Serum ferritin as risk factor for sinusoidal obstruction syndrome of the liver in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) is a serious complication in hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. To determine the impact of pretransplantation hyperferritinemia on the risk of SOS after HSC transplantation, we retrospectively studied 427 HSCT recipients (179 autologous and 248 allogeneic). Serum ferritin levels were measured before transplantation. Patients with ...
متن کاملMetabolic Syndrome as a Risk Factor for Osteoarthritis
Metabolic syndrome refers to a set of conditions that include high blood pressure, increased insulin level in the blood, the accumulation of the excess fat around the abdomen, and increased blood lipids. In metabolic syndrome, the vast majority of these conditions are simultaneously present, and the risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and diabetes rises. Besides, osteoarthritis or degen...
متن کاملA Possible Genetic Link between MTHFR Genotype and Smoking Behavior
BACKGROUND Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for stroke and other vascular events. The variant methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T is associated with elevated homocysteine levels, cardiovascular disease and stroke, which supports a causal relationship between hyperhomocysteinemia and vascular disease. However, MTHFR variants have also been reported to be associate...
متن کاملNasal obstruction as a risk factor for sleep apnoea syndrome.
Nasal obstruction has frequently been mentioned as a possible risk factor in obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS). Over a 2-yr period, 541 unselected consecutive snorers referred for suspected breathing disorders during sleep were included to undergo posterior rhinomanometry. In addition cephalometric landmarks and body mass index (BMI) were obtained. Polysomnography was used to determine t...
متن کاملMaternal 677CT/1298AC genotype of the MTHFR gene as a risk factor for cleft lip.
Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is one of the most common congenital anomalies world wide. It has a prevalence of approximately 1/1000 among white populations and 1/600 among Thai newborns. Environmental and genetic factors have been implicated in CL/P and several different loci and genes have been associated with them. Maternal folic acid supplementation during earl...
