Osteoporosis and increased arterial stiffness independently have been found to be associated with higher cardiovascular events rates in the general population (GP). We examined 558 patients from GP by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) pulse wave velocity (PWV) measurements at baseline, 36-month follow-up period. DXA assessed bone mineral density of femoral neck (BMD FN) lumbar spine LS). Carotid-femoral PWV was pulsed-Doppler. The aim our study is find correlation between strength their...
Osteoporosis and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) are associated with increased morbidity mortality in postmenopausal women. The aim of this study was to determine the accuracy anterior-posterior (AP) dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) compared that lateral lumbar radiography (LLR) detecting scoring AAC.In cross-sectional conducted 56 asymptomatic females aged 59.0 ± 9.3 years who never used medications treat osteoporosis before, we determined femoral neck spine bone mineral density...
The aim of this study was to find a correlation between acute-phase proteins (APPs) and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) as well the impact APPs on AAC in chronic dialysis patients (CDPs). Native lateral lumbar radiography biochemical analysis were performed 112 CDPs (aged 60.0 ± 5.43 years) estimate score values APPs. mean 8.39 5.43. We detected 16 (14.28%) without 96 (85.71%) with (10 5.43). number ≤4 34 (30.36%) 1.85 1.94. By multiple regression analysis, we found positive ferritin (β...
Isolated maternal hypothyroxinemia (IMH) is defined as the presence of low total thyroxine (TT4) level in conjunction with normal thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level. The aim was to investigate whether IMH associated adverse pregnancy outcome North Macedonia. Dried blood spot samples were obtained from 359 pregnant women meeting inclusion criteria and analyzed for TT4 TSH. Postpartum data entered their medical histories. Out women, 131 (37.42%) belonged group. There statistically...
Introduction: Mesenteric pseudocyst describes an abdominal mass that appears on small bowel mesentery or mesocolon, at any part of the abdomen and retroperitoneum. This paper aims to emphasize non-specific clinical appearance highlight Meckel’s diverticulitis as a potential cause development pseudocyst. Case Report: A 26-year-old male with palpable in right upper quadrant increased body temperature 38.3∘C was admitted for further medical investigation. Computed tomography (CT) presented...
Thyroid diseases are the second most common endocrine disorders in reproductive period of women. They can be associated with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), preterm delivery, low Apgar score, birthweight (LBW) or fetal death. The aim present study is to explore thyroid dysfunction and its relationship some poor perinatal outcomes (Apgar Score, birthweight, delivery). Dried blood spot samples from 358 healthy pregnant women were analyzed for stimulating hormone (TSH), total thyroxine...
The aim of this study was to find the difference between liver function test (LFT) and hepatorenal index (HRI), before after administration
The gamma gap (γ-gap) represents the total serum protein concentration minus albumin concentration. main aim of this study was to test whether is a predictor mortality and it associated with other predictors in chronic hemodialysis patients (CHPs).We studied cohort 100 CHPs mean age 59 ± 12.3 years duration dialysis 6.5 4.7 years. Serum proteins were determined by electrophoresis. association C-reactive (CRP), fibrinogen evaluated for correlation. Cox regression analysis used identify...
Resistive index (RI) could provide more useful diagnostic and prognostic information for kidney disease than parenchymal thickness (PT) only. The aims of this study were to find the association between PT, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), RI their determination renal function. B-mode Doppler ultrasonography standard biochemical laboratory testing (urea creatinine) performed among 75 participants (57.1 ± 10.6 years). We measured PT calculated GFR. mean deviation 0.671 0.041, 12.24 1.98 mm,...
Background/Aims: Doppler ultrasonography is used in clinical gynecologic practice to detect the renal macroscopic vascular abnormalities and changes blood flow at micro level.The aim of study was find differences between parameters pregnant nonpregnat participants, associative connection those with certain stages gestation period.Methods: evaluations both kidneys were performed 65 women 35 healthy volonteers from control group (CG).We measured resistive index (RI) level arcuate or interlobar...
Abstract Introduction. The most common risk factor for intraepithelial lesions and cervical carcinoma is infection with human papillomavirus (HPV), especially high-risk HPV genotypes. Only persistent, infections represent a major cancer. aims of the study were: detection typisation genotypes, which are causes cancer, determination correlation between histopathological diagnosis, grade lesion cervix oncogenic potential virus as well affected age group patients. Methods. This cross-sectional...
Abstract Introduction. Bacterial vaginosis is polymicrobial, primarily anaerobic infection, previously called non-specific vaginitis or accompanied by Gardne-rella vaginallis. It a result of an imbalance between different types bacteria in the vagina. The aim study was to determine association bacterial and squamous intraepithelial lesions uterine cervix. Methods. This cross-sectional conducted series 338 sexually active women with cytologicallly diagnosed lesion cervix at University Clinic...
The aim of this study was to compare the aortic stiffness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) general population (GP) and evaluate determinants their stiffness. group consisted 80 RA 71 matched GP. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) assessed by Doppler ultrasonography. Biochemical analyses were conducted for serum using standard laboratory procedures. mean PWV values 7.687±1.03 versus 7.253±0.97 m/s GP, respectively. average coordination duration (RAD) variations is present equation linear...
In the evaluation of patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD), presence superficial femoral (SFA) plaque is more informative than a carotid and at least as in identification death individuals. 60 chest pain normal electrocardiogram, B-flow ultrasound estimation SFA radionuclide myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) for CAD was performed. We found significant positive correlations between age score (PS) (P = 0.0084), ischemia rest PS < 0.0001), transient ischemic dilation (TID)...
<h3>Introduction/Background</h3> To determine the prevalence of abnormal Pap smears in different ethnic population women from Macedonia. In our country, smear test is included prevention program against cervical cancer to be performed every year aged 18 65. <h3>Methodology</h3> We analyzed 1145 female patients, 129 with and 1016 controls. The study was 2015 18–65, at University Clinic for Gynecology Obstetrics, Private General Hospital Re-Medika, Clinical 'Dr. Trifun Panovski' Primary Health...
