Metalloproteinases (MPs) belong to the superfamily of zinc endopeptidases, which are called metzincins. Three families of MPs have been studied in healthy and diseased conditions in humans. The first study on MPs was published in 1962, and following...
Focal vibration therapy seeks to restore the physiological function of tissues and the nervous system. Recommendations for vibration settings, e.g., that could improve residual limb health and prosthesis acceptance in people with amputation, are pend...
Physician detection of heart sound abnormality is complicated by the inherent difficulty of detecting critical abnormalities in the presence of noise. Computer-aided heart auscultation provides a promising alternative for more accurate detection, wit...
Numerous studies have investigated in-stent restenosis (ISR) predictors in first-generation drug-eluting stents (DESs), but only a few have investigated second-generation DESs. We aimed to investigate the ISR predictors following a successful DES imp...
Leiomyosarcomas (LMSs) are malignant neoplasms of soft muscle differentiation that can be classified into five distinct groups according to site-related origin: intra-abdominal, subcutaneous or deep soft tissue of the limbs, cutaneous, external genit...
