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

1. Aim 1. Objectives Primary objective: The aim of the project is to study the pharmacokinetics of therapeutic doses of paracetamol with specific emphasis on the contributions of the metabolites (glucuronide, sulphate, cysteine and mercapturate), in patients with spinal muscular atrophy(SMA),

The primary objective of this pilot study is to investigate if an early treatment of intraoperative hypotension driven by an Edwards Lifesciences new technology (Hypotension Probability Index - HPI software) and integrated hemodynamic variables is able to determine a modification of the blood levels

Paracetamol (acetaminophen, APAP) is a ubiquitous painkiller and antipyretic available worldwide in numerous over-the-counter and prescription medications. At supra-therapeutic doses, APAP is a well described hepatotoxic agent and a significant public health concern since 30'000 hospitalizations are

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

TB and AIDS are also diseases that occur with a chronic inflammatory stimulus, with constant formation of excessive free radicals, leading to cellular and systemic oxidative stress. The effects of NAC in both populations are studied. A study demonstrated that HIV-positive individuals have low levels

Background Childhood obesity causes a wide range of severe complications, increasing the risk of premature morbidity and mortality and raising public-health concerns. In addition, obese children are more prone to become obese adults, with higher risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). A cluster of

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a central nervous system (CNS) autoimmune disorder characterized by chronic inflammation, axonal demyelination, and neuronal degeneration. The complex pathophysiology of MS is mediated by autoreactive T cells that ultimately invade and attack the CNS by traversing the
