(2015)
Providing care for hematologic cancer patients may lead to many negative complications in different aspects of life in their family caregivers. Based on a wide review of relevant literature, there are limited data about ...
Lack of influence of TP53 Arg72Pro and 16bp duplication polymorphisms on risk of breast cancer in Iran.
(2015)
TP53 is assumed to be a very important tumour suppressor gene, as illustrated by recent reports that have shown effects of its polymorphisms on breast cancer risk. Arg72Pro and PIN3(16bp duplication) polymorphisms are ...
Serum and tissue endothelin-1 are independent from intima-media thickness of peripheral arteries in patients with chronic kidney disease.
(2015)
We aimed to study the relationship of peripheral arteries' atherosclerosis with serum and tissue endothelin-1 in chronic kidney disease patients.Ninety patients were enrolled, including 35 patients with chronic kidney ...
Analysis of PTPN22 C1858T gene polymorphism in cases with type 1 diabetes of Azerbaijan, Northwest Iran.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a T-cell mediated autoimmune multifactorial disease. The PTPN22 gene encodes an intracellular lymphoid-specific phosphatase (Lyp) that has been shown to play a negative regulatory role in T cell ...
The association of the transitions in smoking stages with prevalence of cigarette smoking in the classes and schools: a longitudinal study.
(2014)
Adolescent tobacco use remains a major public health priority to reduce the prevalence of tobacco use in community. The aim of this study was determining the association of the transitions in smoking stages with prevalence ...
Prevalence of exfoliative toxin A and B genes in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical specimens.
The pathogenicity of Staphylococcus aureus is based on the production of various virulence factors. The frequency of these factors can markedly differ according to the geographical region.In this study, we investigated the ...
