Lipoprotein lipase gene polymorphism and lipid profile in coronary artery disease
(COLL AMER PATHOLOGISTS, 2004)
Context.-Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays a central role in lipid metabolism hydrolyzing triglyceride in chylomicrons and very-low-density lipoproteins. The PvuII polymorphic variant of LPL gene is common and might affect ...
Effect of the treatment of brucellosis on leukocyte superoxide dismutase activity and plasma nitric oxide level
(Sage Publications Inc, 2005)
Background: The mechanisms by which brucellae evade intracellular killing by polymorphonuclear leukocytes are incompletely understood. In this study we evaluated changes of leukocyte superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and ...
Combined radiofrequency ablation and myxoma resection through a port access approach
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2004)
Myxornas are common cardiac tumors that are traditionally managed by complete excision through a median sternotorny approach with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. We discuss a patient with left atrial myxoma and chronic ...
Modulation of high-density lipoproteins in a population in Istanbul Turkey with low levels of high-density lipoproteins
(EXCERPTA MEDICA INC, 2005)
The extent to which high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels can be increased in patients with low HDL cholesterol is important because low HDL cholesterol levels increase the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). ...
Coulomb corrections in the lepton-pair production in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions
(Amer Physical Soc., 2005)
We solve the perturbative electron-positron pair production exactly by calculating the second-order Feynman diagrams. We compare our result with Born methods that include Coulomb corrections. We find that a small-momentum ...
Optimal input design for the detection of changes towards unknown hypotheses
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2004)
The effects of auxiliary input signals on detecting changes in ARMAX processes via statistical tests are discussed. Two extensions to the Cumulative Sum Test are considered. The first is applicable when the direction of ...
How an Inhibitor Bound to Subunit Interface Alters Triosephosphate Isomerase Dynamics
(Cell Press, 2015)
The tunnel region at triosephosphate isomerase (TIM)'s dimer interface distant from its catalytic site is a target site for certain benzothiazole derivatives that inhibit TIM's catalytic activity in Trypanosoma cruzi the ...
Gender and the Wage Gap in Turkish Academia
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015)
Turkey maintains one of the lowest female labour force participation rates in Europe but also boasts an above average number of female professors. Turkey is well above the European average (15 per cent) with approximately ...
SiPAN: simultaneous prediction and alignment of protein-protein interaction networks
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
Motivation: Network prediction as applied to protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks has received considerable attention within the last decade. Because of the limitations of experimental techniques for interaction ...
