Postural influences on urinary incontinence in the elderly.

abstract：:For logarithmically growing cultures of the human diploid cell lines WI-38 and WI-26, there is an exponential increase in the fraction of cells not incorporating [3H]dT under conditions of continuous labelling. Thymidine uptake, phosphorylation and incorporation into DNA can be correlated with cell proliferation. In a...

abstract：:Older adults have surprisingly high levels of well-being, which has been referred to as a paradox in the past. Improved emotion regulation has been suggested to underlie these high levels of well-being. Later life is also a period with enhanced exposure to critical life events, and this comes with risks. During such t...
