Anti-HDV immunoglobulin M testing in hepatitis delta revisited: correlations with disease activity and response to pegylated interferon-alpha 2a treatment
(2012)Background: The role of anti-HDV immunoglobulin M (IgM) testing in patients receiving pegylated interferon-alpha therapy for hepatitis delta is unknown. We performed anti-HDV IgM testing in a well defined cohort of HDVinfected ... -
Applicability of the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS) in the Greek educational setting
(2008)The present study examined the applicability of the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS) within the Greek cultural context. Sixty-seven kindergarten teachers filled in a Greek version of the STRS concerning 403 ... -
Assessing the zooplankton community and environmental factors in a Mediterranean wetland
(2010)Mediterranean wetlands represent unique repositories of biodiversity, but these ecosystems are increasingly threatened by human-induced habitat loss. Seventy percent of Greek wetlands (ponds, mires, marshes, etc.) have ... -
Association between habitual physical activity and brown adipose tissue activity in individuals undergoing PET-CT scan
(2015)ObjectiveAugmented brown adipose tissue (BAT) mass and activity lead to higher basic metabolic rate which is beneficial against obesity. Our aim was to investigate whether habitual (i.e. usual weekly participation) physical ... -
Changes in feeding behavior as possible indicators for the automatic monitoring of health disorders in dairy cows
(2008)Changes in short-term feeding behavior of dairy cows that occur with the onset of the health disorders ketosis, acute locomotory problems, and chronic lameness were investigated using data collected during previous ... -
Coagulase-negative staphylococcal bloodstream and prosthetic-device-associated infections: the role of biofilm formation and distribution of adhesin and toxin genes
(2014)Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS), especially Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus haemolyticus, have emerged as opportunistic pathogens in immunocompromised patients and those with indwelling medical devices. ... -
Convective and ventilation transfers in greenhouses, part 2: Determination of the distributed greenhouse climate
(2002)In this paper, the characterisation and modelling of the most relevant convective transfers contributing to the description of the distributed greenhouse climate are studied in detail. After a brief review of the equations ... -
Cross-transmission of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clonal strains causing episodes of sepsis in a trauma intensive care unit
(2008)OBJECTIVE. To investigate the mode of transmission of imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strains causing episodes of sepsis. SETTING. A 7-bed trauma intensive care unit (ICU) in an orthopedic hospital in Greece. ... -
Cyclocephala (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Dynastinae) evolution in Lesser West Indies indicates a Northward colonization by C. tridentata
(2012)A dual cytogenetic and molecular analysis was performed in four species of Cyclocepala (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Dynastinae) from Lesser Antilles (Martinique, Dominica and Guadeloupe). Two species/sub-species, C. mafaffa ... -
Different phytoplankton descriptors show asynchronous changes in a shallow urban lake (L. Kastoria, Greece) after sewage diversion
(2013)Phytoplankton long-term changes were examined in a shallow urban lake (L. Kastoria, Greece) after sewage diversion in nine distinct years from 1994-2010. Using different levels of phytoplankton descriptors (diversity, ... -
Dissemination of clonally unrelated erythromycin- and glycopeptide-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolates in a tertiary Greek hospital
(2001)Between September 1999 to February 2001, 25 glycopeptide-resistant Enterococcus faecium (GRE) isolates were recovered from a Greek hospital. The isolates exhibited 13 distinct chromosomal macrorestriction types by pulsed-field ... -
Early abnormal amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) is associated with adverse short-term outcome in premature infants
(2012)Background: In preterm infants with IVH the electrocortical background activity is affected and there is a correlation between the severity of cerebral injury to the degree of depression, however the usefulness of the early ... -
Eating habits and factors affecting food choice of adolescents living in rural areas
(2013)OBJECTIVE: To establish factors that affect food choices among adolescents living in rural areas and to identify their food choices. DESIGN: A random sample of adolescents living in a Greek rural area (n=382) aged 12-18 ... -
