1. C-reactive protein to lymphocyte count ratio is a promising novel marker in hepatitis C infection: the clear hep-c study
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is one of the most important health problems affecting the significant rate of world population and it may lead to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. C-reactive protein to lymphocyte count ratio (CLR) is used in estimating inflammatory burden. Therefore, this study aimed to compare CLR values between CHC pat

3. Impact of radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma on carotid stenosis risk: a meta-analysis
Abstract Objects: Radiotherapy (RT) serves as the most effective treatment for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) and can cause carotid stenosis. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of RT on carotid stenosis in NPC patients, as well as to explore the risk factors for significant carotid stenosis. Methods: Studies reporting the carotid stenosis in NPC

4. Evaluation of the structure, autoimmunity, and functions of the thyroid gland in familial Mediterranean fever patients
ABSTRACT Objective Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive autoinflammatory disorder that is frequently seen in the eastern Mediterranean region. The thyroid gland can be affected in FMF patients through autoimmunity or amyloidosis. Here, we aimed to evaluate the structure and functions of the thyroid gland in addition to possible auto

8. Psychometric properties of the EUROHIS-QOL 8-item index (WHOQOL-8) in a Brazilian sample
Objective: To test the psychometric properties of the EUROHIS-QOL 8-item index in a Brazilian sample. Methods: The sample consisted of 151 patients and 174 healthy controls (n=325). Several psychometric properties were tested. Results: Reliability showed good internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.81). The measure showed good discriminant validity b

9. Heavy metal tolerance traits of filamentous fungi isolated from gold and gemstone mining sites
ABSTRACT Increased environmental pollution has necessitated the need for eco-friendly clean-up strategies. Filamentous fungal species from gold and gemstone mine site soils were isolated, identified and assessed for their tolerance to varied heavy metal concentrations of cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), arsenic (As) and iron (Fe). The identities of the
