Effect of intravenous nitroglycerin on lipid peroxidation after thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction
(1998)
Free oxygen radicals are produced after coronary artery occlusion and reperfusion. Polyunsaturated fatty acids are oxidized by free radicals to lipid peroxides. Measurements of plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) formed by the ...
Phase II study of docetaxel-vinorelbine in platinum-resistant, paclitaxel-pretreated ovarian cancer
(2003)
Background: This multicenter, prospective phase II study evaluated the safety and efficacy of the combination of docetaxel and vinorelbine in patients with platinum-resistant, paclitaxel-pretreated recurrent ovarian cancer. ...
Perspectives for targeted therapies in cancer of unknown primary site
(2006)
Cancer of unknown primary site (CUP) ranks as the fourth most common cause of cancer deaths. Regression of the primary, early development of systemic metastases and resistance to therapy are hallmarks of this heterogeneous ...
Randomized comparison of etoposide-cisplatin vs. etoposide-carboplatin and irradiation in small-cell lung cancer: A hellenic co-operative oncology group study
(1994)
Purpose: To compare the efficacy and toxicity of etoposide and cisplatin (EP) with etoposide and carboplatin (EC) in combination with irradiation in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Methods: Previously untreated patients ...
[Disorders of vascularization in para-epiphyseal groove humeral fractures and their clinical significance for the growing skeleton]
(1987)
We analysed retrospectively 50 humerus fractures in the vicinity of elbow joint and 40 fractures of the proximal humerus with respect to possible injuries of the vessel pattern of the epiphyseal plate. The normal vessel ...
Prognostic factors in patients with colorectal cancer receiving adjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy: A pooled analysis of two randomized studies
(2005)
Background. Although the TNM system is useful in predicting survival in resected colorectal cancer, heterogeneity within the same stages regarding prognosis exists. We are presenting a pooled analysis of prognostic factors ...
Colorectal cancer screening awareness in European primary care
(2006)
Background: Adjustment for stage at diagnosis markedly reduces USA versus European colorectal cancer survival differences and a screening bias was therefore suspected. Moreover, little is known about colorectal cancer ...
Prognostic utility of β-tubulin isotype III and correlations with other molecular and clinicopathological variables in patients with early breast cancer: A translational Hellenic Cooperative Oncology Group (HeCOG) study
(2011)
We evaluated the prognostic and predictive utility of β-tubulin isotype III (TUBB3) tumour gene transcription in early breast cancer patients enrolled in a randomised study. Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase ...
