Interleukin (IL) 10 and interferon-gamma (IFN-) levels in induced sputum supernatants of 21 tuberculosis (TB) patients at diagnosis during chemotherapy were correlated to recurrence rates. IL-10 decreased until day 60 treatment (T60), between T60 T180 it increased again 7 cases (Pattern 1) further 14 2). Follow-up 69 months was performed 20/21 cases; 6 had TB, which 5/7 (71%) Pattern 1 1/13 (7.7%) 2 (OR 30.0, 95%CI 2.19411.3, P 0.0072). This not observed for IFN-. High the end may function...
Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyposis (CRSwNP) is a disease characterized by chronic inflammation and tissue remodeling process. The process in nasal polyps has mainly been studied histology analysis. However, it limited to polyp fragment requires removal. present study aims evaluate the ability of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) depict characterize patients CRSwNP.
The botulinum toxin (BT) is US Food and Drug Administration-approved for therapeutic applications in different medical conditions. However, BT not considered an obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) therapy. OSA characterized by recurrent airway collapse during sleep, leading to intermittent hypoxia, hypercapnia, arousal. application of pharyngeal masticatory musculature can reduce its constrictive activity, attenuating the obstructions. We present first case report a 38-year-old man with severe...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an important public health issue, since epidemiological studies and observations of OSA patients have consistently shown the prevalence hypertension, type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, stroke to be higher in this population (SOMERS 2008).
Abstract Introduction Cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) is a marker of sleep instability, and neuroplasticity. Slow wave has been described as stable period, CAP can be funcional delta sleep. The aim this review was to evaluate the normative data parameters according aging process in healthy subjects. Methods Two authors independently searched databases using PRISMA guidelines through systematic meta-analysis. Subgroup analysis tests for heterogeneity were conducted. Descriptive statistics...
Abstract Introduction The sleep instability can increase the impact of several disorders. chronic rhinosinusitis leads to fragmentation, and changes in systemic inflammatory biomarkers followed by upper airway flow limitation or nasal mucosa inflammation near skull base. To evaluate effect dysruption patients with polyps using CAP analyses, this study aimed analyse these before after anti-inflammatory intranasal corticosteroids on obstruction. Methods After two months washout, thirty...
