parotitis/potassium

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Potassium Dehydroandrographolide Succinate Injection (PDSI) in the treatment of child epidemic parotitis (EP). METHODS Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) regarding PDSI in the treatment of child EP were searched in China

BACKGROUND Neonatal parotitis is a rare disease. Neonatal suppurative parotitis commonly presents with facial swelling, irritability, tenderness of parotid region, and with or without fever. Acute neonatal suppurative parotitis is one of the differential diagnoses of facial swelling with a

We examined the effect of tympanic neurectomy on the clinical symptoms and secretory function of the parotids in 13 patients with chronic parotitis or sialadenosis for 3 years. Each patient had significantly fewer complaints immediately after the surgery. In quite a few patients the improvement was

The parotid flow rate, buffering capacity and inorganic components in saliva from 17 children with juvenile recurrent parotitis (JRP) in periods free of symptoms and in healthy controls of the same number, sex and age were analysed after gustatory stimulation with 1%, 2% and 6% citric acid. There

The concentration of parotid fluid electrolytes and glucose was measured in: (a) a subject during an acute exacerbation of chronic recurrent parotitis and then at various stages of recovery following treatment with corticosteroids; (b) a group of seven patients seen during an acute exacertation and

The concentration and total value of immunoglobulins (SIgA, IgG) and electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chlorine, calcium and phosphorus) in mixed saliva were examined in 28 patients with Sjögren's syndrome (SS), 25 with chronic obstructive parotitis (COP), 32 with sialadenosis and 32 normal controls.

Secretion rates and the composition of isolated parotid saliva samples were samples were examined in 51 patients suffering from chronic recurrent parotitis, sialosis, or Sjögren's syndrome, and in 17 healthy controls. Evaluation of the results indicated that sialochemical examination may provide a

Sialochemistry was performed on the stimulated parotid secretion of a group of patients with Sjögren's syndrome (SS) having a Grade 4 lymphocytic infiltrate of their minor labial salivary glands and a normal control group. Parameters examined included flow rate, and concentration of sodium,
