We hypothesize that in CF-LVAD recipients the levels of inflammatory markers are higher than both healthy controls and HF patients. The aim of our study was to compare the levels of inflammation in CF-LVAD recipients to those of healthy controls (HCs) and HF patients who were candidates for ...
Hyperglycemia was positively correlated with higher inflammation levels and more severe illness, and it is a risk factor for the increased severity of COVID-19. The initial measurement of plasma glucose levels after hospitalization may help identify a subset of patients who are predisposed to a ...
Hyper- plasia adipocytes will produce numerous mediators, includ- ing adipokines, associated with adipose tissue (AT) inflammation, as obesity can induce the release of inflam- matory cytokines.1 Chronic inflammation can cause obesity2 and contributes to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and ...
The differences in inflammatory markers in prediabetic and T2D subjects were not statistically significant. Prediabetes was associated with low-grade inflammation with increased inflammatory cytokine levels, while the levels in prediabetic subjects were comparable to those in T2D subjects. The associations...

In fact, pro-inflamma- tory markers, such as elevated levels of IL-6 or hs-CRP, can serve as early indicators of systemic inflammation, a common precursor to kidney damage in PLWH [17, 18]. Monitoring these markers can provide valuable tool into the progression of kidney disease, enabling...
Ten of 104 patients with UC had high levels of serum IgG4; nine of these 10 patients (90%) not only had extensive lesions (E3) but also presented with moderate-to-severe inflammation, suggesting that this subset of patients with UC was more likely to have extensive and severe lesions (Ta...
6k–n). Moreover, NUC supplementation reduced the levels of secreted TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 proteins in the serum of HFD-fed rats (Fig. 6h–j). These results indicate that NUC supplementation reduces inflammation markers in obese rats. Potential relations between disease biomarkers and gut...
Consistent with the development of low-grade intestinal inflammation, mice exposed to pre-IBD risk factors exhibited a reduced colon length (Figures 3A and S4C) and a heightened expression of inflammatory markers in the colonic mucosa (Figures 3B–3E and S4D) and lower numbers of Alcian blue-po...
Type 2 diabetes is associated with obesity, ectopic lipid accumulation and low-grade inflammation. A dysfunctional gut microbiota has been suggested to participate in the pathogenesis of the disease. Green tea is rich in polyphenols and has previously be
