In Group I, an associated medical history of hypertension was noted in 4 patients (Patients 1, 3, 6 and 10), hyperlipidemia in 2 (Patients 1 and 10), and diabetes mellitus in 1 (Patient 1). In Group II, 2 patients (Patients 13 and 16) had a history of febrile convulsion and 6 ...
It is known that High concentration of glucose in the blood is harmful. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by hyperglycemia promotes Cyto-C release to trigger caspase-dependent apoptosis. Moreover, hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia increased dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) acetylat...
Ozone in the troposphere is created in the presence of solar radiation, due to the reaction of nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds. Growing evidence have shown that high concentration of ozone exposure could threaten people’s health and might be linked to lower life expectancy [22,32,...
Furthermore, the aGAPSS score, smoking status, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, age over 50 years old, diagnosis APS at baseline, and SLEDAI-2K score at recruitment remained significant predictors of ASCVD (Fig. 3). Fig. 3 The effect of aPLs profile, traditional cardiovascular disease risk factors...
Propensity score-matched analysis was performed to eliminate the effects of clini- cal confounding factors, which were calculated using logistic regression analysis of 10 clinical parameters (i.e., age, gender, smoking status, alcohol consumption, hyper- tension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, stroke, ...
Likewise, medical conditions were sub-categorized into the following: (1) bone health, including vitamin D deficiency; (2) cardiovascular health including hypercholesterolemia/hyperlipidemia; and (3) other health conditions. The primary thrust of this exploratory analysis was to characterize DS use ...
