BACKGROUND Fluid balance affects outcome in critically ill patients. We studied the effect of fluid balance on oxygen exchange by assessing alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient (PA-a O2) in mechanically ventilated patients. Our primary objective was to evaluate the difference in PA-aO2 and the secondary goal was to evaluate the differences in age and mortality rate. MATERIALS AND METHODS This re...

Methods & Materials: Statistical population was Arak,s men and women older adults in 2012-13 and sample was two groups of older adults (over 60 yrs, mean age=68.79±6.41) dwelling in Arak (203 and 120 subjects for exploring and c...
BACKGROUND The effect of initiation of levodopa therapy on the memory functions in patients with Parkinson's disease remains poorly understood. AIMS To evaluate the effect of initiation of levodopa therapy on memory, in patients with early Parkinson's disease. SETTINGS AND DESIGN Prospective case control study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventeen patients with early Parkinson's disease were e...
D uchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) leads to progressive muscle weakness, causing respiratory failure [1, 2]. Untreated patients die at ,25 yrs of age, and the mean age of death in the 1960s was 15 yrs. The introduction of mechanical ventilation has improved survival compared with historical controls [1–3]. This finding has led to general agreement that noninvasive ventilation prolongs life in p...
The purpose of this study was to establish incidence rates for a wide range of respiratory symptoms and asthma, and relate them to sex, age, and smoking habits. A cohort established in 1985 as a random sample from the population of Western Norway, aged 15-70 yrs, was followed-up in 1996-1997. Of the initial cohort of 3,786 subjects, a total of 2,819 replied to mailed questionnaires at both base...
OBJECTIVE Both oral and global health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are markedly impaired in SSc. In this study we aimed to determine the degree of association between oral HRQoL and global HRQoL in SSc. METHODS Subjects were recruited from the Canadian Scleroderma Research Group registry. Global HRQoL was measured using the Medical Outcomes Trust 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) an...
Materials and methods Over 2000 students at random in four major universities in Minsk, Belarus were explained the study objectives. Approximately 75% of students in these universities are females. Only those who agreed to participate were considered for the study. A total of 465 males (mean age 21 yrs) and 1030 females (mean age 20.5 yrs) were administered anonymous AUDIT questionnaire and oth...
BACKGROUND Novel and robust cardiovascular (CV) markers are needed to improve CV morbidity and mortality risk prediction in type 2 diabetes (T2D). We assessed the long term predictive value of 4 novel CV risk markers for major CV events and mortality. METHODS We included patients with T2D who had cytokines (interleukin [IL]-6 and activin A [actA]), a maximum stress ECG test (evaluated by the ...
ccl22 16c/a genetic variation is not associated with breast carcinoma in southern iranian population
background: ccl22/mdc is a cc chemokine with a critical role in regulation of the immune balance in physiological condition. ccl22/ccr-4 ligation has been documented to participate in the migration of regulatory t (treg) cells and th2 lymphocytes to the site of breast tumors; circumstances that are known to be associated with poor prognosis. objective: to investigate the association of a single...
patients were interviewed 3.7¡1.88 yrs (maximum range 1.1–6.3 yrs) after the diagnosis. In total, 190 (61%, 95% confidence interval (CI) 55–67) patients confirmed a smoking history (active or former) at the time of pulmonary embolism, of whom 94 (30%, 95% CI 25–36) patients were actively smoking. Out of these 94 patients, 32 (35%, 95% CI 25–45) had successfully quit smoking in the first year fo...
