Three experiments investigated the influence of penile erection on ascriptions of mental capabilities to men. Drawing on sexual objectification literature and the distinction between agency and experience in mind perception, three competing predictions were formulated. The mind redistribution hypothesis assumed that penile erection would lower agency and heighten experience attributions, the animalistic dehumanization hypothesis predicted the decrease in agency, but not experience, and the literal objectification hypothesis implied the simultaneous decrease in both agency and experience. In Experiment 1 (N = 219; 128 females), erection salience lowered agency, but not experience capabilities ascribed to male targets. Experiment 2 (N = 201, 113 females) replicated the negative effect of erection salience on perceived agency (but not experience) and revealed that erection salience lowered intentions to hire a male target. This effect was explained with the loss of perceived agency. Experiment 3 (N = 203, 98 females) verified the causal relationship between penile erection, agency and hiring intentions. Taken together, these results supported the animalistic dehumanization hypothesis.Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biodegradable bioplastic that is comparable with many petroleum-based plastics in terms of mechanical properties and is highly biocompatible. Lignocellulosic biomass conversion into PHB can increase profit and add sustainability. Glucose, xylose and arabinose are the main monomer sugars derived from upstream lignocellulosic biomass processing. The sugar mixture ratios may vary greatly depending on the pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis conditions. Paraburkholderia sacchari DSM 17165 is a bacterium strain that can convert all three sugars into PHB. In this study, fed-batch mode was applied to produce PHB on three sugar mixtures (glucosexylosearabinose = 421, 221, 121). The highest PHB concentration produced was 67 g/L for 421 mixture at 41 h corresponding to an accumulation of 77% of cell dry weight as PHB. Corresponding sugar conversion efficiency and productivity were 0.33 g PHB/g sugar consumed and 1.6 g/L/h, respectively. The results provide references for process control to maximize PHB production from real sugar streams derived from corn fibre. The study aims were to determine the prevalence of balance impairments in adult survivors of pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors, and to identify predictors of and limitations associated with balance impairments. Participants were adult survivors (N = 329) of pediatric CNS tumors. Balance was considered impaired among those with composite scores < 70 on the sensory organization test. Potential predictors of impaired balance were evaluated with generalized linear regression. Multivariable logistic regression was used to evaluate associations between balance impairment and function. Balance impairment was observed in 48% of survivors, and associated with infratentorial tumor location (OR = 4.0, 95% CI, 2.0-7.6), shunt placement (OR = 3.5, 95% CI, 1.8-6.7), increased body fat percentage (OR = 1.1, 95% CI, 1.0-1.1), hearing loss (OR = 11.1, 95% CI, 5.6-22.2), flexibility limitations (OR = 2.0, 95% CI, 1.0-3.9), peripheral neuropathy (OR = 2.4, 95% CI, 1.2-4.5), and cognitive deficits (OR = 2.2, 95% CI, 1.1-4.7). In adjusted models, impaired balance was associated with limitations in overall physical performance (OR = 3.6, 95% CI, 2.0-6.3), mobility (OR = 2.6, 95% CI, 1.5-4.4), diminished walking endurance (OR = 2.9, 95% CI, 1.7-5.0), and non-independent living (OR = 2.0, 95% CI, 1.0-4.3). Nearly half of adult survivors of pediatric CNS tumors have impaired balance, which is associated with mobility and physical performance limitations. Interventions to address the complex needs of this population should be prioritized. Survivors with identified risk factors should be closely evaluated for presence of balance impairment. Interventions tailored to improve balance also can positively affect function and mobility in survivors. Survivors with identified risk factors should be closely evaluated for presence of balance impairment. Interventions tailored to improve balance also can positively affect function and mobility in survivors.The neurohumoral and inflammatory pathways proposed for the development and progression of heart failure (HF) remain up-to-date. We aimed to investigate the effect of emergency department (ED) visits and inflammatory markers on mortality in HF patients. Two-hundred patients with stable chronic HF followed by the cardiology clinic were included in this study. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/atglistatin.html The patients were divided into two groups as patients who had visited the ED due to worsening HF symptoms within the last 6 months (ED visit Group) and who had not (No ED visit Group). The demographical properties, clinical characteristics, and laboratory values including inflammatory markers of the patients were recorded. During the follow-up period, 38 patients (19%) died. In HF patients with previous ED visits, the mortality risk was 2.091 times higher (relative risk, RR). It was identified that the HF patients who died during the follow-up had higher initial NLR (p = 0.004), IG% (p = 0.029), hs-CRP (p = 0.001), and NT-proBNP (p = 0.004) values. It was observed that the area under the curve (AUC) values, NLR (AUC 0.705, p 9.9 mg/dl (95% CI 2.16-8.16) (p less then 0.05). The patients with chronic stable HF who visited the ED within the last six months and having increased NLR, IG%, and CRP levels among inflammatory markers were associated with a higher mortality risk at 1 year.Infectious diseases are a major global concern being responsible for high morbidity and mortality mainly due to the development and enhancement of multidrug-resistant microorganisms exposing the fragility of medicines and vaccines commonly used to these treatments. Taking into account the scarcity of effective formulation to treat infectious diseases, nanotechnology offers a vast possibility of ground-breaking platforms to design new treatment through smart nanostructures for drug delivery purposes. Among the available nanosystems, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) stand out due their multifunctionality, biocompatibility and tunable properties make them emerging and actual nanocarriers for specific and controlled drug release. Considering the high demand for diseases prevention and treatment, this review exploits the MSNs fabrication and their behavior in biological media besides highlighting the most of strategies to explore the wide MSNs functionality as engineered, smart and effective controlled drug release nanovehicles for infectious diseases treatment.
