Hepatitis C virus (HCV) type 4 is the predominant genotype found throughout the Middle East and parts of Africa, often in association with high population prevalence as in Egypt. To investigate more fully its evolutionary relationship with other genotypes of HCV, and to study its overall genome organization, we have determined the entire sequence encompassing the coding region of the genotype 4...

• Adherence to a Mediterranean diet is associated with reduced platelet and leukocyte counts. • The observed associations are partially explained by the high dietary fiber and antioxidant content of the Mediterranean diet. Platelet (PLT) and white blood cell (WBC) counts are 2 markers of inflammation and have been linked to the risk for cerebrovascular and coronary heart disease. A Mediterranea...

BACKGROUND The outcome of in vitro fertilization (IVF) has been widely investigated over the last 30 years, but evaluation was mostly based on pregnancy rate per oocyte retrieval. Our objective was to estimate the cumulative live birth rate after four IVF aspirations, using multiple imputation that takes into account treatment interruptions. METHODS We analysed data from 3037 couples beginnin...
