Serum Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor Gamma Coactivator-1α Related to Myocardial Energy Expenditure in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure.

The American journal of the medical sciences
BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) plays key roles in controlling cardiac metabolism and function. Myocardial energy expenditure (MEE) can reflect myocardial energy metabolism and cardiac function. Wh...

Serum level of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and N-terminal propeptide of procollagen type I (PINP) in patients with liver diseases.

Scandinavian journal of clinical and laboratory investigation
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to evaluate the concentration of interleukin-6 and N-terminal propeptide of procollagen type I and their relationship in liver diseases of different etiologies.

Specific and intrinsic sequence patterns extracted by deep learning from intra-protein binding and non-binding peptide fragments.

Scientific reports
The key finding in the DNA double helix model is the specific pairing or binding between nucleotides A-T and C-G, and the pairing rules are the molecule basis of genetic code. Unfortunately, no such rules have been discovered for proteins. Here we sh...

A machine learning approach for the identification of new biomarkers for knee osteoarthritis development in overweight and obese women.

Osteoarthritis and cartilage
OBJECTIVE: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is among the higher contributors to global disability. Despite its high prevalence, currently, there is no cure for this disease. Furthermore, the available diagnostic approaches have large precision errors and low...

A genotypic method for determining HIV-2 coreceptor usage enables epidemiological studies and clinical decision support.

Retrovirology
BACKGROUND: CCR5-coreceptor antagonists can be used for treating HIV-2 infected individuals. Before initiating treatment with coreceptor antagonists, viral coreceptor usage should be determined to ensure that the virus can use only the CCR5 corecepto...

Cardiac Biomarkers of Low Cardiac Output Syndrome in the Postoperative Period After Congenital Heart Disease Surgery in Children.

Revista espanola de cardiologia (English ed.)
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: To assess the predictive value of atrial natriuretic peptide, β-type natriuretic peptide, copeptin, mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) and cardiac troponin I (cTn-I) as indicators of low cardiac output syndrome i...

Predictive value of circulating osteonectin in patients with ischemic symptomatic chronic heart failure.

Biomedical journal
BACKGROUND: Osteonectin (OSN) plays a pivotal role in cardiac remodeling, but predictive value for OSN in ischemic chronic heart failure (CHF) has not been defined. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prognostic value of OSN for cumulative survi...
