Article Synopsis
- - Cardiovascular diseases are common in rheumatoid arthritis patients, with factors like epicardial fat thickness and specific serum biomarker levels (betatrophin, chemerin, and adropin) potentially linked to these conditions.
- - The study involved 80 RA patients and 80 healthy controls, measuring serum biomarker levels and epicardial fat thickness through echocardiography while excluding individuals with other health complications.
- - Results showed that RA patients had higher epicardial fat thickness and chemerin levels, along with lower adropin levels, suggesting a significant relationship between RA and cardiovascular involvement.
Taxifolin (dihydroquercetin) is a flavanonol isolated from various plants and has antioxidant effects. The aim of our study was to macroscopically and biochemically investigate the effects of taxifolin on aspirin-induced oxidative gastric damage in rats and to evaluate them by comparison with those of famotidine. Rats were divided into four drug administration groups: a healthy control group, an aspirin-only group (ASG), a taxifolin + aspirin group (TASG), and a famotidine + aspirin group (FASG).
