anti inflammatory/obesity

The reason for the involvement of overweight in the severity of viral respiratory pathologies, particularly during influenza and coronavirus infections, has been the subject of numerous studies which have made it possible to objectify the importance of viral load (at least in mice), particularly in

Objective: To use sulodexide in patients that have early onset of COVID-19 symptoms to mitigate the progression of the disease process that can allow them to recover at home, and limit the need for hospital care and the more severe manifestation which includes fulminant respiratory failure, acute

A. Early detection of systemic relapses in breast cancer. WP 1. Analysis of primary tumor. Analysis of primary tumor and metastases (Pathology group). In this work package both DNA and RNA from the primary tumors of 125 high-risk (Luminal-B) patients will be analyzed by next-generation sequencing

PURPOSE: To determine the effectiveness of low level laser therapy on insulin resistance and inflammatory biomarkers in obese postmenopausal breast cancer risk women BACKGROUND: The American Obesity Association (2002, 2003) defines obesity as 'a complex, multifactorial chronic disease involving

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by SARS-COV2, represents a highly transmissible and potentially fatal disease that is of great global public health concern at this moment. The pandemic situation in Bangladesh is also evolving rapidly with positive cases and deaths increasing each day.

SARS-CoV-2, a plus-sense single-stranded RNA virus, is the etiologic agent of COVID-19. After an incubation period, which typically lasts for 5-6 days, COVID-19 patients present with a mild illness that lasts for a few days. Common symptoms are reminiscent of the flu, and include fever, dry cough

INTRODUCTION Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by progressive and hardly reversible obstruction of the airways, which basically affects the small airways (chronic obstructive bronchiolitis), variably associated with destruction of the pulmonary parenchyma (emphysema). 10%

Obesity-related inflammation is central to the development of type 2 diabetes and potentiated by advancing age, inactive behavior and sedentary lifestyle. Metabolism and immunity are entangled in their respective effects: the pathways of inflammation are involved in metabolism and the metabolic

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative condition that causes pain, impaired function and affects daily activities. In knee osteoarthritis, there is destruction of cartilage and subchondral bone, with the consequent narrowing of articular space. Besides the biomechanical factors, trauma and obesity; it is

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disorder caused by wear and tear on the joint over time; as a result, the protective cartilage of the bone in the joint gradually wears down. The lifetime risk of developing OA in the knee, with symptoms such as pain, aching, and stiffness, is 40% in men and 47% in

In-patients 1. Determine the frequency of low serum Vit D levels (<50 nmol/L) in COVID-19 patients. 2. Determine the relationship between baseline vitamin D status and disease severity, laboratory biochemical tests of white blood cell count (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), lymphocyte count,

In front of the recent emergence of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus (COVID) in December 2019 in the Wuhan region of China, knowledge of the clinical course and of the aggravating risk factors linked to this virus is still incomplete. COVID is associated with severe morbidity and an estimated mortality of

1. Aims/Objectives The effectiveness of blockade of IL-6R in treating patients with COVID-19 disease of moderate severity will be tested in a pragmatic and adaptive randomized trial. The primary outcome is intubation or death within 14 days of enrollment OR administration of a rescue dose of IL-6

Scenario Multicenter study of patients hospitalized with SARS-CoV-2 in different institutions in Latin America and directed by the Coronavirus and Liver interest group of the Latin American Association for the Study of the Liver (ALEH), coordinated by Dr. Marcelo Silva. This project has been

Since March 2020, Europe has been facing the spread of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), an emerging infectious disease of viral zoonosis type, caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-21. This virus is responsible for an epidemic in Wuhan in November 2019 and a pandemic in March 2020. The mode of
