Background: CT scan and nuclear medicine exams deliver a great part of medical exposures. This study examined professional radiation hazards in CT scan and nuclear medicine workers.   Methods : In a cross sectional study 30 occupationally exposed workers and 7 controls (all from personnel of a laboratory) were selected. Physical dosimetry was performed for exposed workers. Blood samples were ...

Research relating personality variables to gratitude God (GTG) is in its nascent stages, as only a few descriptive, correlational studies have been conducted on this topic. We investigated whether two kinds of variables—positive emotional traits and adaptive relational styles—predicted higher GTG. Hypotheses linking these GTG were based novel, preregistered conceptual framework. also explored g...

In recent years, Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis has been a primary cause of human salmonellosis in many countries. The major objective of this study was to investigate genetic diversity among Salmonella Enteritidis strains from different origins (food and human) by Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus (ERIC) -PCR, as well as to assess their plasmid profiling and antimicrobia...

Paternal microdeletion of chromosome 15 at q11-q13 has been reported in 75% of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) patients in western countries. Diagnosis of PWS in Thailand is mainly based on clinical observation and, in some cases, confirmed by conventional cytogenetic analysis. Loss of a tiny segment in this region (microdeletion) has made it difficult to discriminate from the normal karyotype. An ...

Early detection of abnormalities in early pregnancy and they can be terminated once the baby was born with a disability that economic, social and cultural rights, there are a lot of families and community and overhead families and community prevent, so far none of the known human chromosomal abnormalities are treatable and the only way to deal with these diseases limit to prenatal diagnosis and...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE We have previously reported on a complex chromosome rearrangement [der(17)] in a B-cell line, BRG A, established from an AIDS patient with Burkitt's lymphoma (BL). The aim of the present study was the definition of der(17) composition and the identification of complete or partial chromosome gains and losses in two cell clones (BRG A and BRG M) derived from this patient....

In two pre-registered studies we investigated the cognitive context of gratitude to God (GTG) and fading positive affect grateful memories. Although has been shown causally impact happiness, few have how nature benefactor might experienced gratitude. Participants first recalled a event, human-caused benefit, or God-caused benefit. After recall they reported their current momentary emotions, pas...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease with respect to clinical prognosis and acquired chromosomal aberrations. After routine banding cytogenetic analysis 45% of AML patients show a normal karyotype (NK-AML). For a better understanding of development and progression in AML, it is important to find markers which could be primary genetic aberrations. Therefore, in this study 31 p...

Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is the most common sex chromosomal disorder in men. Most of these patients show the 47,XXY karyotype, whereas approximately 15% of them are mosaics with variable phenotype. A 39-year-old male investigated for primary infertility, was clinically normal with small firm testes and elevated levels of FSH, LH and low level of testosterone. Total azoospermia was confirmed on...
