Comparison of dialysate and plasma NTproBNP in prediction of clinical outcomes of diabetic and nondiabetic peritoneal dialysis patients
(DUSTRI-VERLAG DR KARL FEISTLE, 2018)
Background: Plasma level of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (P-NTproBNP) is a useful marker in prediction of mortality in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. However, the predictive value of spent dialysate counterpart ...
Processing and characterization of < 001 >-textured Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3-Pb(Yb1/2Nb1/2)O-3-PbTiO3 ceramics
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2017)
0.62[0.75(Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3)-0.25(Pb(Yb1/2Nb1/2)O-3)]-0.38(PbTiO3) ceramics were successfully textured in [001] via the template grain growth method using 1-7 vol% platelike BaTiO3 (BT) templated (the Lotgering factor of ...
Conjunctival impression cytology in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation syndrome
(WILEY, 2006)
In this study, ocular surface changes and tear film functions in patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEXG) and pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome were evaluated. This study is a randomized, double-blind and prospective ...
Effects of ceftriaxone sodium on in vitro gallbladder contractility in guinea pigs
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2004)
Background/Purpose. It has been reported that ceftriaxone may induce the formation of gallstones. Changes of gallbladder motility may play a role in this phenomenon. The present study was designed to analyze the gallbladder ...
Development of a disposable electrochemical sensor for detection of cholesterol using differential pulse voltammetry
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018)
In this study, a sensitive and selective electrochemical sensor was fabricated by usinga screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) for detecting cholesterol. ...

Weight bearing the same day versus non-weight bearing for 4 weeks in Achilles tendon rupture
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2015)
Introduction Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) often occurs in 40- to 50-year-old men. Multiple studies discuss the correct treatment strategy based on surgical or nonsurgical intervention, including early mobilization. We ...
Genetic polymorphisms of GSTs and their association with primary brain tumor incidence
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2005)
Glutathione S-transferases GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 are phase II biotransformation enzymes that function on detoxification of a wide range of exogenous agents including carcinogens. It has been shown that genetic variations ...
Effects of magnetic and electric fields on the hydrogenic impurity in an ellipsoidal parabolic quantum dot
(WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBL CO PTE LTD, 2008)
The binding energy of a hydrogen-like impurity in an ellipsoidal parabolic quantum dot under the magnetic and electric fields have been discussed by using the effective mass approximation and the variational method. We ...
