albumin/fever

Hypoalbuminemia frequently occurs in Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS), but clinical significance of hypoalbuminemia is not well known. This study was designed to evaluate hypoalbuminemia as a marker of severity of disease in patients with HFRS. We evaluated the relationship between the

OBJECTIVE To analyse the correlation between coagulation tests (PT APTT fibrinogen, D-dimer) and albumin with AT-II in DHF as well to find the formula to calculate AT-III with the parameter of coagulation tests and albumin. METHODS A descriptive-correlative cross sectional study was conducted to 49

We developed a novel hyperthermia material for cancer therapy, cationic albumin-conjugated magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs), which absorb the energy of an alternating magnetic field and convert it into heat. MNPs of about 10 nm were synthesised through co-precipitation, and citric acid was used to

The aim of this study was to determine the diagnostic and prognostic significance of ischemia modified albumin (IMA) levels in patients with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF). This retrospective study was conducted with patients with CCHF. IMA levels in patients with CCHF were determined using

A thiomersal-free and also an albumin-free tick-borne encephalitis-vaccine (TBE-vaccine) was developed. This vaccine was approved by the Austrian health authorities in the year 2000. Contrary to previous experience, 779 cases of fever attacks occurred following the first vaccination of children

Malignant gliomas remain refractory to several therapeutic approaches and the requirement for novel treatment modalities is critical to combat this disease. Etoposide is a topoisomerase-II inhibitor, which promotes DNA damage and apoptosis of cancer cells. In this study, we prepared albumin with

BACKGROUND Ischaemia-modified albumin, a novel biochemical marker for tissue ischaemia, was found to be associated with oxidative stress. The purpose of this study was to assess the role of ischaemia-modified albumin in the diagnosis of acute rheumatic fever and also to evaluate the

1. Intraventricular injection of rabbit and human serum albumin, and rabbit endogenous pyrogen produced dose-dependent fevers in rabbits. The pyrogenicity of albumin was less than one-twentieth of the pyrogenicity of endogenous pyrogen. 2. Fevers induced by ventricular albumin were significantly

Amyloidosis of the kidney is the most threatening complication in familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), and colchicine has been shown to reduce its occurrence. In the preclinical stage of kidney amyloidosis, no proteinuria is observed by the standard Albustix method. However, whether these patients

1. Bovine serum albumin injected into conscious rabbits produced a dose-dependent fever of short latency and duration of at least 2 1/2 hr. 2. The fever was not due to contamination by other proteins nor due to contamination by bacterial endotoxin. 3. The fever following albumin injection had

Although the involvement of blood-borne PGE2 in fever has been hypothesized by several authors and has substantial experimental support, the current literature often rejects this hypothesis because several attempts to induce fever by a peripheral PGE2 failed. However, it is usually ignored that the

Antibodies to bovine serum albumin were detected in swine sera by use of an immunoblotting technique. Such sera had false-positive reactions, as determined by results of African swine fever virus serodiagnostic techniques when bovine serum albumin was a contaminant in the soluble cytoplasmic antigen

OBJECTIVE To investigate ischemia modified albumin (IMA) levels in children with acute rheumatic fever (ARF) before and after therapy and compare them with those of controls. METHODS Twenty seven patients with ARF and 18 healthy, age and sex matched children were included in the study. The diagnosis

This study examined plasma- and eosinophil-derived products in nasal lavage fluids obtained from patients with hay fever during natural allergen exposure. Nine patients with strictly seasonal allergic rhinitis and five normal, nonallergic subjects (control group) were studied. Nasal lavages were

BACKGROUND We studied the value of routine biochemical variables albumin, C-reactive protein (CRP) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) to improve prediction and monitoring of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) severity in the intensive care unit. METHODS In 101 critically ill patients, with or
