Prevention of hepatitis B (HBV) infection is particularly important for patients with inflammatory bowel disease because of risks of HBV reactivation on immunosuppressive therapies. However, immune responses to standard HBV vaccination regimens are suboptimal. Chaparro et al. compared immune
Results of treatment of 9 patients (3 male, 6 female) with acute omentitis are analyzed. Omentitis was primary in 8 patients, and secondary -- in 1 patient. Right-sided abdominal localization of pains was the cause of incorrect entrance diagnosis (acute appendicitis and acute cholecystitis). All the
Trochanteric bursitis, also known as "greater trochanter pain syndrome", is a frequent and often under-diagnosed cause of pain in the lateral hip region. The diagnosis is essentially based on the clinical examination; however various forms of imaging may be useful to confirm the diagnosis and
Patients who have lateral hip pain historically have been diagnosed with trochanteric bursitis and treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, corticosteroid injections, and physical therapy. Although this strategy is effective for most patients, a substantial number of patients
A rare case of elastofibroma developing in the greater omentum of a 76 years old woman was reported. The greater omentum was thickened in a plate-like shape to a size of 24 X 15 X 2 cm, and a firm mass as large as 5 X 4 X 3 cm was formed in a portion of the omentum. Granulomatous inflammation
The authors' experience with the treatment of 46 patients with secondary and primary omentitis is presented. Operations were performed in all the children. Resection of the altered portion of the omentum was fulfilled in primary omentitis. Draining operations were performed in cases with secondary
In order to test the hypothesis that ozone (O3)-induced changes in lung function and respiratory tract injury/inflammation are greater in subjects with asthma than in normal subjects, we exposed 18 asthmatic subjects, on separate days, to O3 (0.2 ppm) and filtered air for 4 h during exercise.
The brain influences immune function through a powerful neural reflex that suppresses the release of a key pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor α, after immune challenge. The efferent motor pathway of this reflex is in the splanchnic nerves, not the vagi. This reflex regulates
