Differential Post-Exercise Blood Pressure Responses between Blacks and Caucasians
(2016-04-13)
Post-exercise hypotension (PEH) is widely observed in Caucasians (CA) and is associated with histamine receptors 1- and 2- (H1R and H2R) mediated post-exercise vasodilation. However, it appears that blacks (BL) may not ...
Effects of CO2 laser irradiation on matrix-rich biofilm development formation–an in vitro study
(2016-11-01)
Background: A carbon dioxide (CO2) laser has been used to morphologically and chemically modify the dental enamel surface as well as to make it more resistant to demineralization. Despite a variety of experiments demonstrating ...
Enhanced Recovery after Surgery in a Single High-Volume Surgical Oncology Unit: Details Matter
(2016-08)
Benefits of ERAS protocol have been well documented; however, it is unclear whether the improvement stems from the protocol or shifts in expectations. Interdisciplinary educational seminars were conducted for all health ...
