ACE (I/D) polymorphism and response to treatment in coronary artery disease: a comprehensive database and meta-analysis involving study quality evaluation
(2009)Background: The role of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism in modifying the response to treatment modalities in coronary artery disease is controversial. Methods: PubMed was ... -
Anti-citrullinated peptides as autoantigens in rheumatoid arthritis-relevance to treatment
(2014)Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein/peptide autoantibodies (ACPAs). Citrulline derives from arginine by peptidyl ... -
Association between periodontal disease and stroke
(2012)Objective: Periodontitis is a very common human infection. There is evidence that periodontitis is associated with cerebrovascular disease (CVD) and stroke. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between ... -
Association Between Polymorphisms in MTHFR and APOA5 and Metabolic Syndrome in the Greek Population
(2011)Impaired energy homeostasis and low-grade inflammation have been related to components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) such as dyslipidemia, obesity, and insulin resistance. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the genes ... -
Association of LRRK2 exonic variants with susceptibility to Parkinson's disease: a case-control study
(2011)Background The leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 gene (LRRK2) harbours highly penetrant mutations that are linked to familial parkinsonism. However, the extent of its polymorphic variability in relation to risk of Parkinson's ... -
C677T and A1298C methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression: a meta-analysis of genetic association studies
(2006)A meta-analysis of the previous studies of allelic association between schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression with the C677T and A1298C polymorphisms of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene was ... -
Comparison of blood pressure measurements in children with and without habitual snoring
(2005)Higher or similar systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure has been recorded in children with sleep apnea compared to subjects with primary snoring or in those with primary snoring compared to controls. To investigate the ... -
Effects of walking on heart rate recovery, endothelium modulators and quality of life in patients with heart failure
(2011)Background: Few studies have addressed the impact of moderate unsupervised everyday physical activity in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Design: We investigated the effects of a 12-week walking programme as the ... -
A Field Synopsis and Meta-Analysis of Genetic Association Studies in Peripheral Arterial Disease: The CUMAGAS-PAD Database
(2009)In an electronic search of the literature, the authors systematically retrieved all published studies that investigated genetic susceptibility to peripheral arterial disease (PAD). They created a comprehensive database of ... -
High rates of obesity prevalence in adults living in Central Greece: Data from the ARGOS Study
(2010)OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of obesity in adults of a large region of Central Greece. DESIGN: The target group was adults aged 18 to 79 years who were residents of the region of Thessaly for at least one year. ... -
A meta-analysis of genotypes and haplotypes of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms in acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(2006)A meta-analysis of case-control studies that investigated the association between the C677T and/or A1298C polymorphisms in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was ... -
The relationship between C677T methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism and retinopathy in type 2 diabetes: a meta-analysis
(2005)The association between retincipathy in type 2 diabetes [diabetic retinopathy (DR)] and the C677T polymorphism in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene has been investigated in several case-control studies. ... -
The role of MTHFR gene in multiple myeloma
(2008)Case-control studies investigating associations between multiple myeloma (MM) and the C677T and A1298C polymorphisms of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) have provided controversial results. In an attempt to ... -
Variants of the MTHFR gene and susceptibility to acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children: A synthesis of genetic association studies
(2012)Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a complex disease with genetic background. The genetic association studies (GAS) that investigated the association between ALL and the MTHFR C677T and A1298C gene variants ...
