Sixty FMF patients, of which 30 were in attack (FMF-A) and 30 were in remis- sion periods (FMF-R), and 25 sex-, age-, and body mass index (BMI)-matched healthy controls without any familial FMF history were inc
Fetal UPR was obtained by serial bladder volume measurements (two to four times, with a median interval of 5 min between each) using the rotational method of Virtual Organ Computer-aided AnaLysis (VOCAL) with three-dimensional ultrasound. To adjust for fetal weight (Wt) and gestational age (...
Submerged macrophytes are among the main structuring components in freshwater ecosystems. Macrophytes can substantially alter the behaviour of both prey and predators (e.g.5,6,7) via affecting predator–prey detection, encounter and catchability8. Some predators can alter their foraging behaviour and ...
Abbreviations: BMI: Body mass index; Cer: Ceramide The forest plot shows the models of univariate logistic regression in obesity. The concentration values of ceramides were normalized by converting the unit to nmol/cL The lengths of the lines represent the confidence intervals and the green points...
None of the FLNCtv variants were seen in the GNOMAD database version 2.1.1, while 5 TTNtv were seen at very low frequency [25]. 11 out of 15 FLNCtv and 26 out of 32 TTNtv variants are novel [3, 7, 14, 26–33]. Index patients did not have any class 4 or higher variants in...
Data to calculate the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was available for n = 23 patients in the primary group and n = 9 in the metastatic group. The metastatic group had a significantly higher median CCI compared to the primary group, with median scores of 8 [[2], [3], [4], [5],...

The aim was to determine whether the doppler derived myocardial performance index (MPI) or Tei-index can recognize CAV in pediatric heart transplant patients. Methods and Materials 31 pediatric heart transplanted patients (median age 8 years) received selected coronary angiography and endomyocardial ...
Methods The PET/CT images and data of 147 patients were analyzed retrospectively, and the SUVmax of the index lesions were measured. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of PET/CT for PCa. The correlation between SUVmax and ISUP GG was analyzed....
The significance in the tendency of segmen- tal segregation was tested by comparing the actual homogeneity indexes of last order clusters (last order clustering index and Peterson's index) to the mean in- dexes calculated for clusters formed when segmental ori- gins of MNs were artificially ...
