Independent and joint effects of the MAPT and SNCA genes in Parkinson disease
(2011)
Objective: We studied the independent and joint effects of the genes encoding alpha-synuclein (SNCA) and microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) in Parkinson disease (PD) as part of a large meta-analysis of individual ...
MEIS1 and BTBD9: Genetic association with restless leg syndrome in end stage renal disease
(2011)
Background: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sleep related movement disorder that occurs both in an idiopathic form and in symptomatic varieties. RLS is a frequent and distressing comorbidity in end stage renal disease ...
Association of LRRK2 exonic variants with susceptibility to Parkinson's disease: a case-control study
(2011)
Background The leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 gene (LRRK2) harbours highly penetrant mutations that are linked to familial parkinsonism. However, the extent of its polymorphic variability in relation to risk of Parkinson's ...
Quantitative spectral analysis of vigilance EEG in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome
(2011)
Sleep disruption and blood gas abnormalities, observed in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) syndrome, prevent sleep-related restorative processes and induce chemical or structural central nervous system cellular ...
Angiotensin-converting enzyme tag single nucleotide polymorphisms in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage
(2011)
Objectives Studies investigating the association between angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) have provided conflicting results. Moreover, ...
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 ...
Evidence of Increased Muscle Atrophy and Impaired Quality of Life Parameters in Patients with Uremic Restless Legs Syndrome
(2011)
Background: Restless Legs Syndrome is a very common disorder in hemodialysis patients. Restless Legs Syndrome negatively affects quality of life; however it is not clear whether this is due to mental or physical parameters ...
Pesticide exposure and lymphohaematopoietic cancers: a case-control study in an agricultural region (Larissa, Thessaly, Greece)
(2011)
Background: The causality of lymphohaematopoietic cancers (LHC) is multifactorial and studies investigating the association between chemical exposure and LHC have produced variable results. The aim of this study was to ...
