13. RhoA/ROCK-1 Signaling Pathway and Oxidative Stress in Coronary Artery Disease Patients
Abstract Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is an ischemic condition that occurs as a result of partial or complete interruption of blood flow by narrowing or complete blockage of the vessels supplying the heart, which are called coronary arteries. Our objective in this study is to investigate the RhoA/Rho-associated kinase (ROCK)-1 signaling pathw

14. Link between obsessive-compulsive disorder and polymorphisms in HDAC genes
Objective: Recently, epigenetic mechanisms related to histone modifications including histone deacetylation (HDAC) have been emphasized in psychiatric diseases. Few studies have investigated the relationship of HDAC gene variations to psychiatric diseases, but these gene variations have never been studied in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The present c

15. Bone, fat, and muscle interactions in health and disease
Abstract Energy metabolism is a point of integration among the various organs and tissues of the human body, not only in terms of consumption of energy substrates but also because it concentrates a wide interconnected network controlled by endocrine factors. Thus, not only do tissues consume substrates, but they also participate in modulating energy metaboli

16. Lifestyle Intervention in Reducing Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Students with Dyslipidemia and Abdominal Obesity: A Randomized Study
Abstract Background The long incubation periods of cardiovascular diseases offer opportunities for controlling risk factors. In addition, preventive interventions in childhood are more likely to succeed because lifestyle habits become ingrained as they are repeated. Objective To investigate the effects of recreational physical activities, in combination

17. Association between the CTLA4 +49A/G (rs231775) and CT60 (rs3087243) gene variants with vitiligo: study on a Mexican population
Abstract Background: Vitiligo is characterized by an autoimmune response targeting melanocytes, thus resulting in skin depigmentation. There are several genetic components involved in the development of vitiligo, of which various gene polymorphisms are currently considered as risk factors. For example, the CTLA4 (T-lymphocyte antigen 4) +49A/G (rs231775) an

18. Coverage plants in the management of skeletal coffee
ABSTRACT Currently, one of the most used practices in national coffee production is skeletal pruning, to preserve productive capacity, correct plant architecture, minimize the occurrence of diseases, among others. Also, it reduces the plants diameter, exposing the soil to climatic conditions, erosion, loss of moisture and nutrients, negatively affecting the

19. Evaluation of the promoter methylation status of hypoxia factor 3A and interleukin-6 genes and expression levels of mir-130b and mir-146b in childhood obesity
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Obesity, which causes many serious diseases, is increasing exponentially in childhood across the world. Epigenetic changes, as well as genetics, play an important role in the process of adipogenesis. Therefore, we aimed to examine the expression levels of obesity-related MicroRNA-130b and MicroRNA-146b and the methylation status of hypoxi

20. Outcome of Gastroesophageal Reflux Therapy in Children with Persistent Otitis Media with Effusion
Abstract Introduction Otitis media with effusion (OME) is considered one of the most common disorders that affect children during the first years of life. There are many risk factors of persistent middle ear effusion; one of these risk factors is gastroesophageal reflux. Association between persistent OME and gastroesophageal reflux diseases (GERDs) could b

21. Importance of epicardial adipose tissue as a predictor of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Epicardial adipose tissue is a special form of visceral fat surrounding the heart. It is associated with cardiac and metabolic diseases. Epicardial adipose tissue is associated with risk factors for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, and diabetes. In this study, we examined t

22. Fatigue and primary sarcopenia in geriatric patients
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the frequency of fatigue in geriatric patients with primary sarcopenia and to evaluate the relationship between fatigue and symptoms such as depression and sleepiness. METHODS: This case-control study was conducted between December 2020 and August 2021 in the geriatrics outpatient clinic of Istanbul Univer

23. Streptococcus gallolyticus Bacteremia Detected in Apheresis Platelets and Its Link to Colonic Neoplasms
Abstract Introduction Streptococcus gallolyticus belongs to theStreptococcus bovis complex, and it is a common bacterium colonizing the gastrointestinal tract. Its presence in the blood may suggest an underlying pathology such as a colonic neoplasm. We report herein a case of S. bovis bacteremia in an apheresis platelet donor, review similar cases in the li

24. Effect of Physical Training on Nitric Oxide Levels in Patients with Arterial Hypertension: An Integrative Review
Abstract The regular practice of physical exercise as a non-pharmacological treatment of arterial hypertension (AH) has been encouraged due to causing a series of physiological responses in the cardiovascular system, such as the production of vasoactive substances, including nitric oxide (NO). NO is a relaxation factor released by the endothelium, and the de
