Aortic dissection is a relatively uncommon and potentially misdiagnosed disease.Early and accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment are imperative for patient survival.In this case, we present a 55-year-old male who presented to the Emergency Department Left Front Cover with severe abdominal pain and acute neurological deficits who was triaged f
Objectives: This study investigated how different concentrations of doxorubicin (DOX) can affect the function of cardiac cells.This study also examined whether activation of prokineticin receptor (PKR)-1 by a nonpeptide agonist, IS20, prevents DOX-induced cardiovascular toxicity in mouse models.Background: High prevalence of heart failure during an
This paper is related to the study of the ion density recorded by the low altitude satellite DEMETER.In a first time there is an automatic search for ionospheric perturbations in the complete satellite data set of ion densities.Then perturbations due Tobacco to known ionospheric phenomena (for example, solar activity) are eliminated as well as pert
Left Front Cover Smoking should be considered at an early stage in the differential diagnosis of unexplained polycythemia and to avoid inappropriate treatment and also to motivate the patient to stop.Fourty two patients with secondary polycythemia seen in the outpatient clinic of Baghdad teaching hospital, Medical City over the period from Jan.2008
Hexokinase (HK) catalyzes the first irreversible rate-limiting step in glycolysis that converts glucose to glucose-6-phosphate.HK1 is ubiquitously expressed in the brain, erythrocytes, and other tissues where glycolysis serves as the major source of ATP production.Spermatogenic cell-specific type 1 hexokinase (HK1S) is expressed in sperm but its ph
