background and objectives: annexin is the common name for genes and proteins that were identified as calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins. recently a more complex set of functions has been recognized for this superfamily of proteins including in vesicle trafficking, cell division, apoptosis, calcium signalling, mineralization, crystal nucleation inside the extracellular organelles-ma...

BACKGROUND Chronic periodontitis (CP) is a global public health issue. Studies have suggested CP could be linked to obesity due to their similar pathophysiological pathway. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of CP and to assess the predictors for CP among the obese Malaysian population. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study on obese participants. Obesity is defined as an i...

Abstract Introduction: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) have been found to present visual perceptual impairments (VPI). Research indicates differences in VPI various subtypes of CP. However, deficits children CP has not investigated terms occupational therapy assessment and treatment a South African context. The purpose this study was determine the specific learners ages 4-18 years attending s...

BACKGROUND Velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) may persist after primary repair of the cleft palate, and surgical correction is necessary in many cases. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of double opposing Z-plasty (DOZ) in cleft palate patients suffering from VPI after primary two-flap palatoplasty. METHODS Between March 1999 and August 2005, we identified 82 patients who un...

objective: it is a firm belief that blood transfusion is life-saving in many situations, but at the same time transfusion complications could be life-threatening. the possible effects of blood transfusion related immunomodulatory (trim) and its related mechanisms is one of the important debatable subjects in the field of blood transfusion medicine. one of the mechanisms through which transfus...

Aims The decision to consider adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) for non-small cell lung cancer is currently governed by clinical stage. This study aims assess other routinely collected pathological variables related metastasis and survival their ability predict the efficacy of AC in adenocarcinoma. Methods results A retrospective single-centre series 620 resected non-mucinous adenocarcinoma cases from...

OBJECTIVE Conotruncal cardiac anomalies frequently occur in patients with DiGeorge or velocardiofacial syndrome. Additionally, these patients may have overt or submucousal cleft palate, as well as velopharyngeal incompetence (VPI). Previous studies have demonstrated that the majority of these patients have a submicroscopic deletion of chromosome 22q11.2. We hypothesized that a subpopulation of ...

Calcium-binding proteins play essential roles in the cell. One important class of calcium-binding proteins is the annexin family. This is a family of 13 proteins, which binds to phospholipids in a calcium-dependent manner. Osteosarcoma cell line (MG-63) is a transformed cell that has many characteristics of the differentiated cell, such as a considerable serum dependency in its growth rate. Usi...

Background: When indicated, velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) is treated with pharyngoplasty consideration of patient’s age. Several studies have evaluated the relationship between age at surgery and speech outcome. The best results regarding reduction open nasality were obtained when surgeries performed around 5 to 6 years operative complications also less frequent in younger group than older...
