TLDR
Salem and Zahran as discussed by the authors investigated the role of VCAM-1 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and its relation to disease activity, oxidative stress and systemic inflammation.Abstract:
Salem and Zahran[1][1] conducted a cross sectional study investigating the role of VCAM-1 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), its relation to disease activity, oxidative stress and systemic inflammation.[1][1] They studied 50 patients with early newly diagnosed RA (less than 6 month durationread more
