Association between occupations and selected noncommunicable diseases: A matched case-control among Thai informal workers
CONCLUSIONS: There is a need to understand what are the key factors that increase the risk for NCDs among informal sector workers. Health promotion campaigns are needed to raise awareness among economically and social disadvantaged informal workers about the risk for NCDs. This will require collaboration between public health and the workforce, and allocation of government budgets to address the needs of these workers.PMID:34263504 | PMC:PMC8279900 | DOI:10.1002/1348-9585.12249

Activated Mast Cells Mediate Low-Grade Inflammation in Type 2 Diabetes: Interleukin-37 Could be Beneficial
Publication date: Available online 31 January 2018Source: Canadian Journal of DiabetesAuthor(s): Pio Conti, Gianpaolo Ronconi, Spyridon K. Kritas, Alessandro Caraffa, Theoharis C. TheoharidesAbstractMast cells (MCs) promote guest immune responses to parasites and play a critical role in allergic and inflammatory reactions. Once they have been activated, MCs release highly inflammatory compounds that can provoke serious pathologic signs that can lead to death. MCs generate a number of preformed, de novo synthesized compounds and inflammatory cytokine/chemokine synthesis in response to the high-affinity (Kd=10–10 M) immuno...
