Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is strongly associated with increased risk of myocardial dysfunction and cardiovascular disease (CVD), two separate conditions which often co-exist and influence each other's course. The prevalence of myocard...
Total esterase activity in human saliva: Validation of an automated assay, characterization and behaviour after physical stress [0.03%]
人唾液总酯酶活性的自动化检测方法的建立、特征及在体力负荷后的变化行为研究
Fernando Tecles,Asta Tvarijonaviciute,Carlos De Torre et al.
Fernando Tecles et al.
Although saliva has esterase activity, this activity has not been characterized or studied in individuals subjected to physical stress. The aim of this report was to develop and validate an automated spectrophotometric assay for total ester...
Association of interleukin-6 methylation in leukocyte DNA with serum level and the risk of ischemic heart disease [0.03%]
白细胞DNA中IL-6甲基化与血清水平及缺血性心脏病风险关联的研究
Qinghui Yang,Yushi Zhao,Zhijie Zhang et al.
Qinghui Yang et al.
Background Interleukin-6 (IL-6), a multifunctional cytokine, plays an important role in the development of ischemic heart disease (IHD), and DNA hypomethylation of 2 CpGs, located downstream in the proximity of the IL-6 gene promoter, has b...

Background A blood test for S100B can be used to rule out intracranial complications after minor head injury and thereby reduce the need for computed tomography (CT) examinations. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical import...
Usefulness of mycophenolic acid monitoring with PETINIA for prediction of adverse events in kidney transplant recipients [0.03%]
PETINIA检测霉酚酸代谢产物用于预测肾移植术后不良事件的临床价值
Ji Yeon Ham,Hee-Yeon Jung,Ji-Young Choi et al.
Ji Yeon Ham et al.
Background Therapeutic drug monitoring of mycophenolic acid (MPA) is required to optimize the immunosuppressive effect and minimize toxicity. We validated a new particle-enhanced turbidimetric inhibition immunoassay (PETINIA) for the determ...
