Septal Contrast Enhancement Morphology Does Not Correlate with Biochemical or Echocardiographic Outcomes in TASH

Enhanced Ovarian Folliclular Development by Metformin Does Not Correlate with Pregnancy Rate: A Randomized Trial

Echocardiographic-determined septal morphology in Z-disc hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) can be classified into at least four major anatomic subsets based upon the septal contour, and the location and extent of hypertrophy: reverse curvature-, sigmoidal-, apical-, and neutral contour-HCM. Here, we sought to identify genetic determinants for sigmoidal-HCM and hypothesized that Z-disc-HCM may be associated preferentially with a sigmoidal phenotype. U...

Does vitamin D status correlate with clinical and biochemical features of polycystic ovary syndrome in high school girls?

Abstract   Background: Prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOs) is increasing particularly among the female adolescents and young women. It has been hypothesized that disturbance in calcium and vitamin-D metabolism may affect the symptoms of this syndrome. This study was designed to investigate the relationship between vitamin-D and calcium with metabolic parameters and other c...

Native/engineered Cartilage Adhesion Varies with Scaffold Material and Does Not Correlate to Gross Biochemical Content

INTRODUCTION While many studies have examined the in vitro behavior of tissue engineered cartilage (1), few have characterized interactions between the construct and the surrounding native tissue. Successful development of tissue engineered cartilage will require both proper matrix synthesis and integration into the surrounding tissue (2,3). Many different tissue engineering strategies have bee...

Dopamine and 5-HT receptor sensitivity does not correlate with neostriatal dopamine or 5-HT content.

To explore associations of neostriatal (NST) endogenous levels of dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) with sensitivity of their receptors, graded doses of 6-hydroxydopamine HBr (0 to 400 micrograms, ICV; 6-OHDA; desipramine pretreatment, 20 mg/kg IP) were given to rats between birth (P 0) and P 42. Numbers of vacuous chewing movements (VCMs) induced by SKF 38393 or m-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CP...
