lactic acid/vomiting

Mutations of mitochondrial DNA are being increasingly recognized as a cause of human disease. Six unrelated children have been evaluated with cyclic vomiting syndrome and a strong maternal family history suggesting a mitochondrial DNA mutation. Manifestations suggestive of migraine were present in

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are considered as the main biogenic amine (BA) producers in fermented foods. These compounds derive from amino acid decarboxylation through microbial activities and can cause toxic effects on humans, with symptoms (headache, heart palpitations, vomiting, diarrhea)

Foodborne pathogens (FBP) represent an important threat to the consumers' health as they are able to cause different foodborne diseases. In order to eliminate the potential risk of those pathogens, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have received a great attention in the food biotechnology sector since they

This study aimed to understand the differences in clinical, epidemiological, and laboratory features between the new coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-2019) and influenza A in children. Data of 23 hospitalized children with COVID-19 (9 boys, 5.7 ± 3.8 years old) were compared with age- and sex-matched

The case of a 77-year-old male patient who complained of left upper quadrant pain and progressive vomiting. Laboratory examination showed extremely high lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH) and adult T-cell leukemia antibody (ATLA). The anatomical studies CT, MRI, US and upper GI series substantiated an

OBJECTIVE To report the first case of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) deficiency diagnosed by genetic sequencing in China, and to improve the cognition of this rare disease. METHODS The clinical and laboratory characteristics of FBPase deficiency were reviewed, and the findings of direct

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the sedation and analgesia power and security of sufentanil in intensive care unit (ICU), and to compare the effect with fentanyl. METHODS A multicenter randomized controlled trial was conducted. Critical adult patients in ICU from 11 hospitals in Henan Province from June 2011

BACKGROUND Postoperative shivering is a frequent complication of surgery in developing countries and there is no satisfying method to treat it, let alone to cure it. We studied whether intravenous amino acid (AA) infusion can cure postoperative shivering in the postanesthesia care

OBJECTIVE Symptomatic lactic acidosis requiring intensive care is a rare and severe adverse event related to the mitochondrial toxicity of the nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). METHODS We retrospectively investigated the clinical and biological features of HIV-infected

The subacute toxicity of compound 1 was investigated in rats and dogs. Compound 1 was administered orally to rats of both sexes at daily doses of 0.5, 1.0 or 2.5 g/kg for 3 months. No change attributable to the administration of compound 1 was found either in blood count or in histopathological

In newly-weaned 3-4 week old piglets (n = 29) diarrhoea (100%) and vomiting (65%) were induced by inoculation with transmissible gastroenteritis virus and enterotoxigenic E. coli strains (0(149):K91:K88ac; LT, STa and STb enterotoxin positive). This combined infection resulted in pronounced

BACKGROUND Fixed drug combination of isoniazid and rifampicin is a rare cause of poisoning even in endemic countries for tuberculosis infection. Severe poisoning can cause severe morbidity and mortality if not treated promptly. Though intravenous pyridoxine is the preferred antidote for severe

OBJECTIVE To assess the influences of continuous femoral nerve block (CFNB) and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) on postoperative pain scores,knee rehabilitation,and stress response after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS Totally 32 adult patients scheduled for elective total

BACKGROUND Infantile anorexia is usually considered as a psychogenic disorder with benign prognosis. However, unusually severe characteristics of infantile anorexia, seen in the south of the island, seem to us in favor of a new metabolic etiology. METHODS Among 38 known cases, we retrospectively
