Synopsis and Data Synthesis of Genetic Association Studies in Hypertension for the Adrenergic Receptor Family Genes: The CUMAGAS-HYPERT Database
(2010)
BACKGROUND The adrenergic receptor (adrenoceptor) family genes have been extensively studied as candidate genes in hypertension but the results of individual genetic association studies (GAS) are controversial and inconclusive ...
High-dose pantoprazole continuous infusion is superior to somatostatin after endoscopic hemostasis in patients with peptic ulcer bleeding
(2007)
BACKGROUND: The best antisecretory treatment after endoscopic hemostasis in patients with ulcer bleeding is still in quest. OBJECTIVES: To compare pantoprazole and somatostatin continuous infusion after endoscopic hemostasis ...
Leptin, Adiponectin, and Ghrelin Levels in Female Patients with Asthma during Stable and Exacerbation Periods
(2013)
Objective. The mechanisms underlying the relationship between obesity and asthma have not been fully established. Data in the literature suggest that adipose tissue-derived hormones may be implicated. However, no definite ...
Intermittent recruitment with high-frequency oscillation/tracheal gas insufflation in acute respiratory distress syndrome
(2012)
In acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), recruitment sessions of high-frequency oscillation (HFO) and tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) with short-lasting recruitment manoeuvres (RMs) may improve oxygenation and enable ...
MDR1 mRNA expression and MDR1 gene variants as predictors of response to chemotherapy in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia: a meta-analysis
(2013)
Data from 30 pharmacogenomic studies that investigated MDR1 mRNA expression or gene variants (C3435T, G2677TA, C1236T) and response to therapy in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) were synthesized. Anthracycline-based regimens ...
A Network Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials of Induction Treatments in Acute Myeloid Leukemia in the Elderly
(2011)
Background: The optimal induction treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in the clinically and biologically heterogeneous group of elderly patients is not well-defined since direct comparisons between treatments is ...
Parental History of Adenotonsillectomy Is Associated with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Severity in Children with Snoring
(2014)
Objective To test the hypothesis that history of adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy (AT) in at least 1 of the parents during childhood, is a risk factor for moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (apnea-hypopnea ...
Association between primary nocturnal enuresis and habitual snoring in children
(2006)
Objectives. Nocturnal enuresis has been associated with obstructive sleep-disordered breathing mostly in hospital-referred adults and children. To investigate whether primary nocturnal enuresis is significantly associated ...
Variants of the Arachidonate 5-Lipoxygenase-Activating Protein (ALOX5AP) Gene and Risk of Stroke: A HuGE Gene-Disease Association Review and Meta-Analysis
(2009)
Variants of the arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (ALOX5AP) gene have been implicated as a risk factor for stroke. However, genetic association studies that have examined the association between ALOX5AP gene ...
