Genetic markers of children asthma: predisposition to disease course variants
Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2023 Asthma is a heterogeneous and often difficult to treat condition that results in a disproportionate cost to healthcare systems. Children with severe asthma are at increased risk for adverse outcomes including medication-related side effects, life ...

Genetic predisposition of cholesterol gallstone disease
Annals of Hepatology, 2006 Gallstone disease (GSD) is the result of the interaction between genetic and environmental factors and it is a major disease cause of surgery with high costs to health systems. Worldwide prevalence varies according to the ethnic population suggesting that high prevalence of GSD in certain ethnic groups is due to the presence of genetic factors ...

Genetic Predisposition and Inflammatory Bowel Disease [PDF]
Gastroenterology Research, 2013 Published reports demonstrated finding of different susceptible mutant alleles in association with inflammatory bowel disease (CD/UC) in diseased individuals from different populations. It was then assumed that the existence of different associated mutant alleles in subjects with inflammatory bowel disease from different populations means different ...

Venous Thromboembolism in Kidney Diseases and Genetic Predisposition
Kidney Diseases, 2022 <b><i>Background:</i></b> Many renal diseases have been associated with profound clinical effects on thrombosis. To our knowledge, patients with nephrotic syndrome (NS) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) display an elevated risk of vein thrombosis, which is among the common causes of mortality in patients with renal diseases.

Genetic predisposition and the variable course of infectious diseases
Deutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2022 Contact with a pathogen is followed by variable courses of infectious disease, which are only partly explicable by classical risk factors. The susceptibility to infection is variable, as is the course of disease after infection. In this review, we discuss the extent to which this variation is due to genetic factors of the affected individual (the host).

Glutathione S-transferase T1 and M1 polymorphisms and risk of thyroid neoplasms [PDF]
Archive of Oncology, 2003 Background: In order to test the possibility of association between GSTT1 and M1 (glutathione S-transferase) null allele variant, in which the entire gene is absent, and the risk of TCO (thyroid carcinoma with cell oxyphilia), the case-control study was ...

Genetic predisposition in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease [PDF]
Clinical and Molecular Hepatology, 2017 Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease whose prevalence has reached global epidemic proportions. Although the disease is relatively benign in the early stages, when severe clinical forms, including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis and even hepatocellular carcinoma, occur, they result in worsening
