Maxillary sinus inflammatory disease: Ultrasound compared to computed tomography
(1997)Fifty-six patients (age range, 15-79 yr, average, 37.0±18.5 yr), with a clinical and/or radiological diagnosis of acute maxillary sinusitis, were prospectively studied with ultrasound (US) and computed tomography (CT). The ... -
Novel methods for the mechanical characterization of patches used in carotid artery repair
(2018)Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is one of the approaches available for the treatment of carotid artery disease, with carotid patch angioplasty the pertinent technique mostly preferred by vascular surgeons. This technique ... -
On the magnetic aggregation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles
(2021)Background and objective In-vivo MRI-guided drug delivery concept is a personalized technique towards cancer treatment. A major bottleneck of this method, is the weak magnetic response of nanoparticles. A crucial improvement ... -
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head: Etiology, imaging and treatment
(2007)Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a disabling clinical entity affecting young adults that usually leads to destruction of the hip joint. A high index of suspicion is necessary for the diagnosis due to the insidious onset ... -
Oxidative Stress and Acute Kidney Injury in Critical Illness: Pathophysiologic Mechanisms - Biomarkers - Interventions, and Future Perspectives
(2017)Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a multifactorial entity that occurs in a variety of clinical settings. Although AKI is not a usual reason for intensive care unit (ICU) admission, it often complicates critically ill patients' ... -

Patients Undergoing Surgery for Hip Fractures Suffer from Severe Oxidative Stress as Compared to Patients with Hip Osteoarthritis Undergoing Total Hip Arthroplasty
(2021)Hip fractures are associated with the highest degree of morbidity and mortality of all fractures in elderly patients and pose a major risk for subsequent fractures. Patients with hip fractures also present accelerated bone ... -
Proteomics data of ovine mastitis associated with Mannheimia haemolytica
(2019)Proteomics data have been obtained from experimental mastitis in ewes after intramammary challenge with Mannheimia haemolytica. Animals were sampled before and sequentially after challenge; blood plasma and milk whey samples ... -
Remodeling effects of carotid artery stenting versus endarterectomy with patch angioplasty in terms of morphology and hemodynamics
(2022)Background: Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) remains the first-line treatment option of symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid stenosis, while stenting (CAS) is reserved for selected patients at high surgical risk. Here, we ... -
Role of Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Sepsis and Potential Therapies
(2017)Sepsis is one of the most important causes of death in intensive care units. Despite the fact that sepsis pathogenesis remains obscure, there is increasing evidence that oxidants and antioxidants play a key role. The ... -
Satellite Earth Observation data in epidemiological modeling of malaria, dengue and West Nile Virus: A scoping review
(2019)Earth Observation (EO) data can be leveraged to estimate environmental variables that influence the transmission cycle of the pathogens that lead to mosquito-borne diseases (MBDs). The aim of this scoping review is to ... -
Self-Healing pH- and Enzyme Stimuli-Responsive Hydrogels for Targeted Delivery of Gemcitabine to Treat Pancreatic Cancer
(2018)A novel, multifunctional hydrogel that exhibits a unique set of properties for the effective treatment of pancreatic cancer (PC) is presented. The material is composed of a pentablock terpolypeptide of the type ... -
Simulation of magnetic nanoparticles crossing through a simplified blood-brain barrier model for Glioblastoma multiforme treatment
(2021)Background and Objectives: Glioblastoma multiforme is considered as one of the most aggressive types of cancer, while various treatment techniques have been proposed. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) loaded with drug and ... -
Systemic Redox Imbalance in Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review
(2016)Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) experience imbalance between oxygen reactive species (ROS) production and antioxidant defenses leading to cell and tissue damage. However, it remains unclear at which stage of ... -
