AIMS To determine whether plasma homocysteine, methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T and factor II G20210A polymorphisms, factor VIII, and vWF are risk factors for central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). METHOD Prospective comparison of 63 consecutive patients with central retinal vein occlusion and 63 age matched controls. Plasma homocysteine and vWF were estimated by ELISA, the ...

Diabetická neuropatia je najčastejšou neskorou orgá-novou komplikáciou diabetu mellitu. Aj kei vo svete dodnes neexistuje jednotný diagnostický systém, vo všeobecnosti sa akceptuje, že anamnestický rozbor s analýzou subjektívnych ťažkostí, objektívne neurologické vyšetrenie a elektrofyziologické techniky zostávajú hlavným nástrojom v diagnostike diabetickej neuropatie. Na urýchlenie zberu anamn...

The highly elevated concentrations of the rare earth elements and yttrium (REY), U, Mo, Se, Pb in late Permian coals some coalfields Guangxi Province, South China, have been widely investigated; however, mode occurrence enrichment mechanism these critical are still under debate. This study investigates mineralogical geochemical compositions non-coal rocks from Xian’an Coalfield Province to disc...

statement of problem: assessment of mandibular size and position is essential when planning a treatment strategy for patients with class ii malocclusion. purpose: this study was carried out to evaluate the mandibular size and position of 8-13 year-old children with class ii division 1 malocclusion whom were referred to the faculty of dentistry, shiraz university of medical sciences, iran. mater...

Microbiological reduction of soluble U(VI) to insoluble U(IV) has been proposed as a remediation strategy for uranium-contaminated groundwater. Nitrate is a common co-contaminant with uranium. Nitrate inhibited U(VI) reduction in acetate-amended aquifer sediments collected from a uranium-contaminated site in New Mexico. Once nitrate was depleted, both U(VI) and Fe(III) were reduced concurrently...

Za Justina laòs je narod novog saveza.2 Latinski prijevod poslanice K lementa Rimskog Korinćanima, iz prvog dijela 2. st. prevodi izraz laikòs s plebeius (narodni), tj. onaj koji pripada kršćanskom narodu.

Acute angiotensin II (Ang II) infusions into mice increase arterial pressure (AP) and elicit pressure natriuresis. We used this model of pressure natriuresis to delineate the distal nephron responses to AP-mediated increases in distal sodium delivery. In the first group, we measured changes in urinary sodium excretion (U(Na)V) in male C57/BL6 anesthetized mice (n=9) before and during acute Ang ...

The paper presents the use of Pyrolox™ containing manganese nano oxides used for the removal of Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), and Pb(II) as well as U(VI) ions. Their concentrations were analyzed using the atomic absorption spectrometer SpectrAA 240 FS (Varian) as well as UV-vis method. For this purpose the static kinetic and equilibrium studies were carried out using the batch technique. The effect o...
