Article Synopsis
- Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a prevalent and deadly lung cancer, with the study focusing on how genetic variations in the caspase 9 gene (CASP9) affect NSCLC risk.
- The research involved 96 NSCLC patients and 67 healthy controls, analyzing a specific CASP9 genetic variant using real-time PCR.
- Findings revealed that the GG genotype of CASP9 was more common in NSCLC patients, while the mutations GA and A were more frequent in controls, suggesting that GG is a risk factor and the A allele may reduce the risk of developing NSCLC.
Aim: Prevalence rates of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) show considerable variation among different countries and regions of the world. The primary aim of this study was to determine the nationwide prevalence and predictors of GDM in Turkey.
Methods: We conducted prospective nationwide screening among pregnant women.
Background: There is a strong relationship between lower back pain and paraspinal muscle atrophy. In this study, we aimed to investigate the prevalence of lumbar paravertebral muscle atrophy in patients with and without single-level disc herniation.
Methods: The 110 retrospectively analyzed patients in this study were divided into 2 groups.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of embryo flash position and movement of the air bubbles at 1 and 60 minutes after ET on clinical pregnancy rates (PRs).
Design: Prospective clinical trial.
Setting: University fertility clinic.
