... allows to recognize better the CNV type. In our series all our cases seem to follow a 45 to 60 days cycle, after intra vitreal injection. After each injection a pruning of smaller vessels is seen immediately (after 24 hours) that increases for 6 to 12 days when it reaches a maximum. It is followed...

... causes. The annual risk of recurrent stroke ranges from 0.3 to 3.4%. Early recurrences are often in the territory of the CAD when arterial lesions had not completely recovered. Conversely, long-term recurrent ischemic events seem to take place in all territories and can be due to various mechanisms...

... independentlyof the duration of the dietary therapy. Two categoriesof RCD are being recognized: type I without aberrantT cells and type II with aberrant T cells detected byimmunophenotyping of the intestinal mucosa. In contrastto patients with a high percentage of aberrant T cells,patients with RCD type I seem...

...-oXiris. For these techniques, the efficacy of RCA seems to be superior to UFH. Regardless of the lack of large comparative studies in comparison to ones conducted for adsorptive filter techniques in CKRT, RCA and UFH will also be discussed for nonselective adsorptive sorbents like CytoSorb and Jafron HA...

... overview based on Pubmed search with key words ‘peritoneal dialysis, acute dwell, hemodialysis’. Discussion: Hemodynamic effects of an acute PD dwell seem to be consistent, but rather limited. Increasing peritoneal pressure, causing enhanced preload and thus better cardiac output, and vasoactive...

..., the latter show a special talent. Introduction Neuropsychology is primarily seen as a field of science dealing with the cognitive and behavioral consequences of brain damage. In addition, neuropsychologists have also studied “deficits” that seemed to be inborn, present from birth, or at least...

... demarcated opacities that do not show any compromised clinical structure to conditions with evident enamel breakdown or atypical cavity [ 1, 5 ]. In general, darker brownish opacities seem to be more severely hypomineralised, presenting higher breakdown risk than whitish/creamy ones [ 6‒8 ]. Thus, while...

... clinical symptoms was developed and proven to be very sensitive and specific. Pharmacological therapy seems to be very effective – it is mainly based on chelating agents like penicillamine and trientine and zinc preparations. The major problem of long-term therapy is poor compliance which can lead...

... Abstract The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has proved to be an excellent model organismfor the study of development and aging. Many aging mutants have been discovered in thepast two decades, and much has been discovered about the physiology of long-lived mutants.It therefore seems surprising...

... concerns that early detection centers seem to capture a high proportion of ‘false positives' and lead to unnecessary fear, treatment and stigma [ 7 , 8 ]. There were heated debates preceding the decision not to include the attenuated psychosis syndrome as a new category in the main body of the fifth...

... Abstract Gases are also produced while passing through the gastrointestinal tract, possibly resulting in abdominal symptoms although gas is continuously removed by eructation, anal evacuation, absorption through the intestinal mucosa, and bacterial consumption. It seems that 2–8 liters of air...

...) is viewed culturally as a positive and desirable trait, leading to major gender differences in obesity rates in many countries; (2) most of Africa has very low rates of obesity in children, and to date African obesity is mostly an adult syndrome; (3) Africans seem genetically prone to higher rates...

... as their immortalized and tumorigenic derivatives,but not with the normal differentiated daughters. These data are consistent with the stem celltheory of carcinogenesis. In addition, Gap Junctional Intercellular Communication (GJIC)seems to play a major role in cell growth. Inhibition of GJIC by non-genotoxic chemicals...

... the circumstances of his suicide at 61 as the outcome of accumulated physical deterioration, emotional distress and cognitive decline. Special attention is paid to the war wound he suffered in 1918, which seemed to involve a peculiar altered state of consciousness sometimes called ‘near-death experience’. The out...
