EURRECA-Estimating Selenium Requirements for Deriving Dietary Reference Values
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2013)
Current reference values for selenium, an essential micronutrient, are based on the intake of selenium that is required to achieve maximal glutathione peroxidase activity in plasma or erythrocytes. In order to assess the ...
Imageability ratings across languages
(Springer, New York, 2018)
Imageability is a psycholinguistic variable that indicates how well a word gives rise to a mental image or sensory experience. Imageability ratings are used extensively in psycholinguistic, neuropsychological, and ...
EURRECA-Estimating Iodine Requirements for Deriving Dietary Reference Values
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2013)
Iodine is an essential component of thyroid hormones, and current recommendations for intake are based on urinary iodine excretion, assessment of thyroid size, thyroidal iodine accumulation and turnover, radioactive iodine ...
JAK2-mutant hematopoietic cells display metabolic alterations that can be targeted to treat myeloproliferative neoplasms
(Amer Soc Hematology, Washington, 2019)
Increased energy requirement and metabolic reprogramming are hallmarks of cancer cells. We show that metabolic alterations in hematopoietic cells are fundamental to the pathogenesis of mutant JAK2-driven myeloproliferative ...
Analysis of cyclical behavior in time series of stock market returns
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
In this paper we have analyzed scaling properties and cyclical behavior of the three types of stock market indexes (SMI) time series: data belonging to stock markets of developed economies, emerging economies, and of the ...
Factors associated with Toxoplasma gondii infection in confined farrow-to-finish pig herds in western France: an exploratory study in 60 herds
(Biomed Central Ltd, London, 2016)
Background: Infection by Toxoplasma gondii postnatally can occur after ingestion of contaminated meat or water (tissue cysts/oocysts). In Europe, percentage of meat borne infections is estimated between 30 and 63 %, out ...
EURRECA-Estimating Iron Requirements for Deriving Dietary Reference Values
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2013)
Currently, a factorial approach is used to derive reference values for iron. Calculations include the use of a bioavailability factor to convert the physiological requirement, derived from obligatory losses and requirements ...
Optimization of extraction of stinging nettle leaf phenolic compounds using response surface methodology
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
A full three level factorial design was implemented for optimization of extraction parameters in order to maximize total phenolic (TP) yield from stinging nettle leaf. Factors considered were percentage of methanol in ...
Heterogeneity of Scaling of the Observed Global Temperature Data
(Amer Meteorological Soc, Boston, 2019)
We investigated the scaling properties of two datasets of the observed near-surface global temperature data anomalies: the Met Office and the University of East Anglia Climatic Research Unit HadCRUT4 dataset and the NASA ...
EURRECA-Estimating Zinc Requirements for Deriving Dietary Reference Values
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2013)
Zinc was selected as a priority micronutrient for EURRECA, because there is significant heterogeneity in the Dietary Reference Values (DRVs) across Europe. In addition, the prevalence of inadequate zinc intakes was thought ...
