Background: Pulmonary embolism (PE) remains a major concern in emergency patients presenting with respiratory symptoms, an increase the demand for CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) and low yields of this ever more sensitive test. We wanted to investigate factors associated on CTPA, aiming reduce unnecessary requests. Methods: In single-center, retrospective study, we analyzed all CTPA reports during year 2023. Various patients’ variables were evaluated associations presence/absence PE,...
Disease- and treatment-mediated immunodeficiency might render SARS-CoV-2 vaccines less effective in patients with hematologic diseases. We performed a prospective non-interventional study to evaluate humoral response after one two doses of mRNA-1273, BNT162b2, or ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine 118 different malignant non-malignant diseases from three Croatian treatment centers. An electrochemiluminescent assay was used measure total anti-SARS-CoV-2 S-RBD antibody titers. After dose, 20/66 (33%)...
Previous studies have demonstrated cardiovascular causes to be among the leading of death after liver (LT) and kidney transplantation (KT). Although both recipient populations unique pre-transplant burdens, they share similarities in post-transplant exposure risk factors. The aim this study was compare mortality LT KT.We analyzed 370 consecutive 207 KT recipients from in-hospital records at a single tertiary transplant center. Cardiovascular were defined as cardiac arrest, heart failure,...
Organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1) and the ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 2, ABCG2, are important transporters involved in transport of endogenous substrates xenobiotics, including drugs. Genetic polymorphisms these have effect on transporter activity. There is significant interethnic variability frequency allele variants.To determined genotype frequencies ABCG2 SLCO1B1 genes Croatian populations European descent.A total 905 subjects (482 women) were included....
