Albuminemia, calcemia, phosphoremia and alcaline phosphatasemia were measured in three groups of 52 subjects each : rheumatoid arthrits, inflammatory rheumatisms other than rheumatoid arthritis and lumbarthrosics serving as a reference group. Calcemia and albuminemia were significantly lower in
A study was made of the genetic variants (isoenzymes, phenotypes) of acid erythrocytic phosphatase (AcP) in 120 patients with rheumatic fever. There were 78 women and 42 men aged 16 to 57 years. The population data concerned with distribution of the AcP variants among the population of Moscow were
Liver function tests, including serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity, serum bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, serum proteins, blood ammonia levels and intravenous glucose utilization, were monitored in 50 children with acute rheumatic fever receiving anti-rheumatic doses of aspirin. There
Numerous investigators have developed monoclonal antibodies against B-cell alloantigen(s) of rheumatic fever. However, the developed monoclonals do not have the same significance in all the populations. We have developed a battery of monoclonals against B-cell alloantigens of North Indian rheumatic
OBJECTIVE
To determine abnormalities of cholesterol metabolism in children with acute rheumatic fever (ARF).
METHODS
Cross-sectional study and prospective study.
METHODS
Pediatric ward of the Khon Kaen (Thailand) University Hospital.
METHODS
Forty-six confirmed patients with ARF (during the acute
The differentiation of pluripotent mesenchymal stem cells to mature osteoblasts is crucial for the maintenance of the adult skeleton. In rheumatic arthritis, osteoblast differentiation is impaired by the overproduction of cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‑α. It has been demonstrated that TNF-α is
Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) or acute rheumatic fever (ARF) develops as a consequence of an exaggerated immune response to Group A beta haemolytic streptococci causing pharyngitis. The molecular mimicry appears between human cardiac myosin and M protein of group A streptococcal membranes. The
The authors measured the activities of four enzymes (L.D.H., acid phosphatase, B glucuronidase, and lysozyme) and the contents of AMPc and GMPc in the synovial fluid in 35 patients with rheumatic disease. In those with various forms of inflammatory rheumatism, they found negative correlation between
It appears that in rheumatoid arthritis and, to a lesser extent, in the other forms of inflammatory rheumatism, the level of zinc in the blood serum is lowered, whereas synovial zinc is increased. In the synovial fluid, there is a very significant correlation between enzyme activity and the
After reviewing previous work on the subjects, the authors show that the synovial fluid in subjects with inflammatory rheumatism contained higher levels of lysozyme and of beta-glucuronidase comparable with those of the acid phosphatases and of lacto-dehydrogenase that they were interested in
