background: the incidence of colorectal cancer is rising in several developing countries. in the absence of integrated endoscopy and pathology databases, adenoma detection rate (adr), as a validated quality indicator of screening colonoscopy, is generally difficult to obtain in practice. we aimed to measure the correlation of polyp-related indicators with adr in order to identify the most accur...

conclusions: based on these results, neuroticism might increase suicide, but extraversion and conscientiousness personality traits are associated with a reduced risk of suicide. results: there was a significant positive correlation (r = 0.323) between neuroticism and suicide ideation; however, significant negative correlations existed between three other personality traits --extraversion [r = -...

In this study, to reveal the antioxidant potential of goat milk cells, activities glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and levels reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), total (tGSH),malondialdehyde (MDA), vitamin C (Vit C) protein (TP) in cells were determined correlations between these parameters evaluated. Milk samples collected from 19 ...

background there is a potential risk for malignancy in patients with diabetes mellitus. theoretically, a noninvasive method for detection of precancerous changes can be conducted on oral exfoliated cell smears. objectives in this study, the immunocytochemistry of p53 in exfoliated oral mucosal cells in patients with type 2 diabetes was investigated. patients and methods oral mucosal smears were...

heritability, environmentaland genetic correlations between body weight at hatch (bw0), eight (bw8) and twelve (bw12) weeksof age, body weight at sexual maturity (bwm), age at sexual maturity (afe),the weight of the first egg laid by the hen (ewm), the mean egg weight from 28 to 32 wks (ew28-32) and egg numbers (ens) were estimated by the restricted maximum likelihood method under an animal mod...

Using hepatic vein catheterization, fractional clearance (K) and hepatic extraction rate (ER) of Indocyanine Green (ICG) and radioisotope particles (RI) were studied in cirrhotic portal hypertension (24 postnecrotic cirrhotics and 25 alcoholic cirrhotics). ICG given intravenously is cleared from blood only by hepatocytes, whereas RI are uptaken by intrahepatic (Kupffer cells) and extrahepatic r...
