EVALUATING THE IMPACT OF THREE PROGESTIN-BASED HORMONAL CONTRACEPTIVE METHODS ON IMMUNOLOGIC CHANGES IN THE FEMALE GENITAL TRACT AND SYSTEMICALLY (CHIME STUDY): A PROSPECTIVE COHORT STUDY PROTOCOL

Abstract Background Gonadal hormones can modify immune function, which may impact susceptibility to infectious diseases, including Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).There is limited knowledge about how hormonal contraceptives (HC) RHODIOLA ROSEA influence the immune response during the course of use.The CHIME study aims to evaluate the effect of l

Abstract Background Research on the influence of neurocognitive factors on suicide risk, regardless of the diagnosis, is inconsistent.Recently, suicide risk studies propose applying a trans-diagnostic framework in line with the launch of the Research Domain Criteria Cognitive Systems model.In the present study, we highlight the extent of cognitive

In the brain of primates, the auditory cortex connects with the frontal lobe via the temporal pole (auditory ventral stream; AVS) and via the inferior parietal lobe (auditory dorsal stream; ADS).The AVS is responsible for sound recognition, and the ADS for sound-localization, voice detection and integration of calls with faces.I propose that the pr

With Autographed Mini-Helmets nearly one-half of U.S.teachers leaving the profession within the first five years of their career, focusing on retention is an ongoing effort.Providing quality mentorship during the student teaching internship provides further support to new teachers preparing to enter the classroom.Cooperating teachers play a pivotal

Postural stabilization during rapid and powerful hopping actions represents a significant challenge for Industrial:Restaurant legged robotics.One strategy utilized by humans to negotiate this difficulty is the robust activation of biarticular thigh muscles.Guided by this physiological principle, this study aims to enhance the postural stability of
