Clinical investigation of the transient evoked otoacoustic emission test in Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2008)
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate cochlear damage in Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) infection. Methods: Thirty-two CCHF patients (study group) and 13 healthy people (controls) were included in the ...
Investigation of pituitary functions in patients with acute meningitis: A pilot study
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Objective: Although long-term pituitary consequences of tuberculous meningitis are well documented in the literature, there have been few case reports of pituitary dysfunction after acute bacteria[ or viral meningitis. In ...
Assessment of Alveolar Bone Levels from Bitewing, Periapical and Panoramic Radiographs in Periodontitis Patients
(UNIV WEST INDIES FACULTY MEDICAL SCIENCES, 2008)
The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between loss of radiographic crestal bone height in panoramic, bitewing and periapical radiography and to probe the attachment loss after periodontal treatment. ...
Multi-objective optimization of some process parameters of a multi-gravity separator for chromite concentration
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008)
The multi-gravity separator (MGS) is one of the fine particle mineral concentration machines based on gravity separation. Concentration performance, indicators such as grade and recovery, depends on appropriate selection ...
Sulfotransferase 1A1 (SULT1A1) polymorphism and susceptibility to primary brain tumors
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Purpose Sulfotransferase 1A1 is a member of sulfotransferase family that plays an important role in the biotransformation of numerous carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds through sulfation. The present study has investigated ...
Combination of different size distributions for mineral particles by applying experimentally determined apparent mean shape factor
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2008)
As is well known, the behavior of systems of fine particles is strongly dependent on the size of the individual particles, and the size effects become increasingly important as the particles become progressively smaller. ...
Analysis of vascular endothelial growth factor gene 936 C/T polymorphism in patients with familial Mediterranean fever
(WILEY, 2008)
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a cytokine that promotes endothelial cell proliferation, leucocyte chemotaxis and expression of adhesion molecules and is a major mediator of vascular permeability. It has been ...
Effects of Light Curing Modes and Resin Composites on Temperature Rise under Human Dentin: An in vitro Study
(JAPANESE SOC DENTAL MATERIALS DEVICES, 2008)
The influence of three curing modes of a high-powered LED curing unit on temperature rise under 2-mm-thick dentin was investigated during the polymerization of resin composite samples of Admira, Filtek P60. Premise, Tetric ...
Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene [G894T] polymorphism as a possible risk factor in aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage
(SPRINGER WIEN, 2008)
Background. The exact aetiology, growth and rupture of intracranial aneurysms is unclear. In this study we investigated a possible association between intracranial aneurysm rupture and polymorphism of the endothelial nitric ...
