Cadmium Toxicity: Oxidative Stress, Inflammation and Tissue Injury
( Scientific Research Publishing , 2019 , Article Review)Cadmium is a known environmental pollutant targeting various organs. Often implicated in cadmium toxicology is the formation of reactive oxygen species, overwhelming the free radical scavenging mechanisms and inducing ... -
Cadmium, an Environmental Contaminant with a Potential Role In Modulating Cardiac Matrix Metalloproteinases
(2020 , Master Thesis)Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal that is found in the environment from both natural and anthropogenic sources. It is a xenobiotic environmental pollutant with no known essential biological functions. Exposure to ... -
Cadmium-induced endothelial dysfunction mediated by asymmetric dimethylarginine.
( Springer , 2020 , Article)Cadmium (Cd) is a naturally occurring toxic heavy metal with no known essential biological functions. Exposure to Cd increases the risk of cardiovascular disease by disrupting vascular homeostasis at the endothelium. The ... -
Cadmium: An Emerging Role in Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
( Springer , 2021 , Article Review)Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal that is widespread in the environment due to the substantial anthropogenic inputs from the agriculture and industrial sectors. The toxic impact of Cd adversely affects human health and ... -
CAE Adaptive Compression, Transmission Energy and Cost Optimization for m-Health Systems
( IEEE Computer Society , 2021 , Conference Paper)The rapid increase in the number of patients requiring constant monitoring inspires researchers to investigate the area of mobile health (m-Health) systems for intelligent and sustainable remote healthcare applications. ... -
CAEP Accreditation: Educational Neocolonialism and Non-US Teacher Education Programs
( Palgrave Macmillan , 2022 , Article)Under the facade of globalization, educational neocolonialism occurs through the transferring of educational theories and practices from the global north to the global south, potentially challenging and undermining indigenous ... -
Caesarean section in Sudan: findings from nationwide household surveys on rates, trends, and geographic and sociodemographic variability
( BMC , 2022 , Article)Background: Medically unjustifiable caesarean section (CS) deliveries have been rising rapidly in many developed countries over the last three decades. While many developing countries show rates beyond optimal levels, few ... -
Caffeine for the Treatment of Apnea in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit: A Systematic Overview of Meta-Analyses
( Springer , 2020 , Article Review)Background: Caffeine is a common treatment for neonatal intensive care management of the developmental complication of apnea of prematurity in preterm infants. There are several systematic reviews (SRs) on the performance ... -
Caffeine Supplementation as an Ergogenic Aid for Muscular Strength and Endurance: A Recommendation for Coaches and Athletes
( SciTechnol , 2016 , Article)Caffeine (1, 3, 7-trimethylxanthine) which can be ubiquitously found in energy drinks, sodas, coffee, and supplements, is one of the principal legal drugs consumed worldwide. Caffeine based ergogenic aids are utilized ... -
Caffeine use or napping to enhance repeated sprint performance after partial sleep deprivation: Why not both?
( Human Kinetics Publishers Inc. , 2021 , Article)Purpose: To compare the effect of a 20-minute nap opportunity (N20), a moderate dose of caffeine (CAF; 5 mg·kg-1), or a moderate dose of caffeine before N20 (CAF+N) as possible countermeasures to the decreased performance ... -
