Ionic iron causes damages at the cellular level by forming free radicals. Reactive oxygen species lead to the formation of oxidative base damages in DNA. Among these forms the most common one and the one which has the best known mutagenity is 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). We aimed to determine iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and its different forms of treatments; probable oxidative damage on DNA by looking at the level of 8-OHdG. The patients were divided into 4 subgroups: Oral treatment (p.o.) group; Intramuscular treatment (i.m.) group; Intravenous treatment (i.v.) group; Healthy control group. Blood and urine samples were taken from all patients totally 4 times. 8-OHdG levels detected in blood and urine samples were compared with the control group. IDA and the treatment of it affect the level of 8-OHdG. p.o. therapy should be the top priority on children.

The study was designed to appraise the effects of early antibiotic administration on reproductive tract infections and fetal membrane cell scorching in instances of premature rupture of membranes (PROM). A total of 107 pregnant women diagnosed with PROM between July 2020 and June 2022 were randomly assigned to two groups: the Intervention (n=54), where ampicillin were administered within 24 hours of PROM onset, and the control group (n=53), where ampicillin were given 24-48 hours after PROM. Maternal and neonatal outcomes, incidence of reproductive tract infections, and fetal membrane cell scorching indicators (Caspase-1, Caspase -3, Caspase-9 and IL-β) were compared.

December 2024

Department of Infection and Immunity, Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center, Fudan University, Shanghai 201508, China.

This study aimed to investigate the impact of IL-35 on the prognosis of patients with HBV-ACLF. We recruited 69 patients with HBV-ACLF, 20 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), 17 patients with liver cirrhosis (LC), and 20 healthy controls (HCs) from a regional infectious disease treatment center in China. Plasma levels of IL-35 at baseline were detected using ELISA.
