Relationship of fragmented QRS complexes with inadequate coronary collaterals in patients with chronic total occlusion
(2012)BACKGROUND: Fragmented QRS (fQRS) complexes are defined as various RSR? patterns (?1 R? or notching of S wave or R wave) in two contiguous leads corresponding to a major coronary artery territory. In previous studies, fQRS ... -
The role of protozoa in the etiology of chronic urticaria
(Elsevier, 2012)Background: Urticaria is a condition characterized by short-lived swellings of the skin, mouth, and genitalia due to transient leakage of plasma from small blood vessels into the surrounding connective tissues. Although ... -
Absence and resolution of fragmented QRS predict reversible myocardial ischemia with higher probability of ST segment resolution in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction
(2012)Background and Objectives: Fragmented QRS complexes (fQRS) are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The causative relationship between fQRS and cardiac fibrosis has been shown, but whether the presence and ... -
Effects of sugammadex and rocuronium mast cell number and degranulation in rat liver
(Wiley, 2012)We investigated the effect of rocuronium- and sugammadex-induced mast cell increase and degranulation in rat portal triads. Forty-two rats, in six groups, received either rocuronium 1 mg.kg -1; sugammadex 15 mg.kg -1; ... -
Elevated serum osteoprotegerin levels predict in-hospital major adverse cardiac events in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction
(Elsevier, 2012)The aim of our study was to investigate whether osteoprotegerin (OPG) is related to in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and reperfusion parameters in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). ... -
Eosinophilic panniculitis presenting with Kaposis sarcoma-like plaques in a patient who is human immunodeficiency virus positive: A case report
(Springer Nature, 2012)Introduction. Eosinophilic panniculitis is an unusual type of panniculitis characterized by a prominent infiltration of subcutaneous fat with eosinophils without an exact etiopathogenesis. To the best of our knowledge, up ... -
Biochemically and histopathologically comparative review of thiamine's and thiamine pyrophosphate's oxidative stress effects generated with methotrexate in rat liver
(2012)Background: Oxidative liver injury occurring with methotrexate restricts its use in the desired dose. Therefore, whether or not thiamine and thiamine pyrophosphate, whose antioxidant activity is known, have protective ... -
Autonomic nervous system dysfunction in lifelong premature ejaculation: Analysis of heart rate variability
(Elsevier, 2012)Objective: To identify autonomic nervous dysfunction in patients with lifelong premature ejaculation. Methods: The study participants were 25 men with lifelong premature ejaculation and 25 healthy controls. The parameters ... -
The effect of rocuronium, sugammadex, and their combination on cardiac muscle and diaphragmatic skeletal muscle cells
(Springer Link, 2012)Purpose: Rocuronium has been associated with muscle weakness when administered in prolonged infusions. The effect of sugammadex and rocuronium together on muscle is unknown. In this study, we examined the effects of ... -
Long-term survival rates of patients with stage IIIB and IV non-small cell lung cancer treated with cisplatin plus vinorelbine or gemcitabine
(2012)Limited data exist concerning the long-term (?5 year) survival rates of patients with stage IIIB and IV non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) receiving chemotherapy. We aimed to determine the long-term results of cisplatin ... -
Relationship between leukocyte and subtype counts, low-grade inflammation and slow coronary flow phenomenon in patients with angiographically normal coronary arteries
(2012)Background: Slow coronary flow (SCF) is an angiographic finding characterized by delayed opacification of epicardial coronary arteries in the absence of obstructive coronary disease. Leukocytes and low-grade inflammation ... -
Independent determinants of ascending aortic dilatation in hypertensive patients: Smoking, endothelial dysfunction, and increased epicardial adipose tissue
(Lippincott, 2012)Background: Ascending aortic aneurysm is an uncommon condition with lethal consequences. Lately, epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is acknowledged as an organ with important effects on the vascular system. In this study, we ... -
No significant effect of helicobacter pylori eradication on serum lipoproteins: CagA negative patients may be an exception
(2012)Objective: Helicobacter pylori infection ¡s associated with a modified lipid profile, especially lower HDL cholesterol levels. Cytotoxin Associated Gene A (CagA) positive strains with increased inflammation may further ... -
Huge non-ruptured true saccular aneurysm of the ascending aorta
(2012)Aortic aneurysm (AA), a disease characterized by dilatation of all aortic segments, causes fatal cardiovascular complications. Aortic aneurysms are usually related to hypertension or atherosclerosis. Generally, an AA is ... -
Localized actinic nasal porokeratosis: A case report
(2012)Porokeratisis is a specific keratinization disorder. The presence of cornoid lamella is histologically characteristic of the disorder. This report describes a 23-year-old male patient with multiple porokeratotic lesions ... -
