BUFET: Boosting the unbiased miRNA functional enrichment analysis using bitsets
(2017)Background: A group of miRNAs can regulate a biological process by targeting genes involved in the process. The unbiased miRNA functional enrichment analysis is the most precise in silico approach to predict the biological ... -
Chronic administration of plasma from exercised rats to sedentary rats does not induce redox and metabolic adaptations
(2020)The present study aimed to investigate whether endurance exercise-induced changes in blood plasma composition may lead to adaptations in erythrocytes, skeletal muscle and liver. Forty sedentary rats were randomly distributed ... -
Comparative proteomic analysis of hypertrophic chondrocytes in osteoarthritis
(2015)Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multi-factorial disease leading progressively to loss of articular cartilage and subsequently to loss of joint function. While hypertrophy of chondrocytes is a physiological process ... -
A comprehensive analysis of antigen-specific autoimmune liver disease related autoantibodies in patients with multiple sclerosis
(2020)Introduction: Abnormal liver function tests are frequently seen in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and their origin at times is attributed to the possible co-occurrence or the de novo induction of autoimmune liver ... -
Concurrent cardiac sarcoidosis and obstructive sleep apnea presenting as arrhythmias
(2020)Background: Cardiac involvement is a rare and potentially fatal presentation of sarcoidosis. Obstructive sleep apnea may complicate sarcoidosis. Case presentation: We report a case of a sarcoidosis patient with cardiac ... -
Control of paratuberculosis: Who, why and how. A review of 48 countries
(2019)Paratuberculosis, a chronic disease affecting ruminant livestock, is caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp paratuberculosis (MAP). It has direct and indirect economic costs, impacts animal welfare and arouses public health ... -
Correction: A proteome-wide immuno-mass spectrometric identification of serum autoantibodies (Clinical Proteomics (2019) 16 (25) DOI: 10.1186/s12014-019-9246-0)
(2019)In the original version of the article [1], an error was noticed under the heading "Immunoprecipitation on protein G magnetic beads" in "Methods" section. The unit symbol in the text that reads as "> 27 μl human" should ... -
Diabetic patient assessment of chronic illness care using PACIC+
(2020)Background: The Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness Care plus is used in order to assess whether provided care is congruent with the Chronic Care Model, according to patients. The purpose of this study was to correlate ... -
Effect of crocin on antioxidant gene expression, fibrinolytic parameters, redox status and blood biochemistry in nicotinamide-streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
(2020)Background: Diabetes is regarded as an epidemiological threat for the twenty-first century. Phytochemicals with known pharmaceutical properties have gained interest in the field of alleviating secondary complications of ... -
Effect of diet supplementation with chelated zinc, copper and manganese on hoof lesions of loose housed sows
(2016)Background: Hoof lesions are very common among sows and have been associated with lameness, early removal and compromised welfare and productivity. Although housing conditions and management can have an external effect on ... -
Effect of exogenous estrogens and progestogens on the course of migraine during reproductive age: A consensus statement by the European Headache Federation (EHF) and the European Society of Contraception and Reproductive Health (ESCRH)
(2018)We systematically reviewed data about the effect of exogenous estrogens and progestogens on the course of migraine during reproductive age. Thereafter a consensus procedure among international experts was undertaken to ... -
Enterobacter sp. AA26 gut symbiont as a protein source for Mediterranean fruit fly mass-rearing and sterile insect technique applications
(2019)Background: Insect species have established sophisticated symbiotic associations with diverse groups of microorganisms including bacteria which have been shown to affect several aspects of their biology, physiology, ecology ... -
Erratum: "The whole genome sequence of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), reveals insights into the biology and adaptive evolution of a highly invasive pest species", [Genome Biol. (2016), 17, (192)]
(2017)After publication of our recent article [1] we noticed that Monica Munoz-Torres had been omitted from the author list. We have now added her, and the updated Funding and Authors' contributions sections are below. © The ... -
Estimating the agreement between the metabolic rate calculated from prediction equations and from a portable indirect calorimetry device: An effort to develop a new equation for predicting resting metabolic rate
(2018)Background: Many studies have been performed over time in order to determine the reliability of metabolic rate prediction equations. Purpose: To evaluate the agreement, in terms of bias, absolute bias and accuracy between ... -
Factors associated with leisure-time physical activity among patients undergoing hemodialysis
(2015)Background: End-stage renal disease patients are characterized by low levels of physical activity, especially during leisure time. However, the recognition of variables associated with patterns of physical activity in this ... -
