background: premature ejaculation is one of the most problems in clinical practice. the association between varicocele and premature ejaculation was poorly understood. the effects of varicocelectomy on premature ejaculation in varicocele patient was studied. objectives: the aim of this study was to determine the impacts of varicocelectomy on patients with both premature ejaculation and varicoce...

The Drosophila wing imaginal disc is a sac-like structure that is composed of two opposing cell layers: peripodial epithelium (PE, also known as squamous epithelia) and disc proper (DP, also known as pseudostratified columnar epithelia). The molecular mechanism of cell morphogenesis has been well studied in the DP but not in the PE. Although proper Dpp signalling activity is required for proper...

Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is one of the most common infectious diseases in pregnant women in terms of global impact and is related with many adverse health consequences during pregnancy. For the first time, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis study to evaluate the possible association between CMV infection and preeclampsia (PE). Methods: A comprehensive literat...

Staphylococcal pyrogenic exotoxin (PE) ty pe C enhanced the susceptibility of rabbits to lethal shock by endotoxin by as much as 50,000-fold. A graph of log PE type C dose used for pretreatment versus log 50% lethal dose of endotoxin gave a straight line with a slope of approximately -1. Rabbits that received PE type C alone showed fevers only, but those given both PE ty pe C and endotoxin show...

Vermiculite (Ver) enriched with silver and copper was used as nanofiller to the polyethylene (PE) matrix. Specifically, the low density polyethylene (LDPE) was chosen as a matrix. The samples Ver-Ag,Cu were prepared by shaking of Ver with the aqueous solutions of silver and copper nitrate. The mixtures of the Ver nanofillers and PE were homogenized by melt compounding technique and further thin...

BACKGROUND The prognosis of patients with suspected pulmonary embolism (PE) in whom PE has been ruled out (RPE) is unclear. We aimed to evaluate survival and diagnosis of new cancer in suspected PE patients at follow up. METHODS A prospective cohort study nested in a prospective Institutional Registry of Venous Thromboembolic Disease was performed between 2006 and 2011. This study was designe...

background: premature ejaculation (pe) is the most common sexual disorder in men and studies reported prevalence up to 30% (1, 2). pe is not a life-threatening medical condition but it influences the quality of life (qol). objectives the aim of this study was to compare the efficiency, and safety of alpha blocker drugs in the treatment of patients with premature ejaculation (pe). additionally w...

BACKGROUND Clinical predictors for fatal pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with venous thromboembolism have never been studied. METHODS AND RESULTS Using data from the international prospective Registro Informatizado de la Enfermedad TromboEmbolica venosa (RIETE) registry about patients with objectively confirmed symptomatic acute venous thromboembolism, we determined independent predictive...
