Association between Galectin-3 and oxidative stress parameters with coronary artery disease in Tunisian population
1.1. Background: Galectin-3 (Gal-3), as a mediator of inflamma tion and fibrosis, has been reported to be a biomarker of severity in coronary artery disease (CAD). The study aimed to assess the rela tionships between coronary artery disease (CAD) and risk factors, including parameters of oxidative stress in Tunisian patients CAD.

In addition, the popularity of social networks has increased social and cultural pressure for the search for the “perfect body”.
The Role of Genetic Mutations in Genes RUNX1, RUNX1T1, CBFB & MYH11 on Core Binding Factor Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Acute myeloid leukemia (CBF-AML) is one of the causes of he matopoietic tissue (bone marrow) called acute myeloid leukemia. In normal bone marrow, early blood cells called hematopoietic stem cells develop into several types of blood cells: white blood cells (leukocytes) that protect the body against infection, red blood cells (erythrocytes) ) that carry oxygen and platelets (thrombo cytes) play a role in blood coagulation, in acute myeloid leukemia, the bone marrow produces a large number of abnormal and im mature white blood cells called myeloid blasts.
Height is a measure of consumption that incorporates nutritional needs: When and What?
Japan suffered heavily from WWII. Per capita food supply was 1,450 and 1,700 kcal/day in 1946 and 1947, respectively. Japan’s economy quickly recovered to the pre-war level in 10 years after the war, 2,200 kcal/day in average food supply in 1955, making steady progress toward the end of the century.
