DETERMINANTS OF PREVENTIVE BEHAVIOR REGARDING CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES AND RISK FACTORS IN PATIENTS WITH ESSENTIAL HYPERTENSION AND CHRONIC ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE

Aim.To analyze potential determinants of preventive behavior (PB) in patients with essential hypertension (HT) and chronic ischemic heart disease (CIHD), and to establish their significance and hierarchy.Material and methods.Patients with HT (n=285) and CIHD (n=223) were studied.Questioning of all patients was performed to assess the characteristic

Ionizing Radiation-Induced Extracellular Vesicle Release Promotes AKT-Associated Survival Response in SH-SY5Y Neuroblastoma Cells

Radiation therapy is one of the most effective methods of tumor eradication; however, in some forms of neuroblastoma, radiation can increase the risk of secondary neoplasms, due to the ability of irradiated cells to transmit pro-survival signals to non-irradiated cells through vesicle secretion.The aims of this study were to characterize the vesicl
