Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) and cerebral pulsatility (CP) are important indicators of cerebrovascular health and have been shown to be associated with physical activity (PA). Sex differences have been shown to influence the impact of PA on cerebrovascular health. However, the sex-specific effects of PA on CP and CVR, particularly in relation to inten ...

Background: Preliminary research suggests that acupuncture can improve cardiovascular function. The purpose of our study was to determine if electroacupuncture can improve performance and post-exercise recovery. Methods: Thirty-two healthy people participated in this study (14 men and 18 women, aged 23.6 ± 3.5 years). The first visit included baseline me ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis is a keystone pathogen for periodontal disease. The bacteria are black-pigmented and require heme for growth. P. gingivalis exhibit resistance to many antimicrobial peptides, which contributes to their success in the oral cavity. P. gingivalis W50 was resistant to the antimicrobial peptide LGL13K but susceptible to the all-D-amino ...

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a powerful tool for data-driven learning on various graph domains. They are usually based on a message-passing mechanism and have gained increasing popularity for their intuitive formulation, which is closely linked to the Weisfeiler-Lehman (WL) test for graph isomorphism to which they have been proven equivale ...
