viremia/carbohydrate

Circulating leukocytes that express selectin ligands such as the carbohydrate epitope sialyl Lewis X (sLeX) may interact with endothelial selectins, resulting in transmigration of the leukocyte across the endothelial wall to adjacent tissue. Due to the potential of selectin-ligand interactions as

The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between metabolic disorders and polymorphic variants of the genes encoding for beta-2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2 (rs1042713) and apolipoproteins B (ApoB(rs5742904) in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) depending on virus genotype and in

Background. Intensification of antiretroviral therapy with raltegravir does not affect levels of residual human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 viremia, but it has led to increased levels of episomal HIV-1 DNA in some patients, suggesting antiviral activity against otherwise unresponsive components

BACKGROUND Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity, the variable most commonly measured to assess hepatic disease, fails to identify many patients with hepatic injury. Current standards for "normal" ALT level were defined by using populations that included persons with subclinical liver
