(E-CENTURY PUBLISHING CORP, 2016)
Gastric cancer is the third highest malignity for cancer-related mortality worldwide. Reduction of morbidity and mortality requires early recognition and management of gastric cancer. In recent years, biomarkers reflecting ...
The association between serum serglycin level and coronary artery disease severity in patients with stable angina pectoris
(VIA MEDICA, 2018)
Background: Serglycin plays a key role in the inflammatory status however the relationship between coronary artery disease (CAD) and serglycin is still unknown. Aim: In this study, we aimed to investigate association of ...

(EKIN TIBBI YAYINCILIK LTD STI-EKIN MEDICAL PUBL, 2011)
Background: The aim of the study was to reveal the effect of the C3435T MDR-1 gene polymorphism in AAA, which has been postulated to play a role in the inflammatory process and protection against oxidative stress. Methods: ...
The Relationship Between Mean Platelet Volume Levels and the Inflammation in Helicobacter Pylori Gastritis
(NATL MED ASSOC, 2010)
Helicobacter pylori is a cause of chronic gastritis. Mean platelet volume (MPV) has been started to be used as a simple inflammatory indicator in some diseases. We have aimed especially to investigate the usability of MPV ...
