Abstract:
... Ammonia is one of the most significant environmental pollutants affecting aquatic animals under culture conditions; however, little is known about ammonia toxicity in marine gastropods. In this study, the effects of different total ammonia concentrations (0.0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10.0 mg∙L⁻¹ NH₄Cl) on growth performance, tissue damage, antioxidant capacity, immune function, and body composition wer ...

Abstract:
... Background: Although evidence suggests that resistance training should be prescribed as a method to enhance or maintain physical fitness, these findings are mostly based on research on younger men. Studies investigating responses by sex and age to resistance training, especially in war veterans aged ≥50 years, are lacking. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to examine whether a 4-week r ...

Abstract:
... Due to the physical, psychological, or socioeconomic changes that accompany aging, many people will be affected by geriatric frailty syndrome, which can lead to multimorbidity and premature death. Nutrition counseling is often used to prevent and intervene in frailty syndrome, especially in geriatric rehabilitation. To this end, the consumption behavior of geriatric patients is recorded using pape ...
