Since last December 2019, a syndrome of severe pneumonia associated with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. It is highly contagious and rapidly spread to many other parts of China and almost all countries all over the world, representing one of the most
Cohort characteristics
The patients' characteristics were collected from medicals records: age, gender, smoking status (absent, current or weaned), WHO performance index, neoplastic characteristics (tumor histology, history of brain metastasis, prior radiotherapy treatment, prior therapy lines
Background and Rationale:
T cells play a critical role in antiviral immunity, their level was dramatically reduced in COVID-19 patients. There is a negative correlation between T cell numbers and cytokines serum level in COVID-19 patients. In those patients, there is up-regulation of inflammatory
The World Health Organization (W.H.O). defines oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) as "A histologically proven lesion that is associated with a significantly increased risk of malignant transformation."Oral leukoplakia is the most commonly occurring oral potentially malignant disorder.
1. Patients The study included 30 patients with chronic kidney failure on dialysis treatment at the Center for Nephrology and Dialysis of the Clinical Center Kragujevac. Inclusion criteria were: regular dialysis treatment for more than 3 months, 3 times a week and hemoglobin values lower than 110g /
2.1 Study design The primary outcome of the study was cholesterolemia, as assessed by total cholesterol levels, triglycerides or low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and high-density lipoproteins (HDL). The secondary outcomes included blood glucose, Body Mass Index (BMI) and oxidative stress biomarkers.

Study Design and Population
Study Design We shall enroll 30 healthy volunteers as the control group. 180 sex- and age-matched hemodialysis patients will be enrolled in this study. To be included in the study, patients have to be at least 20-years-old and on outpatient hemodialysis (HD) for at least
Non-invasive and controllable suppression of regional brain activity may open new avenues for the treatment and management of epilepsy. There is good evidence that direct stimulation of epileptogenic sources can powerfully suppress seizure rates, but so far minimally invasive attempts have shown
RESEARCH PROJECT OBJECTIVES The aim of the presented scientific project is to establish the factors, with special reference to the type of surgical technique, tissue accumulation of advanced glycation end products, and collagen content in transversalis fascia, associated with development of
Athlete's body, by its high oxygen demand and increased aerobic metabolism, is exposed to the formation and oxidizing action of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Imbalance between the mechanisms of ROS generation and antioxidative defense of the body can lead to oxidative stress expressed by elevated
Eligibility and type of the study: This prospective randomized placebo-controlled double-blind study will be conducted after approval from the Institutional Ethics Committee and obtaining written informed consent from patients scheduled for elective adult sinuscopic procedures under general
Study Design and Population
Patient Population
To be included in the study, patients have to be at least 20-years-old and on outpatient hemodialysis (HD) for at least 3 months. Patients are excluded if they had an acute infection or malignancy. A total of 300 long-term HD patients are randomly
Pomegranate has anti-oxidative capacity. It might reduce symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, Drug-induced hepatitis, and might prevent deterioration of cardiovascular diseases and cancer progression. But, the beneficial effects of pomegranate on hearing impairment was still unclear.
This study aimed to
The oxidative stress reflects an imbalance between the systemic manifestation of reactive oxygen species and a biological system's ability to readily detoxify the reactive intermediates or to repair the resulting damage.
Cells continuously produce free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) as
