The antioxidant system can be critical in reducing exacerbated inflammation COVID-19. This study compared the and inflammatory responses between COVID-19 outpatients seemingly healthy individuals. descriptive-analytical cross-sectional was conducted on 53 individuals as controls. serum concentrations of amyloid A (SAA), total capacity (TAC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were measured patients controls using independent sample t-test before after controlling for...
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) can have more pronounced effects on joint position sense (JPS) accuracy and gait characteristics. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between lower limb JPS different aspects pattern including asymmetry variability spatiotemporal coordination in individuals with bilateral KOA. In cross-sectional study, 43 KOA (mild moderate) were measured. Participants’ patterns during treadmill walking self-selected comfortable speed assessed. correlations...
Medical costs (MCs) represent a significant burden on household finances and often lead to economic challenges. This study analyzed the data of 8,993 Iranian households from 2021 collected by Statistical Center. Using marginalized two-part model (MTP) with lognormal gamma distributions, relationship between MCs factors such as age, gender, education, characteristics was examined. A two-level structure applied account for heterogeneity across provinces, analyzes performed using R software....
Vitamin D and zinc are important components of nutritional immunity. This study compared the serum concentrations 25-hydroxyvitamin (25(OH)D) in COVID-19 outpatients with those potentially non-infected participants. The association clinical symptoms vitamin status was also examined. A checklist laboratory examination were applied to collect data a cross-sectional conducted on 53 infected Serum concentration 25(OH)D not significantly lower patients moderate illness (19 ± 12 ng/mL) than...
BackgroundSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 was first reported in December 2019 and it has spread globally ever since.
