CARDIAC CHANGES IN EPILEPSY
The cardiac changes that could happen in non cardiac patients with intractable epilepsy were studied. The serum levels measurement of a novel cardiac marker namely, the Heart type fatty acid binding protein were performed and indicated an increase in both the ictal and the inter-ictal phases, as well as changes detected at the analysis of the ictal and the inter-ictal electrocardiographic changes in such patients. Through our results we cast the light on the possibility of a sort of asymptomatic cardiac ischemia that could accompany intractable epilepsy.

THE ROLE OF VIRUS, GENES AND TOBACCO IN ORAL CANCER
The prevalence of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has significantly increased over decades in several countries and human papilloma virus (HPV) has been indicated as one of the underlying causes. This suggests that HPV plays a role in the early stages of carcinogenesis but is not a requisite for the maintenance and progression of malignant state. p53 is a tumor suppressor gene that checks the cell and promotes apoptosis and cell repair that can be deactivated by mutations and a viral interaction leading to cancer and individuals with particular polymorphic variant of p53 is more susceptible to HPV-induced carcinogenesis. The present study has been carried out to detect and correlate p53 polymorphism/mutation, HPV DNA in the biopsy samples of oral cancer patients who had tobacco habits.

HEMOGLOBINA FANNIN-LUBBOCK I Y II, DOS VARIANTES QUE COMPARTEN UNA MUTACIÓN
Existen dos tipos de hemoglobina Fannin-Lubbock I y II: la primera, reportada en dos familias mexicano-estadounidenses, cuatro familias independientes de origen mexicano y en una familia india, las cuales pudieron haber surgido por eventos mutacionales independientes, ya que se observaron asociadas con dos haplotipos beta diferentes, y la segunda, en individuos de origen español. En ambos casos la variante mostró inestabilidad, por lo que esta característica se atribuye a la mutación en beta119.
