PROGESTINS UPREGULATE FKBP51 EXPRESSION IN HUMAN ENDOMETRIAL STROMAL CELLS TO INDUCE FUNCTIONAL PROGESTERONE AND GLUCOCORTICOID WITHDRAWAL: IMPLICATIONS FOR CONTRACEPTIVE- ASSOCIATED ABNORMAL UTERINE BLEEDING.

Progestins Upregulate FKBP51 Expression in Human Endometrial Stromal Cells to Induce Functional Progesterone and Glucocorticoid Withdrawal: Implications for Contraceptive- Associated Abnormal Uterine Bleeding.

Use of long-acting progestin only contraceptives (LAPCs) offers a discrete and highly effective family planning method.Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is the major side effect of, and cause for, discontinuation of LAPCs.The endometria of LAPC-treated women display abnormally enlarged, fragile blood vessels, decreased endometrial blood flow and oxid

Recent Developments in Radical Photoinitiator Chemistry

Radiation curing is an established technology used in many industrial manufacturing processes.New applications and technical specifications stimulate the continuous development of tailor-made photoinitiators which can efficiently meet specific requirements.A stands new class of radical photoinitiators, bisacylphosphine oxides (BAPO), give four init

Secure Communication With Energy-Harvesting Buffer-Aided Jammer

Information security and self-sustainability are crucial to resource-limited wireless networks.In this paper, we assess the secrecy performance of the legitimate link without having eavesdropper’s channel state information (CSI) while considering an energy harvesting (EH) jammer with finite and infinite energy buffer sizes.The EH jammer util

Positive end-expiratory pressure and prone position alter the capacity of force generation from diaphragm in acute respiratory distress syndrome: an animal experiment

Abstract Background Spontaneous breathing potentially injures lungs and diaphragm when spontaneous effort is vigorous in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) while immobility also has risks of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) acquired weakness and diaphragm atrophy.Thus, ventilatory strategy to mitigate strong spontaneous effort should be promptly e
