Journal ArticleDOI

DNA repair genetic polymorphisms and risk of colorectal cancer in the Czech Republic.

TL;DR: Considering the subtle effect of the DNA repair polymorphisms on the risk of colorectal cancer, exploration of gene-gene and gene-environmental interactions with a large sample size with sufficient statistical power are recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bile acid malabsorption in inflammatory bowel disease: assessment by serum markers.

TL;DR: The most severe BAM occurs in CD patients after resection of the distal ileum, but BAM can occur in surgically untreated CD patients, regardless of disease localization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between exposure-relevant polymorphisms in CYP1B1, EPHX1, NQO1, GSTM1, GSTP1 and GSTT1 and risk of colorectal cancer in a Czech population.

TL;DR: Genetic polymorphisms in glutathione S-transferase Pi-1, NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1, epoxide hydrolase 1 and deduced epoxid hydrol enzyme 1 activity did not modify the risk of colorectal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromosomal damage among medical staff occupationally exposed to volatile anesthetics, antineoplastic drugs, and formaldehyde

TL;DR: The findings indicate that the presence of genotoxic compounds in operating rooms, oncological units, and pathological departments results in a significant increase of chromosomal damage (impair of chromosome integrity) among medical workers employed in these facilities.
