Effects of the prophylactic use of escitalopram on the prognosis and the plasma copeptin level in patients with acute cerebral infarction by Jin-Xia Cao (10461533)

“…<div><p>This study aimed to investigate whether the routine administration of escitalopram for three months would improve the prognosis of patients with ischemic stroke and decrease the plasma copeptin level. A total of 97 patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly allocated to receive escitalopram (5-10 mg once per day, orally; n=49) or not to receive escitalopram (control group; n=48) for 12 weeks starting at 2-7 days after the onset of stroke. …”

Can carcinoembryonic antigen replace computed tomography in response evaluation of metastatic colorectal cancer? by Kethe Hermunen (4813167)

“…Secondarily, increasing CEA was able to identify all PD patients (sensitivity (Se) = 1.0) and in 50–74% of the patients increasing CEA provided a lead time to PD on upcoming CT. It was possible to replace CT with CEA in all patients with decreasing CEA, meaning that 23–47% of CT scans could have been avoided at any given time point.…”

Phenotypic analysis of integrated homozygous diploid <i>pda1</i> site-directed mutants. by Cole Johnson (222835)

“…C) Western analysis of each individual point mutant as well as the combined <i>pda1-Y309A-S313A</i> mutant indicates that Pda1p levels are comparable to those observed in a wild-type strain; thus, the observed phenotypes do not result from decreased levels of Pda1p. …”
