度脂蛋白胆固醇与血压及循环中CD34阳性细胞水平之间的关系
Yuji Shimizu,Shimpei Sato,Jun Koyamatsu et al.
Yuji Shimizu et al.
Background: Although high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL) level is inversely correlated with cardiovascular events, HDL is also reported to be positively associated with hypertension, which is a known endothelial im...
The association of insertions/deletions (INDELs) and variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs) with obesity and its related traits and complications [0.03%]
