Alpha-1 antichymotrypsin gene signal peptide A/T polymorphism and primary intracerebral hemorrhage
(2008)Background/Aims: Alpha-1 antichymotrypsin (ACT), a serine proteinase inhibitor, has been implicated in vascular pathology. The TT genotype of the ACT signal peptide A/T polymorphism has been reported to confer susceptibility ... -
Angiotensin-converting enzyme tag single nucleotide polymorphisms in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage
(2011)Objectives Studies investigating the association between angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) have provided conflicting results. Moreover, ... -
Changes of plasma fibrinogen and fibrinolysis in response to competition stress in swimming coaches
(2005)Aim. The aim of the paper is to investigate the effects of competition stress in swimming coaches. Methods. The effect of competition stress on fibrinogen and t-PA antigen concentrations was studied in 14 coaches during ... -
Common femoral artery intima-media thickness as marker for cardiovascular disease in asymptomatic adults
(2009)Background: The common carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) is considered as a marker of cardiovascular disease, while the value of the common femoral IMT is not well defined. The aim of the present study was to investigate ... -
Effectiveness of cold water immersion for treating exertional heat stress when immediate response is not possible
(2015)Immediate treatment with cold water immersion (CWI) is the gold standard for exertional heatstroke. In the field, however, treatment is often delayed due to delayed paramedic response and/or inaccurate diagnosis. We examined ... -
The FGA Thr312Ala polymorphism and risk of intracerebral haemorrhage in Polish and Greek populations
(2014)Background and purpose: Spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is the most fatal form of stroke with the highest morbidity and disability rate of all stroke types. Recent data suggest that the genetic background has ... -
Influence of hemodialysis on the mean blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery
(2005)Background: Several effects of hemodialysis, including hemoconcentration, alterations of hemostasis or hemorheology and endothelial activation, could potentially interfere with cerebral blood flow (CBF) regulation. These ... -
Urine Levels of Catecholamines in Greek Children With Obstructive Sleep-Disordered Breathing
(2009)Introduction: Adults with obstructive sleep apnea have increased sympathetic activity It was hypothesized that in children with symptoms of obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), morning urine levels of catecholamines ... -
White Matter Lesions in Femoral Head Osteonecrosis patients: Manifestation of vascular disease or not?
(2011)Background: Osteonecrosis has been associated with the presence of white matter lesions. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between macro- and micro-vascular disease and white matter lesions. ...
