متن کاملMicrovascular dysfunction in severe Plasmodium falciparum Malaria.
TO THE EDITOR—Hanson and colleagues present a commendable attempt to determine the relative contribution of macrovascular and microvascular dysfunction in severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria [1]. The number of capillaries with impaired flow correlated with the severity of illness and central venous lactate, whereas most indices of macrovascular function did not [1]. Thus, this study demonstrat...
متن کاملExpression of Nuclear Factor Kappa B and Survivin in Psoriasis
Background and Objective. Suppression of apoptosis has been proposed as a mechanism responsible for epidermal thickness in psoriasis. Survivin is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis family. Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) is one of the transcriptional factors that regulate many genes affecting apoptosis. The aim of this study was to determine survivin and NF-κB expressions in psoriasis in com...
متن کاملMalaria and Severe Anemia: Thinking beyond Plasmodium falciparum
In this week’s PLOS Medicine, Ric Price and colleagues compare the burden of anemia in different plasmodia species in a robust hospital-based surveillance study in Eastern Indonesia [1]. The risks of severe anemia associated with non-falciparum and mixed species infections are characterized and compared to no malaria infection and monoinfection with Plasmodium falciparum. While the study is obs...
