Prolactin and Dehydroepiandrosterone Levels in Women with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: The Role of the Extrapituitary Prolactin Promoter Polymorphism at −1149G/T
(2015-10-25)Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has shown an association with high levels of prolactin, low levels of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and induction of inflammatory cytokines in the serum of patients with the disease. ... -
Promising insights into the health related quality of life for children with severe obesity
(2013-03-01)Childhood obesity is a growing health concern known to adversely affect quality of life in children and adolescents. The Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) pediatric measures were developed ... -
A Proposed Set of Metrics to Reduce Patient Safety Risk From Within the Anatomic Pathology Laboratory
(2017-05)Background: Anatomic pathology laboratory workflow consists of 3 major specimen handling processes. Among the workflow are preanalytic, analytic, and postanalytic phases that contain multistep subprocesses with great impact ... -
Proposing a Transactional Model of eHealth Literacy: Concept Analysis
(2018-10-02)Background: Electronic health (eHealth) literacy was conceptualized in 2006 as the ability of internet users to locate, evaluate, and act upon web-based health information. Now, advances in eHealth technology have cultivated ... -
Prospective study examining clinical outcomes associated with a negative pressure wound therapy system and Barker's vacuum packing technique
(2013-05-15)The open abdomen has become a common procedure in the management of complex abdominal problems and has improved patient survival. The method of temporary abdominal closure (TAC) may play a role in patient outcome. A ... -
Prospects for the study of evolution in the deep biosphere
(2012)Since the days of Darwin, scientists have used the framework of the theory of evolution to explore the interconnectedness of life on Earth and adaptation of organisms to the ever-changing environment. The advent of molecular ... -

Protection and sensitization of normal and tumor cells to proton radiation by cerium oxide nanoparticles
(2015-11)Cerium oxide nanoparticles are investigated as radioprotectors and radiosensitizers for normal (healthy) and tumor cells for charged particle radiation. Results are presented for cell survival and DNA damage for in-vitro ... -
Protein Kinase A Governs Oxidative Phosphorylation Kinetics and Oxidant Emitting Potential at Complex I
(2015)he mitochondrial electron transport system (ETS) is responsible for setting and maintaining both the energy and redox charges throughout the cell. Reversible phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins, particularly via ... -
The proteome of extracellular vesicles released by clastic cells differs based on their substrate
(2019-07-10)Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from osteoclasts are important regulators in intercellular communication. Here, we investigated the proteome of EVs from clastic cells plated on plastic (clasts), bone (osteoclasts) and dentin ... -
Proteome quantification of cotton xylem sap suggests the mechanisms of potassiumdeficiency-induced changes in plant resistance to environmental stresses
(2016-02)Proteomics was employed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of apoplastic response to potassium(K)-deficiency in cotton. Low K (LK) treatment significantly decreased the K and protein contents of xylem sap. Totally, ... -
