An unusual finding of the posterior cranial fossa: One case report
(2008)
Variations of the posterior cranial fossa can alter surgical approaches to this region and pose a definite hazard if not considered. Inadvertent tearing of these large structures can result in morbidity and even mortality. ...
Apolipoprotein A polymorphysm predicts lipoprotein A concentration in renal transplant recipients
(2005)
Increased serum lipoprotein(a) is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis in renal transplant recipients. Higher levels may be due to genetic factors, for example, apolipoprotein A isoforms and/or environmental ...
Association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene variants (-786 T>C, intron 4 b/a VNTR and 894 G>T) with idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss: A case-control study with haplotype and in silico analysis
(2017)
Objective(s) Many lines of evidence suggest that reduced production of nitric oxide (NO) due to single nucleotide polymorphisms in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene may affect the implantation and maintenance ...
Association of P53 (?16ins-Pro) Haplotype with the Decreased Risk of Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma in Iranian-Azeri Patients
(2015)
Association of P53 polymorphisms with the increased risk of various cancers has been investigated in numerous studies. However, the results were conflicting and no polymorphism has been determined as a definite risk factor. ...
?-Tocopherol supplementation reduces biomarkers of oxidative stress in children with Down syndrome: A randomized controlled trial
(2014)
Background:Down syndrome (DS) is the most common human chromosomal abnormality. It is characterized by mental retardation and several metabolic disturbances, including elevated oxidative stress, which may be causally linked. ...
?-thalassemia mutations in the iranian kurdish population of kurdistan and west azerbaijan provinces
(2009)
The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and spectrum of ?-thalassemia (?-thal) mutations in the population of Sunni Muslim Kurds in western Iran and to set up a prenatal diagnostic laboratory. Sixty unrelated ...
A single nucleotide polymorphism in the FOXP3 gene associated wit] behcet's disease in an Iranian population
(2015)
Background: Behcet's Disease (BD) is a rare autoimmune disease that involves the dysfunction of regulatory T cells. FOXP3 is a key transcription factor in the development and function of Treg cells. Recent studies have ...
Aqueous extract of dried fruit of berberis vulgaris L. in acne vulgaris, a clinical trial
(2012)
Berberis vulgaris L. (barberry) is a very well-known herb in traditional medicine. Apart from its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, the antilipogenic effect of barberry on the sebaceous glands in animals may ...
Association of ACE, VEGF and CCL2 gene polymorphisms with Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura and an evaluation of the possible interaction effects of these loci in HSP patients
(2017)
Background. Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura (HSP) is a multisystem, small vessel, leucocytoclastic vasculitis. It is predominantly a childhood vasculitis, rarely reported in adults. Studies have shown that several different genetic ...
Association of CCND1 Gene c.870G>A Polymorphism with Breast Cancer Risk: A Case-ControlStudy and a Meta-Analysis
(2017)
Cyclin D1 (CCND1) plays an essential role in regulating the progress of the cell cycle from G1 to S phase. There is a common c.870G>A polymorphism in the CCND1 gene. The aim of this study was to investigate the association ...
