Adipokines as mediators of endothelial function and atherosclerosis
(2013)For many decades, adipose tissue was considered as an inactive body compartment that was only used as an energy store. During the recent years, an increasing amount of data has revealed that adipose tissue is a major ... -
Adrenomedullin optimises mortality prediction in COPD patients
(2015)Background: Current multicomponent scores that predict mortality in COPD patients might underestimate the systemic component of COPD. Therefore, we evaluated the accuracy of circulating levels of proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM) ... -
Cholesterol Crystal Embolization: A Possible Complication of Peripheral Endovascular Interventions
(2008)Cholesterol crystal embolization (CCE) is a possible complication of peripheral endovascular interventions. The diagnosis of CCE is suggested by the gradual onset of peripheral cutaneous manifestations (e.g., livedo ... -
CUZD1 and Anti-CUZD1 Antibodies as Markers of Cancer and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
(2013)CUZD1, the CUB, and zona pellucida-like domains-containing protein 1, is a newly identified antigen of pancreatic autoantibodies (PAB) giving a reticulogranular pattern in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases, and in ... -
Diagnostic and prognostic impact of brain natriuretic peptide in cardiac and noncardiac diseases
(2008)OBJECTIVE: Cardiac secretion of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) increases with the progression of congestive heart failure (CHF). The plasma measurement of BNP emerged recently as a useful, cost-effective biomarker for the ... -
The Left Atrium: From the Research Laboratory to the Clinic
(2014)Studies of left atrial (LA) function, until the latter part of the 20th century, were mostly limited to experimental animal models and to studies related to clinical research in the cardiac catheterization laboratory. For ... -
Lessons learnt from the autopsies of 445 cases of sudden cardiac death in adults
(2005)Aim To determine the cause of sudden cardiac death in adults who underwent autopsy. Methods Four hundred and forty-five sudden cardiac deaths occurred within 1 h of the symptoms onset, and all other cardiac and noncardiac ... -
Osteoprotegerin as a Marker of Atherosclerosis in Diabetic Patients
(2013)Atherosclerosis is the principal cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and has many risk factors, among which is diabetes. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a soluble glycoprotein, involved in bone metabolism. OPG is also found in ... -
Serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressants (SSRIs) against atherosclerosis
(2011)Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are a class of drug widely used for treatment of mood disorders, including depression and cardiovascular disease. A search for related articles in the PubMed database was ... -
Size-relative Effectiveness of Clove Oil as an Anaesthetic for Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) and Goldfish (Carassius auratus Linnaeus, 1758)
(2010)The purpose of this work was to investigate the size relative effectiveness of clove oil as an anaesthetic for rainbow trout and goldfish In total 128 rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (two groups of 20 23 and 30 33 cm ... -
Synthesis of Novel Thiopurine Pyranonucleosides: Evaluation of Their Bioactivity
(2015)We report the synthesis of novel thiopurine pyranonucleosides. Direct coupling of silylated 6-mercaptopurine and 6-thioguanine with the appropriate pyranoses 1a-e via Vorbruggen nucleosidation, gave the N-9 linked ...
