Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleChronic Kidney Disease-Mineral Bone Disoder: Fibroblast Growth Factor-23 and Phosphate MetabolismWisit Cheungpasitporn, Pongsathorn Kue-A-Pai, Patompong Ungprasert et al.Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a growing epidemic in the United States. There are hormonal changes that develop long before the mineral changes in patients with CKD occur. Increased Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) levels first become evident when the estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) is below 60 mL/min/1.73m2. High serum phosphate stimulates the secretion of the Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF-23) … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 4 May 2013 · 6,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHelicobacter pylori Infection in Never-Smoking Male Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and its Relation to Lung FunctionJordan Minov, Jovanka Karadzinska-Bislimovska, Kristin Vasilevska et al.There is a recent epidemiologic and serologic evidence for relationship between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
