Efficacy of prone position in acute respiratory distress syndrome patients: A pathophysiology-based review

TL;DR: Pathophysiology-based review and recent clinical evidence strongly support the use of prone positioning in the early management of severe ARDS systematically and not as a rescue maneuver or a last-ditch effort.
Journal Article

Awareness, treatment and control of the metabolic syndrome and its components: a multicentre Greek study.

TL;DR: The prevalence of MetS is high in Greece but is not recognised among the general population, and treatment and control ofMetS and component conditions are extremely low, which calls for urgent education of the public and the medical community.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patients with early rheumatoid arthritis exhibit elevated autoantibody titers against mildly oxidized low-density lipoprotein and exhibit decreased activity of the lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2.

TL;DR: Elevated autoantibody titers against oxLDL at the end of the decomposition phase of oxidation and low plasma Lp-PLA2 activity are feature characteristics of patients with ERA, suggesting an important role of these parameters in the pathophysiology of ERA as well as in the accelerated atherosclerosis observed in these patients.
