1. The relationship between premature ventricular complexes and index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Premature ventricular complexes are common in healthy individuals’ ambulatory monitoring. The index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance may predict malignant ventricular arrhythmias. This study investigated the relation between Premature ventricular complex burden and index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance in 24-h Holter moni

5. Wnt3a but not CDX-2 expression is associated with differentiated thyroid cancer
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Thyroid neoplasm incidence has increased worldwide, mostly due to the advancements in medical imaging and screening rates. The aberrant Wnt/β-catenin pathway has been identified as a key mechanism, and it has also been related to the metastatic activity of differentiated thyroid cancer. We aimed to verify the difference in the expression

6. Efficacy of cabergoline add-on therapy in patients with acromegaly resistance to somatostatin analogs treatment and the review of literature
ABSTRACT Objective: It is reported that adding cabergoline to somatostatin analog (SSA) normalizes IGF-1 levels approximately in one-third of patients with acromegaly. We investigated the effect of combination therapy and potential predictors of response in patients with acromegaly who do not respond to SSA therapy alone. Subjects and methods: Fifty acrome
