AbstractWe determined the tracheo-bronchial mucociliary clearance (MCC) in order to evaluate a possible impairment of this function patients affected by Sjögren's syndrome (SS) with or without overt clinical symptoms xerotrachea. The MCC was expressed as flow rate (mdmin) and studied 22 non-smoking SS (10 pSS 12 sSS) 8 control subjects specifically adapted ventilation lung scintigraphy (VLS). group 5.9 ± 1.1 mm/min. No values were produced for 16 (8 time interval considered reduced remaining...
ABSTRACT The Mycobacterium fortuitum group of rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacteria is an uncommon cause renal infection, particularly in otherwise healthy hosts. We describe a case nephritis due to M. immunocompetent woman with clinical and radiological diagnosis tuberculosis.
Abstract The kinetics of Se uptake and toxicity to Lemna were studied over a period 14 days exposure Se(IV) or Se(VI). growth stopped immediately after 5.0 mg/L content chlorophyll phaeopigments exposed was two three times less than in the control 3 d exposure. took up rapidly within first d. along with time fitted well two-compartment hyperbolic model, which demonstrates that mechanism Se(VI) is not only through passive diffusion, but also other processes such as ion channel proteins...
HCV infection beside chronic hepatitis can induce immunological disorders with different clinical expressions such as arthritis.To study the prevalence of arthritis in HCV-Ab positive patients and verify possible correlation viral replication, hepatic damage autoimmunity imbalance.Three hundred eighty (196 M 184 F) affected by were examined 38 (10%) selected according to presence arthritis. Eight them excluded because raised before infection. Each patient, once undergone liver biopsy, was...
The antibacterial properties of catanionic surfactants based on fluorescent lactose-derivative organic salts using low-cost starting materials were investigated towards multi-drug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria.
The use of antimicrobials is essential for the aquaculture sector; however, their misuse cause concern because it could adversely affect environment and human health. Irresponsible can lead to antimicrobial resistance result in presence unwanted residues products. establishment maximum residue limits (MRLs) great importance monitoring correct use, but lack harmonized standards as well regulatory gaps aquatic products create a challenging situation, reflected import notifications related food...
