Ileal complications, including perforation and bleeding, are uncommon in the western world today. We report a 26-year-old man with typhoid fever who developed hypoxemia, pleural effusion, ileal perforation and ileal bleeding. He was treated with intravenous chloramphenicol and underwent 2

Typhoid is an endemic hassle, especially in third-world countries like Pakistan. It is an enteric fever characterized by systemic manifestations that include high temperature and abdominal pain.

The existence of pluripotential haemopoietic stem cells raises the possibility of stem cell competition when two or more differentiating stimuli are given either simultaneously or in close succession. The experiments now reported deal with the effects on guinea pig bone marrow of successive

The myocardium of rabbits with endotoxin shock produced by two intravenous injections (0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg) of the typhoid fever bacillus antigen was studied histologically, histochemically, histoenzymatically and by polarization microscopy. Animals were killed by decapitation 0,5-1,5, 5-10, 24-30,

Few studies discuss causes and outcomes of peritonitis in low-income settings. This study describes epidemiology of patients with peritonitis at a Rwandan referral hospital. Identification of risk factors associated with mortality and unplanned reoperation could improve management of

OBJECTIVE Based on the therapeutic claims of Angong Niuhuang pill, a series of pharmacodynamic experiments were designed, where pharmacological effects were investigated comparatively with its simplified prescription(realgar and cinnabar are removed from the original pill) as a parallel control in

Hypoxia plays an important role in pathogenesis of infectious diseases. Therefore, its correction is an essential factor in pathogenetic antibacterial treatment. Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) as a leading method in current antihypoxic therapy was studied in combined medication for typhoid,

The sensitivity to some non-radiation agents in mice which displayed an increased radioresistance 12 days following sublethal radiation was investigated. The animals demonstrated no enhanced cross-resistance to acute hypoxia, injections of KCN, strychnine, sarcolysine, hexenal. Resistance to typhoid

Acute pancreatitis develops immediately after the causative impulse, while chronic pancreatitis develops after the long-term action of the noxious agent. A typical representative of acute pancreatitis is biliary pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis develops in alcoholism and has a long latency. As

Immersion of tissue slices of liver or of kidney in buffered Krebs-Ringer solution at 38 degrees , with oxygenation, gives opportunity for the study of water exchange during 3 hours following removal of the tissue from the body. Under these conditions a wide variety of physical and chemical agents

Clinicians have generally avoided prescribing corticosteroids for active infection because of their known immunosuppressive effects and concern about long-term complications. We conducted a review of the published randomized, double-blind trials comparing corticosteroids and placebo in infections.
