The yield for using a pleural fluid culture to diagnose tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE) is low. Adenosine deaminase activity (ADA) has been shown to have good diagnostic value for TPE. The ADA cutoff point for the diagnosis of TPE is unclear. We attempted to determine the ADA level cutoff point for diagnosing of TPE in Thailand, where tuberculosis is endemic. We reviewed the medical records ...
OBJECTIVES Experience with therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) for acute relapses in clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) or multiple sclerosis (MS) patients has been derived from small and inhomogeneous patient populations so far. In the present study, we retrospectively evaluated features associated with TPE response in a larger cohort of CIS and MS patients with acute worsening of disease. PAR...
Eukaryotic chromosomes terminate in telomeres, complex nucleoprotein structures that are required for chromosome integrity that are implicated in cellular senescence and cancer. The chromatin at the telomere is unique with characteristics of both heterochromatin and euchromatin. The end of the chromosome is capped by a structure that protects the end and is required for maintaining proper chrom...
BACKGROUND Cardiac arrhythmias can be a part of cardiovascular involvement in some rheumatic diseases, but data about familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) are conflicting. AIM To search for abnormalities in ventricular repolarization indices in FMF patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy seven FMF patients and 30 age/gender comparable healthy controls were included. All patients were attack fr...

Transl Androl Urol, 2015;4(S1) www.amepc.org/tau of bladder, prostate for male (uterus for female) and rectum was defined as TPE and the resection of bladder and uterus as APE. The perioperative characters, pathological results and patients’ survival were collected and analyzed. Results: There were seven males and 13 females in this st...
BACKGROUND Controlled trials have found therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) infusion therapy to be equally efficacious in treating Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). Due to increases in the price of IVIg compared to human serum albumin (HSA), used as a replacement fluid in TPE, we examined direct hospital-level expenditures for TPE and IVIg for meaningful cost-di...
OBJECTIVE To assess the association between cigarette smoking and ventricular arrhythmias in adolescents. Novel electrocardiographic parameters -Tp-e interval, as well as Tpe/QT and Tpe/QTc ratios - were used to make this assessment. METHODS The study population consisted of 87 subjects aged between 16-19 years. Fifty-one adolescent smokers with no risk of arrhythmia comprised the Smoker Grou...
BACKGROUND Although pleural fluid lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and adenosine deaminase (ADA) levels are often used to distinguish between tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE) and parapneumonic pleural effusion (PPE), this can be challenging as the LDH level may vary from normal to severely increased in PPE and a significantly elevated ADA is frequently measured in both conditions. In this study, w...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Dietary factors are critical for the prevention and treatment of hypertension, but data on the effects of specific nutrients on blood pressure (BP) are scarce. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between total polyphenol excretion (TPE) in urine, as an objective measurement of total polyphenol intake and BP in an elderly population at high cardiovascular ris...
A Complete Randomized Block design was used to study the total protein efficiency (TPE) in Iranian Kilka and Peruvian Anchovy fish meals. Six isoenergetic (3200 kcal ME/kg) and isonitrogenous (18.5% CP) diets based on corn with six samples of fish meal (No. 1, 5, 6 steam processed, 2, 4 flame processed Kilka fish meal and No. 3 Peruvian Anchovy fish meal) were formulated and fed to Lohman male ...
