Its spectrum can vary from alcohol-related fatty liver, alcoholic hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma. Multiple environmental, genetic, socio-economic epigenetic factors are intrinsically involved, affecting behavior progression. Recent advances in genome-w...

background and objectives: mycobacterium tuberculosis complex is consisted of homogenous organisms. they are slowly growing mycobacteria and their isolation and identification are difficult and time consuming. differentiation of mycobacterium bovis, causative mammalian tuberculosis, from other members of mycobacterium tuberculosis complex is very important in epidemiology and control of disease...

advancements in medical science have led to the development of complex surgeries that improve survival in patients with liver disease. assessments of the indications and contraindications for surgery and risk factors are the most important steps prior to any surgery in this population. particular attention is essential to assess for the presence of pre-surgical ascites, hepatic encephalopathy a...

in this paper, a five–dimensional mathematical model is proposed for the transmission dynamics of hiv/aids within a population of varying size. in writing the model, we have divided the population under consideration into five sub classes of susceptible, infective, pre-aids, aids related complex and that of aids patients. the model has two non- negative equilibria namely, a disease free and the...
