Evaluating the Diagnostic and Prognostic Value of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and Soluble Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells-1 (sTREM-1) in Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) and Sepsis in Adults.

Introduction: Sepsis and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) are significant concerns in intensive care units and contribute significantly to patient mortality. Traditional diagnostic markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) often lack the sensitivity and specificity needed for early diagnosis and prognosis. Consequently, more reliable biomarkers are needed.

Possible link between familial susceptibility to cancer and the level of oxidative stress in thyroid cancer patients.

Background: Hereditary cancer is estimated to account for up to 10% of the worldwide cancer burden; 5% of all thyroid cancers are thought to be genetic. Inheritance of a deleterious mutation in genes associated with a high lifetime risk of developing cancer. Cancer-predisposing genes can promote the initiation and progression of thyroid cancer by enhancing the activation of major signaling pathways through oxidative stress mechanisms.

The place of beta-adrenergic receptor blockers in the treatment of arterial hypertension: From bench-to-bedside.

Arterial hypertension is a multifaceted condition influenced by numerous pathophysiological factors. The key contributors to its pathogenesis encompass an unhealthy lifestyle, dysregulation of the sympathetic nervous system, alterations in the activity of adrenergic receptors, disruptions in sodium metabolism, structural and functional abnormalities in the vascular bed, as well as endothelial dysfunction, low-grade inflammation, oxidative stress etc. Despite extensive research into the mechanisms of arterial hypertension development over the centuries, its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood, and the selection of an effective treatment strategy continues to pose a significant challenge.

Selected osteointegration markers in different timeframes after dental implantation: findings and prognostic value.

The study aimed to determine the osteointegration markers after dental implantation and evaluate their predictive value. The study was performed on 60 practically healthy persons who needed teeth rehabilitation using dental implants. The conical-shaped implants (CI) and hexagonal implants (HI) were used.

Finding possible diagnostic markers for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid tumors on example investigate of rheological properties1.

Background: The functioning of the thyroid gland is a multi-component process that in some conditions may undergo alterations. The thyroid gland is part of the endocrine system that produces the iodine-containing hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Thyroid hormones, control metabolism and energy, growth processes, maturation of tissues and organs, regulation of blood flow, and, therefore, providing vital functions of the body.
