Evaluation of the frequency and necessity of proton-pump-inhibitor therapy in geriatric patients
Anna Laura Emma Müller
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the usage of proton pump inhibitors in geriatric patients in the general medicine ward. Additionally, the study also looked into polypharmacy among those patients. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study analyzed medical histories and medication lists of patients in the general medicine ward at Regiomed Klinikum Coburg during June 2019 and June 2023. A convenience sample of 154 geriatric patients was used during the selection...
Evaluation of the “Uroli App” for Urinary Stone Metaphylaxis
Evaluation of the “Uroli App” for Urinary Stone Metaphylaxis
Katharina Sklorz
Objectives: The aim of our study was to analyze, how effective the “Uroli” application is to support the metaphylaxis of adult patients with urolithiasis after acute treatment of a kidney or ureter stone, compared to metaphylaxis without the “Uroli” application in terms of medical benefit and patient-relevant structural and procedural improvements. Fluid intake, urine pH values and specific gravity were examined in the respective groups. Materials and Methods: This prospective RCT...

CILJ ISTRAŽIVANJA: Prikazati razlike amplitude i latencije vala P300 između ispitanika s blagim spoznajnim oštećenjem i ispitanika iz kontrolne skupine. USTROJ ISTRAŽIVANJA: Provedena je presječna studija u trajanju od 1. travnja 2012. god. do 10. srpnja 2012. god. Glavni kriterij uključivanja bila je dijagnoza blagog spoznajnog oštećenja. MJESTO ISTRAŽIVANJA: Istraživanje je provedeno na Klinici za neurologiju KBC-a Split, referentni centar za evocirane potencijale...
Explorative study about the effect of classical music on procedure related anxiety in patients with peripheral artery disease
Explorative study about the effect of classical music on procedure related anxiety in patients with peripheral artery disease
Johannes Pampel
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate a newly assembled classical music playlist with a qualitative survey as well as its effect on procedure related anxiety measured with mNRS and physiologic parameters in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Therefore, patients receiving percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) where randomly assigned to a music and control group. In addition, anamnestic and demographic data was analyzed. Subjects and methods: 25 patients were...
Expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) in high grade and low grade endometrial carcinomas
Expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) in high grade and low grade endometrial carcinomas
Leon Romeo Schmid
Objectives: to investigate HIF-1α immunohistochemical expression in high grade and low grade endometrial carcinomas and to compared the results. Patient’s age at the time of diagnosis, tumor size, depth of myometrial invasion, presence of vascular invasion and lymph node involvement was also noted for each studied group and compared. Subject and method: 10 cases of high grade endometrial carcinoma and 10 cases of low grade endometrial carcinoma were enrolled in the study....
Expression of inversin and DVL-1 in the liver of yotari (Dab1-/-) and wild-type mice
Expression of inversin and DVL-1 in the liver of yotari (Dab1-/-) and wild-type mice
Vanessa Elena Preid Galešić
Objectives: Invs and DVL-1 expression patterns in the liver of yot (Dab1-/-) mice are the focus of this study, which attempts to clarify their possible roles in the pathophysiology of hepatic abnormalities linked to the Dab1 loss. This study aims to advance knowledge of the molecular processes that underlie the emergence of hepatic dysfunction in the context of Dab1 disruption, elucidating possible ramifications for hepatic physiology and associated treatment approaches. Materials and...
Expression of vitamin D receptors in the superior cervical ganglia of rats
Expression of vitamin D receptors in the superior cervical ganglia of rats
Genia Marlen Gordana Kretzschmar
Objectives: We investigated the distribution of vitamin D receptors (VDR), 1α-hydroxylase (1-α- OHase/ CYP27B1), 24-hydroxylase (CYP24) in neuronal subpopulations and satellite glia in the superior cervical ganglia (SCGs) of rats. Materials and methods: Four male Sprague-Dawley rats were raised under controlled conditions. The rats were sacrificed at twelwe weeks of age, and their superior cervical ganglia embedded in paraffin and prepared for immunohistochemistry. The intensity of...
Expression pattern of Snail in the kidneys of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
Expression pattern of Snail in the kidneys of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
Samy Mehdi Ksouri
Objectives: The most prevalent cause of chronic kidney disease is diabetic nephropathy (DN), which can lead to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and premature death in developed countries but knowledge about these changes is still unsatisfactorily. Specific factors can be used to study developmental pathways and changes in rat diabetic kidneys. Snail is a superfamily of genes that has been found to control gastrulation and neural crest EMT through E-cadherin down-regulation. Snail is located in...
