BACKGROUND
The effects of natural environmental factors upon health, documented in Minnesota, support the proposition of Bratislava's champions of the cosmos and of the biological week, gauged via circaseptan rhythms by the late Ladislav Dérer, whose "macro-rhythm" lasted "most frequently about 6
BACKGROUND
Pharmacy refill adherence assesses the medication-filling behaviors, whereas self-report adherence assesses the medication-taking behaviors. We contrasted the association of pharmacy refill and self-reported antihypertensive medication adherence with blood pressure (BP) control and
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to examine the prognostic value of midregional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP) in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND
The rapid and reliable estimation of prognosis in acute ischemic stroke is pivotal to optimize clinical care.
Hypertension is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease, but few epidemiological studies have examined simultaneously the effect of baseline blood pressure on the development of stroke, acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). In 1983, a large, community-based
BACKGROUND
Spasticity is a common disabling symptom of several neurological conditions including stroke. Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injection represents the gold standard therapy for focal spasticity. Post-stroke management of patients receiving BTX-A therapy has been variously investigated, but
BACKGROUND
During the past decades, many studies were published considering cosmo-terrestrial influences on different sites of human homeostasis. The aim of this study was to summarize some of those studies in the field of cardiovascular medicine, concentrating on environmental physical
The interaction between the gravitational field, the position of the body, and the functional characteristics of the blood vessels determines the distribution of intravascular volume. In turn, this distribution determines cardiac pump function. One of the most profound circulatory changes that
BACKGROUND
The natural history of terminal oncologic disease is death from cardiopulmonary arrest. The goal of this study was to determine whether the temporal distribution of death among oncology patients is related to levels of environmental physical activity-solar, geomagnetic, and cosmic rays
Self-experimentation concerns not only scientists, but also each individual for the sake of his/her chronobiologic health and science literacy, eventually to be acquired in primary and secondary education. Public education ensures that everybody who knows how to read or write can dispense with the
"Chronoastrobiology: are we at the threshold of a new science? Is there a critical mass for scientific research?" A simple photograph of the planet earth from outer space was one of the greatest contributions of space exploration. It drove home in a glance that human survival depends upon the wobbly
