Experimental measles encephalitis: a genetic analysis.
The encephalitogenic potential of nine temperature-sensitive mutants of measles virus was determined in newborn golden Syrian hamsters. The parental virus produced acute encephalitis without any prior adaptation. Six of the mutants were attenuated, two were virulent, and one was associated with hydrocephalus with acute onset. The attenuated mutants, blocked before measles virus antigen and ribo...
متن کاملMeasles encephalitis during immunosuppressive
Between 1971 and 1989 measles encephalitis was identified in five children receiving chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Review of these and previously reported cases of measles encephalitis in immunosuppressed patients failed to identify any pathognomonic features in the history, the clinical presentation, or the results of electroencephalography or computed tomography. Detection o...

متن کاملMumps, measles, and rubella vaccination and encephalitis.
Comment There are three major problems in the endoscopic laser treatment of bleeding gastric cancer. Firstly, the tumour is often large, making coagulation of the entire surface impossible. Secondly, tumours may protrude into the lumen, making access to the distal surface of the lesion impossible. Finally, blood and clot in the stomach obscure the view. The possibility of using the laser at low...
متن کاملAcute Measles Encephalitis in Partially Vaccinated Adults
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of acute measles encephalitis (AME) is poorly understood. Treatment with immune-modulators is based on theories that post-infectious autoimmune responses cause demyelination. The clinical course and immunological parameters of AME were examined during an outbreak in Vietnam. METHODS AND FINDINGS Fifteen measles IgM-positive patients with confusion or Glasgow Coma S...
