Vascular pressure monitorization for necessity of vascular augmentation in a rat extended abdominal perforator flap model
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2012)
In case blood perfusion compromises, vascular enhancement with arterial supercharge or venous superdrainage can increase viability of the flap. In this study, vascular pressure monitorization was used in a rat extended ...
Serum Levels of Angiopoietin-Related Growth Factor (AGF) Are Increased in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2012)
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a frequent reproductive and metabolic disorder associated with insulin resistance. Recently, angiopoietins were identified in the systemic circulation and have been designated ...
Creating infrastructure for seismic microzonation by Geographical Information Systems (GIS): A case study in the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ)
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2012)
Although there are many studies for seismic microzonation in the literature, these studies have not covered the whole seismic microzonation processes. Moreover, they have not sufficiently focused on the important subjects, ...
In vitro amoebicidal activity of four Peucedanum species on Acanthamoeba castellanii cysts and trophozoites
(SPRINGER, 2012)
Amoebic keratitis is difficult to treat without total efficacy in some patients because of cysts, which is less susceptible than trophozoites to the usual treatments. The aim of this study is to evaluate the in vitro ...
Investigation of wound healing in rat lung tissues in the postpartum period
(SPANDIDOS PUBL LTD, 2012)
To assess the wound healing capabilities of damaged lung tissue in the postpartum period, we investigated the parameters related to wound healing in a rat model of lung damage. Rats were divided into six groups: IA, I B, ...
Microplate boundaries as obstacles to pre-earthquake strain transfer in Western Turkey: Inferences from continuous geochemical monitoring
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2012)
Warm and hot spring water chemistry changes as well as soil gas radon release patterns have been monitored in Western Turkey, alongside regional seismicity, providing a multi-disciplinary approach. From January 2009 to May ...
Haptoglobin and SAA concentrations and enzyme activities in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids from calves with bronchopneumonia
(ECOLE NATIONALE VETERINAIRE TOULOUSE, 2012)
The aim of this study was to evidence acute phase response in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids (BALF) from calves with bronchopneumonia by measuring Haptoglobin and Serum Amyloid A (SAA) concentrations and some enzyme activities. ...
Influence of smoking on interleukin-1beta level, oxidant status and antioxidant status in gingival crevicular fluid from chronic periodontitis patients before and after periodontal treatment
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2012)
Toker H, Akpinar A, Aydin H, Poyraz O. Influence of smoking on interleukin-1beta level, oxidant status and antioxidant status in gingival crevicular fluid from chronic periodontitis patients before and after periodontal ...
Genetic algorithms based logic-driven fuzzy neural networks for stability assessment of rubble-mound breakwaters
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)
This study focuses on the further development of fuzzy neural network ('FNN') models for the prediction of stability numbers for the design of rubble mound breakwaters. It introduces two new FNN models namely: (i) the ...
Analysis of patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding: a study from Anatolian, Turkey Seasonal Distribution of Gastrointestinal Bleeding
(DRUNPP-SARAJEVO, 2012)
The aim of our study was to analyze if we have a seasonal or circadian distribution of acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB) patients, and to evaluate the laboratory and demographic risk factors on mortality rates. ...
