Background Estimation of tree diversity at broader scale is important for conservation planning.Tree diversity should be measured and understood in terms of diversity and evenness, two integral components to describe the structure of a biological community.Variation of the tree diversity and evenness with elevation, topographic relief, aspect, terr
Almond skins are a waste byproduct of blanched almond production.Polyphenols extracted from almond skins possess antioxidant activities in vitro and in vivo.Thus, we examined the pharmacokinetic profile of almond skin polyphenols (ASP) and their effect on measures of oxidative stress.In a randomized crossover trial, seven adults consumed two acute
Aims The clinical outcome and threshold of oral anticoagulation differs between patients with solitary atrial flutter (AFL) and those with AFL developing atrial fibrillation (AF) (AFL-DAF).We therefore investigated previously unevaluated predictors of AF development in patients with AFL, and also the predictive values of risk scores in predicting t
