Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate how the MIF gene polymorphism rs755622 G>C influences the development and severity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Egyptian patients.
- It included 50 HCC patients and 50 healthy individuals, analyzing data through various scoring systems and genetic testing.
- Results revealed that specific genotypes (GG and GC) of the MIF gene occurred more frequently in HCC patients, particularly those with advanced liver disease, indicating a potential link between this genetic variant and HCC progression.
Background: Conflicting data were found regarding the anemia's effect on percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) outcomes. We directed our study to investigate anemia's effect on clinical in-stent restenosis (ISR) following PCI.
Results: A prospective multi-center cohort study was performed on 470 consecutive participants undergoing elective PCI.
Background: Liver fibrosis is the most important prognostic factor in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) patients, and Egypt shows the highest worldwide HCV prevalence with genotype-4 pre-dominance. The aim of this study was to investigate the degree of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) improvement after successful HCV eradication.
Patients And Methods: The study included 84 chronic HCV Egyptian patients, and was conducted at Qena University Hospital from November 1, 2015 till October 31, 2016.
