The present study was designed to evaluate prothrombotic risk profiles in 59 consecutively recruited white neonates with renal venous thrombosis (RVT). The rates of prothrombotic risk factors (PRs)—for example, the factor V (FV) 1691G>A mutation, the factor II (FII) 20210G>A variant, antithrombin (AT), protein C (PC), protein S (PS), elevated lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), total fasting plasma homocys...

renal vein thrombosis (rvt) is the most frequent vascular abnormality in newborns, but rarely seen in adults. rvt is an acute problem, and diagnostic and therapeutic approaches should be done immediately. surgical thrombectomy is not a rational approach and the treatment of choice is conservative management and thrombolytic therapy. we present a 45 years old male patient with chronic renal vein...

Phytochemicals provide environmentally friendly and relatively inexpensive natural products, which could potentially benefit public health by controlling human norovirus (HuNoV) infection. In this study, 18 different phytochemicals were evaluated for antiviral effects against norovirus using murine norovirus (MNV) as a model for norovirus biology. Among these phytochemicals, curcumin (CCM) was ...

Seismic response analyses are performed using a minimum number of seismic records as input motions in order to achieve statistically strong estimation. Unfortunately, the available information recorded from current networks is still scarce regarding events with considerable magnitude. In this context, Random Vibration Theory (RVT) arises an alternative tool for performing site without need reco...

to thrombectomy and finally to thrombolytic therapy with anticoagulation, which is currently the standard treatment of choice [1]. Here, we present a young woman with bilateral RVT. Her case constituted the first clinical report of heterozygous MTHFR mutation with RVT, which was her only risk factor for the disease. MTHFR is a key enzyme for intracellular folate homeostasis and metabolism that ...

In the framework of our ongoing project [2, 3, 4], we aim at developing a Reactive Virtual Trainer (RVT), an intelligent virtual agents (IVA) who can not only perform exercises, but adjust those, and interweave the physical performance with explanations, correcting remarks and social chat. For an IVA in such a role where the demonstrated motion is to be copied by the user, the subtle, physicall...

PURPOSE To investigate the correlation between optic disc hemorrhages (ODHs) and the position of the central retinal vessel trunk (RVT) in patients with glaucoma. METHODS Fundus photographs of 1,830 participants were reviewed. The exit position of the central retinal vessel trunk was classified as being in the superior or inferior hemisphere of the optic disc and the relative vertical positio...
