Prospective observational study of estimation serum bicarbonate levels in patients CKD and association with mortality among attending department Internal medicine Nephrology.

using the evaporating method, the solubility of potassium nitrate was determined in various mixtures containing water and ethanol at 25°c. the results show that the solubility of kno3 decreases with increasing the mass percent of ethanol in the mixtures. this trend is along with decreasing the dielectric constant of water+ethanol mixtures. moreover, it can be concluded that the totqal solubilit...

OBJECTIVE Bipolar disorder (BD) is a debilitating psychiatric disease with unknown etiology. Recent studies have shown inflammation as a potential contributing factor of BD pathogenesis. However, potential associations between chemokine and chemokine receptor polymorphisms and BD have been fundamentally understudied. To identify participation of chemokines in BD pathogenesis, we examined geneti...

Lipomatous hypertrophy of interatrial septum (LHIS), usually found in echocardiography, is a rare non-neoplastic disease entity, which may cause arrhythmia or sudden death. We reported a case of LHIS associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), which was suspected a hyperechoic intraatrial tumor in transthoracic echocardiography. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging showed fat infiltration of ...

The incidence of ovarian cancer in women has been on the increase in recent years. The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of taxol on the expression of ovarian cancer-associated gene forkhead box transcription factor M1 (FoxM1) and its therapeutic effects for ovarian cancer. The expression of FoxM1 gene was examined in patients with or without ovarian cancer. RNA and protein le...

We have read the article by Waldinger et al [1]. First of all, once again we do apologise for the mistake in our article regarding a possible asssociation of the 5-HTTLPR gene polymorphism and lifelong premature ejaculation (PE) in Turkish men. Previously, the total number of patients and controls had been mistakenly written as ‘70’ instead of ‘69’. The percentage of L/S and S/S had also been w...
