Glycemic Response of a Carbohydrate-Protein Bar with Ewe-Goat Whey
(2014)
In this study we examined the glycaemic index (GI) and glycaemic load (GL) of a functional food product, which contains ewe-goat whey protein and carbohydrates in a 1: 1 ratio. Nine healthy volunteers, (age, 23.3 +/- 3.9 ...
Crohn's disease-specific anti-CUZD1 pancreatic antibodies are absent in ruminants with paratuberculosis
(2015)
Background: Pancreatic autoantibodies (PABs) specifically recognizing GP2 and/or CUZD1 are present in more than 35% of patients with Crohn's disease (CrD). We have recently provided evidence of the presence of GP2-specific ...
Estimating the mode of inheritance in genetic association studies of qualitative traits based on the degree of dominance index
(2011)
Background: The biological justification for the choice of the genetic mode in genetic association studies (GAS) is seldom available. Then, the mode of inheritance is approximated by investigating a number of non-orthogonal ...
Variants of the MTHFR gene and susceptibility to acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children: A synthesis of genetic association studies
(2012)
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a complex disease with genetic background. The genetic association studies (GAS) that investigated the association between ALL and the MTHFR C677T and A1298C gene variants ...
The role of hypercoagulability in ischemic colitis
(2015)
Objective. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of thrombophilia-hypercoagulability in ischemic colitis (IC). Material and methods. Thrombophilia and fibrinogen were evaluated in 56 cases of IC and 44 controls ...
Geographic variations of human papilloma virus infection and their possible impact on the effectiveness of the vaccination programme
(2008)
Greece is one of the first countries of the European Union to introduce a human. papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine in its national vaccination programme. Geographical variations in the prevalence of the different HPV types ...
Evidence of Association Between Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Gene and Susceptibility to Breast Cancer: A Candidate-Gene Association Study in a South-Eastern European Population
(2012)
The methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene has been proposed as a candidate gene for breast cancer (BC). However, the specific role of MTHFR polymorphisms and haplotypes has not been fully clarified and replicated. ...
Association Between the Interleukin-1 beta Gene (IL1B) C-511T Polymorphism and the Risk of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes: A Candidate-Gene Association Study
(2014)
Variants of the interleukin-1 beta gene (IL1B) are implicated in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). The present candidate-gene association study was conducted to investigate the association between the IL1B ...
The association between plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) levels, PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism, and myocardial infarction: a Mendelian randomization meta-analysis
(2014)
Background: The circulating levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) are increased in individuals carrying the 4G allele at position -675 of the PAI-1 gene. In turn, overexpression of PAI-1 has been found ...
Promoting social interaction in the inclusive classroom: Lessons from inclusive schools in England and Cyprus
(2013)
Recent sociometric research evidence in mainstream settings has suggested that pupils identified as having Special Educational Needs (SEN) often occupy a lower social position compared to their typically achieving peers ...
