Serum Albumin Concentration and Cognitive Impairment

Serum-albumin concentration and the onset of kwashiorkor.

Interaction of Phthalocyanine with Egg albumin and Bovine serum albumin

The interaction of bovine serum albumin ( BSA) and egg albumin with water solublephthalocyanine, cobalt (ΙΙ) 4, 4′ , 4′′, 4′′′- tetrasulfophthalocyanine ( CoTSPc) , has been studiedby the UV- Vis method at pH 7.0 and five different temperatures 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40°C. Theformation constants have been elucidated by using spectrophotometric titration and computerSQUAD program data refinement. Th...

Albumin-adjusted calcium concentration in serum increases during normal pregnancy.

Concentrations of total calcium and albumin were measured in serum specimens from 41 women at intervals before, during, and after 42 pregnancies. The albumin concentration decreased but the calcium decreased more slowly, so that the albumin-adjusted calcium concentration increased from conception to term. These findings, taken in conjunction with published observations of hypercalciuria, increa...

Evaluation the relationship between serum level of vitamin D and cognitive impairment in elderly patients

Background: Vitamin D deficiency is a common disorder in elderly, previously suggested to be associated with cognitive impairment. This study was aimed to determine the association between 25(OH) vitamin D and cognitive impairment in the elderly. Methods: In this case-control study, 35 individuals who met criteria of cognitive impairment were examined against 35 individuals who did not have co...

Serum Eicosapentaenoic and Arachidonic Acids Concentration and Cognitive Function in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Introduction: Recent studies have shown that Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs), including Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), and Arachidonic Acid (AA), are associated with cognitive functions in patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Nevertheless, controversial results have been reported, too. The current study aimed to clarify the association of serum EPA and AA levels with cognitive decline...
