Metabolic Syndrome as a Risk Factor for Osteoarthritis
Metabolic syndrome refers to a set of conditions that include high blood pressure, increased insulin level in the blood, the accumulation of the excess fat around the abdomen, and increased blood lipids. In metabolic syndrome, the vast majority of these conditions are simultaneously present, and the risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and diabetes rises. Besides, osteoarthritis or degen...
متن کاملShort telomeres are a risk factor for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) have a progressive and often fatal course, and their enigmatic etiology has complicated approaches to effective therapies. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common of IIPs and shares with IIPs an increased incidence with age and unexplained scarring in the lung. Short telomeres limit tissue renewal capacity in the lung and germ-line mutati...
متن کاملCystic fibrosis is a risk factor for celiac disease.
BACKGROUND The coexistence of cystic fibrosis (CF) and celiac disease (CD) has been reported. To our knowledge there is no study directly comparing the incidence of CD in CF patients to that in the general population at the same time. There is no published data on genetic predisposition to CD in CF patients either. Therefore, in the present study we aimed to assess the genetic predisposition to...
متن کاملA biomarker panel for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and NASH-related fibrosis.
BACKGROUND Patients with biopsy-proven NASH and especially those with fibrosis are at risk for progressive liver disease, emphasizing the clinical importance of developing non-invasive biomarkers for NASH and NASH-related fibrosis. AIM This study examines the performance of a new biomarker panel for NASH and NASH-related fibrosis with a combination of clinical and laboratory variables. METH...
متن کاملUncovering a Predictive Molecular Signature for the Onset of NASH-Related Fibrosis in a Translational NASH Mouse Model
Background & Aims The incidence of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is increasing. The pathophysiological mechanisms of NASH and the sequence of events leading to hepatic fibrosis are incompletely understood. The aim of this study was to gain insight into the dynamics of key molecular processes involved in NASH and to rank early markers for hepatic fibrosis. Methods A time-course study in ...
