    Abstract: Background: Transient elastography is very sensitive noninvasive tool to assess liver fibrosis in NAFLD patients. But it is costly and not widely available There are also seromarkers (APRI & FBI4) for ruling out significant liver fibrosis. This study intends to compare between seromakers & transient elastography result for assessment of significant... Show More

    Abstract: Background: Carcinogenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC) is influenced greatly by the canonical WNT signaling pathway. Genetically, the secreted protein Dickkopf (Dkk) family is known as an antagonist to the WNT. To clarify the role of DKK1 in the WNT signaling pathway in the colorectal carcinogenesis, we examined the DKK1 promoter methylation in CRC ... Show More
