In 11 cases with anti-Rh-complicated pregnancies, i.e. ascites at 21/25 weeks and fetal hydrops at delivery, we detected the presence of IgG/placental alkaline phosphatase complexes in the maternal serum.
Benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) is a well-known environmental contaminant and carcinogen. Its sources include tobacco smoke, automobile exhaust, forest fire, and other combustion processes. Farnesol, an active principle of Vachellia farnesiana and other aromatic plants, possesses preventive properties
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to examine the association of neuro-otological examination, blood test, and scoring questionnaire data with treatment-resistant intractability in idiopathic benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) patients.
METHODS
We experienced 1520 successive
Micro-blood vessels (MBVs), located in the area of edema, were studied in cat brain at various time intervals (1 h, 24 h, 7 days) after cold-lesion injury. Both cold-injured and adjacent gyri were examined for blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability to i. v. injected horseradish peroxidase (HRP) with
BACKGROUND
TAFRO syndrome, which was first reported in 2010 in Japan, is a relatively rare disease characterized by thrombocytopenia, anasarca, fever, renal impairment, reticulin fibrosis, and organomegaly. Although this disease is considered similar to multicentric Castleman disease, some of the
Parvovirus B19 can be transmitted transplacentally from the infected mother to the fetus during pregnancy, and hydrops fetalis, abortion, or stillbirth can result. In our study we explored the use of chemiluminescence in situ hybridization to detect B19 DNA on cord blood cells, amniotic fluid cells,
This study examined the morphology and immunocytochemical staining patterns of distribution of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-HCG), human placental lactogen (HPL), placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP), and pregnancy-specific beta-1 glycoprotein (SP1) in 13 third-trimester placentas
The authors report a case of unsuspected fetal storage disorder initially diagnosed by placental examination performed because of a transient ascites at 28 weeks of gestation. At birth mild dysmorphic features and gradual neurological deterioration were observed. Highly elevated alkaline phosphatase
The response to teriparatide has been described in very few cases of hypophosphatasia (HPP). In this cross-sectional study, we report the prevalence of symptomatic bone marrow edema (BME) and fracture healing complications in a large cohort of childhood and adult HPP patients and discuss the results
The placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) is a marker enzyme of alveolar type I cells. To evaluate the damages of alveolar type I cells and its relations with the development of acute lung injury caused by smoke inhalation, the present study was designed to observe the dynamic changes in PLAP
As already found in other various diseases, a macromolecular alkaline phosphatase complex (HMW-AP) was also found in sera of two severe Rhesus-incompatible pregnancies complicated by ascites and fetal hydrops at delivery. This atypical complex was detected and isolated by agarose gel
Intratracheal (i.t.) administration of protein synthesis inhibitors produced pulmonary edema. Of those inhibitors studied, dactinomycin (act. D) was the most potent. Severity of lung damage due to act. D was dose- and almost age-related. Maximal intensity of pulmonary edema was reached on the 3rd
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was determined in 255 amniotic fluid samples collected by amniocentesis between 15 and 39 weeks of gestation. The samples were originally used for chromosomal analysis and/or alpha-fetoprotein measurements. The mean ALP activity in early amniotic fluid from
We describe an elderly woman who developed remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema (RS3PE). In addition to typical findings, she had increased alkaline phosphatase; and investigations revealed metastatic gastric carcinoma. The literature relating to RS3PE in association with
Three premature infants with zinc deficiency who had an unusual presentation with generalized edema and hypoproteinemia between 5 and 9 weeks of age are described. The infants were fed their own mother's milk, supplemented with a proprietary formula after the first 2 to 3 weeks of life. None of the
