The association between plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) levels, PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism, and myocardial infarction: a Mendelian randomization meta-analysis
Nikolopoulos, G. K.; Bagos, P. G.; Tsangaris, I.; Tsiara, C. G.; Kopterides, P.; Vaiopoulos, A.; Kapsimali, V.; Bonovas, S.; Tsantes, A. E. (2014)Background: The circulating levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) are increased in individuals carrying the 4G allele at position -675 of the PAI-1 gene. In turn, overexpression of PAI-1 has been found ... -
Effect of angiotensin converting enzyme gene I/D polymorphism and its expression on clinical outcome in acute respiratory distress syndrome
Tsantes, A. E.; Kopterides, P.; Bonovas, S.; Bagos, P.; Antonakos, G.; Nikolopoulos, G. K.; Gialeraki, A.; Kapsimali, V.; Kyriakou, E.; Kokori, S.; Dima, K.; Armaganidis, A.; Tsangaris, I. (2013)Background. The role of the D allele of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene I/D polymorphism in the clinical outcomes of patients with acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) remains ... -
The effect of homocysteine on the clinical outcomes of ventilated patients with severe sepsis
Tsantes, A.; Tsangaris, I.; Nikolopoulos, G.; Bagos, P.; Kopterides, P.; Antonakos, G.; Dimopoulou, I.; Vrioni, G.; Kapsimali, V.; Dima, K.; Armaganidis, A.; Travlou, A. (2010)Background. There is considerable evidence that elevated plasma homocysteine levels are associated with a prothrombotic milieu, whereas activation of the coagulation cascade is an important component of the pathogenesis ... -
The Effect of Plasma Homocysteine Levels on Clinical Outcomes of Patients With Acute Lung Injury/Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Tsangaris, I.; Tsantes, A.; Bagos, P.; Nikolopoulos, G.; Kroupis, C.; Kopterides, P.; Dimopoulou, I.; Orfanos, S.; Kardoulaki, A.; Chideriotis, S.; Travlou, A.; Armaganidis, A. (2009)Background: Several reports have shown that homocysteine promotes thrombosis by disturbing the procoagulant-anticoagulant balance, whereas alterations in coagulation and fibrinolysis have been suggested as important ... -
VENOUS OXYGEN SATURATION AND LACTATE GRADIENT FROM SUPERIOR VENA CAVA TO PULMONARY ARTERY IN PATIENTS WITH SEPTIC SHOCK
Kopterides, P.; Bonovas, S.; Mavrou, I.; Kostadima, E.; Zakynthinos, E.; Armaganidis, A. (2009)Monitoring of central venous oxygen saturation (S(cv)O(2)) is considered comparable with mixed venous oxygen saturation (S(v)O(2)) in the initial resuscitation phase of septic shock. Our aim was to assess their agreement ...
