lymphopenia/triglyceride

A severe case of congenital chyloperitoneum was managed over a prolonged period by permanent drainage and replacement of lymphatic loss by fresh frozen plasma, resulting in normal development of the infant. The average daily drainage of 360 ml during a period of a medium-chain-triglyceride (MCT)

Lymphocytopenia and depression of natural killer cells have been observed in patients with adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) treated with glycerol trioleate and glycerol trierucate ('Lorenzo's oil'). To investigate possible alterations of cellular immunoreactivity, we measured lymphocyte proliferation in

Three- to 15-month-old rabbits with Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemia (WHHL) were tested to determine if hematological abnormalities would accompany the known hyperlipidemia and deficiency of receptors for low-density lipoprotein; the findings were compared to those of New Zealand white (NZW)

Patients with long-standing diabetes may have a propensity for infection-related mortality. In this study, lymphocyte subsets, the proliferative response of splenocytes to mitogens, and circulating levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) in genetically obese-diabetic Wistar fatty (fa/fa)

BACKGROUND Intestinal lymphangiectasia (IL) is a rare disease characterized by a dilatation of the intestinal lymphatics and loss of lymph fluid into the gastrointestinal tract leading to hypoproteinemia, edema, lymphocytopenia, hypogammaglobinemia, and immunological abnormalities. Iron, calcium,

Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia (PIL) is a rare disorder of unknown etiology characterized by diffuse or localized dilation and eventual rupture of the enteric lymphatic vessels in mucosa, submucosa, and/or subserosa. Lymph, rich in all kinds of proteins and lymphocytes, leaks into the

Waldmann's disease or Primary Intestinal Lymphangiectasia (PIL) is a rare disorder of gastrointestinal tract characterized by dilated lymphatics and widened villi causing leakage of lymph into intestinal lumen. Loss of lymph leads to hypoalbuminemia, hyogammaglobulinemia and lymphopenia. Secondary

The objectives of the present study were to identify a possible tick vector and to determine the prevalence of camel theileriosis in Egypt using blood smears stained with Giemsa's stain and PCR assay. Hemogram and serum biochemical constituents were also investigated. A total of 243 camels, aged 3-5

OBJECTIVE Transitory changes in the plasma levels of lipids, cholesterol and triglycerides have been observed since a long time by many authors, in the course of bacterial infections, with hypocholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia in the acute phase, increasing the third day of clinical evolution.

Purpose: Animal models that accurately reflect human responses to radiation injury are needed for advanced mechanistic investigation and development of effective therapeutics. The rabbit is an established animal model accepted by the FDA for studies of cardiovascular disease, lipid

Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia (PIL), Waldmann's disease, is a rare disorder of unknown etiology characterized by dilated intestinal lacteals leading to lymph leakage into the small-bowel lumen and responsible for protein-losing enteropathy leading to lymphopenia, hypoalbuminemia and

In 2005 and 2006 an outbreak of disease associated with border disease virus (BDV) infection caused high mortality in the Pyrenean chamois (Rupicapra pyrenaica) in the Catalan Pyrenees (NE Spain). The aim of this study was to determine values for different haematological and serum biochemical
