Intravascular multimodality imaging: feasibility and role in the evaluation of coronary plaque pathology.
(Oxford University Press, 2017-02-17)
Coronary artery disease remains the leading cause of death in the developed world. Over recent years, research has been focused on the development of diagnostic intravascular imaging techniques that enable assessment of ...
How immunological profile drives clinical phenotype of primary Sjögren's syndrome at diagnosis: analysis of 10,500 patients (Sjögren Big Data Project).
(2018-08-14)
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the influence of the main immunological markers on the disease phenotype at diagnosis in a large international cohort of patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (SjS). METHODS: The Big Data Sjögren ...
Autophagy induces protein carbamylation in fibroblast-like synoviocytes from patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
(Oxford University Press, 2018-11-01)
Objectives: Autophagy is a homeostatic and physiological process that promotes the turnover of proteins and organelles damaged in conditions of cellular stress. We previously demonstrated that autophagy represents a key ...
Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Measures and Cognitive Function in the EPIC-Norfolk Cohort Study.
(2016-04-01)
PURPOSE: We examined the relationship between retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and cognitive function in a population of older British adults. METHODS: Participants of the European Prospective Investigation of ...
Human Sepsis Eicosanoid and Proresolving Lipid Mediator Temporal Profiles: Correlations With Survival and Clinical Outcomes.
(2017-01)
OBJECTIVE: To identify and measure recently described chemical mediators, termed specialized pro-resolving mediators that actively regulate the resolution of acute-inflammation, and correlate measurements with clinical ...
NF-κB activation and severity of gastritis in Helicobacter pylori-infected children and adults.
(2014-06)
BACKGROUND: In contrast to adults, Helicobacter pylori gastritis in children is reported as milder and ulcer disease as uncommon, but unequivocal data are lacking. OBJECTIVES: To compare the frequency of gastro-duodenal ...
Angiogenic gene expression and vascular density are reflected in ultrasonographic features of synovitis in early Rheumatoid Arthritis: an observational study.
(2015-03-13)
INTRODUCTION: Neovascularization contributes to the development of sustained synovial inflammation in the early stages of Rheumatoid Arthritis. Ultrasound (US) provides an indirect method of assessing synovial blood flow ...
Neointima and neoatherosclerotic characteristics in bare metal and first- and second-generation drug-eluting stents in patients admitted with cardiovascular events attributed to stent failure: an optical coherence tomography study.
(2018-02-02)
AIMS: The aim of this study was to assess neoatherosclerotic plaque morphology in bare metal (BMS) and first- and second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) in patients presenting with an event attributed to stent failure. ...
Truncating mutations in SPAST patients are associated with a high rate of psychiatric comorbidities in hereditary spastic paraplegia.
(2017-08)
BACKGROUND: The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a rare and heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders that are clinically characterised by progressive lower limb spasticity. They are classified as either ...
