However, only the presence of myalgia and erysipelas like erythema were found to be independent risk factors for subclinical inflammation (OR 9.8 and 5.9, respectively). Children with FMF who have myalgia and erysipelas like erythema during the attacks are particularly at risk of ongoing inflammation...
Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the common diseases whose pathogenesis includes genetic factors. To reveal genetic backgrounds of this clinically heterogeneous disorder, we started our case-control association study by examining large-scale gene-based single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sets for ap...
inflammationrisk factorsInflammatory biomarkers are reported as risk factors for atrial fibrillation (AF), but their impact is uncertain. We investigated the associations between inflammatory biomarkers and future AF in a large general cohort. Available markers were white blood cells (WBCs) with ...
Additional risk factors presumably relevant for precipitating disease in carriers ofDUOX2mutations are distinct for CH and IBD. For CH, the function of theDUOX1isoenzyme is likely critical for the potential to compensate partialDUOX2defects25and expressivity of the defects is presumably modulated by ...
This study aimed to identify independent risk factors for acute hospital-acquired symptomatic pulmonary embolism (HA-SPE) by comparing the clinical data of HA-SPE and acute nonhospital-acquired symptomatic pulmonary embolism (NHA-SPE). A total of 292 patients were included in the analysis and divid...
The following study was undertaken to determine a possible inter-relationship between inflammation and dyslipidaemia, which are important risk factors for CAD in the atherosclerosis-prone North Indian male population. The study groups comprised 150 clinically assessed North Indian male patients with acute ...
(34–35) Oxidative stress and inflammation are prevalent characteristics observed in both T2D and PAD individually. While these factors were not directly measured in the present study, their presence may have contributed to the high observed crude rates of all-cause and ASCVD mortality among study ...
We examined these and other risk factors in the context of a new hypothesis: that inflammation may play a role in ovarian cancer risk. Ovulation entails ovarian epithelial inflammation; talc, endometriosis, cysts, and hyperthyroidism may be associated with inflammatory responses of the ovarian ...
Inflammation in the brain could contribute to or promote neuronal loss2 and also peripheral inflammation may contribute to the pathogenesis of dementia.3,4 Also, there is evidence for a prominent role of vascular disease and vascular factors in the development of dementia, both vascular dementia ...
It is also possible that a common final pathway that emerges as inflammation is present in the pathogenesis of MI, and due to these characteristics, identification of genetic risk factors of this clinically heterogeneous dis- order was relatively easy. Needless to say, this is a speculation and ...
