Studies on Pure Red Cell Aplasia . XI

Thirty-seven patients with pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) were seen between 1 966 and 1 982. Ten patients had accompanying diseases described in association with PRCA, while the remainder had primary PACA. All but two patients were treated with some form of immune manipulation. including corticosteroids. cytotoxic drugs. antithymocyte globulin. splenectomy. thymectomy. and plasmapheresis. Twenty-...

biochemical and immunological studies on eight pollen types from south assam, india

a total of 65 pollen types were identified from two years atmospheric pollen survey in the environmental conditions of south assam. out of them, eight pollen types viz., acacia auriculiformis, amaranthus spinosus, cassia alata, cleome gynandra, cocos nucifera, imperata cylindrica, ricinus communis and trewia nudiflora, were selected for biochemical studies on the basis of their dominance in the...

Studies on Anaphylaxis with Pollen

1. Guinea pigs injected intracutaneously and subcutaneously with extract of the pollen of burweed marsh-elder in relatively small amounts did not show anaphylactic response to intravenous shock doses of this material 3 weeks later. 2. If, however, the animals were sensitized with horse serum either before, or along with the same pollen injections, they could then be shocked after an interval of...

Biochemical Studies on Shock

During and following the production of shock by hemorrhage in the normal, suprareno-demedullated, and suprarenalectomized rat, the following significant changes in amino acid and carbohydrate metabolism have been observed. 1. In the intact, suprareno-demedullated, and suprarenalectomized rat there is a progressive rise in the whole blood and plasma amino acid nitrogen levels during and after a ...
