Transitional Devices

Health status of population in Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 15 years of transitional period.

War in Bosnia and Herzegovina lasted from 1991 to 1995 and resulted in profound consequences marked by the large number of victims, increase in the diseases and disorders prevalence, that were not common before it occurred. The effects it had on health status of the entire population was reflected through many negative demographic trends, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and the spread...

Correlation of P53 status with histological grading of urinary Bladder Transitional cell carcinoma

Bladder cancer is one of the most common urological malignancies. Ninety percent of the bladder tumors are transitional cell carcinomas. The most important molecular mechanism in the development of carcinogenesis is the Deletions or inactivation of the cancer suppressor genes. Several suppressor gene loci have been closely associated with bladder cancer. These include p53 on chromosome 17p, ret...

Relationships among MTHFR a1298c gene polymorphisms and methylation status of Dact1 gene in transitional cell carcinomas.

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between methylation status of the Dact1 gene and MTHFR a1298c polymorphic forms in transitional cell carcinoma tissues in a Chinese population. METHODS Polymorphisms of folate metabolism enzyme gene MTHFR were assessed by restrictive fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) methods and PCR-based DNA methylation analysis was use...

The English Channel: Contamination status of its transitional and coastal waters.

The chemical contamination (organic compounds, metals, radionuclides, microplastics, nutrients) of English Channel waters has been reviewed, focussing on the sources, concentrations and impacts. River loads were only reliable for Pb, whereas atmospheric loads appeared robust for Cd, Pb, Hg, PCB-153 and γ-HCH. Temporal trends in atmospheric inputs were decreasing. Contaminant concentrations in b...
