A nocturnal leg cramps (NLC) is caused by a continuous, involuntary, painful, and localized contraction of a muscle or simply some muscle bundles.NLC is associated with a reduced quality of sleep and a subsequent lower health related quality of life. The purpose of our study is to clarify both prevalence and characteristics of NLC in …
In this study, we examined the relationship between the expression of Fas/Fas ligand apoptotic signaling pathway and pancreatic fibrosis in autoimmune chronic pancreatitis of aly/aly mice. The histopathological changes of inflammatory cell infiltration in pancreatitis aly/ aly mice were observed. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of CD4, CD8, CD45R/B220, F4, Fas/Fas ligand, collagen …
Achalasia is a primary esophageal motility disorder characterized by the absence of esophageal peristalsis and impaired relaxation of the Lower Esophageal Sphincter (LES) in response to swallowing. The annual incidence of achalasia is approximately 1.6 per 100,000 individuals worldwide and prevalence of 10 cases per 100,000 individuals. Patients present usually with progressive dysphagia to solids …
Nearly 60% of the patients with the novel virus have elevated liver enzymes. Liver inflammation can be hypothesized to the immune mediated process such as cytokine storm and pneumonia associated hypoxia that may lead to liver enzyme abnormalities or liver failure in critically ill patients…
To eradicate Helicobacter Pylori (HP) infection its necessary to use at least two antibiotics. In patients infected with HP resistant to two or three antibiotics, eradication is more difficult. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of bismuth quadruple therapy (BQT)-10 days (omeprazole, bismuth, tetracycline-TET, and metronidazole-MTZ) for the eradication for HP …
An interesting case of eosinophilic hepatitis related to an antitumor drug Imatinib. The histologic pictures are very rare and very interesting also for the disappearance of the lesion after removing the drug.
Direct-Acting Antivirals (DAAs) have revolutionized the management of hepatitis C infection. However, genotype 3 cirrhosis is still difficult to treat. We report our experience in the management of geno- type 3 cirrhosis with DAA’s. We analysed 111 adult cirrhotics with genotype 3 infection of which 54 (48.6%) had Decom- pensated Cirrhosis (DC). Patients with Compensated
Recent studies have found that elevated uric acid in intestine during an inflammatory response could exacerbate intestinal disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of serum uric acid level with Chinese ulcerative colitis
Tuberculous peritonitis is an uncommon disease in countries with low tuberculosis (TB) inci- dence, most often affecting non-white race, foreign-born individuals. We describe a case of TB with peritoneal involvement in a 32-year-old man immigrated to Italy from Burkina Faso, who presented with a history of fever, malaise
Heme oxygenases, mainly including heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) and heme oxygenase-1(HO-2), play a key role in protecting from oxidative stress and inflammation associated with vascular disease. Little is known, however, about the roles of HO-1 and HO-2 in the livers of rats with chronic cerebral hypo perfusion. The study aims to evaluate the expression and roles of …

*2021 Journal unofficial Impact Factor was established by dividing the number of articles published in 2020 with the number of times they are cited in 2021 based on Google Scholar Citation Index database. If ‘X’ is the total number of articles published in 2020 and ‘Y’ is the number of times these articles were cited in indexed journals during 2021 then, journal impact factor = Y/X.
