During the past decade, the role of inflammation in the pathophysiology of arterial thrombosis has been elucidated. However, comparatively little is known about the relationship between inflammation and venous thrombosis. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review of clinical studies that have examined the association between inflammation and venous thrombosis, specifically: (1) t...

The pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is insufficiently understood and presumed to possibly involve inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between inflammation markers, other markers of endothelial dysfunction and anthropometric parameters and their association with DR in patients with type 2 diabetes, divided into three groups...

Scope A high fructose and galactose intake show adverse metabolic effects in animal models humans, but it is yet unknown if addition of fermentable dietary fiber can mitigate such effects. This study investigate the intakes galactose, with/without added fructooligosaccharides (FOS), on factors, inflammation, gut integrity markers rats. Methods Results Rats (n = 6/group) receive different carboh...

Introduction: Chronic vascular inflammatory state plays an important role in the pathophysiology of thalassemia. Cross-sectional studies suggest that exercise has anti-inflammatory effects, leading to lower levels of several proatherogenic inflammatory markers. However, this has yet to be confirmed by randomized prospective trials. The present pilot study examined the effect of Concurrent) Trai...
