Body mass indexObesityHigh body mass index constitutes a risk for nephrolithiasis in the context of metabolic syndrome. The majority of these renal stones are either composed of Urate or Calcium Oxalate. We aimed to evaluate the ratios of urinary Calcium and Uric Acid to urinary Creatinine as an...
Higher baseline SUA was marginally associated with an increased risk of having high carotid–femoral PWV (P = 0.05). The association of SUA with BP increase was body mass index dependent (the increase in BP being greater in leaner subjects; interactionp < 0.05), and the association of SUA ...
However, no significant age-related differences were found in the rate of diabetes mellitus among patients with NICE, contrary to reports of high diabetesrate in elderly stroke patients [29]. This suggests a potential lack of association between diabetes and aging in patients with NICE, warranting...
In addition, the levels of creatinine and uric acid were assessed (Bartles and Bohmer 1972; Prætorius and Poulsen 1953). Oxidative stress/antioxidant parameters At 5th dpc, parts of the trachea, lung, proventriculus, and intestine tissues were collected, washed three times using cold NaCl ...
Obesity, gender, and in men, prior knee injuries are associated with incident symptomatic knee OA (SxKOA) in a high risk cohort: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study (MOST). ACR Annual Scientific Meeting 2006. abstract: presentation number: 116. Andriacchi TP, Mundermann A . The role of ...
The demographic and clinical characteristics of studied population stratified by BMI are summarized in Table 1. The prevalence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors (p < 0.001), serum uric acid (SUA, p = 0.001), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP, p < 0.001) increased disprop...
Metabolic syndrome (MS) criteria were determined using a modified version of the National Cholesterol Education Program Expert Panel on Detection, Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (Adult Treatment Panel III)10 as follows: (1) medication for HMW adiponectin in hemodialysis patients N ...
In fact, temperature as well as concentrations of uric and lactic acid have been shown to affect semen pH [41]. Semen also contains several elements that surround sperm and ensure viability by controlling osmolality and participating in enzymatic activity [47]. Research suggests that the ...
the prevention and treatment of gastrointestinal, respiratory, cancer, and metabolic disorders will be elucidated. In addition, we will highlight the importance of the development of new-generation probiotics to cater the needs of the current market....
Graphene-based aerogels (GA) have a high potential in the biomedical engineering field due to high mechanical strength, biocompatibility, high porosity, and adsorption capacity. Thanks to this, they can be used as scaffolds in bone tissue engineering, wound healing, drug delivery and nerve tissue ...
