Evidence shows independent associations between hyperuricaemia and the risk of hypertension, myocardial infarction, chronic kidney disease (CKD), type 2 diabetes, heart failure, and metabolic syndrome, including obesity Furthermore, gout, an inflammatory arthritis caused by deposition of monosodium
As part of the central nervous system (CNS), the retina shares key structural and functional features with the brain, making it a potential portal into a patient's medical future. Since the cerebral and retinal microvasculature are strikingly similar, the condition of retinal vasculature has been
Problem definition.
In Europe, each day more than 1000 patients suffer from cardiac arrest. Despite improvement of medical technologies mortality is still very high, around 75 - 80%. Of the patients who initially survive to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission, more than 50% still dies or remains
Photobiomodulation (PBM), also called low-level light therapy (LLLT), uses optical power densities less than 100 mW/cm², and usually in the red (600-700 nm) or near infrared (NIR) 780-1000 nm wavelength range. Different light sources (coherent lasers or non-coherent LEDs) used for PBM have been
Calcineurin Inhibitors (CNIs) and Renal Fibrosis. CNIs including CsA and tacrolimus are the cornerstone of maintenance immunosuppression in solid organ transplantation. These drugs are so effective that newer generation CNIs such as Voclosporin (Isotechnika Pharma, Inc, Edmonton, Alberta) are in

Scientific Abstract:
Over the past 30 years, the prevalence of childhood obesity in the United States has tripled from 5% to 15%. Overweight is defined as a body mass index (BMI) above the 95%centile for age and gender. The recent estimates of obesity prevalence based on the National Health and
The annual rate of aSAH in United States is approximately 18 to 24 thousand cases each year. Mortality rates following aSAH range from 30-70% with 10-20% of survivors experiencing severe neurological disability. Following aSAH, a major cause of morbidity and mortality is vasospasm, which causes
In Western society, the most common causes of chronic nonischemic mitral regurgitation (MR) is myxomatous degeneration of the valve.Unlike pressure overload, where fibrosis reduction and renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade is beneficial, the dynamics of extracellular matrix homeostasis in volume
