Tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome in a 52-year-old female: A case report and review of the literature
(2006)
Tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome is a rare entity first described in 1975, affecting mainly young women and adolescents. We present a case of a 52-year-old female patient (one of the oldest in the ...
A large-scale genetic association study to evaluate the contribution of Omi/HtrA2 (PARK13) to Parkinson's disease
(2011)
High-profile studies have provided conflicting results regarding the involvement of the Omi/HtrA2 gene in Parkinson's disease (PD) susceptibility. Therefore, we performed a large-scale analysis of the association of common ...
Determinants of healthcare utilization in Greece: Implications for decision-making
(2007)
Objective: To explore factors influencing the utilization of primary and secondary healthcare in Greece. Methods: A national, geographically stratified sample was randomly selected. From November 2001 to March 2002, 5000 ...
Baseline levels of CD8+ T cells against survivin and survivin-2B in the blood of lung cancer patients and cancer-free individuals
(2008)
Survivin and its variant survivin-2B have been considered as potential candidates for cancer immunotherapy. The magnitude however of spontaneously occurring CD8+ T cells circulating precursor CTLs (pCTL), has never been ...
Minimally invasive and selective hydrodynamic gene therapy of liver segments in the pig and human
(2008)
This paper highlights our experience of the transfer of hydrodynamic gene therapy (HGT) from the large animal, the pig, into clinical practice. The modification of balloon catheters and the development of a minimally ...
Lack of replication of thirteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms implicated in Parkinson's disease: a large-scale international study
(2006)
Background: A genome-wide association study identified 13 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) significantly associated with Parkinson's disease. Small-scale replication studies were largely non-confirmatory, but a ...
Increasing incidence of melanoma in central Greece: A retrospective epidemiology study
(2005)
The increasing incidence of melanoma in the general population during the last few decades has provoked a great deal of research, aiming to identify the possible relationship between old and new etiological factors involved ...
Does the ISNT rule apply to the radial peripapillary capillary vessel density in OCT angiography?
(2022)
Purpose: To investigate the applicability of ISNT (inferior ≥ superior ≥ nasal ≥ temporal), IST (inferior ≥ superior ≥ temporal), and T min (temporal quadrant with the minimum value) rules to the peripapillary nerve fiber ...
The effects of self-regulation strategies following moderate intensity exercise on ad libitum smoking
(2018)
Introduction: The purpose of the present study was to examine whether self-regulation strategies can further extend the effect of moderate intensity exercise on smoking delay. Method: Participants were 40 adult smokers who ...
Age and signal strength-related changes in vessel density in the choroid and the retina: an OCT angiography study of the macula and optic disc
(2022)
Purpose: To investigate the effects of ageing and signal strength index (SSI) on vessel density (VD) measurements of the radial peripapillary capillaries (RPC) in the optic disc, the retinal superficial (SCP) and deep (DCP) ...
