Methods Five groups of subjects were enrolled viz. control (n=146), HBV-carriers (n=68), chronic active HBV (n=64), HBV-cirrhotics (n=60) and HBV-related HCC (n=59). Allele-specific-PCR was performed to study various polymorphic forms of IFN-g (+874) and blood levels were estimated by ELISA. Genotype distribution was compared using chi square analysis and the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CI were c...

We have studied nucleic acid antibodies in 23 insulindependent diabetics, 27 of their first degree relatives, and 23 normal, unrelated controls. We have found a significantly increased prevalence of antibody to ssDNA, ds-RNA (reovirus), and synthetic RNA (Poly A Poly U, Poly I Poly C) in the unaffected relatives as well as in the diabetics when compared with normal controls. There was no relati...

Biologic therapies improved dramatically the outcome of psoriatic arthritis and moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis. Anti-TNF agents were developed approximately one decade ago by rheumatologists and today represent one of the most effective classes of drugs in severe psoriasis resistant to 2 out of 3 "classic" systemic therapies (methotrexate, cyclosporine, and PUVA). Recent studies on...
