Atherosclerotic Background of Hepatosteatosis in Sickle Cell Diseases

On the Relationship between Teachers’ Behavior and Corporal Punishment : Lessons, Implications, and Recommendations

“…This study showed that, only 9.5% of medical students thought that FM specialty provides a high salary in comparison with other specialties, a result that was revealed from another study done on medical students in Toronto University where about 89% of them saw that FPs are paid too little (28). In another study medical students see that the FP is unable to gain additional income from the private sector (11).…”

“…In Saudi Arabia's study 57% (21) agreed on this statement. Assessing knowledge of parents' in Mosul, Iraq (28) revealed that 43% of them consider vaccination as harmful and causing side effects. Another study in Mosul (29) revealed that 23% of parents were concerned about side effect of vaccine.…”

“…SCDs are severe inflammatory processes terminating with significant health problems in both genders (28). For example, menarche is significantly retarded in females with the SCDs (29).…”

Plant-derived oleanolic acid ameliorates markers of subclinical inflammation and innate immunity activation in diet-induced pre-diabetic rats

“…This is evidenced by the presence of chronic inflammation in diseases such as atherosclerosis and hepatosteatosis. 20 Hence, these previous findings led to the investigation of the effects of OA on pre-diabetes-induced innate immunity activation and the resulting sub-clinical chronic inflammation. Activation of innate immunity and the inflammatory pathway during pre-diabetes is one of the contributing factors that facilitate the progression of pre-diabetes to overt T2DM.…”

Left Renal Atrophy in Sickle Cell Diseases

“…Some reversible components of the syndrome are overweight, hypertriglyceridemia, hyperbetalipoproteinemia, dyslipidemia, white coat hypertension, impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance, and smoking for the development of terminal consequences such as obesity, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension (HT), coronary heart disease (CHD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cirrhosis, chronic renal disease (CRD), peripheric artery disease (PAD), stroke, and other end-organ failures (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8). Sickle cell diseases (SCDs) are a prototype of the accelerated atherosclerosis (9,10), by which we can observe terminal consequences of the metabolic syndrome very early in life. SCDs are caused by homozygous inheritance of the hemoglobin S (Hb S).…”
