Epidemiology and importance of renal dysfunction in heart failure patients
(2013)
Renal dysfunction (RD) is a frequent comorbid condition and a major determinant of outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF). It is likely that the etiology of RD in patients with HF is much more complex than we first ...
Annual risk of tuberculosis infection in hellenic air force recruits
(2013)
Background: The annual risk of Tuberculosis infection (ARTI) is a key indicator in epidemiology, of the extent of transmission in a community. There have been several suggested methods in order to evaluate the prevalence ...
Growth hormone response to submaximal doses of ghrelin remains unchanged during the follicular phase of the cycle
(2013)
Background: Previous data have shown that ghrelin-induced growth hormone (GH) secretion is augmented in women by exogenous but not by endogenous estrogens. The purpose of this study was to examine the response of GH to ...
