Article Synopsis
- Chronic inflammation, particularly through interleukin-6 (IL-6), is linked to both rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and cardiovascular disease (CVD), with IL-6 levels correlating to joint damage and disease severity.
- A study involving 60 RA patients and 30 healthy controls found that IL-6 levels were significantly higher in RA patients, correlating with several CVD risk assessment tools (Framingham Risk Score and SCORE) and markers like NT-proBNP and HS-CRP.
- The findings suggest that elevated IL-6 may serve as a potential biomarker for predicting cardiovascular risks in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Background And Aims: Breast cancer (BC) is considered one of the most common malignant tumors leading to death in women, and genetic factors have a crucial role in BC pathogenesis. Zyxin (ZYX) is one of these factors that may be important in p53 level and function. Thus, the present work aimed to investigate the ZYX gene and protein expression in tumor tissue and matched margin tissue and its correlation with the p53 expression.

This study was conducted to clarify the occurrence of autoantibodies (AABs) associated with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs) in hospitalized patients with a moderate, severe, and critical form of COVID-19.
Methods: The serum samples obtained from 176 hospitalized COVID-19 patients were investigated in this study, including patients with moderate (N = 90), severe (N = 50), and critical (N = 36) forms of COVID-19.
Background: Metabolic dysregulation and excessive inflammation are implicated in the pathogenesis of the highly infectious disease of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is caused by a newly emerging coronavirus (i.e., severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2; SARS-CoV-2).
