Hyperactivity persists in male and female adults with ADHD and remains a highly discriminative feature of the disorder: a case-control study
(BioMed Central, 2012)Background: Symptoms of hyperactivity are believed to fade with age leaving ADHD adults mostly inattentive and impulsive. Our aim was to test this assertion using objective measures of hyperactivity, impulsivity and ... -
Hypercalcemia Associated with a Malignant Brenner Tumor Arising from a Mature Cystic Teratoma
(S. Karger AG, 2012)A 60-year-old woman presented with abdominal pain and weight loss and was found to have serum calcium of 15.0 mg/dl. Serum parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) returned elevated. Imaging suggested bilateral mature ... -
Hypercalcemia Associated with Isolated Bone Marrow Sarcoidosis in a Patient with Underlying Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance: Case Report and Review of Literature
(BioMed Central, 2016)Bone marrow sarcoidosis is extremely rare. The association between sarcoidosis and lymphoproliferative disorders has been previously speculated, although the diagnosis of sarcoidosis often precedes any hematological ... -
Hypercytotoxicity and Rapid Loss of NKp44+ Innate Lymphoid Cells during Acute SIV Infection
(Public Library of Science, 2014)HIV/SIV infections break down the integrity of the gastrointestinal mucosa and lead to chronic immune activation and associated disease progression. Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), distinguishable by high expression of NKp44 ... -
Hyperdynamic left ventricular ejection fraction in the intensive care unit
(BioMed Central, 2015)Introduction: Limited information exists on the etiology, prevalence, and significance of hyperdynamic left ventricular ejection fraction (HDLVEF) in the intensive care unit (ICU). Our aim in the present study was to compare ... -
Hyperexpansion of RNA Bacteriophage Diversity
(Public Library of Science, 2016)Bacteriophage modulation of microbial populations impacts critical processes in ocean, soil, and animal ecosystems. However, the role of bacteriophages with RNA genomes (RNA bacteriophages) in these processes is poorly ... -
Hypergammaglobulinemia in the pediatric population as a marker for underlying autoimmune disease: a retrospective cohort study
(BioMed Central, 2013)Background: The significance of hypergammaglobulinemia as a marker of immune activation is unknown, as a differential diagnosis for hypergammaglobulinemia in children has not been adequately established. The goal of this ... -
Hyperinfectivity of Human-Passaged Vibrio cholerae Can Be Modeled by Growth in the Infant Mouse
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005)It has previously been shown that passage of Vibrio cholerae through the human intestine imparts a transient hyperinfectious phenotype that may contribute to the epidemic spread of cholera. The mechanism underlying this ... -
Hyperintense Cortical Signal on Magnetic Resonance Imaging Reflects Focal Leukocortical Encephalitis and Seizure Risk in Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy
(Wiley, 2014-05)Objective To determine the frequency of hyperintense cortical signal (HCS) on T1-weighted pre-contrast MRI in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) patients, its association with seizure risk and immune ... -
Hyperlipidemia and Atherosclerotic Lesion Development in LDL Receptor Deficient Mice Fed Defined Semipurified Diets With and Without Cholate
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 1999)Past studies of atherosclerosis in mice have used chow-based diets supplemented with cholesterol, lipid, and sodium cholate to overcome species resistance to lesion formation. Similar diets have been routinely used in ... -

Hypermaintenance and hypofunction of aged spermatogonia: insight from age-related increase of Plzf expression
(Impact Journals LLC, 2015)Like stem cells in other tissues, spermatogonia, including spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) at the foundation of differentiation hierarchy, undergo age-related decline in function. The promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger ... -
Hypermutable Non-Synonymous Sites are Under Stronger Negative Selection
(Public Library of Science, 2008)Mutation rate varies greatly between nucleotide sites of the human genome and depends both on the global genomic location and the local sequence context of a site. In particular, CpG context elevates the mutation rate by ... -
Hypersensitivity Reaction as a Harbinger of Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
(Korean Dermatological Association; The Korean Society for Investigative Dermatology, 2015)Cutaneous paraneoplastic syndromes comprise a broad spectrum of cutaneous reactions to an underlying malignancy. These dermatoses are not the result of metastatic spread to the skin, but rather a reaction to the presence ... -
Hypersusceptibility of cystic fibrosis mice to chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa oropharyngeal colonization and lung infection
(National Academy of Sciences, 2003)No transgenic cystic fibrosis (CF) mouse model developed to date mimics the major clinical phenotype found in humans with CF, chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infection. in a transgenic CF transmembrane conductance ... -
Hypertension and Cerebral Vasoreactivity
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2010-11)Hypertension is associated with microvascular and macrovascular brain injury but its direct influence on the cerebral circulation is not fully clear. Our objective was to investigate the association of hypertension with ... -
Hypertension education and adherence in South Africa: a cost-effectiveness analysis of community health workers
(BioMed Central, 2014)Background: To determine whether training community health workers (CHWs) about hypertension in order to improve adherence to medications is a cost-effective intervention among community members in South Africa. Methods: ... -
