Ability of PITX2 methylation to predict survival in patients with prostate cancer
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to explore whether candidate gene methylation can effectively predict death from prostate cancer. METHODS After reviewing the literature to identify likely candidate genes, we assembled a case-control cohort (in a 1:2 ratio) to explore the distribution of PITX2, WNT5a, SPARC, EPB41L3, and TPM4 methylation levels. The case group comprised 45 patients with a...
متن کاملPrediction efficiency of PITX2 DNA methylation for prostate cancer survival.
This study determined the level of PITX2 methylation in prostate cancer and benign tissues and its relationship with the postoperative survival rate. Forty-four patients with prostate cancer who underwent radical prostatectomy and 43 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia were selected. DNA was extracted from the tissues and PITX2 methylation status was quantitatively analyzed by using the ...
متن کاملDo motor ability and handwriting kinematic measures predict organizational ability among children with Developmental Coordination Disorders?
BACKGROUND AND AIM Children with Developmental Coordination Disorders (DCD) exhibit deficient daily performance concealed in their perception-action mechanism. The aim of this study was to analyze behavior organization of children with DCD, in varied tasks that require generating and monitoring mental representations related to space and time inputs/requirements, for achieving better insight ab...
متن کاملTesting DFT ability to predict the stereoselectivity of group 4 metallocenes in propylene polymerization
In this study we have tested the ability of a standard DFT computational protocol to reproduce the experimentally obtained stereoselectivity of 26 different C2-symmetric zirconocene catalysts active in propylene polymerization. The catalysts were chosen for their relevance in metallocene catalyzed polymerization of propylene. To this end, primary insertion of both si- and re-propylene enantiofa...
متن کاملstatic versus dynamic assessment of l2 learners’ reading ability
dynamic assessment according to vygotskys sociocultural theory, states that instruction and assessment are interrelated. using static forms of assessment with second and foreign language students could do more harm than good. many teachers neglect to take account of the complexity involved in learning a second or foreign language and often wonder why learning of a language take so long. thi...
