Recent work in the area of Obesity has confirmed that Obesity is a state of low grade chronic inflammation and is associated with increased levels of TumorNecrosisFactor-α, a pro-inflammatory adipocytokine, which plays a key role in the pathogenesis of Diabetes. In this study we analysed the interrelations between TumorNecrosisFactor-α with anthropometric and clinical variables. The study was c...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a worldwide epidemic disorder with considerable health and economic consequences. Metformin is one of the most commonly prescribed oral antidiabetic drugs. Pharmacogenetic studies showed that variants in genes related to the pharmacokinetics of metformin were associated with glucose-lowering effect of metformin. The aim of this study was to evaluate pharmacogenetic v...

Immune response and metabolic regulation are highly integrated and the proper function of each is dependent on the other. Cytokines are helpful towards the host response but potentially hazardous if uncontrollable or in excess. This review evaluated the role of cytokines in the metabolic response to surgery and the association with the new insight of enhancing recovery after surgery. Surgery is...
