Aim: Chronic kidney disease of uncertain aetiology (CKDu) is an emerging health concern in tropical farming communities. The role of occupational heat exposure as a potential driver of CKDu remains debated. Our study examines occupational heat exposure and kidney health in three occupational groups in Sri Lanka. Methodology: We recruited participants from three occupational groups from three climatic zones; fisherfolk from the dry and intermediate zones (N = 225), paddy farmers from the intermediate zone (N = 180) and tea plantation workers from the wet zone (N = 70).

This paper presents an empirical analysis of the effect of monetary policy shocks on credit supply in Tunisia, using a vector autoregressive model and a nonlinear interactive model. The focus is on the magnitude of these shocks in the presence of foreign banks. The variables of interest are the concentration index of deposit banks, and monetary policy shocks based on the monthly data of 27 universal and business banks covering the period 1993 to 2016. The results support a positive and significant impact of concentration index on credit supply. However, monetary policy shocks appear to have no

Abstract Background Understanding animal behaviour is critical for the design of effective conservation and management strategies. Animal-borne tri-axial accelerometers constitute a type of biologging device which have the potential to provide continuous high-resolution behavioural data. For marine animals, device attachment position may influence both the accuracy of behavioural predictions and the hydrodynamic profile of the animal. We present a case study on the use of accelerometers for the behavioural classification of two sea turtle species in captivity: the loggerhead (Caretta caretta)

Introduction: Vitamin D3 is one of the important vitamins in calcium metabolism, which increases the active transport of calcium and phosphorus in the intestinal epithelium. However, the mechanism by which vitamin D3 increases the absorption of calcium and phosphorus is not fully understood. The active form of vitamin D3 or 1,25-hydroxycalciferol is transported to the nucleus of the intestinal cells. In the presence of 1, 25-hydroxycalciferol, a specific RNA is secreted from the cell nucleus, which is translated into a specific protein by the ribosomes, thereby increasing the uptake of calcium

Abstract Background Kinins play an important role in regulation of pain and hyperalgesia after tissue injury and inflammation by activating two types of G-protein-coupled receptors, the kinin B 1 and B 2 receptors. It is generally accepted that the B 2 receptor is constitutively expressed, whereas the B 1 receptor is induced in response to inflammation. However, little is known about the regulatory effects of kinin receptors on the onset of acute inflammation and inflammatory pain in humans. The present study investigated the changes in gene expression of kinin receptors and the levels of thei
