The objective of this work was to check possible additive beneficial effects of whole body hyperthermia (WBH) associated with beta-carotene (BC) supplementation in patients with AIDS. In a pilot study, 10 HIV positive patients, (8 with AIDS and 2 with AIDS related complex, ARC), after AZT or DDI
The objective of this study was to compare blood profiles of intact and mastectomized periparturient cows to discriminate those metabolic changes associated with the act of parturition from the metabolic changes caused by lactation. Mastectomized and intact cows had similar increases in plasma
BACKGROUND
The objective of the investigation was to explore in a prospective study the associations between dietary intake of fatty acids, antioxidants and hay fever manifestation in adulthood.
METHODS
Three hundred and thirty-four hay fever cases with adult onset of clinical symptoms from the
Twelve patients with recurrent polyserositis (RP, familial Mediterranean fever) on colchicine prophylaxis (1.0-2.0 mg daily) for three years or more were evaluated for the presence of gastrointestinal effects possibly attributable to the drug. Two patients had bulky stools, two others had transient
Studies covered changes in serum vitamin antioxidant content in patients with hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome male workers, in accordance with occupational activity type. Findings are that during the disease and convalescence period the drivers examined demonstrated reliably lower levels of
OBJECTIVE
To assess total serum carotene concentration in HIV-infected patients as an indicator of fat malabsorption in correlation with diarrhoea, secondary enteric infections, and blood lymphocyte subsets.
METHODS
Prospective study.
METHODS
Two referral-based tertiary care centres in Berlin,
The aim of this paper is to update with personal contributions the progress thus far accomplished in the clinical application of hyperthermia (HT) in cancer and chronic infectious diseases. The HT treatment has been successfully developed since the 1970s in cancer patients in whom it showed positive
Actual consumption of vitamins A, E, beta-carotene, ascorbic acid, thiamin, pyridoxine and main foodstuffs by recovered patients suffered from hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome has been given. Frequency analysis of foodstuffs consumption was used to study actual nourishment of recovered
In a pilot single blind study, beta-carotene (BC) supplementation produced, in ARC patients under current treatment, apparent recovery from asthenia, fever, nocturnal sweating, diarrhoea, loss in weight, and led as a result to an improvement in general health and working efficiency, but not to an
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of oxidant stress in the clinical process and pathogenesis of acute rheumatic fever (ARF).
METHODS
The study included 33 children with ARF and 20 healthy control subjects. The diagnosis of ARF was established according to the Jones
We investigated the effects of colchicine on oxidative stress and Ca²+ release in serum and polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNs) of Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) patients with attack, remission and unremission periods. Eighteen FMF patients and six age-matched healthy subjects in four groups
Scrotal hyperthermia leads to oxidative stress and apoptosis in spermatogenic cells, which subsequently causes male infertility. In this study, we examined the effects of β-carotene and/or curcumin on heat-stress- (HS-) induced testicular injuries in mice. ICR male mice (8 weeks old) were
