(HUMANA PRESS INC, 2013)
The aim of this retrospective, multicenter study was to evaluate clinicopathological characteristics, prognostic factors and treatment outcomes of teenage and adult patients with high-grade osteosarcoma. A total of 240 ...
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 ...
THE EFFECT OF LOW DOSE TEICOPLANIN-LOADED ACRYLIC BONE CEMENT ON BIOCOMPATIBILITY OF BONE CEMENT
