Neuromuscular respiratory failure is not considered to be a clinical feature of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). We present 4 patients with CIDP who required respiratory assistance and mechanical ventilation. Two patients needed emergent intubation and one patient lapsed in
Activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical system and EEG characteristics of the sleep-wake cycle were studied on adult male Wistar rats with acute inflammation produced by bacterial lipopolysaccharide in a dose of 250 microg/100 g body weight. Blood concentrations of adrenocorticotropic
In order to reveal prolactin (Prl) effect on the enzymatic activity of the thyroid follicular cells at a subcutaneous inflammation, 2 series of experiments have been performed on 100 non-inbred male rats with body mass of 150-170 g. In order to produce the inflammation, under ether narcosis
A 34-year-old women without history of seizures was admitted to our hospital because of the diminished responsiveness and the repeated blinking for two days. Her past history showed neither surgery nor inflammation of the thyroid gland. General physical examination was normal. On neurological
Levamisole is a common adulterant in cocaine and has previously been associated with a variety of serious complications including multifocal inflammatory leukoencephalopathy (MIL). There have been several reports of MIL in patients taking cocaine and, though suspected, the presence of levamisole was
Ethanol is proposed to exert its pharmacological effects by increasing membrane fluidity. Support for this hypothesis comes from strong correlations between in vitro effects of ethanol and pharmacological effects and genetic variation seen in vivo. Because arachidonate acid (AA) cascade is a
The ecotoxicity of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) diclofenac, ibuprofen, naproxen, and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) has been evaluated using acute Daphnia and algal tests. Toxicities were relatively low, with half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) values obtained using Daphnia
The protocols of conventional (total intravenous narcosis) and innovation antinociceptive anesthesiological support of interventions, made for an acute destructive pancreatitis and infected pancreonecrosis, are adduced. There was estimated the antiinflammatory capacity of the anesthesiological
Results of the use of antibiotics for prevention and treatment of different maxillo-facial pathology in maxillo-facial surgery are presented. Antibiotics for prevention were employed in 185 patients and the results were compared with 165 patients serving as control group. For the prevention of
The purpose of the case-study was to evaluate the efficiency of non-steroid antiinflammatory drugs (NAD) for postoperative analgesia in children after small-scope surgical interventions. Diclofenac, 1 mg/kg per day administered as rectal suppositories or intramuscular injections after initial
Sodium, the most important extracellular fluid electrolyte, is the focus of several homeostatic mechanisms that regulate fluid and electrolyte balance. Hyponatremia is a common electrolyte abnormality caused by an actual sodium deficiency or extracellular compartment fluid excess. Clinical symptoms
Marked lateral ventricular enlargement associated with atrophic cerebral cortex and periventricular encephalitis is described in a 2-month-old fox affected by disorientation, generalized ataxia, difficulty in walking, circling, and blindness. Clinical conditions progressed to stupor and spontaneous
The over notion, "acute gallbladder" includes the acute cholecystitis, also the gallbladder dropsy, the persistent colicky pain of the impaction, the complications of acute cholecystitis like the cholecystoempyema an necrotising the calculous impaction inflammation. In the last cases an emergency
1-Propoxy-2-propanol, a widely used industrial chemical, was found to have acute peroral LD50 values in the rat of 4.92 ml/kg (males) and 2.83 ml/kg (females), with the signs of systemic toxicity being principally related to narcosis. Acute percutaneous LD50 values in the rabbit (24-hr occluded)
