Geo-clustered chronic affinity: pathways from socio-economic disadvantages to health disparities [PDF]
Our objective was to develop and test a new concept (affinity) analogous to multimorbidity of chronic conditions for individuals at census tract level in Memphis, TN. The use of affinity will improve the surveillance of multiple chronic conditions and facilitate the design of effective interventions.

Noninfectious Manifestations and Complications of Chronic Granulomatous Disease
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), a primary immunodeficiency characterized by a deficient neutrophil oxidative burst and the inadequate killing of microbes, is well known to cause a significantly increased risk of invasive infection.

Chronic Granulomatous Disease: Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, and Genetic Basis of Disease
Chronic Granulomatous Disease is one of the classic primary immunodeficiencies of childhood. While the incidence and severity of bacterial and fungal infections have been greatly reduced in this patient population, much remains to be learned about the ...

Deep Neural Network Based Ensemble learning Algorithms for the healthcare system (diagnosis of chronic diseases) [PDF]
learning algorithms. In this paper, we review the classification algorithms used in the health care system (chronic diseases) and present the neural network-based Ensemble learning method. We briefly describe the commonly used algorithms and describe their critical properties.

Impact of chronic fetal hypoxia and inflammation on cardiac pacemaker cell development [PDF]
Chronic fetal hypoxia and infection are examples of adverse conditions during complicated pregnancy, which impact cardiac myogenesis and increase the lifetime risk of heart disease. However, the effects that chronic hypoxic or inflammatory environments exert on cardiac pacemaker cells are poorly understood.

Classically described in the group of non‐cirrhotic portal hypertension, obliterative portal venopathy (OPV) causes are still unknown. Our aim is to describe the characteristics of 43 OPV patients and potential risk factors. Clinically significant portal hypertension was found in 28% of cases. The most frequent indication for liver biopsy was elevation

Shared features of endothelial dysfunction between sepsis and its preceding risk factors (aging and chronic disease) [PDF]
Acute vascular endothelial dysfunction is a central event in the pathogenesis of sepsis,increasing vascular permeability, promoting activation of the coagulation cascade, tissue edema and compromising perfusion of vital organs. Aging and chronic diseases(hypertension,dyslipidaemia,diabetes mellitus,chronic kidney disease,cardiovascular disease ...
