Kinetics of circulating immunoglobulin M in sepsis: Relationship with final outcome
(2013)
Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the kinetics of immunoglobulin M (IgM) during the different stages of sepsis. Methods: In this prospective multicenter study, blood sampling for IgM measurement was ...
Association of specific HLA phenotypes with left ventricular mass and carotid intima-media thickness in hypertensives
(2001)
The aim of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that the expression of certain HLA antigens may constitute a risk marker for cardiovascular hypertrophy in subjects with arterial hypertension. We examined 158 subjects ...
Intrafamilial spread of hepatitis B virus infection in Greece
(2005)
Objective: No study has investigated the intrafamilial spread of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in Greece. We conducted a 9-year prospective study to determine the rate of HBV spread in family members when a member is identified ...
Uncommon leg ulcers in the lower extremity
(2007)
Objective: To determine the prevalence of uncommon ulcers, unrelated to venous or arterial etiology, in patients presenting to vascular clinics. Methods: This was a multicenter prospective study of consecutive patients ...
Dense genotyping of immune-related disease regions identifies nine new risk loci for primary sclerosing cholangitis
(2013)
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a severe liver disease of unknown etiology leading to fibrotic destruction of the bile ducts and ultimately to the need for liver transplantation. We compared 3,789 PSC cases of ...
Total Hip Arthroplasty for Congenital Hip Disease
(2004)
Background: It is generally agreed that the clinical and radiographic results of total hip replacement performed for degenerative arthritis secondary to congenital hip disease vary depending on the severity of the anatomical ...
Primary extranodal non Hodgkin's lymphoma of the head and neck in adults: A clinicopathological comparison between tonsillar and non tonsillar lymphomas
(1998)
Primary extranodal NHL of the head and neck (HN-NHL) accounts for 10-20% of all cases of NHL. Despite their frequency, the natural history and biological behaviour of these lymphomas is poorly understood. In this study we ...
The protective effect of LRRK2 p.R1398H on risk of Parkinson's disease is independent of MAPT and SNCA variants
(2014)
The best validated susceptibility variants for Parkinson's disease are located in the α-synuclein (SNCA) and microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) genes. Recently, a protective p.N551K-R1398H-K1423K haplotype in the ...
Association of α-synuclein Rep1 polymorphism and Parkinson's disease: Influence of Rep1 on age at onset
(2006)
The α-synuclein Rep1 polymorphism was studied in patients and controls in an ethnic Greek population. There was an association of allele 2 with risk of Parkinson's disease (PD; adjusted odd ratio = 3.25; 95% CI = 1.80-5.87). ...
