Patients and Methods
This study will include 90 dialysis patients. Patients over age 20 years old and undergoing HD for at least 6 months will be enrolled. Patients with inflammatory diseases, cancer, AIDS, autoimmune disease, use of a central catheter for hemodialysis
The term "mucositis" was introduced to describe inflammation of the oral mucosa induced by radiotherapy, chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation. At present, oral mucositis is considered to be the most serious non-hematological complication of cancer treatment.
Numerous predisposing factors
Investigators will utilize a parallel intervention of lentil versus macronutrient-matched (not including fiber) control treatment for 12 weeks in OW/OB adults with demonstrated risk for T2D and CVD. Experimental diets will be provided to participants in the form of pre-made midday meals to exploit
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.
Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is the major component of the Mediterranean diet. More than 200 different chemical compounds have been detected in olive oil, including fatty acids, sterols, carotenoids, terpenoids, flavonoids, tocopherols and olive polyphenols. Virgin olive oil contains a variety of
Fibrosis is a common and irreversible adverse effect of radiotherapy. Radiotherapy is used with curative intent in most individuals (~70%) with head and neck cancer (HNC), often in combination with surgery and/or chemotherapy. It is estimated that up to 60% of these individuals will experience
Older adults are at increased risk of various chronic diseases where inadequate levels of vitamins and minerals may play a significant role, including cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, liver disease, and cancer. Older adults are increasingly more susceptible to vitamin and mineral
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death in Europe. The geographical variation of incidence demonstrates how environmental factors, chiefly dietary habits, play a major role in this disease. Convincing evidence suggests that risk of CRC is increased by red meat and
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
The combination of PTX and vit E appears as the standard treatment of radiation induced fibrosis. Synergism between PTX and Vit E is likely, as treatment with each drug alone is ineffective. This combination was also positively evaluated in the treatment of osteoradionecrosis, radiation-induced
Allergic asthma (AA) is the most commonly encountered respiratory disease in children and adults in the United States and is a leading cause of morbidity worldwide. Among the most disruptive expressions of disease in AA is acute asthma exacerbation. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) lists ambient
Controlled clinical trial composed of children of adolescents aged 1 to 19 years with refractory epilepsy drug polytherapy (antiepileptic drugs). Children of both sexes are being included. The control group receive the diet classical ketogenic while the case group receive the ketogenic diet modified
Mandibular osteoradionecrosis which occurs after the use of radiation therapy for the treatment of head and neck cancer remains being the most problematic and irreversible complication despite its low incidence with no medical treatment to limit or reduce symptoms.
