Elevated preoperative suPAR is a strong and independent risk marker for postoperative complications in patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery (SPARSE)
(2022)Background: Patients undergoing major surgery are often at risk of developing postoperative complications. We investigated whether a preoperative marker of chronic inflammation, soluble urokinase plasminogen activator ... -
Going retro: Oxidative stress biomarkers in modern redox biology
(2016)The field of redox biology is inherently intertwined with oxidative stress biomarkers. Oxidative stress biomarkers have been utilized for many different objectives. Our analysis indicates that oxidative stress biomarkers ... -
Health effects of genetically modified food
(2009)As genetically modified (GM) foods are starting to intrude in the diet concerns have been expressed regarding GM food safety. This is a review of these concerns, and the limitations of the procedures followed in the ... -
The impact of pneumatic tube system on routine laboratory parameters: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2017)Pneumatic tube system (PTS) is a widely used method of transporting blood samples in hospitals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the PTS transport in certain routine laboratory parameters as it has been ... -
In vitro and in vivo assessment of vitamin A encapsulation in a liposome–protein delivery system
(2019)Vitamin A (VA) is an essential nutrient needed in small amounts by humans and supports a wide range of biological actions. Retinol, the most common and most biologically active form of VA has also been found to inhibit ... -
Induced dormancy in Indian meal moth Plodia interpunctella (HÜbner) and its impact on the quality improvement for mass rearing in parasitoid Habrobracon hebetor (Say)
(2022)A steady supply of hosts at the susceptible stage for parasitism is a major component of mass rearing parasitoids for biological control programs. Here we describe the effects of storing 5th instar Plodia interpunctella ... -
Mobility and potential bioavailability of antimony in contaminated soils: Short-term impact on microbial community and soil biochemical functioning
(2020)Antimony (Sb) and its compounds are emerging priority pollutants which pose a serious threat to the environment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the short-term fate of antimonate added to different soils (S1 and S2) ... -
Modulators of actin-myosin dissociation: Basis for muscle type functional differences during fatigue
(2017)The muscle types present with variable fatigue tolerance, in part due to the myosin isoform expressed. However, the critical steps that define “fatigability” in vivo of fast vs. slow myosin isoforms, at the molecular level, ... -
Mycophenolate for the treatment of autoimmune hepatitis: Prospective assessment of its efficacy and safety for induction and maintenance of remission in a large cohort of treatment-naïve patients
(2011)Background & Aims: Standard therapy for autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is corticosteroids with or without azathioprine. However, 20% of patients do not respond or are intolerant to conventional treatment. Therefore, we evaluated ... -
Physical Fitness Differences, Amenable to Hypoxia-Driven and Sarcopenia Pathophysiology, between Sleep Apnea and COVID-19
(2022)Handgrip strength is an indirect indicator of physical fitness that is used in medical rehabilitation for its potential prognostic value. An increasing number of studies indicate that COVID-19 survivors experience impaired ... -
Prevalence and determinants of type 2 diabetes mellitus in a Greek adult population
(2016)The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is increasing worldwide reaching epidemic proportions. The aim of the present study was to estimate the prevalence of DM in Thessaly, a large region of Central Greece, and to ... -
