Causes and Risk Factors of Cerebral Ischemic Events in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Treated with Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants for Stroke Prevention: The RENo Study
(2019)Background and Purpose-Despite treatment with oral anticoagulants, patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) may experience ischemic cerebrovascular events. The aims of this case-control study in patients with AF ... -
Cognitive function and exercise training for chronic renal disease patients: A literature review
(2015)Objective: Cognitive impairment is very often noted in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Even though, exercise is considered to be a quantifiable activity that improves cognition in animals and humans, it seems ... -
External Validation of the PREMISE Score in the Athens Stroke Registry
(2019)Background: A simple score was proposed recently for Predicting Early Mortality from Ischemic Stroke (PREMISE) derived from the Austrian Stroke Unit Registry. This score could be useful in clinical practice and research. ... -
Glucose Derivative Induced Vasculopathy in Children on Chronic Peritoneal Dialysis
(2021)RATIONALE: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an exceedingly high cardiovascular risk; which further increases in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). The pathophysiological role of reactive metabolites ... -
Helicobacter pylori infection and respiratory diseases: A review
(2003)In the past few years, a variety of extradigestive disorders, including cardiovascular, skin, rheumatic and liver diseases, have been associated with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. The activation of inflammatory ... -
How can we effectively address the paraneoplastic dermatomyositis: Diagnosis, risk factors and treatment options
(2017)Purpose: Dermatomyositis (DM) represents an auto-immune inflammatory myopathy. In this review, we analyzed the incidence of DM as a clinical manifestation highlighting the peculiar clinical and treatment characteristics ... -
How peritoneal dialysis transforms the peritoneum and vasculature in children with chronic kidney disease—what can we learn for future treatment?
(2022)Children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) suffer from inflammation and reactive metabolite-induced stress, which massively accelerates tissue and vascular aging. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the preferred dialysis mode in ... -
Individualised radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (rESWT) for symptomatic calcific shoulder tendinopathy: A retrospective clinical study
(2017)Background: A retrospective single centre cohort analysis was performed to evaluate an individualised radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (rESWT) protocol for treatment of symptomatic calcific shoulder tendinopathy. ... -
Lapatinib with whole brain radiotherapy in patients with brain metastases from breast and non-small cell lung cancer: a phase II study of the Hellenic Cooperative Oncology Group (HeCOG)
(2017)Small molecules, mainly tyrosine kinase inhibitors, are currently used in various malignancies. Lapatinib, a dual inhibitor of EGFR/HER2 tyrosine kinases, has demonstrated effectiveness in brain metastases from HER2-overexpressing ... -
Optical coherence tomography angiography reveals vascular alterations in pediatric commotio retinae
(2021)Introduction: Aim of this study is to present the acute and long-term swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography findings in pediatric commotio retinae. Materials and methods: Two children presented with reduced ... -
Platelets in Systemic Sclerosis: the Missing Link Connecting Vasculopathy, Autoimmunity, and Fibrosis?
(2019)Purpose of Review: Platelets are no longer recognized solely as cell fragments regulating hemostasis. They have pleiotropic functions and they are linked directly or indirectly with the three cornerstones of systemic ... -
A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study of Romosozumab for the Treatment of Hip Fractures
(2020)Background:Romosozumab is a bone-forming antibody that increases bone formation and decreases bone resorption. We conducted a double-blinded, randomized, phase-2, dose-finding trial to evaluate the effect of romosozumab ... -
