Does off-pump CAPG reduce gastrointestinal complications?
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2004)
Background. The aim of this study was to compare gastrointestinal complications and associated risk factors among patients undergoing cardiac surgery using off- and on-pump revascularization techniques. Methods. A total ...
Vitamin D receptor alleles bone mineral density and turnover in postmenopausal osteoporotic and healthy women
(Karger, 2004)
Objective: Vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and bone metabolic markers were investigated as potential genetic markers for osteoporosis in postmenopausal Turkish women. The relationship between their VDR gene ...
Development of an oblique subduction zone - Tectonic evolution of the tethys suture zone in southeast Turkey
(V H Winston & Son Inc, 2003)
The Southeast Anatolian orogen part of the Mediterraneari-Himalayan orogenic belt may be divided into three approximately E-W-trending zones. From south to north they are the Arabian platform an imbricated zone and a nappe ...
Effect of abdominal obesity on insulin resistance and the components of the metabolic syndrome: Evidence supporting obesity as the central feature
(F D-Communications Inc., 2003)
Background: Metabolic syndrome includes abdominal obesity diabetes type 2 hypertension dyslipidemia derangements of fibrinolysis and atherosclerosis. Since abdominal obesity is one of the major components of the insulin ...
Lipid peroxidation and osmotic fragility of red blood cells in sleep-apnea patients
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2003)
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) refers to the occurrence of episodes of complete or partial pharyngeal obstruction with oxyhemoglobin desaturation during sleep. These hypoxia/reoxygenation episodes may cause ...
The association of the severity of obstructive sleep apnea with plasma leptin levels
(Amer Medical Assoc., 2003)
Objective: To examine whether circulating leptin levels correlate with the severity of disease in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Design: Prospective nonrandomized study. Setting: Referral sleep laboratory for ...
The interrelationship between insulin secretion and action in Type 2 diabetes mellitus with different degrees of obesity: Evidence supporting central obesity
(Editrice Kurtis S R L, 2003)
This paper investigates the relative role of the impairment of insulin secretion and action in the pathogenesis of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The parameters indicating insulin secretion and action were calculated ...
Sickle Cell Anemia Detection
(IEEE, 2018)
Anemia is a common name given to falls in oxygen transport capacity due to some of the functional disadvantages of red blood cells. Pathology Laboratorians put the tissue on the microscope glass and try to diagnose Anemia ...
Chelate extraction of transition metal ions by ethylene diamine diacetic acid with n-substituted octadecyl groups
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2002)
An organic-soluble chelating agent NN'-di-n-octadecyl ethylenediamine-NN'-diacetic acid (DOED) has been synthesized in two steps by (i) condensation of dibromoethane with 1-amino octadecane (octadecylamine) and (ii) ...
Metalization of polymer beads via polymer-supported hydrazines as reducing agents
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2002)
A new method for depositing metal onto a polymer surface has been developed in which the metal coating of polymer beads is performed with hydrazine functions as reducing agents on the surface of the polymer itself. In this ...
