Recently, inflammation has been found to be a significant factor in the development of Schizophrenia (SCZ). The aim of the present research was to investigate whether interleukin-33 (IL-33, OMIM: 608678) gene polymorphism (rs11792633, C/T) is associated with the development of SCZ or not.DNA was isolated from the serum of 70 patients with SCZ and 70 healthy controls. The PCR based method was us...

Interleukin-33 (IL-33), a newly described member of the IL-1 family, is located on chromosome 9p24, a chromosomal region of interest in Alzheimer's disease (AD) defined by many genome-wide studies. Three intronic rs1157505, rs11792633, and rs7044343 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within IL-33 have recently been reported to be associated with risk of AD in Caucasian populations. In order...

The association between interleukin-33 (IL-33) gene polymorphisms and late onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) remains controversial in previous studies. Thus, a meta-analysis was conducted to assess the association between the IL-33 polymorphisms (rs11792633 and rs7044343) and LOAD susceptibility. Crude odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to investigate the relationship str...

Extensive evidence highlights the role of inflammatory processes in major depressive disorder (MDD). However, most studies have examined a consistent set of inflammatory cytokines and there is evidence that other immune-derived products may play a role in MDD. In this article, we present data from 3 complimentary studies that support the role of a novel cytokine, interleukin-33 (IL-33), in depr...

background and aims. the imaging techniques commonly used for foreign body detection include plain radiography, xeroradiography, computed tomography (ct) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and ultrasonography. the aim of the present study was to compare cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) with conventional ct scan in determination of the exact location of a foreign body in the maxillofaci...

the c7-ras 6/061-004 training course by the international atomic energy agency/regional cooperative agreement (iaea/rca) was held in chiba in 2014. the syllabus, pre- and post-course evaluations, and survey questionnaire results were assembled in this course. the post-course evaluation, including 32 questions similar to the pre-course evaluation, was performed right after the end of the final e...

introduction: mandibular fracture is the most common facial bone fracture due to facial trauma. a variety of imagings have been used for diagnosis of mandibular fractures. however, the choice of imaging for diagnosis of mandibular fractures is controversial.present study compares the accuracy of the three most common imaging methods in mandibular fracture diagnosis panoramic radiography, corona...
