the incidence of survival  analysis and hazard rates in 55 patients with pemphingus have been determined for a period of 12 years from 1989-2000.the effect of pemphigus type,sex,age and the method of treatment were evaluated seperately.for this the  equation ht(x)=ho(t) exp{bi xi}was chosen in which hois the baseline hazard in ziro time,ht is hazard happened later(in timet)b is regression co...

background: high-grade astrocytoma (grade 4) or glioblastoma multiforme (gbm) are deadly brain tumors. new therapies attempt to increase lifetime and quality of life in patients with malignant astrocytoma. o6-methylguanine-dna methyltransferase (mgmt) enzyme expression may be effective in prognosis and response to treatment of these patients. the aim of this study was assessment of mgmt enzyme ...

background: the classical supportive therapy for î² -thalassemia major consists of regular blood transfusion, iron-chelation therapy and specific treatment of the related complications. a balance between the maintenance of the highest possible level of haemoglobin and lowest possible level of iron accumulation in heart and liver give the best chance of survival and the best quality of life. met...

Background and Aim: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common malignant and invasive tumor of the brain. The relation between prognosis and survival of GBM patients with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) expression is challenging. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the prognosis and survival of patients with GBM and its relationship with EGFR expression. Materials and Methods: This single...

an important aspect of microarray studies includes the prediction of patient survival based on their gene expression profile. to deal with the high dimensionality of this data, use of a dimension reduction procedure along with the survival prediction model is necessary. this study aimed to present a new method based on wavelet transform for survival relevant gene selection.the data included 204...

objective(s): breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women worldwide. this study investigated the expression and clinical significance of activating transcription factor 3 (atf3) in human breast cancer and its relationship with the clinical outcome of breast cancer.   materials and methods : atf3 expressions were detected in 114 primary breast cancer tissues and 114 adjacent norm...
