Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease, serum Amyloid A is an acute phase reactant. To assess the utility of serum Amyloid (A) as a Serum Biomarker for mucosal inflammation in patients with ulcerative colitis. This cross sectional study included 180 patients complaining of symptoms and signs suggesting active U.C. Basic information was collected including age, sex and course of present illness. Patients were divided according to colonoscopic features and histopathological findings into 2 groups; Group I (non-UC, n = 156) and Group II (UC group, n = 24). Group II was subdivided in

The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the urgent need to develop potential drugs in the absence of specific treatments. Antiasthmatics, recognised for their safety and efficacy, have been explored for their potential as antiviral therapies. Molecular docking, a rapid and efficient method, allows the screening of various molecules for structure-based drug design. In this study, molecular docking experiments were carried out, revealing the potential of antiasthmatics in the treatment of COVID-19. Most compounds showed higher binding affinity than the standard ligand, and promising candidates were ide

The objective of this research is to examine the frequency of incidence of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases in individuals with hepatitis C virus (HCV), along with the importance of the diseases for advancement of liver fibrosis. In the exploratory study, 898 individuals with chronic liver disease were also involved. With a median age of 55, the participant's gender distribution was 52% female and 48% male. The patients are qualified for antiviral therapy, the researchers concluded after completing a multicenter study in Bangladesh and Pakistan. A study analyzed medical records to dete

The face is a cosmetically sensitive region where the process of ageing is most clearly manifested. As the proportion of the ageing population in industrialized countries continues to increase, the dermatological concerns of the aged grow in medical importance. Intrinsic structural changes occur as a natural consequence of ageing and are genetically determined. The rate of ageing is significantly different among different populations, as well as among different anatomical sites even within a single individual. The intrinsic rate of skin ageing in any individual can also be dramatically influen

The healthcare landscape is experiencing a significant transformation propelled by innovative technologies such as Telemedicine, remote monitoring, and wearable devices. Sustainability in healthcare entails the delicate balance of meeting current high-quality, affordable care needs while preserving environmental and social well-being for future generations. Digital healthcare is poised to play a pivotal role in achieving this equilibrium by optimizing resource utilization, minimizing environmental impact, and enhancing operational efficiency. This paper explores the dynamic intersection of dig
