Body mass index (BMI) is the most commonly used indicator for obesity research. Objective: To evaluate the authenticity, reliability and profitability of the obesity determination standard of body mass index (BMI) of college students, using the body fat rate obesity determination standard proposed by the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention as the gold standard, and to discuss BMI as a diagnostic performance and suitable cut-off value for excess body fat percentage. Methods: 1208 college students (557 males and 651 females) were tested, the height and weight were measured to calculate BMI, and the electrical impedance method was used to measure the percentage of body fat (BF%) and the ROC curve cutoff value to construct the BMI obesity diagnosis. standard.

During the treatment of lymphoma, the gonadal damage caused by chemotherapy cannot be ignored for the reverse impact on the reproductive function of the patients during survivorship. As the survival period of lymphoma patients has increasingly extended, fertility preservation is now a hot topic. Fertility preservation methods for female patients currently include embryo cryopreservation, oocyte cryopreservation, ovarian tissue cryopreservation, pharmacological protection therapy, etc. Among them, pharmacological protection therapy has a wide range of applications thanks to its cheapness and easy implementation. It is based on the use of gonadal function-related hormone analogues, including gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists and antagonists, with the effort to slow down the progression of premature ovarian failure and thus preserve the long-term reproductive potential. Although most studies suggest that it has a clear reproductive protective effect, there are still some research results that hold different opinions, especially for high-risk patients requiring","PeriodicalId":431612,"journal":{"name":"Medical Research Frontiers","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128316026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the goal of crossing liver source shortage barrier, researches attempt to explore techniques or methods like stem cells and tissue engineering, and recent years sounds developed rapidly and bright prospects, for example, artificial liver, tissue-engineered liver and xenotransplantation etc., in particular adult stem cells like bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells ( BM MSCs) and decellularized liver scaffold for large scale liver tissue engineer seems more eye-catching, and such decellularization / recellularization technology used has become the first strategy to build complex organs.

The cognitive decline of the middle-aged and elderly, such as verbal disorder and nonverbal disorder, has severely impacted their life. This paper systematically expounds the specific manifestations of Parkinson's patients with nonverbal cognitive impairment, like memory impairment, executive ability impairment and attention impairment, as well as revealing the neural mechanism behind them. The result shows that the decline of working memory may be related to the damage of the lateral frontal lobe and parietal cortex. PD patients' executive ability is mainly reflected in their difficulty in keeping balance, which is related to the reduction of the volume and surface area of their cerebral cortex. The attention of PD patients is easily diverted and damaged, associating with the hyperactivity of dopamine in midbrain, the decrease of medial prefrontal cortex and lateral prefrontal cortex. Based on these nonverbal cognitive impairment of PD patients, this paper also introduces the diagnosis methods of PD through the patients' hands and voice, the treatment of motor symptoms and non-motor symptoms, and the gait intervention methods, so as to improve people's understanding of PD patients.","PeriodicalId":431612,"journal":{"name":"Medical Research Frontiers","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133147116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
