Aberrant cortical associative plasticity associated with severe adult Tourette syndrome
(Wiley, 2015)
Background. Recent studies have shown altered cortical plasticity in adult patients with Tourette syndrome. However, the clinical significance of this finding remains elusive. Methods. Motor cortical plasticity was evaluated ...

Role of Circulating Cell-free DNA Levels in Patients With Severe Preeclampsia and HELLP Syndrome
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
BACKGROUND Increased plasma levels of circulating cell-free DNA (c-f DNA) have been recently described in diseases related to ischemia and/or hypoxia. Preeclampsia (PCL) is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy, of unknown ...

Prevalence and transmission dynamics of Escherichia coli ST131 among contacts of infected community and hospitalized patients
(Elsevier, 2018)
Objectives: The Escherichia coli O25b-associated ST131 clonal group was recently found to be prevalent in our area as a cause of community-acquired urinary tract infections. We evaluated the transmission dynamics and ...

Olive oil polyphenols decrease blood pressure and improve endothelial function in young women with mild hypertension
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
Background: Olive oil polyphenols have been associated with several cardiovascular health benefits. This study aims to examine the influence of a polyphenol-rich olive oil on blood pressure (BP) and endothelial function ...

Decreased Level of Cord Blood Circulating Endothelial Colony-Forming Cells in Preeclampsia
(American Heart Association, 2014)
Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related disorder associated with increased cardiovascular risk for the offspring. Endothelial colony–forming cells (ECFCs) are a subset of circulating endothelial progenitor cells that participate ...

Maternal Body-Mass Index and Cord Blood Circulating Endothelial Colony-Forming Cells
(Elsevier, 2014)
Objective Endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) are a subset of circulating endothelial progenitor cells that are particularly abundant in umbilical cord blood. We sought to determine whether ECFC abundance in cord ...

Total and Fetal Circulating Cell-Free DNA, Angiogenic, and Antiangiogenic Factors in Preeclampsia and HELLP Syndrome
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
BACKGROUND Preeclampsia (PE) is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy characterized by hypertension and proteinuria. The HELLP syndrome is the most severe form of PE. The aim of the present study was to determine different ...

Machine learning models for the differential diagnosis of vascular parkinsonism and Parkinson's disease using [(123)I]FP-CIT SPECT
(Springer, 2015)
Purpose: The study’s objective was to develop diagnostic predictive models using data from two commonly used [(123)I]FP-CIT SPECT assessment methods: region-of-interest (ROI) analysis and whole-brain voxel-based analysis. ...

Modelling the epidemiology of Escherichia coli ST131 and the impact of interventions on the community and healthcare centres
(Cambridge University Press, 2016)
ST131 Escherichia coli is an emergent clonal group that has achieved successful worldwide spread through a combination of virulence and antimicrobial resistance. Our aim was to develop a mathematical model, based on ...

miRNAs in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(Elsevier, 2018)
Background & Aims microRNAs (miRNAs) are deregulated in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and have been proposed as useful markers for the diagnosis and stratification of disease severity. We conducted a meta-analysis ...
