Body mass index and sperm quality: effects of overweight and underweight
(IVIRMA Global, IVIRMA Global, 2013)
We previously reported a negative association between body mass index (BMI) and sperm motility and seminal alpha-glucosidase concentrations (NAG), suggesting that epididymis may be a target organ for weight-linked alterations. ...
Brachiocephalic trunk anomalies and variations
(Revista Argentina de Anatomía Clínica, 2013-05-24)
Knowledge of anatomical anomalies and variations on the brachiocephalic trunk (BCT) are important in medical practice, mainly for the interpretation of diagnostic images, in surgical procedures of thorax and neck, and may ...
Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency: identification of mutations, computational validation, and phenotypic correlation in argentinian patients
(2013)
Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD; Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man [OMIM] 311250) is an urea cycle defect with Xlinked inheritance. In hemizygous males, neonatal or late onset depends on the degree of ...
Creatine metabolism and hyperammonemia in argentinian patients with ornithine transcarbamilase deficiency
(2013)
Introduction: Creatine (Cr) biosynthesis requires 2 enzymes, arginine–glycine amidinotransferase and guanidinoacetate methyltransferase, and it can be taken up by cells using transporters. Recent studies demonstrated the ...
Application of concept mapping for histology and system immune learning
(American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB), American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB), 2013)
The main objective of this work in University Teaching, National Technological University, Cordoba Regional Faculty, Argentina, was to characterize the implementation of the strategy of concept mapping for learning Histology ...
Role of ghrelin on nitric oxide secretion and implantation in mice
(2013)
During pregnancy maternal a Ghrelin (Ghr) concentration increases significantly, suggesting an important role of the peptide on the process. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the role of Ghr on implantation ...
Traking a novel human adenovirus in untreated sewages waters of Córdoba City
(2013)
Recent studies highlight the utility of analyzing untreated sewage waters to monitor shedding of viral pathogens and provide genetic information of newly species identified. In recent years, several types of human ...
Persistence of Trypanosoma cruzi in the chronic phase of Chagas disease
(2013)
One of the most important determinants of congestive heart failure and sudden death in Latin America is Chagas disease, provoked by infection with the intracellular protozoan parasiteTrypanosoma cruzi. It affects approximately ...
A novel CLN8 missense mutation underlies variant late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis in Latin America
(2013)
Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (NCL), inheritedneurodegenerative diseases of all ages, presents with storage oflipofuscin-like lipopigments in cerebral neurons and peripheraltissues. Mutations in CLN8 gene causing epilepsy ...
A novel CLN8 mutation underlies a late Infantile variant of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis in Latin America
(2013)
Introduction: Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (NCL), inherited neurodegenerative diseases of all ages, presents with storage of lipofuscin-like lipopigments in cerebral neurons and peripheral tissues. Mutations in CLN8 ...
