Disease relevance of Activities of Daily Living

 

Psychiatry related information on Activities of Daily Living

 

High impact information on Activities of Daily Living

  • The tacrine group had a significantly smaller decline in the activities of daily living [10].
  • In both groups the disease progressed; there was no difference in disease severity, capacity for daily living activities, or total amounts of dopamine agonists eventually used [11].
  • Social feeding is probably due to the sensation of noxious chemicals by ASH and ADL neurons; it requires the genes ocr-2 and osm-9, which encode TRP-related transduction channels, and odr-4 and odr-8, which are required to localize sensory chemoreceptors to cilia [12].
  • PARTICIPANTS: Twenty-six young (mean [SE] age, 28 [2] years) and 22 older (mean [SE] age, 70 [1] years) men, who were healthy and independent based on activities of daily living, physical examinations, and screening tests [13].
  • We identified and cloned a new gene, qui-1, necessary for quinine and SDS avoidance. qui-1 codes for a novel protein with WD-40 domains and which is expressed in the avoidance sensory neurons ASH and ADL [14].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Activities of Daily Living

 

Biological context of Activities of Daily Living

  • Preincubation of macrophage line RAW264 with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or purified protein derivative from Mycobacteria (PPD) for 2 days resulted in an average of 76% or 86% increase, respectively, in ADL of RBC, although there was no stimulation in RBC phagocytosis or in nonspecific or antibody-dependent lysis of tumor targets [20].
  • Significant increases in joint angles (measured as components of joint range of motion after administration of sodium hyaluronate) were observed; activities of daily living also improved significantly (P < 0.05 to P < 0.001) [21].
  • In order to determine an aerobic diving limit (ADL) in emperor penguins (Aptenodytes forsteri), post-dive blood lactate concentrations were measured in penguins foraging at an isolated sea ice hole [22].
  • Many health benefits are associated with musculoskeletal fitness, such as reduced coronary risk factors, increased bone mineral density (reduced risk of osteoporosis), increased flexibility, improved glucose tolerance, and greater success in completion of activities of daily living (ADL) [23].
  • Increasing age, male gender, longer pre-operative delay, a higher American Society of Anesthesiology score, a lower Mental Test score, and a lower activities of daily living (Barthel) score were associated with increased risks of death [24].
 

Anatomical context of Activities of Daily Living

  • The results for Lawton's scale of instrumental activities of daily living were significantly better (indicating greater independence and capacity) when folate intake and serum or erythrocyte folate concentrations were adequate (i.e., folate intake no less than recommended, > or = 14 nmol/L serum folate or > or = 360 nmol/L erythrocyte folate) [25].
  • Incidence of adenosis-like lesions (ADL) in the vaginal epithelium and stratification of the uterine epithelium (UST) were determined in both offspring and neonatally exposed mice at 30 days of age [26].
  • In dives of durations greater than the ADL, the calculated end-of-dive air sac O2 fraction was <4% [27].
  • Twenty-eight (78%) of thirty-six tendons in the glyceryl trinitrate group were asymptomatic with activities of daily living at six months, compared with twenty (49%) of forty-one tendons in the placebo group (p = 0.001, chi-square analysis) [28].
  • As both sex pheromones have been identified in urine, plasma, sweat and saliva of men and (especially hirsute) women we hypothesize that AL and AN are synthesized from ADL via ADN peripherically in tissues rich in 5 alpha-reductase, i.e. skin, axillary sweat glands and probably also the salivary glands [29].
 

Associations of Activities of Daily Living with chemical compounds

 

Gene context of Activities of Daily Living

  • Control EGF + TGF-alpha (-/-) had poor bud outgrowth, especially in the ADL region [34].
  • BASFI scoring was not sufficient in the present form; however, it is one of the candidate functional indexes for evaluating ADL in postoperative patients with OPLL [35].
  • ADL subjects had higher levels of insulin (16.7 +/- 7.5 versus 11.6 +/- 5.9 microIU/mL, P=0.008), soluble TNF receptor superfamily 1B (sTNFRSF1B) (3.3 +/- 0.7 versus 2.7 +/- 0.5 ng/mL, P=0.005), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) (2.6 +/- 2.2 versus 1.3 +/- 1.8 pg/mL, P=0.006) as compared to those of the non-ADL subjects [36].
  • Reduced CRH levels in CSF were found in the patients who showed severe dementia and poor activities of daily living (ADL) [37].
  • Primary generalized dystonia (PGD) associated with the early-onset generalized dystonia gene (DYT1) can cause severe disability, compromising an individual's ability to perform activities of daily living [38].
