    Fracture risk prediction using FRAX in patients following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

    We aimed to study the utility of the FRAX tool in predicting fractures in patient’s receiving a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Our results indicate that the FRAX tool has modest fracture predi...

    A selective somatostatin type-2 receptor agonist inhibits neointimal thickening and enhances endothelial cell growth and morphology following aortic balloon injury in the rabbit

    Somatostatin analogs have been shown to inhibit vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation and attenuate neointimal thickening following experimental balloon catheter injury. In this study, the effects o...

    Pharmacology of GRF and Somatostatin: Positive and Negative Control of GH Release

    The physiological mechanism(s) controlling the release of growth hormone (GH) from the adenohypophysis is unique in having two hormones, growth hormone releasing factor (GRF) (1, 2) and somatostatin (SRIF) (3), t...

    Calcaneal and pelvic fractures: Diagnostic evaluation by three-dimensional computed tomography scans

    A major application of three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) is in the imaging of the skeleton. 3D CT has a potentially important role in determining the presence, type, and extent of fractures, espe...
