Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia (PIL) is a rare disorder of unknown etiology characterized by diffuse or localized dilation and eventual rupture of the enteric lymphatic vessels in mucosa, submucosa, and/or subserosa. Lymph, rich in all kinds of proteins and lymphocytes, leaks into the
A 33-year-old woman noticed recurrent and sudden attacks of subcutaneous swelling of the extremities and face since the age of 4 years. Sometimes the attacks involved colicky abdominal pain. Her mother and younger sister had episodes of recurrent swelling of the extremities as well. Complement
Bacillus anthracis infections are frequently associated with severe and often irreversible hypotensive shock despite appropriate antibiotics and aggressive hemodynamic and pulmonary support. Based on the observations that the anthrax secreted proteins-protective antigen (PA), lethal factor (LF), and
Agonists of the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors, like fingolimod (FTY720), are a novel class of immunomodulators. Administration of these compounds prevents the egress of lymphocytes from primary and secondary lymphoid organs causing peripheral blood lymphopenia. Although it is well
A 71-year-old man who had a history of open chest surgery was admitted due to anasarca and bilateral pleural effusions. Although imaging modalities could not demonstrate any pericardial abnormalities, right-sided cardiac catheterization revealed 'dip and plateau' in diastolic pressure waveform. He
Corticosteroids are commonly used to alleviate symptoms from cerebral vasogenic edema in glioblastoma (GBM) patients. This study evaluated the impact of overall corticosteroid exposure during chemoradiotherapy (CRT) on acute severe lymphopenia (ASL) and survival outcomes of GBM Background: Lymphopenia frequently occurs after concomitant chemoradiation (CCRT) in patients with glioblastoma (GBM) and is associated with worse overall survival (OS). A few studies have tried to identify risk factors for lymphopenia;
1. The hypothesis of a pro-inflammatory activity in lymphocytes related to the development of nonimmune acute inflammation was tested in leucopenic rats injected subcutaneously with various stimuli representing different pharmacological classes of paw edema-inducing agents into the subplantar area
OBJECTIVE
To describe the clinical course of patients with congenital chylothorax focusing on infectious complications. Congenital chylothorax is a common manifestation of non-immune hydrops fetalis (NIHF). The drainage of chyle leads to loss of cellular and plasmatic factors that influence the
Intestinal lymphangiectasia (IL) is a rare disease characterized by dilatation of intestinal lymphatics. It can be classified as primary or secondary according to the underlying etiology. The clinical presentations of IL are pitting edema, chylous ascites, pleural effusion, acute appendicitis,
BACKGROUND Intestinal lymphangiectasia (IL) is a rare disease characterized by a dilatation of the intestinal lymphatics and loss of lymph fluid into the gastrointestinal tract leading to hypoproteinemia, edema, lymphocytopenia, hypogammaglobinemia, and immunological abnormalities. Iron, calcium,
An adult male chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera) presented with severe lethargy and tachypnea; the physical examination was otherwise unremarkable. Due to the animal's clinical condition, it was submitted for necropsy but died immediately prior to euthanasia. Clinicopathologic findings included
The intraplantar injection of Bothrops jararaca venom (Bjv) caused an edematogenic response in the rat which was of rapid onset, and reached a peak in about 60 min. The response was markedly attenuated in animals rendered leucopenic by the administration of amethopterin. This inhibition was
Intestinal lymphangiectasia (IL) is a potentially fatal disorder of the lymphatic system if it is not recognized and proper treatment initiated. The disease is characterized by lymphocytopenia, peripheral edema, and hypoalbuminemia. Because IL is a rare disease, the symptoms, diagnostic workup, and
We report the ophthalmological and laboratory findings of 6 patients who, after influenza vaccination, were affected by oculorespiratory syndrome (ORS), complaining of red eyes, photophobia, blurred vision, palpebral edema, ocular pain and itching, and conjunctival secretions. The conjunctivae were
