Effect of fatigue on tibial rotation after single- and double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A 3-dimensional kinematic and kinetic matched-group analysis
(2012)
Background: Fatigue is an extrinsic factor adversely affecting joint proprioception and neuromuscular response, thereby increasing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) strain and injury risk. The effectiveness of the single- ...
Kinematic predictors of subjective outcome after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: An in vivo motion analysis study
(2012)
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test whether rotational knee kinematics during dynamic pivoting activities are predictive of subjective functional outcome (IKDC, Lysholm), objective laxity scores (KT max), and ...
An NOS3 haplotype is protective against hypertension in a caucasian population
(2010)
The endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene (NOS3) has been implicated in the development of hypertension, although the specific role of variants and haplotypes has not been clarified. In this study, the association of three ...
Efficacy of an AS03 A-adjuvanted split H5N1 influenza vaccine against an antigenically distinct low pathogenic H5N1 virus in pigs
(2012)
We used the pig model of influenza to examine the efficacy of an AS03 A-adjuvanted split H5N1 (A/Indonesia/05/2005) vaccine against challenge with a low pathogenic (LP) H5N1 avian influenza (AI) virus (duck/Minnesota/1525/1981) ...
Association of anti-CCP positivity and carriage of TNFRII susceptibility variant with anti-TNF-α response in rheumatoid arthritis
(2011)
Objective: To investigate the possible influence of tumour necrosis factoralpha (TNF), TNF receptor I (TNFRI) and TNF receptor II (TNFRII) gene polymorphisms on anti-TNF treatment responsiveness, stratified by autoantibody ...
'Single puncture' mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy under assisted local anesthesia
(2010)
Objective: To evaluate the possibility of performing minipercutaneous nephrolithotomy (mini-PCNL) under assisted local anesthesia in a selected group of patients. Patients and Methods: Twenty-one patients with unilateral ...
Performance of EuroSCORE II compared to EuroSCORE I in predicting operative and mid-term mortality of patients from a single center after combined coronary artery bypass grafting and aortic valve replacement
(2014)
Objective: The performance comparison of the recently introduced European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation II in predicting operative as well as mid-term mortality, with its previous version in patients after ...
Efficient liver gene transfer with foamy virus vectors
(2013)
Liver gene transfer offers hope for the correction of genetic and acquired disorders. Efficient gene transfer in large animals can be obtained with hydrodynamic gene transfer (HGT), a method that can achieve sufficient ...
Non-replication of association for six polymorphisms from meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies of Parkinson's disease: Large-scale collaborative study
(2010)
Early genome-wide association (GWA) studies on Parkinson's disease (PD) have not been able to yield conclusive, replicable signals of association, perhaps due to limited sample size. We aimed to investigate whether association ...
Biochemical and genetic evidence for the presence of multiple phosphatidylinositol- and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipases C in Tetrahymena
(2011)
Eukaryotic phosphoinositide-specific phospholipases C (PI-PLC) specifically hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2], produce the Ca2+-mobilizing agent inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, and regulate ...
