Methemoglobinemia is characterized by an increased level of methemoglobin (MetHb) in the peripheral blood. MetHb levels increase after tumescent anesthesia and need to be monitored. If a patient becomes symptomatic and/or the MetHb levels increase >10%, intravenous injection of an antidote is

Acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis was induced in rats by injecting sodium taurocholate into the common biliopancreatic duct. The extent of pancreatic necrosis was quantified in histological sections during the course of the disease. The proportion of necrotic acini was low, although the amount of

The acid mucopolysaccharides of brain tissues are disclosed by their metachromatic staining with toluidine blue following saponification with potassium hydroxide, presumably as a result of the liberation of acid groups previously esterified. Earlier histochemical studies had disclosed the presence

Brugia pahangi infection in the canine rear limb results in marked lymphatic duct and popliteal lymph node pathologic changes. Limb edema is variably associated with infection and does not correlate well with duct or node lesions. To understand the mechanisms of limb edema, lymph node cells were

Inhalation of dexamethazone (Auxiloson) prohibits a toxic edema of the lungs after poisoning with irritants. Poisoning with methanol is to be treated with ethanol trisbuffer and tetrahydrofolic acid (Folsan). "Solvents" should be "bound" in paraffinum liquidum in order to prohibit their absorption.

A study on the effects of He-Ne laser irradiation on glomeruli and renal tubules of the chick embryo mesonephros at 7 days of in ovo development was made. To this purpose, He-Ne laser irradiation (potency: 5 mW, wavelength: 632.8 nm) was beamed for 5 minutes through a window opened in the egg shell,

OBJECTIVE A single s.c. injection of Dextran is very suitable in producing an inflammatory response in the rat. The Dextran edema has become a standard method. It seems not uhlikely that Sephadex, the Dextran gel widely used in the gelchromatography may have a similar effect. Sephadex, because of

To investigate the effects of chronic hypoxia exposure at high altitude on the formation of pulmonary edema in rats, we randomized rats into normoxic control groups and hypoxic 24, 48, and 72-hour exposure groups. In the hypoxic exposure group, the arterial blood gas, wet-dry weight ratio (W/D),

Staphylococcal enterotoxin (SE) induces T lymphocyte activation along with nasal allergic inflammation during rhinosinusitis, but it is under debate on which types of T helper (Th) cells respond exclusively or whether they respond synergically. We hypothesize that their responses may vary based on

Background: Wallerian degeneration (WD) following peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is an area of growing focus for pharmacological developments. Clinically, WD presents challenges in achieving full functional recovery following PNI, as

Mast cell infiltration occurs in malignant, inflammatory (eg, allergic, infectious), and idiopathic disease processes in humans and animals. Here, we describe the clinical and histological features of a unique proliferative conjunctivitis occurring in 15 cats. Ocular specimens were examined

The anti-HIV therapeutic dideoxyinosine (ddI) has been reported to produce a painful, dose-limiting peripheral myelinopathy in HIV-infected patients after chronic administration. We have previously demonstrated ddI-induced myelinopathy in a non-HIV-infected rat model after 20 weeks of dosing,

OBJECTIVE To identify possible special histopathologic features of different types of urticaria. METHODS Hematoxylin-eosin- and toluidine blue-stained sections from biopsy specimens of all patients with urticaria seen from 1990 to 1993. METHODS Inpatient and outpatient services of the Virchow

BACKGROUND Mast cells are indigenous connective tissue cells that function in the process of inflammation and edema. Their numbers were studied in a quantitative morphological study of the soleus muscles from 32-week-old and 56-week-old normal and genetically dystrophic dy2J and mdx mice to

Excitotoxicity is well recognised as a mechanism underlying neuronal cell death in several brain injuries. To investigate age-dependent differences in neurodegeneration, edema formation and astrogliosis, intrastriatal N-methyl-d-aspartate injections were performed in young (3 months) and aged (22-24
