Article Synopsis
- Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is common and linked to inflammation, particularly cytokines influenced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, prompting research into their correlation with GAD symptoms.
- A study with 89 GAD patients and 70 control subjects analyzed fasting blood samples for 12 cytokines post-LPS stimulation, finding significant increases in several cytokines, especially IL-6 and IL-8.
- Results showed that levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α correlated with anxiety severity, with IL-10 negatively impacting physical anxiety symptoms and TNF-α linked to mental anxiety.
Objective: We analyzed the correlation between mutation in intron 4 and exon 7 of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and avascular necrosis of femoral head (ANFH).
Method: A total of 260 ANFH cases without history of hip joint injuries were diagnosed and subject to staging according to Ficat standard, with 262 health subjects as control. Venous blood was collected to extract genome DNA, which was then amplified by PCR.
