Epidermal growth factor in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers: An update
(2012)
Management of diabetic foot ulcers remains a rather challenging task. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays a central role in wound healing. It acts on epithelial cells and fibroblasts promoting restoration of damaged ...
Mechanisms of action of differentiation inducers: Detection of inducer binding protein(s) in murine erythroleukemia cells
(2005)
We have shown previously that murine erythroleukemia (MEL) and human neuroectodermal RD/TE-671 cells are induced to differentiate by ureido derivatives of pyridine (UDPs) and may contain inducer binding protein(s). In the ...
Follow-up of a web-based tailored intervention promoting the Mediterranean diet in Scotland
(2008)
Objective: To assess the impact of a 3-month follow-up of a 6-month quasi-experimental study conducted to evaluate a web-based, tailored-feedback intervention promoting four key components of the Mediterranean diet. Methods: ...
Heparin induced thrombocytopenia diagnosis in cardiac surgery: Is there a role for thromboelastography?
(2008)
The aim of the present protocol is to investigate the potency of thromboelastography (TEG) to screen postcardiac heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) patients suspicious for HIT type II, and to differentiate which of ...
Confluent hepatic fibrosis as the presenting imaging sign in nonadvanced alcoholic cirrhosis
(2004)
Confluent hepatic fibrosis (CHF) is usually a feature of advanced cirrhosis, while occurrence in early stage compensated cirrhosis is uncommon. We report the imaging findings of masslike CHF in a patient with previously ...
Diagnosis and management of chronic coronary artery disease
(2007)
Coronary artery disease (CAD) usually coexists with atherosclerosis of other arterial trees and is accelerated by several risk factors. It may remain asymptomatic for a long period affecting the vessel wall with no lumen ...
Nuclear localization of cytokeratin 8 and the O-linked N -acetylglucosamine-containing Epitope H in epithelial cells of infiltrating ductal breast carcinomas: A combination of immunogold and EDTA regressive staining methods
(2006)
In a previous study, the authors have shown cytokeratin 8 (CK8) and epitope H ultrastructural localization in breast cancer cell nuclei. Epitope H contains an O-linked N -acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) residue in a specific ...
Cytokines and pathological sleep
(2008)
Cytokines are proteins produced by leukocytes and other cells that function as intercellular mediators acting on several target tissues, resulting in multiple biologic actions. Over the last decade, medical research has ...
Role of Prophylactic Antibiotics in Uncontaminated Neck Dissections
(1991)
The use of perioperative prophylactic antibiotics in uncontaminated head and neck surgery remains controversial. We performed a retrospective analysis of 192 patients undergoing uncontaminated neck dissections from 1976 ...
Pleural transport physiology: Insights from biological marker measurements in transudates
(2011)
Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical properties of the pleural mesothelial barrier and of the biological markers that facilitate or eliminate the passage of molecules through the pleura. Methods ...
