[ 1 ] - خصوصیات دموگرافیک و بالینی بیماران مبتلا به صرع میوکلونیک جوانان در اصفهان

زمینه: صرع میوکلونیک جوانان از شایع‎ترین انواع صرع‎های ژنرالیزه ایدیوپاتیک است و حدود 11- 5 درصد کلّ صرع‎ها را تشکیل می‎دهد. با توجه به خصوصیات بالینی صرع میوکلونیک جوانان، این بیماری درکلینیک‎ها به خوبی تشخیص داده نمی‎شود و درمان صحیح انجام نمی‎گیرد و این در صورتی است که پاسخ به درمان در این بیماران عالی و بیماران نیاز به درمان را در تمام طول زندگی دارند. مواد و روش‎ها: در یک مطالعه توصیفی آ...

[ 2 ] - Cancer risk among patients with multiple sclerosis: A cohort study in Isfahan, Iran

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS), a central nervous system (CNS) autoimmune disorder, affects 2.3 million people around the world. Cancer kills around 7.5 million people annually. Both diseases have similar risks and intertwining molecular causes. Most studies focusing on MS and cancer have found an insignificant difference or reduction in the amount of cancer found in the MS community. M...

[ 4 ] - The Association Between Salt and Potassium Intake With Multiple Sclerosis

Background: The number of patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is increasing in Iran. Studies have shown that high sodium chloride (salt) and low potassium intake are associated with the development of MS. High physiological salt concentrations can lead to the induction of Interleukin-17 (IL-17) accompanied by the excessive generation of helper T-17 cells (Th-17). This cytokine plays a critica...

[ 5 ] - Negative Regulation of Semaphorin-3A Expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Using MicroRNA-497-5p

Background: Semaphorin-3A (Sema3A), as a secreted semaphorin, is an immune modulator molecule participating in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) modulate the target-gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. It has been proposed that miRNAs may be crucial to the modulation of the function of semaphorins. Previous findings have proven that miR-497-5p is upregula...
