A comparison of four fibrosis indexes in chronic HCV: Development of new fibrosis-cirrhosis index (FCI)
Waqar Ahmad,Bushra Ijaz,Fouzia T Javed,Sana Gull,Humaira Kausar,Muhammad Sarwar,Sultan Asad,Imran Shahid,Aleena Sumrin,Saba Khaliq,Shah Jahan,Asim Pervaiz,Sajida Hassan +12 more
TL;DR: The fibrosis-cirrhosis index (FCI) accurately predicted fibrosis stages in HCV infected patients and seems more efficient than frequently used serum indexes.
Journal ArticleDOI
HCV genotype distribution and possible transmission risks in Lahore, Pakistan
Waqar Ahmad,Bushra Ijaz,Fouzia T Javed,Shah Jahan,Imran Shahid,Fawad Mumtaz Khan,Sajida Hassan +6 more
TL;DR: An increase in genotypes 1a and 4a suggest migration of people, possibly from Balochistan and the northern war-zone area, and government should focus on public education regarding infection routes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Moringa rivae leaf extracts attenuate Complete Freund’s adjuvant-induced arthritis in Wistar rats via modulation of inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers
Ammara Saleem,Mohammad Saleem,Mohammad Saleem,Muhammad Furqan Akhtar,Muhammad Shahzad,Shah Jahan +5 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided of the anti-arthritic potential of M. rivae extracts in chronic polyarthritis model as treatment with the plant extracts significantly restored arthritic index, change in the body weight and immune organ weight, and the histopathological indices.
Journal ArticleDOI
A brief review on molecular, genetic and imaging techniques for HCV fibrosis evaluation
Waqar Ahmad,Bushra Ijaz,Sana Gull,Sultan Asad,Saba Khaliq,Shah Jahan,Muhammad Sarwar,Humera Kausar,Aleena Sumrin,Imran Shahid,Sajida Hassan +10 more
TL;DR: Non-invasive serum markers for HCV, FibroTest, Forn's Index, Fibrometer and HepaScore have high five-year predictive value but are not comparable to liver biopsy and genetic marker in combination of imaging technique may be the better non invasive diagnostic method in future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ephedra gerardiana aqueous ethanolic extract and fractions attenuate Freund Complete Adjuvant induced arthritis in Sprague Dawley rats by downregulating PGE2, COX2, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, NF-kB and upregulating IL-4 and IL-10.
TL;DR: The results indicate that EG extract and fractions significantly attenuated adjuvant arthritis in rats by decreasing the levels of aforementioned pro-inflammatory and increasing the Levels of anti-inflammatory mediators, suggesting that Ephedra gerardiana aerial parts might be used as a therapeutic agent for treating human arthritis.
