Correlation of spleen metabolism assessed by 18F-FDG PET with serum interleukin-2 receptor levels and other biomarkers in patients with untreated sarcoidosis
(2016)Background The objective of our study was to assess the possible relationship between splenic F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) uptake and other established biochemical markers of sarcoidosis activity. Patients and methods ... -
Effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme tag single nucleotide polymorphisms on the outcome of patients with traumatic brain injury
(2015)Background Genetic variants appear to influence, at least to some degree, the extent of brain injury and the clinical outcome of patients who have sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Angiotensin-converting enzyme ... -
Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis: Pathophysiology and current treatment options
(2019)Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a life-threatening complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD), which may even occur after patients have switched to hemodialysis (HD) or undergone kidney transplantation. ... -
The genetic map of diabetic nephropathy: Evidence from a systematic review and meta-analysis of genetic association studies
(2020)Despite the extensive efforts of scientists, the genetic background of diabetic nephropathy (DN) has not yet been clarified. To elucidate the genetic variants that predispose to the development of DN, we conducted a ... -
Impact of renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system polymorphisms on myocardial perfusion: Correlations with myocardial single photon emission computed tomography-derived parameters
(2019)Background: Renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) has an important role in atherosclerosis. We investigated the effects of six RAAS gene polymorphisms on myocardial perfusion. Methods and Results: We examined 810 ... -
Interactome of obesity: Obesidome: Genetic obesity, stress induced obesity, pathogenic obesity interaction
(2017)Obesity is a chronic disease of increasing prevalence reaching epidemic proportions. Genetic defects as well as epigenetic effects contribute to the obesity phenotype. Investigating gene (e.g. MC4R defects)-environment ... -
Renin-angiotensin-system inhibition in the context of corona virus disease-19: experimental evidence, observational studies, and clinical implications
(2021)Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV)-2 which binds and enters the host cells through the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)2. While the potential for benefit ... -
Reticuloendothelial system involvement in untreated sarcoidosis patients as assessed by 18F-FDG PET scanning
