Percutaneous liver biopsy is one of the widely accepted procedures to find any disorder, infection, and disease. Understanding the correlation between biopsy factors and adequacy rate will improvize efficacy a...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most frequently diagnosed cancer worldwide. Early recognition of the onset of HCC would help to select more effective therapies for patients leading to a better prog...
of the work Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a serious complication in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. SBP is an inflammation of the peritoneum by micro-organisms such as gram-negative bacilli...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer in the world and the third most common cause of mortality in patients with cancer. HCC represents one of cirrhosis complications. The aim of this ...
of the study Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is considered one of the major health problems. About 170 million patients were infected with HCV worldwide. Till few years, Egypt was considered the high...
Interactions between the heart and the liver have been described. The presence and severity of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was found to be associated with increased QTc interval and subclinical ca...
Early detection of renal dysfunction in live kidney donors is important and needs easy reliable tools. The aim of the study is to evaluate the cystatin level and cystatin-based equation in assessment of renal ...
Pretransplant administration of cyclosporine (CsA) may reduce post-transplant maintenance dose and consequently CsA inhibitor nephrotoxicity and helps in achieving the desired target C2 levels earlier. The opt...
The definite etiologies of hematological malignancies (HMs) are still unknown.

Thyroid dysfunction is a worldwide phenomenon in women, and the prevalence increases during pregnancy, with hypothyroidism being the most common. In most developing countries, nutritional deficiencies of nearl...
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the leading cause of kidney failure. The role of microRNAs (miRs) which are endogenous RNA oligonucleotides that regulate gene expression in DN is not yet clearly established. This...
Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is associated with dyslipidemia and low grade inflammation leading to atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis shows an association with inflammatory markers, which with dyslipidemia m...
The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between serum Sestrin2, Insulin resistance (IR), metabolic syndrome (MetS), and diabetic nephropathy (DN) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Adiponectin and ghrelin are orexigenic hormones involved in the regulation of appetite in kidney disease patients. The aim of the study is to investigate the plasma concentration of total adiponectin and ghrel...
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common chronic disease that is rapidly increasing worldwide.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common sleep disorders and up to 80% of people with OSA remain undiagnosed and yet the present data suggest that medical graduates underreport OSA and is usuall...
Screening for esophageal varices (EVs) is recommended in patients with cirrhosis. Recent studies have focused on noninvasive prediction of EVs. The aim of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of liver stiffn...
Zinc deficiency in patients with liver cirrhosis has been frequently studied. Although spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is one of the most serious complications of liver cirrhosis, few studies addressed...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the commonest tumors and considered the fifth most common malignant neoplasm and a major cause of death. Egypt has increased incidence of HCC cases, as Egypt has the hi...
Liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are consequences of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. HCC is one of the fastest rising causes of cancer-related mortality. This dismal prognosis is r...

Stevia is a naturally occurring non-nutritive sweetener that has been reported as sugar substitutes for diabetic patients. We aimed to assess the impact of stevia supplementation on glycemic control in patient...
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) is a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease. Cytokines play a crucial role in modulating immune responses that affect the balance between maintenance of self-tolerance and initiation o...
The prevalence of diabetes is highest in the Eastern Mediterranean Region, with Egypt leading the region (11% for both sexes) and lowest in the European Region (7% for both sexes). Genome-wide association stud...
The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (N/L) ratio is a biomarker of inflammation. We aimed to test the hypothesis that macrovascular and microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) involve an inflammat...
Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) is a novel marker of tissue ischemia and oxidative stress.
Irisin is a newly discovered myokin secreted by myocytes responsible for transmission of signals from muscles to other body tissues. Irisin improves systemic metabolism by increasing the energy expenditure. Ow...
