arthus reaction/fever

A histologic, ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study of the vasculitis in the rete mirabile of 18 calves with experimental and two calves with spontaneous malignant catarrhal fevel showed lesions similar to those reported in graft rejection and some other lymphocyte-associated vasculopathies.

In 1979, 101 adults were skin-tested by a health department to evaluate tuberculin reactivity; of the 96 persons followed, 87 (91 per cent) experienced inflammation marked by swelling, erythema, arm pain, and fever. Five months later, a 5 mm to 10 mm purple macule persisted in 76 persons. The vials

Recently, we showed that 5 cases of hypersensitivity to mosquito bites (HMB) concealed the clonal lymphoproliferation of Epstein-Barr viral (EBV) DNA-positive natural killer (NK) cells. Although the symptoms of HMB have been supposed to derive from Arthus phenomenon, it has become apparent that this

The small vessel's necrotizing angiitis (necrotizing microangiitis (NMA), leucocytoclastic angiitis) form a continuous spectrum from the exclusively cutaneous forms of Gougreot, to those which seriously affect the viscera, as the very acute and fatal cases of Zeek, passing through a series of

Histochemical studies of immunopathologic conditions were carried out, using Coons' fluorescent antibody technique. Experimental conditions studied were: serum sickness, generalized anaphylaxis, the Arthus reaction and experimental glomerulonephritis. Human diseases studied were those referred to as

OBJECTIVE The aim was to describe a case of hypersensitivity to rabbit antithymocyte globulin (rATG) occurring in the context of islet transplantation. METHODS A 36-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes was admitted for islet transplantation. rATG was administered the first day (1.5 mg/kg) with

The passive Arthus arthritis in the guinea pig provides an experimental model for studying reactions comparable to those which occur in rheumatic fever. The joint swelling in the Arthus reaction is followed by tissue injury which is reflected 24 hours later by a rise in the DPA level. The height of
