Association between hla class I alleles and morbid obesity
(Science Direct, 2019)Cancer survivors have a higher risk of type-2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease due to treatment-related effects and fatigue-related reductions in exercise. -
Catheter-directed gastric artery embolization with octreotide acetate loaded PLA/PLGA (poly[lactide-co-glycolide] acid) microspheres with slow sustained-release properties suppresses the plasma concentration of ghrelin, which results in weight loss
(Science Direct, 2019)Purpose: The objective of the present work was to formulate slow- and sustained-release octreotide acetate-loaded PLA/PLGA (polylactide)(poly (Lactic-co- Glycolic) acid) microspheres and prospectively test the effects ... -
EEG theta and alpha responses in patients with parkinson's disease with and without hallucinations
(Science Direct, 2018)Hallucinations in Parkinson ‘s disease (PD) could affect about one-quarter of the patients. There are limited studies on how the hallucinations effect cognitive states of the patients with Parkinson’s disease. -
The effect of cerebellar transcranial direct current stimulation on balance tests in healthy young
(Science Direct, 2019)Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) studies showed positive results about postural control and motor adaptation especially in patients and older adults. We aimed to investigate the effect of cerebellar anodal ... -
The effect of robotic rehabilitation for recovery of hand functions in patients with acute stroke: pilot study
(Science Direct, 2020)Stroke is one of the main causes of disability worldwide [1]. Although there are some functional improvements in weeks and months in the acute period after stroke, the improvement of motor functions in the upper limb is ... -
Effectiveness and safety transarterial embolization with bleomycin-loaded PLA/PLGA (polylactic acid)(poly[lactic-co-glycolic acid]) microspheres for treatment of vascular malformation using a porcine spleen model
(Science Direct, 2019)To prospectively study the effectiveness and safety of Bleomycin-loaded PLA/PLGA microparticles in the porcine spleen model -
Effectiveness of tDCS blinding protocol in a sham-controlled study
(Science Direct, 2017)There are surprisingly few studies investigating the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) blinding protocols. The objective of the present study was to determine whether a commonly used DC ... -
Embolization of rabbit renal arteries to test feasibility and effects of CT-visible doxorubicin-eluting montmorillonite microparticles
(Science Direct, 2019)Purpose: To develop CT-visible doxorubicin (DOX)-eluting montmorillonite microparticles for transarterial embolization. -
Frontal theta response in parkinson's disease during auditory and visual cognitive paradigms
(Science Direct, 2018)Introduction: Cognitive Impairment in Parkinson’s disease could occur by the progression of the disease. Event-related theta responses in the frontal region is strongly connected with cognitive processes. Increase of theta ... -
Gene regulation by antisense transcription: a focus on neurological and cancer diseases
(Science Direct, 2022)Advances in high-throughput sequencing over the past decades have led to the identification of thousands of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which play a major role in regulating gene expression. One emerging class of ncRNAs is ... -
Identification of microenvironmental regulation and therapeutic targeting of ongenic EF-2 kinase in pancreatic cancer
(Science Direct, 2018)Introduction Pancreatic cancer (PaCa) is one of the most aggressive and deadliest cancer with 6 months average survival rate. Recent studies indicate that the tumour microenvironment (TME) plays an important role in all ... -
Multi-elemental analysis of flour types and breads by using laser induced breakdown spectroscopy
(Science Direct, 2020)Bread and flour are most commonly used products in human diet, which makes it susceptible to adulteration, mislabeling and addition of unpermitted amount of different flour types. The objective of this work was to evaluate ... -
Multifunctional iron oxide nanoparticle-embedded PVP-HEC microparticles as a drug-eluting embolic material
(Science Direct, 2019)To develop MRI imageable novel HEC-PVP-magnetic embolic particles intended for transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and magnetic ablation -
A possible link between the mitochondrial gatekeeper pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme complex and EMT
(Science Direct, 2018)Introduction In recent years, mitochondria have attracted much attention in metastatic cancer research. The first finding of the importance of mitochondria in cancer was reported by Otto Warburg in 1920. In the following ... -
Revisional surgery: robotic one anastomosis gastric bypass due to stenosis after sleeve gastrectomy
(Science Direct, 2019)We present a 56 years old lady with body mass index (BMI) of 34 kg/m2. who had laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy three years ago and lost 58kg after surgery. However, she was admitted to the hospital with severe reflux ... -
Robotic one anastomosis gastric bypass (ROAGB/MGB) vs laparoscopic one anastomosis gastric bypass (LOAGB/MGB)
(Science Direct, 2019)One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass(OAGB) is a new and relatively simple procedure which has been shown to be effective and safe as a laparoscopic bariatric procedure. The present study aims to analyze our robotic OAGB using ... -
Role of long noncoding RNAs during stress in cereal crops
(Science Direct, 2021)For the last four decades, the journey of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) biology has been still proceeding with great interest. lncRNAs can exert their functions in diverse biological processes, including development, genomic ... -
