External Validation of the Prestroke Independence, Sex, Age, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (ISAN) Score for Predicting Stroke-Associated Pneumonia in the Athens Stroke Registry
(2015)Background and purpose The Prestroke Independence, Sex, Age, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (ISAN) score was developed recently for predicting stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP), one of the most common complications ... -
FibroMeter scores for the assessment of liver fibrosis in patients with autoimmune liver diseases
(2021)Introduction and Objectives: We assessed FibroMeter virus (FMvirus) and FibroMeter vibration-controlled transient elastography (FMVCTE) in 134 patients with autoimmune liver diseases [ALD, autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and ... -
Follow-up on: optimizing lesion detection in small bowel capsule endoscopy and beyond: from present problems to future solutions
(2019)Introduction: This review presents noteworthy advances in clinical and experimental Capsule Endoscopy (CE), focusing on the progress that has been reported over the last 5 years since our previous review on the subject. ... -
Full Blood Count as a Potential Predicting Factor of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy after Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair
(2016)[No abstract available] -
Heparin induced thrombocytopenia diagnosis in cardiac surgery: Is there a role for thromboelastography?
(2008)The aim of the present protocol is to investigate the potency of thromboelastography (TEG) to screen postcardiac heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) patients suspicious for HIT type II, and to differentiate which of ... -
High sensitive cardiac troponin T: Testing the test
(2017)Background High sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-TnT) found its way into everyday clinical routine to diagnose acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, its levels vary considerably based on the underlying pathophysiology ... -
Increased monocyte count and red cell distribution width as prognostic biomarkers in patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
(2021)Background: Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) represents a chronic lung disease with unpredictable course. Methods: We aimed to investigate prognostic performance of complete blood count parameters in IPF. Treatment-naïve ... -
Kinematic predictors of subjective outcome after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: An in vivo motion analysis study
(2012)Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test whether rotational knee kinematics during dynamic pivoting activities are predictive of subjective functional outcome (IKDC, Lysholm), objective laxity scores (KT max), and ... -
Left atrial diameter thresholds and new incident atrial fibrillation in embolic stroke of undetermined source
(2020)Background and purpose: We analyzed consecutive patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) from three prospective stroke registries to compare the prognostic performance of different LAD thresholds for the ... -
Machine-Learning-Derived Model for the Stratification of Cardiovascular risk in Patients with Ischemic Stroke
(2021)Background Stratification of cardiovascular risk in patients with ischemic stroke is important as it may inform management strategies. We aimed to develop a machine-learning-derived prognostic model for the prediction of ... -
Meta-analysis of the accuracy of contrast-enhanced ultrasound for the detection of endoleak after endovascular aneurysm repair
(2019)Objective: The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for detection of endoleak after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). ... -
Mining the Protein Data Bank to improve prediction of changes in protein-protein binding
(2021)Predicting the effect of mutations on protein-protein interactions is important for relating structure to function, as well as for in silico affinity maturation. The effect of mutations on protein-protein binding energy ... -
Missed diagnosis and overtreatment of COPD among smoking primary care population in central Greece: old problems persist
(2018)Background: The diagnosis of COPD is not always consistent with the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) strategy in daily clinical practice, especially in primary care. This study aimed to estimate ... -
Parallel simulations for QUAntifying RElaxation magnetic resonance constants (SQUAREMR): An example towards accurate MOLLI T1 measurements
(2015)Background: T1 mapping is widely used today in CMR, however, it underestimates true T1 values and its measurement error is influenced by several acquisition parameters. The purpose of this study was the extraction of ... -
Predicting LD on the basis of motivation, metacognition, and psychopathology: An ROC analysis
(2006)We examined how strongly motivation, metacognition, and psychopathology acted as predictors of learning disabilities (LD). The results from five studies suggested that level of motivation (as shown through self-efficacy, ... -
Prediction of cell wall sorting signals in gram-positive bacteria with a hidden markov model: Application to complete genomes
(2008)Surface proteins in Gram-positive bacteria are frequently implicated in virulence. We have focused on a group of extracellular cell wall-attached proteins (CWPs), containing an LPXTG motif for cleavage and covalent coupling ... -
Prediction of large vessel occlusions in acute stroke: National institute of health stroke scale is hard to beat
(2016)Objectives: Endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke with a large vessel occlusion was recently shown to be effective. We aimed to develop a score capable of predicting large vessel occlusion eligible for endovascular ... -
A Predictive Model of Mortality in Patients With Bloodstream Infections due to Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae
(2016)Objective To develop a score to predict mortality in patients with bloodstream infections (BSIs) due to carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE). Patients and Methods A multinational retrospective cohort study ... -
Progression of conventional cardiovascular risk factors and vascular disease risk in individuals: insights from the PROG-IMT consortium
(2020)Aims: Averaged measurements, but not the progression based on multiple assessments of carotid intima-media thickness, (cIMT) are predictive of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events in individuals. Whether this is true for ... -
