BACKGROUND Unemployment is a source of acute and long-term psychosocial stress. Acute and chronic psychosocial stress can induce pronounced changes in human immune responses. In this study we tested our hypothesis that stress-induced low-grade tissue inflammation is more prevalent among the unemployed. METHODS We determined the inflammatory status of 225 general population subjects below the ...

brain death is associated with increased inflammatory cytokines levels and poor graft quality to transplant. we aimed to evaluate the impact of ascorbic acid (aa) on the inflammatory status of brain-dead donors (bdds). forty bdds were randomly divided into two groups. donor treatment (n=20) consisted of 100 mg/kg aa infusion 6 hours before donor operation and subsequent infusion of 100 mg/kg/p6...

OBJECTIVE Procalcitonin is useful for the diagnosis of sepsis, but its prognostic value regarding mortality is unclear. Our objective was to determine the prognostic value of procalcitonin determined at the onset of sepsis, and to compare it with other markers of inflammatory response, malnutrition and organ dysfunction data. METHODS We studied 253 hospitalized patients (146 men, 107 women) w...

HYPOTHESIS Serum 25(OH)D concentration will be lower in patients with IBD compared to controls. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A case-controlled ...

Background Macrophages infiltrate adipose tissue at the onset of weight gain and directly contribute to adipose inflammation, insulin resistance, and obesity [1]. The type of fuel substrate utilized by macrophages is central to the formation of obesity, a global epidemic [2]. Our goal is to understand the role of macrophage glucose metabolism in the promotion of inflammation and insulin resista...
