[Infectious diseases and various infections are the major causes of morbidity and mortality in developing as well as in industrialised countries. Despite the advances in the past decades in our understanding of microbes, efficient treatment of diseases and preventive approaches, more than 13 million people die every year due to infectious diseases. In the past two decades, more and more new pathogens and infections diseases have been emerging and old diseases that were almost forgotten have... tovább »
[The structure and function of arteries change throughout one’s lifetime. The most important changes include lumenal dilation, diffuse intimal and medial thickening, increased stiffness, reduced compliance of central arteries and endothelial dysfunction. Arterial stiffness, an increased pulse wave velocity (PWV) and an increased carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) are independent predictors of cardiovascular events. The early vascular aging (EVA) could help clinicians to determine the... tovább »
[Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of visual impairment worldwide. It affects nearly half of patients with diabetes and its severity increases with the progress of diabetes. Glycotoxicity, lipotoxicity and hypertension are the main risk factors for the development of DR. The control of glucose homeostasis and blood pressure are the main noninvasive approaches that might have a role in the treatment of this condition. On the basis of new studies, RAS inhibitors and fenofibrate are... tovább »
[Administration of the alpha-glucosidase enzyme inhibitor acarbose leads to a prolonged absorption of carbohydrates, which has a smoothing effect on blood glucose excursions, and results in a more even daily blood glucose profile. The glucose lowering effect is mainly due to the reduction of postprandial blood glucose levels. Non-glycaemic effects of acarbose, including those on blood pressure, lipids and the coagulation system are also clearly beneficial. According to the available data, the... tovább »
[As the prevalence of pollen allergy is increasing, the incidence of oral allergy syndrome is becoming more frequent. We expect, therefore, an increasing incidence of this syndrome among in children as well. The prevalence of oral allergy syndrome among adults with birch pollen allergy is estimated to be 20-70%. The prevalence of the disease among children is currently unknown. The aims of our study were to identify the characteristics of oral allergy syndrome in children and to assess its... tovább »
[Due to the prevalence and significant mortality of peripheral vascular diseases, their treatment requires special attention. PATIENTS - We examined 45 patients awaiting vascular surgery at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery at Semmelweis University. RESULTS - We have demonstrated that the routine administration of acetylsalicylic acid was ineffective in the majority (60%) of patients, especially in the at-risk groups. In contrast, clopidogrel therapy was ineffective in only 11% of... tovább »
[With the advent of holistic medicine in the second half of the 20th century, the range of behavioural patterns that are expected from healthcare workers has also changed. Nowadays, numerous references in literature put emphasis on the potential positive impact of personal interactions between physician and patient on the healing process and overall well-being of patients. However, it does not come naturally to all workers with caring professions to seek personal interactions with their... tovább »
