Association between dietary patterns in the remote past and telomere length
There are limited data on the association between dietary information and leukocyte telomere length (LTL), which is considered an indicator of biological aging. In this study, we aimed at determining the assoc...

Ectopic cardiovascular fat in middle-aged men: effects of race/ethnicity, overall and central adiposity. The ERA JUMP study
Higher volumes of ectopic cardiovascular fat (ECF) are associated with greater risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Identifying factors that are associated with ECF volumes may lead to new preventive efforts ...

Realization of pmp-based control for hybrid electric vehicles in a backward-looking simulation
Optimal control is generally not possible without information about the future coming up, and it is not easy to obtain an optimal solution even though the information is given a priori. In this paper, a contro...

Particle numbers of lipoprotein subclasses and arterial stiffness among middle-aged men from the ERA JUMP study
We examined the association between serum lipoprotein subclasses and the three measures of arterial stiffness, that is, (i) carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), which is a gold standard measure of central...

Dietary information improves cardiovascular disease risk prediction models
Data are limited on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk prediction models that include dietary predictors. Using known risk factors and dietary information, we constructed and evaluated CVD risk prediction models.

Significant inverse association of marine n-3 fatty acids with plasma fibrinogen levels in Japanese in Japan but not in whites or Japanese Americans
Numerous studies reported beneficial effects of marine n-3 fatty acids (n-3 FAs) on cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its risk factors. However, the association of marine n-3 FAs with plasma fibrinogen, a risk ...

Role of the Substantia Nigra in the Kindling Model of Limbic Epilepsy
The kindling model of epilepsy was discovered relatively recently (Goddard et al., 1969), yet it is already the most extensively studied animal model of epilepsy. Despite extensive study, the mechanisms respon...
