Errors in clinical laboratories or errors in laboratory medicine?
Tập 44 Số 6 - 2006
AbstractLaboratory testing is a highly complex process and, although laboratory
services are relatively safe, they are not as safe as they could or should be.
Clinical laboratories have long focused their attention on quality control
methods and quality assessment programs dealing with analytical aspects of
testing. However, a growing body of evidence accumulated in recent decades
demonstrates tha...
Glyoxal and Methylglyoxal Levels in Diabetic Patients: Quantitative Determination by a New GC/MS Method
Tập 41 Số 9 - 2003
Regulation of Lipid and Lipoprotein Metabolism by PPAR Activators
Tập 38 Số 1 - Trang 3-11 - 2000
Abstract The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are
ligand-activated transcription factors belonging to the nuclear hormone receptor
superfamily. PPARα, the first identified PPAR family member, is principally
expressed in tissues exhibiting high rates of β-oxidation such as liver, kidney,
heart and muscle. PPARγ, on the other hand, is expressed at high levels in
adipose tissue. PP...
The role of red blood cell distribution width in cardiovascular and thrombotic disorders
Tập 50 Số 4 - 2012
AbstractThe red blood cell (RBC) distribution width (RDW) is a measurement of
the size variation as well as an index of the heterogeneity of the erythrocytes
(i.e., anysocytosis), which is typically used in combination with the mean
corpuscular volume to troubleshoot the cause of an underlying anemia. Reliable
data emerged from a variety of clinical studies have, however, disclosed a new
and unpre...
Procalcitonin (PCT)-guided antibiotic stewardship: an international experts consensus on optimized clinical use
Tập 57 Số 9 - Trang 1308-1318 - 2019
Abstract Background Procalcitonin (PCT)-guided antibiotic stewardship (ABS) has
been shown to reduce antibiotics (ABxs), with lower side-effects and an
improvement in clinical outcomes. The aim of this experts workshop was to derive
a PCT algorithm ABS for easier implementation into clinical routine across
different clinical settings. Methods Clinical evidence and practical experience
with PCT-gui...
Follitropin (FSH) Deficiency in an Infertile Male due to FSHβ Gene Mutation. A Syndrome of Normal Puberty and Virilization but Under-developed Testicles with Azoospermia, Low FSH but High Lutropin and Normal Serum Testosterone Concentrations
Tập 36 Số 8 - Trang 663-665 - 1998
Abstract We studied a man who sought medical attention at age 28 years because
of infertility in both his first and second marriages. His sexual development
appeared to have been normal, with normal puberty and virilization, and normal
libido and sexual potency. At examination, his testicles were small and soft;
otherwise he had a normal physical appearance. Evaluations revealed azoospermia,
undet...
Oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein: Atherogenic and Proinflammatory Characteristics during Macrophage Foam Cell Formation. An Inhibitory Role for Nutritional Antioxidants and Serum Paraoxonase
Tập 37 Số 8 - Trang 777-787 - 1999
Abstract Oxidative stress and inflammatory processes are of major importance in
atherogenesis because they stimulate oxidized LDL (Ox-LDL)-induced macrophage
cholesterol accumulation and foam cell formation, the hallmark of early
atherosclerosis. Under oxidative stress, both blood monocytes and plasma
lipoproteins invade the arterial wall, where they are exposed to atherogenic
modifications. Oxida...
