SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Severe inflammation is reportedly associated with subsequent cardiovascular events, including in patients with coronary artery disease. This study aimed to examine the prognostic value of systemic immune-inflammation index and determine mortality and clinical ...

ABSTRACT Introduction: We investigated the relationship between the newly-defined systemic immune-inflammation index and the new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. Method: This study included 392 patients who underwent coronary art...

The pathophysiology of systemic inflammation and sepsis involves peripheral organs, causing gastrointestinal, renal, and cardiovascular alterations, as well as the central nervous system (CNS), affecting sleep, temperature regulation, behavior, and neuroendocrine function. The mo...

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis is often difficult and involves a synthesis of clinical, laboratory, and radiological findings. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the systemic immune inflammation index can be used as an effective paramet...

Alveolar hypoxia produces widespread systemic inflammation in rats. The inflammation appears to be triggered by activation of mast cells by a mediator released from alveolar macrophages, not by the reduced systemic partial pressure of oxygen (PO2). If this is correct, the followi...

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aims to examine the predictive role of systemic immune-inflammation index on postoperative new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS: A total of 722 patients undergoing elective off-pump ...

PERSISTENT LOW-GRADE INFLAMMATION, as indicated by higher circulating levels of inflammatory mediators such as C-reactive protein, interleukin-6 and tumour necrosis factor-α, is a strong risk factor for several chronic diseases. There are data indicating that decreasing energy in...

ABSTRACT Objectives To explore the prognostic value of obesity (measured by BMI) on RCC in a systemic inflammation state. Patients and Methods Clinicopathological and hematological data of 540 surgically treated Chinese localized RCC patients between 2005 and 2010 were retrospe...

Abstract Objectives: Fecal calprotectin is an inflammatory marker used for monitoring intestinal diseases. It has been studied as a marker of intestinal inflammation in cystic fibrosis (CF), a multi-systemic genetic disease caused by alterations to the CFTR gene. Manifestations ...

Orbital inflammation initially presented in a patient who five years later developed renal obstruction from retroperitoneal fibrosclerosis. Biopsy revealed infiltration of chronic lymphocytic cells in the orbit and dense fibrous connective tissue in the pelvis. Episodes of propto...

AIMS/BACKGROUND--Ocular cicatricial pemphigoid (OCP) can present with severe conjunctival inflammation that requires systemic immunosuppression to avoid serious ocular morbidity. This study aimed to assess the clinical response to cyclophosphamide and short term, high dose predni...

Sepsis and the multiorgan dysfunction syndrome are among the most common reasons for admission to an intensive care unit, and are a leading cause of death. During sepsis, the central nervous system (CNS) is one of the first organs affected, and this is clinically manifested as se...

AIMS--Ocular cicatricial pemphigoid (OCP) is a severe, potentially sight threatening systemic disease that sometimes requires systemic immunosuppression. This study assessed the clinical outcome of patients with OCP treated with sulphapyridine, a sulphonamide with an anti-inflamm...

Abstract The evidence is inconclusive regarding the effect of periodontal treatment on glycemic control and systemic inflammation in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and periodontitis Objective: To evaluate the effect of scaling and root planing (SRP) on the metabolic control...

BACKGROUND: Ocular cicatricial pemphigoid (OCP) is a sight threatening autoimmune disease that can lead to severe conjunctival cicatrisation and keratopathy. It has a variable course and little is known about the factors that determine disease progression. This study analysed the...

The role of C‐reactive protein...
