C-reactive protein and fibrinogen levels were lower in the group with a favorable outcome; however, a statistically significant difference was found at 24 hours after restoration of spontaneous circulation only for the CRP level (Table 4). The course of CRP showed a maximum 36 hours after restor...
CRP: C-reactive protein CT: Computed tomography DW-MRI: Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging ED: Emergency department GCS: Glasgow Coma Scale Hb: Hemoglobin Hct: Hematocrit ICU: Intensive care unit MRI: Magnetic resonance imaging NSE: Neuron-specific enolase PLT: Platelets ...
Furthermore, Takotsubo patients typically show increased circulating inflammatory markers, such as C-reactive protein (CRP), and IL-6, correlated with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, and increased arrhythmic events and mortality [30,31]. As reported in our case, the patient's laboratory...
Under a Creative Commons license open accessHighlights Abstract Purpose Activation of the kynurenine pathway (KP) has been shown to predict outcome in cardiac arrest (CA) patients. We validated these findings in a Swiss cohort. Methods We measured admission tryptophan and kynurenine levels in 270 co...
Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells acquire resistance to chemotherapy and apoptosis, in part, due to enhanced aerobic glycolysis and biomass production, known as the Warburg effect. We previously demonstrated that combination simvastatin (
ezCrpOctober 8, 2013 everyone needs to step back, and adopt a “who cares” attitude to drugs. Someone wants to use heroin or cocaine? Who cares. ++1!1! Nobody cares. Just like the commentors on thisredditabout the16-year-old who died after using LSD purchased on Silk Road. ...
Under a Creative Commons license open accessAbstract Background In Europe, approximately 291,000 cardiac arrests occur annually. Despite critical care therapy, hospital mortality remains high. This systematic review assessed whether, in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest, any drug therapy, compared to...
Many studies on CRPC have used androgen-insensitive PCa cell lines, such as PC-3 and DU145 cells, which do not express AR [20]. These cell lines were derived from highly anaplastic tumors from different metastatic sites in the bone and brain [21,22]. The PC-3 and DU145 cell lines ...
After the maceration period, the hydro-alcoholic extracts of açai were filtered through Whatman n◦1 filter paper and the ethanol was evaporated under low pressure at 55 ◦C. The extract was then lyophilized and frozen at −20 ◦C until use. Usually, 100 g of stones yields 5 g ...
The cells were placed in 1× annexin-binding buffer containing Alexa Fluor 488 annexin V (Alexa), propidium iodide (PI) and Alexa + PI under dark condition at room temperature for 15 min. The apoptotic cells at each stage were analyzed by using the flow cytometry (Sony SH800 Cell sorter,...
