Pathology and Electron Microscopy of Malaria

چکیده
Brain : Many, but not all, post mortem brain in cases of fatal malaria has been described as oedematous (Riganti et al., 1990). Cerebral oedema is detected less commonly during life, in two of ten unusually severe cases of cerebral malaria in Thailand, cerebral oedema developed as an agonal phenomenon (Looareesuwan et al., 1983). Macpherson et al. (1985) found minimal evidence of oedema. Oo et al. (1987) found that cerebral oedema was variable in their study.

A contrast agent recognizing activated platelets reveals murine cerebral malaria pathology undetectable by conventional MRI.
Human and murine cerebral malaria are associated with elevated levels of cytokines in the brain and adherence of platelets to the microvasculature. Here we demonstrated that the accumulation of platelets in the brain microvasculature can be detected with MRI, using what we believe to be a novel contrast agent, at a time when the pathology is undetectable by conventional MRI. Ligand-induced bind...

متن کاملCost-Effectiveness analysis of malaria diagnosis techniques in patients with suspected malaria in Hormozgan province- 2012
Introduction: Since ancient times Malaria in Iran has been considered as a serious health risk, especially in Hormozgan Province, as no other disease like Malaria has imposed irreparable financial and life losses to the country. Since saving costs in the healthcare sector comes as first priority in most countries, this study aims at launching a cost-effectiveness analysis on malaria diagnosis d...
متن کاملHistochemical And Electron Microscopic Diagnosis Of Mitochondrial Myopathy: The First Case Report From Iran
Muscle tissue, skeletal muscle as well as cardiac muscle, is commonly affected in mitochondrial disorders. One explanation for this observation is that muscle tissue has a high-energy demand and therefore is more sensitive to a deficiency of mitochondrial energy production than some other tissues. In mitochondrial disorders, skeletal muscle tissue may be affected primarily by defective respi...
متن کاملEvaluation of Microscopy Sensitivity, Specificity in Detection of P. falciparum and P. vivax, Using Monoplex real-time PCR, Gezira, Sudan
Background: Malaria is still account for 200 million cases annually. Microscopy is the gold standard technique for malaria parasites detection. PCR-based techniques can detect malaria infections with high sensitivity. The study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of microscopy technique in the detection of P. falciparum and P. vivax, using monoplex real-time PCR, Gezira State, Central Sudan. Met...
