Reference intervals for the echocardiographic measurements of the right heart in African school children and adolescents
Echocardiography is the primary imaging modality for the diagnosis and management of right ventricular (RV) failure.[2-5] Besides aiding in the diagnosis and management of conditions such as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, pulmonary embolism, and RV infarction, the …

Determination of reference intervals and decision limits for thyroid stimulating hormone and thyroxine on cord blood samples
… NBS program. This study aimed to establish reference intervals for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT4) in cord blood, as well as to compare the previous TSH radioimmunoassay with the current electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. Methods: Utilizing residual samples from …

Establishing locally derived reference intervals for full blood count parameters and white cell differential counts in the Western Cape region of South Africa
… emphasizes the need to establish locally derived reference intervals (RIs) with appropriate representation of the various ethnic groups. Accurate RIs are essential to distinguish between health and disease. Objective: To establish locally derived RIs for full blood count (FBC) and white blood cell …

An Evaluation of passive recumbent quantitative fluoroscopy to measure mid-lumber intervertebral motion in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain and healthy volunteers.
… for differences and diagnostic accuracy. Reference intervals were developed for three of the parameters and reproducibility of two were assessed. The radiation dose was compared to lumbar spine radiographs and diagnostic reference levels were established. Finally, relationships between …

Establishment and Utilization of Tools for Enhancing Foodfish Health
… fish health. The first two studies established reference intervals for immunology, hematology and plasma chemistry analytes in striped catfish in a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS). In a third study, the immunomodulatory effects after directly feeding probiotic strains of Bacillus subtilis …

Etude prospective des caractéristiques hématologiques, biochimiques et urinaires du Dogue de Bordeaux: Une race prédisposée à une glomérulopathie familiale
… breed-specific biochemical and hematological reference intervals (RI). For most of the 29 measured biochemical analytes, using the manufacturer’s generic canine RI would not have had a major clinical impact, however breed-specific RI established for 6 of them were relevantly different. Limits …

AN EXPANSION ON DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC MARKERS IN DOGS WITH ACUTE AND CHRONIC HEART FAILURE
… These results suggested that population-based reference values of this parameter might not be representative of the RAAS activity of the single patient, and an individual monitoring may be more appropriate. In humans, the influence of sex on RAAS activity has been primarily related to female …

Utilisation des mécanismes endogènes de modulation de la douleur en contexte clinique : élaboration de valeurs normatives, mesure de la fidélité test-retest et développement et validation d’un modèle de prédiction
Introduction : Les mécanismes de modulation de la douleur sont des processus physiologiques qui régulent la perception de la douleur. La sommation temporelle (ST - mécanismes excitateurs) et les CPM (mécanismes inhibiteurs) ont particulièrement été étudiés à cet égard. D'une part, ils apparaissent …

The use of translocation as a conservation tool in the protection of dhub (Uromastyx aegyptia leptieni) against urbanisation in the Emirate of Dubai, United Arab Emirates
… UV-B. If human levels of Vit D were used as the reference values, then 30% (N=7) of dhub in MUG in 2015 would be considered deficient (<25 nmol/L) and the remaining 70% (N=17) would be insufficient (<75 nmol/L ) and only 40% (N=19) of dhub from WAS would be considered to have a sufficient level. …
