Economic evaluation of different screening alternatives for patients with clinically suspected acute deep vein thrombosis
(Croatian Soc Medical Biochemists, Zagreb, 2013)
Introduction: We examined the cost-effectiveness of the three different D-dimer measurements in the screening of DVT in models with and without calculation of pre-test probability (PTP) score. Moreover, we calculated the ...
Cost-effectiveness analysis of acute kidney injury biomarkers in pediatric cardiac surgery
(Croatian Soc Medical Biochemists, Zagreb, 2015)
Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is significant problem in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) who undergo cardiac surgery. The economic impact of a biomarker-based diagnostic strategy for AKI in pediatric ...
Optimizing moving average control procedures for small-volume laboratories: can it be done?
(Croatian Society of Medical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 2019)
Introduction: Moving average (MA) means calculating the average value from a set of patient results and further using that value for analytical quality
control purposes. The aim of this study was to examine whether the ...
Is an integrative laboratory algorithm more effective in detecting alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency in patients with premature chronic obstructive pulmonary disease than AAT concentration based screening approach?
(Croatian Soc Medical Biochemists, Zagreb, 2014)
Introduction: Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), genetic risk factor for premature chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), often remains undetected. The aim of our study was to analyse the effectiveness of an ...
Circulating resistin protein and mRNA concentrations and clinical severity of coronary artery disease
(Croatian Soc Medical Biochemistry & Laboratory Medicine, Zagreb, 2015)
Introduction: Previous studies have implicated a strong link between circulating plasma resistin and coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences in peripheral blood mononuclear cells ...
Oxidative status parameters in children with urinary tract infection
(Croatian Soc Medical Biochemists, Zagreb, 2014)
Introduction: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infectious diseases in children. The aim of this study was to determine the total prooxidant and antioxidant capacity of children with UTI, ...
Detection of acute kidney injury in premature asphyxiated neonates by serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (sNGAL) - sensitivity and specificity of a potential new biomarker
(Croatian Soc Medical Biochemistry & Laboratory Medicine, Zagreb, 2015)
Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). In recent years, every effort is made for early detection of AKI. Our hypothesis was that serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated ...
