Sub-clinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is a form of thyroid dysfunction in which the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level is high, while serum total/free thyroxine (T4/fT4) is within the normal reference range . SCH is mostly detected accidentally as most of the patients manifest few or no signs of
Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of more intensive BP lowering target (<120 mmHg) compared to higher BP management target (140-180mmHg) on functional outcome in patients with successful recanalization post-MT for AIS due to large vessel occlusion (LVO).
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Age ≥18
Gout is the most prevalent inflammatory rheumatological disease among young men, affecting about 4% of the general population. Caused by the deposit of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals which form because of high urate concentrations in serum. Currently, there is no universal definition for

Tryptophan (TRP), an essential aminoacid, is metabolized in the serotonin (5-HT) or in the kynurenine (KYN) pathway. Serotonin is catabolized to 5-HIAA (5-hydroxyindole amino acid) by monoamine oxidase A (MAOA). The TRP to KYN transformation is regulated by indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO).
The
Photobiomodulation (PBM), also called low-level light therapy (LLLT), uses optical power densities less than 100 mW/cm², and usually in the red (600-700 nm) or near infrared (NIR) 780-1000 nm wavelength range. Different light sources (coherent lasers or non-coherent LEDs) used for PBM have been
