Abstract
Inflammation is a condition that is closely linked to diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM), short for T2DM several different antidiabetic medications have been produced to regulate hyperglycemia, with indications that these therapies may have anti-inflammatory effects along with their glucose-lowering efficacy. Thus, this research was planned to explore the impact of antidiabetic agents on the cytokine expression levels -interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-17, and IL-37 when patients have T2DM. In this study, 168 eligible subject matter was split into two groups: 50 healthy individuals and 118 cases with T2DM, who were classified into two subgroups: 30 untreated patients and 88 patients treated with metformin-based therapy. The outcome exhibited a significant increase within HbA1c% and proinflammatory cytokines (i.e., IL-1β, IL- 6, and IL-17), whereas IL-37 decreased considerably in untreated cases with T2DM compared to those in subjects who are healthy. Furthermore, the results showed increased levels Regarding waist size, body mass index and assessment using that homeostasis model, cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein levels, and heart danger elements in untreated cases with T2DM in comparison with hygienic subjects. Notably, treated patients with T2DM revealed an ameliorative impact on HbA1c, IL-6, IL-17, IL-37, IL-1β levels and lipid profile compared with untreated patients with T2DM. Antidiabetic agents may have a beneficial activity on the inflammatory status by reducing blood glucose levels, hyperlipidemia, and proinflammatory cytokines. The anti-inflammatory activity of IL-37 can apply a potentially effective therapeutic goal in treating T2DM and its complications.

Abstract
The occurrence of worsening pulmonary function has been connected to hypothyroidism (HPO). Hesperidin (HES) was suggested to have antioxidant, anti-proliferative, and anti-inflammatory potential. Our study's objective was to determine whether HES could reduce carbimazole (CBZ)-induced lung injury more effectively than Eltroxin (ELT) in adult male albino rats or not. At random, 32 rats were distributed into four groups: Group I: normal control, to induce HPO, the remaining three groups were given CBZ (20 mg/kg/day) dissolved in distilled water for 1 week. They were then split up into three groups. Group II: orally administered CBZ (20 mg/kg b.w in water/day), Group III: HES (200 mg/kg/day) dissolved in 1% carboxymethyl-cellulose + CBZ treated, and Group IV: ELT (0.045 mg/kg/day) dissolved in distilled water + CBZ treated. All treatments were delivered for 12 weeks. Blood was collected to assess thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroid hormones (THs). Lung injury was evaluated based on the pulmonary content of interleukin (IL)-35, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), along with the estimation of lipid peroxidation, catalase, glutathione levels, superoxide dismutase, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). The histological, ultrastructural, and immunohistochemical study of nuclear factor Kappa-B (NF-κB) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), together with estimating the proliferation of cells using Antigen Ki-67 in lung tissue were performed. HES and ELT primarily suppressed variable lung damage mechanisms by suppressing TSH, the NF-κB/TNF-α pathway, iNOS, lipid peroxidation, Ki-67, and inflammatory mediators. On the other hand, they improved THs, antioxidant parameters, and the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. HES and ELT exhibited an ameliorative effect that was reflected in the histopathological, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural results. These results indicate that HES is a pneumoprotective agent that could be a promising treatment for oxidative stress, inflammation, and proliferation.

Abstract
A simultaneous increase in the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM), a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), has contributed to the escalation of CVD related mortalities. To date, oxidative stress and inflammation are increasingly recognized as significant drivers of cardiovascular complications in patients with diabetes. Therefore, this study aims to explore the correlation between oxidative stress, inflammation, and hematological indices in diabetic patients with CVDs. Patients were allocated into five groups: healthy controls; nondiabetic patients with myocardial infarction; diabetic patients with myocardial infarction; nondiabetic patients with heart failure; and diabetic patients with heart failure. The results revealed that the malondialdehyde levels were increased; whereas superoxide dismutase enzyme activities were markedly reduced in all CVD groups compared with those of healthy controls. Although the mRNA expression levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-18, and IL-38 were significantly increased, those of the anti-inflammatory cytokine, IL-35, have been reduced in all CVD groups compared with healthy controls. Regarding hematological indices, hematocrit, red blood cell distribution width, mean platelet (PLT) volume, plateletcrit, PLT distribution width, leukocyte count, and PLT-to-lymphocyte and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios were markedly increased in the diabetic and nondiabetic CVD groups compared with those of the healthy controls. Oxidative stress and cytokine biomarkers may play a significant role in the complications of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Moreover, hematological indices are particularly sensitive to systemic inflammatory changes and are novel markers for the early detection of diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is caused by a new coronavirus family member, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and is linked with many disease manifestations in multiple organ systems on top of pulmonary manifestations. COVID-19 is also accompanied by several cardiovascular pathologies including myocarditis, acute myocardial infarction, stress cardiomyopathy, arterial and venous thromboembolism, pericarditis, and arrhythmias. The pathophysiological mechanisms explaining these clinical symptoms are multifactorial including systemic inflammation (cytokine storm), coagulopathy, direct viral invasion through angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, hypoxemia, electrolyte imbalance, and fever. Several case reports have shown the development of an unusual cardiovascular event after receiving SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. The current article aimed to review cardiovascular involvement in the COVID-19 pandemic with respect to clinical features, pathogenesis, long-term effects, and the adverse effects of treatments and vaccines based on the latest evidence.

Abstract
Virological responses after hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment may alleviate liver disease and extra-hepatic manifestations. Our study aims to explore the impact of HCV eradication on the glycemic status, insulin resistance, cytokine production, and insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 and 2 gene expression levels in HCV-hyperglycemic patients. A total of 90 participants were allocated as follows: Group 1 included 30 healthy subjects as controls, and Group 2 included 60 HCV-hyperglycemic patients treated with a direct-acting antiviral (DAA) regimen and further subdivided into HCV-pre-diabetic and HCV-diabetic groups. Laboratory assays screened patients before and after treatments. Our data showed an excellent rate of virological responses in HCV groups after HCV treatment. Moreover, HCV eradication significantly ameliorated blood glucose levels and insulin resistance biomarkers in HCV-hyperglycemic patients compared with baseline values. Also, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-17, IL-23, and IL-27 levels were significantly ameliorated after viral clearance in HCV-hyperglycemic patients compared with baseline values. Similarly, IRS-1 and 2 mRNA expression levels were upregulated in these patients post-HCV treatment compared with baseline values. HCV clearance ameliorated hyperglycemia, cytokine production, and enhanced insulin sensitivity. Future researches will be needed to explore the effects of cytokines and IRS on HCV infection and treatment on a large cohort.
