Bipolar Disorder is a chronic disabling psychiatric disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of mania or hypomania and depression. Bipolar Disorder can be separated into bipolar I and bipolar II disorders with bipolar I disorder characterizing individuals who have episodes of mania and
Growing evidences have pointed to the role of 5-lipooxygenase / leukotriene pathway in the pathogenesis of diabesity. Cysteinyl leukotrienes (Cys-LT) are potent inflammatory lipid mediators derived from the 5-lipoxygenase pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism. They act on Cys-LT receptors that are
A total of 210 coronary atherosclerosis patients without indications for stent implantation are included. Exclusion criteria:Aspirin resistance, uncontrolled hypertension (> 160 / 100mmHg),hemoglobin concentration <100g /L, hemorrhagic disease or a history of bleeding tendency, taking other
In patients with non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), the surgical resection remains the primary and preferred approach to the treatment of stage I-II NSCLC. Despite advances in surgical techniques, these patients have a risk of development a severe lung injury, because during lobectomy the
Anti-inflammatory mechanisms implicated in the anticarcinogenic potential of curcumin include: (1) inhibition of NF-κB and COX-2 (increased levels of COX-2 are associated with many cancer types); (2)inhibition of arachidonic acid metabolism via lipoxygenase and scavenging of free radicals generated
In particular, CRP levels in patients with persistent AF are higher than in those with paroxysmal AF, and levels in both groups are higher than those in the control group. Moreover, hs-CRP and IL-6 levels have been reported as markers that may identify those patients with a higher risk of AF
Sixty young adult obese and non obese women, with, and without asthma, were studied using a cross-sectional design. Body composition was measured by plethysmography. A fasted blood sample was taken to measure: specific and total immunoglobulin (IgE) antibodies,biochemical markers of atopy; glucose
ARDS is defined by acute hypoxemia, respiratory failure and the presence of bilateral lung infiltrates. ARDS is a syndrome of inflammation and increased permeability that may coexist with left atrial or pulmonary capillary hypertension. Several recent trials in ARDS / ALI (Acute Lung Injury) have
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To analyze the impact of combined treatment of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) (aspirin) and zileuton on smoking-related gene expression signature in the nasal epithelium in current smokers and to analyze any difference between the ASA and zileuton intervention and placebo
Background In 2007 Colombia was one of the five countries in the world with the highest number of anti-personnel landmine victims [1]. These are small devices designed to injure or kill people and animals by exploding when a minimum pressure is exerted on them (approximately 6 Force-Kg) [2]. Between
Psoriasis is one of the most common chronic inflammatory skin disorders, affecting about 2% of the general population. It is considered to be a T-cell-mediated inflammatory skin disease which is characterized by hyper-proliferation and poor differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes. Even if the
An emerging concept in clinical nutrition is that dietary interventions may improve the course of systemic inflammatory disorders like rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. Most of this effect depends on the ability of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) to modulate immune and inflammatory responses.
The guiding concept of our proposal is that both the total fat and the fatty acid composition of the diet contribute to a milieu associated with the risk for sex-hormone mediated cancers. Specifically, we hypothesize that an increased concentration of circulating n3 fatty acids will reduce the
In the United States, an estimated 1.7 million people sustain a traumatic brain injury (TBI) annually; associated with 1.365 million emergency room visits and 275,000 hospitalizations annually with associated direct and indirect cost estimated to have been 4 billion in the United States in 2000.
1.Rationale and Specific Aims
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and the second most frequent cause of cancer related mortality in the United States. Animal and human studies have suggested that the marine-derived n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), eicosapentanoic acid
