Reversible Cardiomyopathy Associated with Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome Type II
(JAPAN SOC INTERNAL MEDICINE, 2013)
Recovery of the ventricular function in a patient with cardiomyopathy is very rare. Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome is also very rare. We herein report a case of reversed cardiomyopathy associated with autoimmune ...
A high oxidative stress index predicts endothelial dysfunction in young male smokers
(COMENIUS UNIV, 2013)
Experimental studies have shown that smoking was related to endothelial dysfunction via oxidative stress. However, the degree of oxidative stress to be associated with endothelial dysfunction is unknown. Oxidative stress ...
What Is the Meaning of Increased Myocardial Injury Enzymes during Hemodialysis? A Tissue Doppler Imaging Study
(KARGER, 2013)
Background: Cardiovascular death is decreasing in the general population; however, it appears in still higher rates and even increases gradually in hemodialysis (HD) patients. This situation has led to a debate about ...
Lack of Impact of Age on Acute Side Effects and Tolerance of Curative Radiation Therapy
(ASIAN PACIFIC ORGANIZATION CANCER PREVENTION, 2013)
Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of age on the occurrence, severity, and timing of acute side effects related to radiotherapy. Materials and Methods: We analysed the data of 423 patients. Results: Of ...
Protective effect of basic fibroblast growth factor on laser induced retinopathy
(IJO PRESS, 2013)
AIM: To investigate the side effects of the commonly used laser treatment along with testing the neuroprotective effect of bFGF on a potential retinal impairment. METHODS: To do this, 30 chinchilla pigmented adult male ...
Comparing extracorporeal shock wave and hyaluronic acid in a rabbit cartilage defect model: the effects of ESW on cartilage defect
(TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2013)
Aim: To compare the efficiency of extracorporeal shock wave (ESW) treatment with hyaluronic acid (HA) viscosupplementation in an experimental rabbit cartilage defect model. Materials and methods: A total of 24 New Zealand ...
USE OF COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE AMONG PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC DISEASES
(SESTRE MILOSRDNICE UNIV HOSPITAL, 2013)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) and related factors among patients with chronic diseases. A cross-sectional study was carried out in outpatient clinics ...
Inverse eigenvalue problems for a discontinuous Sturm-Liouville operator with two discontinuities
(SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2013)
In this paper, we consider a discontinuous Sturm-Liouville operator with parameter-dependent boundary conditions and two interior discontinuities. We obtain eigenvalues and eigenfunctions together with their asymptotic ...
An approximation to the cross sections of Z (l) boson production at CLIC by using neural networks
(VERSITA, 2013)
In this work, the possible dynamics associated with leptophilic Z (l) boson at CLIC (Compact Linear Collider) have been investigated by using artificial neural networks (ANNs). These hypotetic massive boson Z (l) have been ...
Liver function abnormalities, clinical profile, and outcome in acute decompensated heart failure
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2013)
The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of abnormal liver function tests (LFTs) and the associated clinical profile and outcome(s) in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) patients. Alteration in LFTs is a ...
