Without further coordination, external actors will all try to force health care providers to be trans...
AIMS Cardiac involvement is common in sickle cell disease (SCD). Studies are needed to establish haematological determinants of this involvement and prognostic markers. The aim of the study was to identify haematological factors associated with cardiac involvement in SCD and their impact on prognosis. METHODS AND RESULTS This longitudinal observational study was performed on 1780 SCD patients...
Background: Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is one of the most wide-spread human diseases that can impair liver function and sometimes progresses to cir-rhosis. Recently NAFLD has been identified as an independent risk factor for cardio-vascular disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation of fatty liver disease and its sonographic severity on the resistance of the...
Background and Purpose—Both dementia and stroke are major health problems in Chinese societies. Stroke is a frequent cause of dementia. Only a few studies have been published on poststroke dementia (PSDE), none of which has investigated a consecutive stroke cohort in Asian patient populations.

BACKGROUND There is an ongoing debate regarding the relevance of the 6-minute walking distance (6MWD) in systemic sclerosis (SSc) assessment, widely used as a usual test in these patients as well as an outcome measure in clinical trials. In this work, we aimed to assess the associations between the 6MWD and various disease parameters in patients with SSc. METHODS Consecutive patients followed...
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the extent of subclinical atherosclerosis by measuring the intima-media wall thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and to identify vascular risk factors associated with PsA. METHODS Forty-seven patients with PsA were compared with 100 allegedly healthy subjects. Carotid duplex scanning was used to measure common carotid ...
Central nervous system involvement remains a challenging issue in the treatment of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. We conducted a prospective cohort study with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients receiving rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone to identify incidence and risk factors for central nervous system involvement. Among 595 ...
OBJECTIVE To develop and test an index to evaluate the radiographic changes that occur in the tarsus and adjacent areas of the foot in patients with spondyloarthropathies (SpA). METHODS The spondyloarthropathy tarsal radiographic index (SpA-TRI) was developed in three consecutive steps: (a) detection of descriptors after reviewing 70 radiographic files; (b) descriptor gradation and subsequent...
carpal tunnel syndrome (cts) is considered by researchers because of its high prevalence, and several studies have been done to find the causes and factors which increase the chance for the syndrome. these studies have shown relationships between this syndrome with some physical parameters like wrist dimensions, weight and systemic conditions. there is no investigation on risk factors in cts in...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) and CA125 correlate with known high-risk prognostic factors for endometrial cancer. DESIGN Prospective multicenter study. SETTING Three Danish tertiary gynecological oncology centers. POPULATION A total of 352 patients with endometrial cancer and atypical endometrial hyperplasia consecutively referred between 1 September 2009 ...
