Unicentric prospective case control study comparing organochlorine levels including patients diagnosed with a pancreatic adenocarcinoma undergoing a surgery allowing to collect an adipose tissue sample (10g).
Controls are adults with no pancreatic cancer (excluded by a 6 months old computed
There has been a surge in incidence of the metabolic syndrome; a cluster of conditions which increase the risk of, type 2 diabetes (T2D) (90% of diabetes cases), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cardiovascular disease (including ischaemic heart disease
The modern lifestyle has led to the development and propagation of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) pandemics. Obesity is associated with increased morbidity and mortality due to its associated diseases such as T2DM; certain cancers; cardiovascular diseases including hypertension, coronary artery
Disease Burden Pain. The pattern of the pain (constant versus episodic), its frequency, duration, visits to the emergency room or hospitalizations for pain, impact of pain on quality of life will be recorded in questionnaires. The intensity of the pain will be measured at enrollment, during an
Gall bladder status among children with chronic haemolytic anemia attending to Assuit University Children Hospital Hemolysis is defined as the premature destruction of red blood cells (RBCs) (a shortened RBC life span). Anemia results when the rate of destruction exceeds the capacity of the marrow
Insulin resistance (IR) represents a common pathophysiological mechanism of type 2 diabetes and arterial hypertension, both associated with the appearance and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
Recently, it has been reported that a value of one-hour (1-h) post-load plasma glucose ≥155
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a sudden inflammation of the pancreas. However, one-fifth of patients may develop severe complications with a mortality between 10%-20% It remains a difficulty to find an effective method for prediction of severity of AP at early stage.
