Objective: The aim: The aim was to study the relationships of IRS-1 gene polymorphism with indicators of the structural and functional state of the heart and blood vessels in patients with arterial hypertension under conditions of different metabolic comorbidity and body weight.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: We examined 340 patients with arterial hypertension with different body weight and different types of metabolic comorbidity and 30 healthy individuals aged 45-55. Anthropometric, Biochemical, Molecular genetic methods, Instrumental, Statistical methods were used.
Objective: The aim: To investigate theimpact of asthma co-morbidity on the susceptibility and clinical course of COVID-19 in asthma patients.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: Electronic databases of Pubmed and Google Scholar were searched using keyword searches.
