Mutations In Cgi-58, The Gene Encoding A New Protein Of The Esterase/Lipase/Thioesterase Subfamily, In Chanarin-Dorfman Syndrome
(Cell Press, 2001)
Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome (CDS) is a rare autosomal recessive form of nonbullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NCIE) that is characterized by the presence of intracellular lipid droplets in most tissues. We ...
Intraradicular Disc Herniations in the Lumbar Spine and a New Classification of Intradural Disc Herniations
(Nature Publishing Group, 2001)
Study design: A case report of intraradicular disc herniation. Intraradicular disc herniation is a special type of intradural disc hernations. In this report, we present the tenth case of intraradicular lumbar disc herniation ...
The Effect of Transpedicular Intracorporeal Grafting in the Treatment of Thoracolumbar Burst Fractures on Canal Remodeling
(Springer-Verlag, 2001)
Short-segment posterior instrumentation for the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures has been reported with a high rate of failure. Transpedicular intracorporeal grafting in combination with short-segment instrumentation ...
Cnga3 Mutations In Hereditary Cone Photoreceptor Disorders
(Cell Press, 2001)
We recently showed that mutations in the CNGA3 gene encoding the alpha -subunit of the cone photoreceptor cGMP-gated channel cause autosomal recessive complete achromatopsia linked to chromosome 2q11. We now report the ...
Effect of Cardiopulmonary Bypass on Plasma Levels of Lipoprotein (A) in Hypercholesterolemic Patients
(Japan Heart Journal, Second Dept Of Internal Med, 2001)
Increments of lipoprotein (a) (Lp (a)) concentration during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) have not been justified in the literature vet. We have investigated whether Lp a) levels remain constant or increase during CPB and ...
Is Activated Factor Vii Associated with Retinal Vein Occlusion?
(British Med Journal Publ Group, 2001)
Aim-To determine whether a newly identified thrombophilia factor, activated factor VII (FVIIa), is associated with retinal vein occlusion (RVO). Methods-54 consecutive cases with RVO seen between March and September 1999 ...
In Vitro Susceptibility Testing Methods For Caspofungin Against Aspergillus And Fusarium Isolates
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2001)
We investigated the relevance of prominent reduction in turbidity macroscopically (MIC) and formation of aberrant hyphal tips microscopically (minimum effective concentration; MEC) in measuring the in vitro activity of ...
Expression Of Androgen Receptor, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor, And Transforming Growth Factor Alpha In Salivary Duct Carcinoma
(Amer Medical Assoc, 2001)
Background: Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is a rare, highly aggressive neoplasm that primarily affects the major salivary glands. It is a distinct clinicopathological entity characterized by its morphologic resemblance to ...
Effects Of Aminoguanidine On Glomerular Basement Membrane Thickness And Anionic Charge In A Diabetic Rat Model
(2001)
We investigated the effect of aminoguanidine (AG) administration on GBM thickness, glomerular heparan sulfate (HS) content, and urinary albumin and HS excretion in diabetic rats. After induction of diabetes, female Wistar ...
A Prospective Evaluation of the Effect of Salpingectomy on Endometrial Receptivity in Cases of Women with Communicating Hydrosalpinges
(Oxford Univ Press, 2001)
BACKGROUND: We aimed to assess whether salpingectomy in women with communicating hydrosalpinges influenced endometrial receptivity. METHODS: The inclusion criteria were: women with communicating hydrosalpinges, absence of ...
