Biologic refers to products derived from living organisms, whereas biological pertains to all aspects of living organisms and their processes.
OA isn’t an autoimmune disease. You get it because the cartilage (spongy tissue) between your joints breaks down -- often due to daily wear and tear. As a result, the bones on either side of the cartilage start to change and ache. It's much more common thanrheumatoid arthritis. Osteoa...
Patients were divided by drug and included their sex, age at onset, anti-cyclic citrullinated polypeptide antibodies (ACPA) titer, length of RA history at onset, Sharp/van der Heijde score (SHS) at onset, Nave/Not Naive for biologic DMARDs or JAK-i, 28-joints disease activity score (DAS...
Discuss the interrelationship and interaction between the research sponsor (e.g., drug, biologic and device manufacturers), the cli The dietary reference intake for folic acid for an adult female or adult male is 400 micrograms/day, but for...
an increased risk for death or whether artesunate-amodiaquine in some way decreased the risk for death. They also note that when they limited their analysis to just individuals who had a positive malaria test, the association between risk for death and malaria treatment was no longer significant....
By Ingenuity Pathways Analysis, a plausible biologic network underlying susceptibility to leprosy was provided for depicting the functional relationship between some susceptibility genes identified from GWAS of leprosy [25]. Using the initial GWAS data with 706 cases and 514 controls, we attempted to de...
Wondering what the difference is between STIs (sexually transmitted infections) and STDs (sexually transmitted diseases)? The STI Project is here to give you the low-down! STI and STD are often used interchangeably. More recently, the term STI has risen in popularity over STD in public health...
As DILI is one of the most common drug-induced side effects in clinical situations, the research of gender-dependent discrepancy of DILI is of great interests to clinical doctors and academic scientists. Cellular GSH, a ubiquitously distributed redox-active reducing sulfhydryl (–SH) tripeptide, is...
Figure 2. Schematic illustration of the MTD principle, namely the biological activity is proportional with the binding degree between the ligands (L1, L2) and the receptor R: in (a) as perfect matching and in (b) as the misfit relating the total volume V’+V’’. Basically...
The involved skin area was compared between the PSA and PSO groups using the chi-square test of independence. The same was used to compare the severity between the two groups and the association between gender and the involved skin area. Disease severity was examined using ordinal logistic regres...
