Differential diagnosis of hyperkalemia: an update to a complex problem
(2012)Hyperkalemia is a relative common and sometimes life threatening electorlyte disorder. Although its symptomatic treatment is relatively easy, since precise therapeutic algorithms are available, its differential diagnosis ... -
Oxidative stress in Cyprinus carpio to analyze microcystin impact in eutrophic shallow lakes: a preliminary study
(2012)Microcystins (MCYSTs) are toxins produced by cyanobacteria in aquatic environment and are of high potential risk to aquatic organisms. The physiological responses and pathobiological developments that they elicit in fish ... -
Perilipin-1 in Hemodialyzed Patients: Association With History of Coronary Heart Disease and Lipid Profile
(2012)Perilipin-1 surrounds lipid droplets in both adipocytes and in atheroma plaque foam cells and controls access of lipases to the lipid core. In hemodialysis (HD) patients, dyslipidemia, malnutrition, inflammation and ... -
Plasma Angiogenin and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A Among Hemodialysis Patients
(2012)Introduction. Angiogenesis plays a role in the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease (CHD) and diabetes mellitus (DM) pathology, and certain angiogenic factors are increased by inflammation. The aim of this study was to ... -
Plasma endothelin-1 in hemodialysis treatment - the influence of hypertension
(2004)In patients on chronic hemodialysis hypotensive episodes are frequently encountered during the course of treatment and the prevalence of atherosclerosis is increased. Endothelin-1 (ET-1), an endothelium-derived peptide ... -
Plasma Serotonin and Markers of Bone Formation and Bone Resorption in Hemodialysis Patients
(2013)Introduction. Serotonin receptors are present in osteoblasts and osteoclasts, and serotonin affects bone metabolism. The association of plasma serotonin with markers of bone formation and bone resorption in hemodialysis ... -
Prevalence of occult hepatitis B virus infection in haemodialysis patients from central Greece
(2010)AIM: To assess the hepatitis B virus (HBV)-DNA and the prevalence of occult HBV infection in end-stage renal failure (ESRF) patients from Central Greece. METHODS: Sera from 366 ESRF patients attending five out of six ... -
Relationship between vitamin D and muscle size and strength in patients on hemodialysis
(2007)Objective: Vitamin D has various actions in skeletal muscle. The purpose of this study was to compare lower-limb muscle size and strength in hemodialysis (HD) patients being treated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (calcitriol) ... -
The Role of Hepcidin in Iron Homeostasis and Anemia in Hemodialysis Patients
(2009)Anemia is a common complication in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Despite the great success of recombinant human erythropoietin in clinical practice, resistance to this therapy is common. Additionally, nephrologists frequently ... -
Serum osteoprotegerin is markedly increased and may contribute to decreased blood T cell count in hemodialysis patients
(2013)Acquired immunity is impaired in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and decreased T cell number may contribute. Receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) are expressed in cells of the ...
