The authors describe the evidencing of the O157H7 E. coli serotype--an enterohaemorrhagic strain of E. coli--for the first time in our country. This germ is incriminated in haemorrhagic enteritis of children and adults, accompanied or not by an uremic haemolytic syndrome. A total of 717 strains were
Photocrosslinkable chitosan (Az-CH-LA) contains lactose moieties and photoreactive azide groups, and its viscous solution forms an insoluble hydrogel on exposure to UV irradiation. We previously developed an emergency hemostatic kit using the Az-CH-LA solution, calcium alginate, and a UV irradiation
OBJECTIVE
To compare vaginally administered misoprostol to rectally administered misoprostol and placebo in a prospective randomized placebo-controlled study.
METHODS
One hundred and fifty women with singleton vaginal deliveries were randomized (50 women in each arm) to receive 400-microg
The effectiveness of three drugs in controlling prolonged bleeding in the first year of NORPLANT implants use was tested. The drugs were levonorgestrel (L-Ng, 0.03 mg twice a day for 20 days), ethinylestradiol (EE, 0.05 mg per day for 20 days) and ibuprofen (Ib, 800 mg three times a day for 5 days)
OBJECTIVE
To compare rectally administered misoprostol to intravenously administered oxytocin for the management of third-stage labor.
METHODS
Subjects were randomized to receive two, 200-microg misoprostol tablets rectally (study medication) plus 2 mL saline in Ringer's lactate intravenously or two
Two trials were conducted to determine the effect of lactose on performance, bone integrity and certain blood constituents in postweaning rats and swine. The effect of lactose on calcium and phosphorus and percentage ash content of the small intestine was also determined. In both trials, average
To evaluate the effect of frankincense (Boswellia serrata, oleoresin) and ginger (Zingiber officinale, rhizoma) as complementary treatments for heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) among women of reproductive age.Randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical OBJECTIVE
In this study, we examined the effects of lactose on long-term high-fat-diet-induced obesity in rats.
METHODS
A total of 112 Sprague-Dawley strain female rats (6 weeks old) were divided into four groups: a basic control diet group (Cont), 10% lactose diet group (Lac), high-fat diet group
The effects on hemostasis of several commonly used drugs previously described as inhibiting platelet function were evaluated in a randomized, double-blind study of 54 normal volunteers. The subjects were each given a single dose of aspirin, chlorpromazine, glyceryl guaiacolate, diphenhydramine,
Escherichia coli serotype O157:H7 is a recently recognized human pathogen associated with hemorrhagic colitis. Unlike most E. coli strains, E. coli O157:H7 does not ferment sorbitol. Therefore, the efficacy of MacConkey agar containing sorbitol (SMAC medium) instead of lactose as a differential
Maxadilan is a vasodilatory peptide isolated from the blood-feeding sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis. Its vasodilatory activity, estimated by the formation of erythema on rabbit skin, is greater than those of calcitonin gene-related peptide, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide and pituitary adenylyl
This study evaluated the adverse effects of oral firocoxib in dogs. Six dogs (20.2+/-6.3 kg) were studied. Values for complete blood count (CBC), serum urea, creatinine, alanine transaminase, alanine phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, occult blood in feces, platelet aggregation, and buccal
The effects of Nimodipine on the global and regional cerebral blood flow were studied in 42 patients with cerebrovascular disorders. In 25 patients with focal deficits such as transitory ischemic attack (TIA), prolonged reversible ischemic neurological deficit (PRIND), and minor stroke due to
BACKGROUND
Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic condition of the gastrointestinal tract, comprising mainly Crohn disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Both of them are frequently encountered in children, being multifactorial conditions, with an unclear etiology.
UNASSIGNED
We present 4 cases
BACKGROUND
Potentized antimony is traditionally used in anthroposophic medicine to enhance hemostasis in bleeding disorders, but evidence of its effectiveness is scarce. On the other hand, non-toxic and economic additional therapeutic options for hemostatic disorders are desirable.
OBJECTIVE
We
