PERSPECTIVES AND A CASE STUDY OF INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASES

Cheyletiella may be a source of re-infestation. Most owners were urged to clean the cages, although this cleaning could only be verified in a few cases (8/53). Five of the rabbits in Group 1 were also concurrently bathed. These treatments were made both in the treatment[r]

4.2 Mechanisms of action
Thus far, the mechanisms driving chronic cough have been elusive. Models of excessive cough such as those reviewed above are useful for determining these mechanisms, and add to our understanding of the disease process. There is some evidence t[r]

To investigate the unique features of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in children, we wanted to identify whether there might be a strong correlation between the disease phenotype and its prognosis at various ages in paediatric patients.

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), a member of the HDAC enzymes, has been reported to play substantial roles in many cellular processes. Evidence shows that deregulation of HDAC6 may be involved in the progression of some cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, and inflammatory disorders.

Invasive S. pyogenes diseases are uncommon, serious infections with high case fatality rates (CFR). There are few publications on this subject in the field of pediatrics. This study aimed at characterizing clinical and laboratory aspects of this disease in Chinese children.

9.3 Modulation of apoptosis
Apoptotic pathways have recently garnered considerable attention in the development of cancer treatment strategies, and studies have focused on key regulatory points in these pathways. In preclinical and clinical investigations, pro-apoptot[r]

Evidence is growing that both short- and long-term physical exercise have the potential to positively impact on the physiological system related to inflammatory indices, though, such patterns are unknown for pediatric patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

The existence of multiple autoimmune disorders in diabetics may indicate underlying primary defects of immune regulation. The study aims at estimation of defects of CD4+ CD25+high cells among diabetic children with multiple autoimmune manifestations, and identification of disease characteristics in[r]

The study was conducted to assess the awareness of zoonotic diseases among livestock farmers in Budgam district of Kashmir valley.320 respondents were selected randomly and interviewed with a pretested questionnaire, which contained both open and close ended questions on different aspects of zoonoti[r]

Inclusion criteria
Only cases for which appropriate histological sections were available for inspection were considered for this study. These had to include brain and at least two of the following tissues: crop, proventriculus, ventriculus. The tissue-types examined for each b[r]

The present case study reports a case of ascites in a four month bully female pup, which was presented with the history of progressive abdominal distension, inappetance and weakness. Further detailed clinical examination and haemato-biochemical study confirmed the ascites of hepatic origin. Treatmen[r]

This study aims at investigating three main features: degree of directness, formality and politeness, of an intercultural communication study “Small talk between an American and a Vietnamese”. It is designed as a case study to examine communication between individuals of different cultures: how comm[r]

and peripheral edema. Cardiac auscultation may reveal a S3 gallop. Ventricular dysrhythmias or complete atrioventricular blockade occur in a minority of patients but may be rapidly fatal.
Diagnosis: Acute myocarditis rema[r]

Idiopathic Inflammatory Bowel Disease
The illnesses in this category, which include Crohn's disease and chronic ulcerative colitis, are among the most common organic causes of chronic diarrhea
in adults and range in severity from mild to fulminant[r]
