Keshan disease

02/01/2009 - "The present study supports the hypothesis that mycotoxin toxicosis is a probable etiological factor of Keshan disease, the mitochondrial cardiomyopathy."
01/01/2002 - "It has been confirmed by clinical and pathological studies that Keshan disease is an independent endemic myocardial disease caused by biological and geological factors. "
08/01/1981 - "[Congestive (dilated type) cardiomyopathy and chronic Keshan disease (a roentgeno-pathological corrective study) (author's transl)]."
07/01/2015 - "In the 1930s the Se deficiency associated cardiomyopathy named Keshan Disease (KD) was described for the first time in China. "
08/01/2014 - "The etiology of Keshan disease (KD), an endemic myocardiopathy in regions of China, is largely unknown. "

04/01/2009 - "Circulating adhesion molecules in patients with Keshan disease and their relationship with Coxsackie B virus infection."
11/15/2004 - "Coxsackievirus B3 infection and its mutation in Keshan disease."
08/01/2002 - "So, the infection of enter viruses maybe involves in the cause and development of latent-chronic keshan disease, and at least we conclude that the mutation of CVB3 is not the only cause of KD."
08/01/2002 - "[Coxsackievirus B3 infection and Keshan disease]."
01/01/2002 - "This fact supposed that the cause of Keshan disease was related to a virus infection. "

09/01/2013 - "In this study, differentially expressed genes in peripheral blood from patients with Kashin-Beck disease and Keshan disease were compared to further investigate the etiology and pathogenesis of both diseases, which occur in a common endemic area of China. "
09/01/2013 - "Thus, these shared differentially expressed genes may contribute to the distinct organ lesions, caused by common environmental risk factors of Kashin-Beck disease and Keshan disease."
09/01/2013 - "Sixteen genes differentially expressed in both Kashin-Beck disease and Keshan disease (versus controls) were identified, and comprised nine genes showing synchronous and seven asynchronous expression. "
09/01/2013 - "Twenty Kashin-Beck disease patients and 12 healthy controls, and 16 Keshan disease patients and 16 healthy controls, were grouped into four pairs. "
04/01/2011 - "Selenium toxicity and links between deficiency and Keshan disease and Kashin-Beck disease are described. "

12/01/2006 - "Keshan disease is not a genetic disease, but is closely related to the malnutrition (especially microelement Se deficiency). "
05/01/2002 - "MMN lesions are observed in various pathologic conditions including cystic fibrosis of the pancreas, pancreatic lipomatous hypoplasia/atrophy, malnutrition due to extensive intestinal resection with subsequent total parenteral feeding, and in Keshan disease. "
05/01/2003 - "The discovery that the juvenile cardiomyopathy known as Keshan disease likely has a dual etiology that involves both a nutritional deficiency of the essential trace mineral selenium (Se) as well as an infection with an enterovirus provided the impetus for additional studies of relationships between nutrition and viral infection. "
01/01/1997 - "Keshan disease may be the result of several interacting causes including a dominant nutritional deficiency (selenium), other nutritional factors (vitamin E, polyunsaturated fatty acids), and an infectious agent (virus)."

01/01/2012 - "This is a review article telling a 50-years old story about the studies on selenium deficiency and Keshan disease in China, an endemic heart disease with high case-fatality, as an example of translational research. "
01/01/2012 - "An original discovery: selenium deficiency and Keshan disease (an endemic heart disease)."
12/01/1995 - "Keshan Disease (KSD) is an endemic heart disease and moniliformin (MF) has been suggested as one of the etiological factors. "
07/01/1994 - "Various measures of antioxidant status were investigated in relation to mortality from cardiovascular disease (CVD: coronary heart disease, hypertensive heart disease, and stroke) and Keshan disease. "
