PHTHISIS AS AN INFECTIOUS DISEASE.

Periodontitis as an Infectious Disease

Infectious disease as an evolutionary paradigm.

The basic principles of genetics and evolution apply equally to human hosts and to emerging infections, in which foodborne outbreaks play an important and growing role. However, we are dealing with a very complicated coevolutionary process in which infectious agent outcomes range from mutual annihilation to mutual integration and resynthesis of a new species. In our race against microbial evolu...

An Epidemic of Phthisis

is hodgkin’s disease an infectious disease?

the exact cause or causes of hodgkin's disease have not yet been determined. the etiology of the disease suggests, but has not verified, a possible immunological and/or viral relationship. the article reviews the literature on the epidemiology and etiology of hodgkin’s disease from 1955 to the present. the author presents several clinical phenomena that are commonly associated with hodgkin’s di...

Microparticles as Immune Regulators in Infectious Disease – An Opinion

Despite their clear relationship to immunology, few existing studies have examined the potential role of microparticles (MP) in infectious disease. MP have a different size range from exosomes and apoptotic bodies, with which they are often grouped and arise by different mechanisms in association with inflammatory cytokine action or stress on the source cell. Infection with pathogens usually le...
