APOE gene polymorphisms and response to statin therapy
(2009)Published studies investigating the role of APOE gene on lipid response (total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides) to statin treatment ... -
Association between dietary intake and nutritional status in Eastern Mediterranean patients receiving hemodialysis
(2020)BACKGROUND: Studies on hemodialysis (HD) patients reveal suboptimal dietary intakes, which have been linked to protein-energy wasting and its detrimental consequences. OBJECTIVE: Given the paucity of data regarding nutrient ... -
Association of serum calprotectin (S100A8/A9) concentrations and idiopathic hyperlipidemia in Miniature Schnauzers
(2019)Background: Idiopathic hyperlipidemia (IH) is a common condition in Miniature Schnauzers (MS). Studies in people have linked IH to low-grade inflammation, which plays an important role in the pathogenesis of IH complications. ... -
Associations among serum insulin, calprotectin, and C-reactive protein concentrations in Miniature Schnauzers with idiopathic hyperlipidemia before and after feeding an ultra-low-fat diet
(2022)Background: Miniature Schnauzers (MS) commonly have idiopathic hypertriglyceridemia (HTGL), which is associated with insulin resistance (IR) and a subclinical inflammatory phenotype. Objectives: Determine the association ... -
A case of membranous nephropathy associated with Sjögren syndrome, polymyositis and autoimmune hepatitis
(2008)Sjögren syndrome (SS) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of exocrine glands, especially lacrimal and salivary. The immunologic process which occurs in this syndrome is B cell ... -
Cholesterol metabolism related genes in osteoarthritis
(2021)Cholesterol homeostasis plays a significant role in skeletal development and the dysregulation of cholesterol-related mechanism has been shown to be involved in the development of cartilage diseases including osteoarthritis ... -
Circulating biomarkers for the prediction of abdominal aortic aneurysm growth
(2021)Background: Abdominal aortic aneurysm represents a distinct group of vascular lesions, in terms of surveillance and treatment. Screening and follow-up of patients via duplex ultrasound has been well established and proposed ... -
Comparative Efficacy of 5 Exercise Types on Cardiometabolic Health in Overweight and Obese Adults: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis of 81 Randomized Controlled Trials
(2022)Background: Although regular exercise is recommended for preventing and treating overweight/obesity, the most effective exercise type for improving cardiometabolic health in individuals with overweight/obesity remains ... -
Comparative Efficacy of Citrullus Colocynthis Fruit Powder and Popular Antibiotic Growth Promoters in Broiler Diet
(2021)The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Citrullus colocynthis fruit powder (CCFP) as alternative to antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) in broiler diets. Four hundred d-old Ross-308 broiler chicks were ... -
Convergence of linkage, gene expression and association data demonstrates the influence of the RAR-related orphan receptor alpha (RORA) gene on neovascular AMD: A systems biology based approach
(2010)To identify novel genes and pathways associated with AMD, we performed microarray gene expression and linkage analysis which implicated the candidate gene, retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor alpha (RORA, 15q). ... -
Determinants of cognitive performance and decline in 20 diverse ethno-regional groups: A COSMIC collaboration cohort study
(2019)Background: With no effective treatments for cognitive decline or dementia, improving the evidence base for modifiable risk factors is a research priority. This study investigated associations between risk factors and ... -
Effect of Feeding Linseed Oil and Vitamin A on Production Performance, Egg Characteristics and Egg Yolk Fatty Acids in Laying Hens under Sub-tropical Conditions
(2022)In the present study, linseed oil and vitamin A were fed to the laying hens during hot summer months to produce n-3 PUFA-enriched eggs. Two hundred and forty White Leghorn hens were randomly divided into 24 replicates and ... -
Efficacy of Mannan-Oligosaccharides as Alternatives to Commonly Used Antibiotic Growth Promoters in Broilers
(2021)The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) as alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) in broiler diets. Two hundred day-old Hubbard broiler chicks were randomly ... -
Endocrine resistance and epigenetic reprogramming in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer
(2021)Despite the enormous advances during the last three decades, breast cancer continues to be the most frequent type of cancer as well as one of the most frequent cancer-related causes of death in women. Therapeutic management ... -
Evidence of deregulated cholesterol efflux in abdominal aortic aneurysm
(2016)Previous studies indicated that lipids may be associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA); however the molecular mechanism involved is unclear. Our study aimed to investigate the expression pattern of cholesterol efflux ... -
Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation programs in the era of COVID-19: a critical review
(2021)Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Increased rates of morbidity and mortality have led to the increased need for the implementation of secondary prevention interventions. ... -
