PULMONARY PERFUSION SCAN, PULMONARY FUNCTION STUDIES AND TUBERCULIN SENSITIVITY IN AOPTITIS SYNDROME

Pulmonary function in ulcerative colitis

 Abstract Background: Pulmonary involvement in ulcerative colitis (UC) is thought to be rare. There is not a definite document about the question that "Is the lung a target organ in inflammatory bowel disease?" The aim of the present study is to compare lung function between cases with UC and healthy controls. This study will also be of interest about searching the outbreak of pulmonary functio...

Bachground: The aim of this study was to determine of diagnostic value of albumin, anti-thrombin Ш, and fibrinogen factors in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism compared to lung perfusion scan in patients with nephrotic syndrome referred to Hazrat Ali Asghar hospital of Tehran city (Iran) in 2018-2019.  Methods: This study was cross sectional study that was carried out on 30 patients with nep...

Pulmonary Function after Adenotonsillectomy

Introduction Adenotonsillar hypertrophy is a common disorder among children which, without proper treatment, may lead to considerable problems. Although the consequences of this disorder have been studied in other articles, we decided to evaluate the changes in pulmonary function tests in these children after adenotonsillectomy, and the correlation between clinical and spirometric parameters.  ...

Dermal Tuberculin Sensitivity and Allergic Pulmonary Granuloma Formation

Anti-rabbit alveolar macrophage goat serum (AMS), adsorbed of hemolysins and hemagglutinins, exhibited complement-dependent cytotoxicity for the following rabbit target cells: alveolar macrophages, thymocytes, and kidney (RK-13) cells. The intravenous injection of AMS, sufficient to reduce markedly the dermal tuberculin reaction in BCG-sensitized rabbits, did not suppress the development of BCG...
