The Relationship Between HbA1c and Inflammatory Markers in Acute Ischemic Stroke with and without Diabetes Mellitus
Abstract: Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a prominent risk factor for acute ischemic stroke (AIS), contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although inflammatory markers like neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and C-reactive protein (CRP) are recognized as playing a role in the development of acute ischemic stroke (AIS), their association with diabetes mellitus (DM) in individuals affected by AIS remains uncertain. This study seeks to investigate the differences in …

Development of a Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Based Model Aimed at Forecasting the Prognostic Impact of C-Reactive Protein in Myocarditis
Abstract: The specific role of inflammation markers in myocarditis remains uncertain. We investigated the diagnostic and prognostic significance of C-reactive protein (CRP) levels at the initial diagnosis among myocarditis patients. Our retrospective study enrolled patients clinically suspected (CS) or biopsy-proven (BP) with myocarditis, with available CRP data at diagnosis. We collected patient information, including clinical, laboratory, and imaging findings at diagnosis and follow-up visits. We utilized machine learning methods, specifically random …

Comprehensive Perspective on Coronary Heart Disease: A Review
Abstract: The study explores intricate links between infections, inflammation, and coronary heart disease (CHD), emphasizing their multifaceted contributions to cardiovascular complications. It identifies infections as key players in atherosclerosis, a pivotal element in CHD development, with high antibody levels to specific pathogens as potential risk factors. The article highlights the role of the immune response and elevated C reactive protein (CRP) levels in amplifying infection-related CHD risks and recognizes smoking as …

Rheumatoid Arthritis and its Relationship with Vitamin D, ESR, and Obesity
Abstract: Recent years have seen a rise in the prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a disease marked by the destruction of articular cartilage and ankylosis of the joints, as well as other complications such as diffuse lung inflammation, sclera, pleura, pericardium, and nodular lesions, which are also common in subcutaneous tissue. Reviewing RA symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and associations with vitamin D, ESR, and obesity was the aim of the study. Even …

Importance of inflammatory marker ratio and lipid profile ratio in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Abstract: Background: Acute Ischemic Stroke is a chronic inflammatory disease that is projected to be one of the leading causes of mortality affecting millions of people globally. It is essential to study the Platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) ratios and C reactive protein (CRP) in impacting the inflammatory status during stroke. It is also important that altered lipid metabolism could influence the inflammatory conditions associated with AIS. Hence …

Physiological and Psychological Effects of Ekadashi Upavasa (Fasting Ritual) on Women: A Prospective cohort study on Metabolism, Immunity, and Mental Clarity
Abstract: Background: Ekadashi Upavasa, a traditional bi-monthly fasting ritual, is believed to offer physical, mental, and spiritual benefits. However, its scientific impact on metabolism, immunity, and mental clarity remains underexplored. This prospective cohort study evaluates these effects among women practicing the ritual at Krishna Temple, Amloh, over six months. Methods: A total of 800 women aged 25–50 years were recruited from Krishna Temple, Amloh, for this study, conducted from June 2024 …

Air Pollution and Immune Disorders in Women from Urban Punjab: A Clinical and Epidemiological Study
Abstract: Background: Urban Punjab, particularly cities like Ludhiana, Amritsar, and Jalandhar, experiences some of the highest air pollution levels in India due to industrial activity, vehicular emissions, and agricultural practices. Despite this, gender-specific health impacts—especially related to immune function—remain inadequately studied. Objective of the study is to investigate the relationship between air pollution exposure and immune-related disorders in women residing in urban Punjab. A cross-sectional study was conducted from 2022 to …

Integration of Biomarkers in III and IV CKD Patients for Evaluation of Their Predictive Value for CVD in CKD Patients
Abstract: Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is presently characterized by the presence of proteinuria and/or a diagnosis of renal impairment. The worldwide significance of CKD is underscored by the fact that its prevalence and incidence have doubled over the past three decades. This paper provides an overview of the existing evidence regarding biomarkers in individuals with CVD or CKD, with a particular focus on the emerging biomarkers (i.e., eGFR, sALB, UACR, …

Role of Inflammatory Markers and Lipid Abnormalities in Glycemic Dysregulation Among Type 2 Diabetics
Abstract: Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by systemic inflammation and associated with various complications in multiple organs. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) specifically involves insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, and inflammatory responses. This study investigates the levels of various inflammatory markers and their correlation with glycaemic control in T2DM patients. Objective: To evaluate the levels of inflammatory markers (including NLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, TGF-β, MCP-1, …
