99mTc sestamibi as a prognostic factor of response to first-line therapy and outcome in patients with malignant lymphoma
(2013)INTRODUCTION: Resistance to chemotherapy poses a major problem in cancer patients. Although of multifactorial origin, some of the implicated mechanisms also interfere with Tc-MIBI uptake and retention in cancer cells. The ... -
Age, Body Mass Index, and Daytime and Nocturnal Hypoxia as Predictors of Hypertension in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea
(2016)A growing body of evidence links obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with hypertension. The authors performed a retrospective cohort study using the University Hospital of Larissa Sleep Apnea Database (1501 patients) to determine ... -
AIR QUALITY PROGNOSIS USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS MODELING IN THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT OF VOLOS, CENTRAL GREECE
(2014)It is well known that natural and anthropogenic emissions of ambient pollutants affect air quality and as a consequence the public health. Various epidemiological studies have identified particulate matter (PM10) and surface ... -
Alterations of microRNAs in solid cancers and their prognostic value
(2010)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are evolutionarily conserved, naturally abundant, small, regulatory non-coding RNAs that inhibit gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in a sequence-specific manner. Each miRNA represses the ... -
aMAP risk score predicts hepatocellular carcinoma development in patients with chronic hepatitis
(2020)Background & Aims: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the leading cause of death in patients with chronic hepatitis. In this international collaboration, we sought to develop a global universal HCC risk score to predict the ... -
Anti-MCV antibodies predict radiographic progression in Greek patients with very early (<3 months duration) rheumatoid arthritis
(2017)This study aimed to assess the diagnostic and prognostic value of anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (MCV) antibodies in very early rheumatoid arthritis (VERA) and in established rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Seventy-one ... -
Anti-Ro52 antibody is highly prevalent and a marker of better prognosis in patients with ovarian cancer
(2021)Background and Aims: Anti-Ro52 antibody (Ab) reactivity is highly prevalent in autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs), mainly Sjögren's syndrome (SjS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but also in other inflammatory ... -
Application of Radiomics and Decision Support Systems for Breast MR Differential Diagnosis
(2018)Over the years, MR systems have evolved from imaging modalities to advanced computational systems producing a variety of numerical parameters that can be used for the noninvasive preoperative assessment of breast pathology. ... -
Assessment of the efficacy and clinical utility of different circulating tumor cell (CTC) detection assays in patients with chemotherapy-naïve advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
(2021)We herein investigated the detection frequency and clinical relevance of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in chemotherapy-naïve stage IIIB/IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), by using the CellSearch and real-time CEACAM5mRNA ... -
Association between TLR2/TLR4 gene polymorphisms and COPD phenotype in a Greek cohort [Assoziation zwischen TLR2-/TLR4-Gen-Polymorphismen und COPD-Phänotyp]
(2017)Background: Considering that the innate immune system plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), we hypothesized that functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ... -
Association of antiviral therapy with reduced disease progression in chronic hepatitis b patients: Results from a nation-wide cohort study
(2016)Background and Aims: Although effective treatment in terms of inducing virological and biochemical response for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is available, its effect on the clinical course of the disease has not yet been ... -
ASTRAL, DRAGON and SEDAN scores predict stroke outcome more accurately than physicians
(2016)Background and purpose: ASTRAL, SEDAN and DRAGON scores are three well-validated scores for stroke outcome prediction. Whether these scores predict stroke outcome more accurately compared with physicians interested in ... -
Awareness of human papilloma virus and cervical cancer prevention among Greek female healthcare workers
(2017)The incidence rate of cervical cancer varies by geographic region, with less developed regions showing the highest rates. All risk factors for cervical cancer are actually preventable if appropriate lifestyle changes are ... -
Baseline neurofilament levels in cerebrospinal fluid do not correlate with long-term prognosis in multiple sclerosis
(2022)Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Up to this day, no single accurate prognostic biomarker has been established in this disease. Neurofilaments are ... -
A Bayesian model for the prediction and early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease
(2017)Alzheimer's disease treatment is still an open problem. The diversity of symptoms, the alterations in common pathophysiology, the existence of asymptomatic cases, the different types of sporadic and familial Alzheimer's ... -
Brain perfusion SPECT with 99mTC-ECD and serum neuron-specific enolase in patients with spontaneous subarachnoid haemorrhage and clinical vasospasm
(2006)Aim: To estimate the association between single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging and neuro-specific enolase (NSE) serum level measurement in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) and also to present ... -
Breast cancer: Follow-up with MRI after therapy
(2009)Breast cancer is the most frequent malignancy in women worldwide. The incidence and mortality rates of the disease have increased the past few years, especially in richer countries that have adopted the mammographic screening ... -
