An epizootic of myxomatosis involved 26 rabbitries in western Oregon. Major clinical signs were inflammation and edema of the eyelids, conjunctiva, and anogenital area. Mortality ranged from 20 to 50%. On histologic examination, intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies were readily apparent in the
A histopathologic study of Anisakis sp. larvae in Pacific herring (Clupea harengus pallasi) is presented. Tissue alterations included mechanical compression of the pancreas and liver, granulomatous inflammation and necrosis of the liver, and trauma to the muscularis externa of the pyloric caeca.
A 2-yr retrospective survey (1995-1998) of 63 adult raccoons (Procyon lotor) from Oregon, northwestern United States, was conducted by histopathological examination of various tissues. An overall prevalence of capillariasis was recorded in 52% of the raccoons. Highest prevalence of nematodes (29/30,
BACKGROUND
TNF alpha inhibitor (TNFAI) therapy has been associated with inflammatory neurological syndromes.
OBJECTIVE
To present 10 new cases of TNFAI associated neurological disease and a review of the literature.
METHODS
The design and methods were based on case series collected from Oregon
Ocular inflammation can arise in the form of conjunctivitis, uveitis, episcleritis and scleritis. The uveitides can be subdivided by anatomical location into anterior and posterior uveitis or categorized by location of inflammation, e.g., iritis, pars planitis or iridocyclitis. Multiple drugs have
This study was to explore a novel IL-33/ST2/IL-9/IL-9R signaling pathway that disrupts ocular surface barrier and amplifies allergic inflammation. Two murine models of experimental allergic conjunctivitis (EAC) and IL-9 topical challenge in wild type Balb/c and ST2-/- mice, and two
OBJECTIVE
We investigated the relationship between Staphylococcus aureus colonization and the use of immunosuppressive therapies in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs).
METHODS
We prospectively enrolled IMID patients from the rheumatology and dermatology departments of Oregon
UNASSIGNED
To investigate the side effects of preservative-free 0.005% latanoprost on the murine ocular surface.
UNASSIGNED
We applied 0.005% latanoprost or vehicle in mice in two patterns for 14 to 28 days. Tear production was measured by phenol red cotton test, and corneal epithelial barrier
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the clinical usefulness of methotrexate for patients with non-infectious orbital inflammatory disease who fail to respond to systemic corticosteroids and/or orbital irradiation.
METHODS
The medical records of patients with non-infectious orbital inflammatory disease who were
BACKGROUND
Recent evidence suggests that differential stress and immune responses may play a role in the sex/gender disparity for pain. Pain pathology and psychological stress are both associated with elevated levels of proinflammatory cytokines.
OBJECTIVE
This pilot study tested a negative imaginal
Due to the high prevalence of nutrient deficiencies in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), routine monitoring of nutrient status and supplementation are recommended.This preliminary study was implemented to prospectively identify potential Folic acid has been frequently exploited to target attached drugs to cells that overexpress a folate receptor (FR). Unfortunately, folic acid and folate-linked drugs bind equally well to both major isoforms of the FR-that is, FR-α, which is primarily expressed on malignant cells, and FR-β, which is
In 2006, a pathogenic variant of the common intestinal organism Blastocystis was discovered in patients who were experiencing chronic gastrointestinal symptoms. Most species of Blastocystis inhabit humans with no symptoms. The discovery of a pathogenic variant of Blastocystis is significant, because
UNASSIGNED
Although a variety of well-characterized diseases, such as sarcoidosis and granulomatosis with polyangiitis, affect the lacrimal gland, many patients with dacryoadenitis are diagnosed as having nonspecific orbital inflammation (NSOI) on the basis of histology and systemic disease
OBJECTIVE
Hearing loss in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) graduates range from 2% to 15% compared to 0.3% in full-term births, and the etiology of this discrepancy remains unknown. The majority of NICU admissions receive potentially ototoxic aminoglycoside therapy, such as gentamicin, for
