...Hua Luo; Gaoyuan Liao; Xiaobo Wang; Chao He; Yanghan Liu Introduction: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in older men, marked by the noncancerous enlargement of the prostate gland. Inflammation of the prostate plays a significant role in the progression of BPH...

... immune inflammation index (SII) for responses of intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy in patients with intermediate- and high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Methods: From 9 centers, we reviewed the data of patients treated for intermediate- and high-risk NMIBC between...

..., concomitant chronic inflammation of the epididymis maintains a hydrocele and may even promote its recurrence. Despite some studies on surgical outcome in terms of recurrence and complication rates between various hydrocelectomy techniques [ 6‒10 ], no studies investigated the impact of a chronic epididymis...

... group, and gastrodin-treated IRI group. Gastrodin or 0.9% saline (300 mg/kg/day) was intragastrically administrated for 8 days before operation. We analyzed renal function and histological change. The malondialdehyde level, antioxidant enzymes’ activities, and markers of inflammation and apoptosis were...

... was significantly associated with the presence of BPH. Our results suggest the possible effect of inflammation on BPH development. A prospective study is needed to investigate the potential role of NLR as a candidate biomarker of BPH. [email protected] 7 09 2020 4 11 2020 28 1 2021...

.... Immune system response and inflammation have been found as a common hallmark of both diseases. Most severe cases of COVID-19 and high-risk NMIBC patients at higher recurrence and progression risk are characterized by innate and adaptive immune activation followed by inflammation and cytokine/chemokine...
