The main objective of the study was to find out prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms in the population of patients with AMI with ST-segment elevation (STEMI), treated with primary PCI… (More)
It is well established that the incidence and infarct size in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is subject to circadian variations. At the molecular level, circadian clocks in distinct cells,… (More)
Stroke represents devastating pathology which is associated with a high morbidity and mortality. Initial damage caused directly by the onset of stroke, primary injury, may be eclipsed by secondary… (More)
BACKGROUND
Stroke is devastating cerebrovascular event which is responsible for 6.7 million deaths each year worldwide. Inflammation plays an important role in the pathophysiology of stroke.… (More)
Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) is a member of the matrix metalloproteinase enzyme family that degrades components of the extracellular matrix. Recent studies have demonstrated several polymorphic… (More)
BACKGROUND
The study was designed to investigate the associations among polymorphisms TNF-B Ncol and TNF-alpha -308G/A, plasma TNF-alpha levels and metabolic and anthropometric parameters related to… (More)
