Acute hypoadrenocorticism (adrenal crisis) in the dog: a report on six clinical cases
(2011)Medical records of six dogs admitted with acute hypoadrenocorticism were reviewed. All 6 animals were bradycardic and had prolonged capillary refilling time. Hypothermia was detected in 5/6 animals. Clinicopathological ... -
Assessing heterogeneity of lesion enhancement kinetics in dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI for breast cancer diagnosis
(2010)The current study investigates the feasibility of using texture analysis to quantify the heterogeneity of lesion enhancement kinetics in order to discriminate malignant from benign breast lesions. A total of 82 biopsy-proven ... -
Assessment of the left ventricular diastolic reserve in essential hypertension: the acute saline load test
(2001)Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the significance of the development of a restrictive response to an acute saline load, defined as an increase in the ratio of peak early to peak late diastolic transmittal ... -
Autoimmune phenomena in myelodysplastic syndromes: a 4-yr prospective study
(2004)Objective. To determine the clinical aspects and evolution of autoimmune inflammatory manifestations (AIMs) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and ascertain the prognostic implications of these manifestations ... -
Canine acral lick dermatitis syndrome
(2012)Canine acral lick dermatitis is a complicated and challenging syndrome occurring in companion animal dermatology. Skin lesions are caused by intense and prolonged licking of a localized area, usually on the lower parts of ... -
A case of membranous nephropathy associated with Sjogren syndrome, polymyositis and autoimmune hepatitis
(2008)Sjogren syndrome (SS) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocylic infiltration of exocrine glands, especially lacrimal and salivary. The immunologic process which occurs in this syndrome is B cell ... -
Chordomas of the upper cervical spine: radiographic evaluation. Study of two cases and review of the literature
(2008)Chordomas are rare bony tumors, usually involving the skull base and sacrococcygeal spine, while least presented in cervical and thoracic spine. Chordomas of the cervical spine may cause variable neurological symptoms. ... -
Complex regional pain syndrome type I as a consequence of trauma or surgery to upper extremity: management with intravenous regional anaesthesia, using lidocaine and methyloprednisolone
(2011)Complex regional pain syndrome type I (CRPS-I) is a known complication after surgery or trauma to the upper extremity and is difficult to treat. A simple and easily tolerated method of treatment that includes intravenous ... -
Efficient segmentation of urban areas by the VIBI
(2012)Urban populations are expanding rapidly and so are cities. Remote sensing offers a convenient means of monitoring this expansion as it covers a period of 40 years in the case of the LANDSAT satellite. In some parts of the ... -
High-resolution ultrasonography and 3.0 T magnetic resonance imaging in erosive and nodal hand osteoarthritis: high frequency of erosions in nodal osteoarthritis
(2013)Erosive osteoarthritis (EOA) is defined as hand osteoarthritis (OA) with interphalangeal joint erosions on plain radiographs. We sought to find ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features that could ... -
Mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy: An autosomal recessive disorder due to thymidine phosphorylase mutations
(2000)Mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy (MNGIE) is an autosomal recessive disorder defined clinically by severe gastrointestinal dysmotility; cachexia; ptosis, ophthalmoparesis, or both; peripheral neuropathy; ... -
Multiresistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates in intensive care units in Greece
(2003)One hundred and twenty-one clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii recovered from the intensive care units (ICUs) of nine tertiary-care hospitals in Athens, Greece were studied in order to determine whether the ... -
A new RT-PCR assay for the identification of the predominant recombination types in 2C and 3D genomic regions of vaccine-derived poliovirus strains
(2010)In the post-eradication era of wild polioviruses, the only remaining sources of poliovirus infection worldwide would be the vaccine-derived polioviruses (VDPVs). As the preponderance of countries certified to be polio-free ... -

Prevalence and clinical significance of anticardiolipin antibodies in patients with type 1 autoimmune hepatitis
(2005)There are few case reports on the association between autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and anticardiolipin antibodies (anti-CLAbs) and/or antiphospholipid syndrome (APLS). We studied the anti-CLAbs prevalence in AIH and other ... -
Quantifying heterogeneity of lesion uptake in dynamic contrast enhanced MRI for breast cancer diagnosis
(2009)The current study investigates whether texture features extracted from lesion kinetics feature maps can be used for breast cancer diagnosis. Fifty five women with 57 breast lesions (27 benign, 30 malignant) were subjected ... -
