1. Oxidative Stress and Changes of Important Metabolic Gene Expressions as a Potential Biomarker in the Diagnosis of Atherosclerosis in Leukocytes
ABSTRACT Introduction: Presenilin 1 (PSEN1), catalase (CAT), glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and paraoxonase 1 (PON1) play a vital role in prediction, diagnosis and therapy of metabolic disorders. Methods: Metabolic enzyme activities and lipid peroxidation in serum of cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) and coronary artery diseases were measured by spectrophoto

2. Evaluation of the rs35996865 polymorphism of the ROCK1 gene in sepsis
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Sepsis is a complex and serious medical condition resulting from the activation of an innate host response to infections. The etiology of sepsis is complex and can be influenced by genetic susceptibility. The purpose of the present study was to investigate a possible association of Rho-kinase 1 (ROCK1) gene polymorphism with sepsis in a T

3. Association of recurrent upper respiratory tract infections with low production of oxygen intermediates in children
Abstract Objectives: Upper respiratory tract infections in children generally have significant morbidity and mortality. There is little data available about functional immaturity of the immune system and the child’s susceptibility to infections at the beginning of their lives, thus, justifying a more specific immunological analysis. Method: Analysis of h

4. Total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein and inflammatory parameters in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: In this study, the hormone profile, lipid profile, and inflammatory parameters of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome were compared with those of non-polycystic ovary syndrome patients to determine predictive markers in young polycystic ovary syndrome patients who have not yet had children. METHODS: Patients’ age, height, weight, b

5. Evaluation of the Rho-kinase gene expression and polymorphisms in adult patients with acute appendicitis: a differential impact of gender
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Acute appendicitis represents one of the most common causes of acute intra-abdominal emergencies worldwide. In this case-control study, we aimed to investigate associations of Rho-kinase gene expression and polymorphisms with acute appendicitis in a Turkish population. We also aimed to study the effects of gender on these parameters. MET

6. Blood count and fasting blood glucose level in the assessment of prognosis and survival in advanced cervical cancer
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to verify whether the parameters of the blood count and the fasting glucose level before treatment are related to prognosis and survival in cervical cancer (IIB–IVB staging). METHODS: Patients with cervical cancer (stages IIB–IVB) were evaluated (n=80). Age, parity, staging, histological grade, histolo

7. Hematological changes in SARS-COV-2 positive patients
Abstract Introduction The novel SARS-CoV-2 infection has been spreading around the world since January 2020 causing the Corona Virus Disease 2019. Leukopenia, lymphopenia and hypercoagulability with elevated D- Dimers have been described in COVID-19 patients to date. This study aimed to clarify if some blood parameters can be used as biomarkers to facilitat

8. Performance of prognostic markers in pediatric sepsis
Abstract Objective To evaluate the prognostic performance of the Pediatric Index of Mortality 2 (PIM2), ferritin, lactate, C-reactive protein (CRP), and leukocytes, alone and in combination, in pediatric patients with sepsis admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Methods A retrospective study was conducted in a PICU in Brazil. All patients a

9. After Thirty Years, We Still Cannot Understand Why Methylene Blue is not a Reference to Treat Vasoplegic Syndrome in Cardiac Surgery
Abstract Vasoplegic syndrome (VS) comprises a constellation of concurrent signs and symptoms: hypotension, high cardiac index, low systemic vascular resistance, low filling pressures, the tendency to occur diffuse bleeding, and sustained hypotension. All of these parameters may persist even despite the use of high doses of vasoconstrictor amines. VS arises f

10. Apoplexy in sporadic pituitary adenomas: a single referral center experience and AIP mutation analysis
ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the clinical, laboratory, and radiological findings and management of patients with clinical pituitary apoplexy and to screen for aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein (AIP) mutations. Subjects and methods: The clinical findings were collected from the medical records of consecutive sporadic pituitary adenoma patients

11. Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Benzo[f]indole-4,9-diones N-Linked to Carbohydrate Chains as New Type of Antitumor Agents
In this work, we report the synthesis of three series of carbohydrate-based benzo[f]indole-4,9-diones and amino-1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives and evaluated their cytotoxic activity against eight human cancer cell lines. Several compounds showed a promising cytotoxic activity toward the tumor cell lines (half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) < 10.0 μ

12. Ovarian hormones influence immune response to Staphylococcus aureus infection
ABSTRACT Objective: Staphylococcus aureus infections remain associated with considerable morbidity and mortality in both hospitals and the community. There is little information regarding the role of ovarian hormones in infections caused by S. aureus. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of ovariectomy in the immune response induced by S. aureu
