Abstract It is widely accepted that the prevalence of metal hypersensitivity increasing. Furthermore, incidence unerupted mandibular second molars 2.3%, which 0.2% judged to be a result impaction. While it becoming more common treat impacted in daily clinical practice, hypersensitive patients presenting with are less frequently encountered. There have been no previous reports who required molar...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to characterize clopidogrel hypersensitivity and describe its successful management with oral steroids without clopidogrel discontinuation. BACKGROUND Hypersensitivity reactions to clopidogrel are poorly understood and present difficulty in management. METHODS Patients diagnosed with clopidogrel hypersensitivity after percutaneous coronary interventi...

The prospect of biomaterial hypersensitivity developing in response to joint implant materials was first presented more than 30 years ago. Many studies have established probable causation between first-generation metal-on-metal hip implants and hypersensitivity reactions. In a limited patient population, implant failure may ultimately be related to metal hypersensitivity. The examination of hyp...

Skin hypersensitivity to streptococcal antigens was demonstrated in 15 New Zealand red rabbits that were sensitized by intracutaneous injections with group A streptococci, and leukocytic hypersensitivity, as determined by in vitro inhibition of leukocyte migration, was demonstrated in 11 of the rabbits. The skin hypersensitivity persisted for at least 8 weeks, whereas the leukocytic hypersensit...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW Hypersensitity pneumonitis, caused by inhalation of various antigens, is characterized by interstitial mononuclear cell infiltration, nonnecrotizing granulomas, cellular bronchiolitis, and fibrosis. The pathological picture of chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis is, however, complicated; it is sometimes difficult to differentiate chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis from idio...

Objective: This clinical trial was conducted to compare the efficacy of fluoride varnish containing xylitol coated calcium and phosphate or potassium nitrate gel versus conventional in management hypersensitivity non-carious exposed root surfaces adult patients. Material Methods: 35 patients having 105 hypersensitive teeth were randomly allocated be treated either using Embrace (PULPDENT Corpor...

Background & Aims: Allergic reaction is a common side effect of Efavirenz and drug replacement may not be an option to physicians. Here, a successful drug desensitization experiment on an 8-year-old female child over a period of 9 days is reported. Case presentation: The patient was an 8-year old female child with HIV in Kerman, Iran who had been received oral efavirenz together with lamivudine...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Oxaliplatin hypersensitivity is a well-known adverse reaction but the prevalence varies and data for frequency and clinical features have not been reported for Korea. Here we evaluates the prevalence and risk factors for hypersensitivity reactions to oxaliplatin after chemotherapy. METHODS Clinical information on all patients treated with oxaliplatin was retrospectively rev...

Asthma is the most common cause of recurrent wheezing, cough and dyspnea in childhood. Delay in diagnosis and lack of appropriate treatment can cause sustained changes which decrease respiratory capacity of children in future. Therefore, identifying the symptoms relating to asthma is the key for timely diagnosis and treatment of this disease. This study was done to investigate asthma incidence ...

studies have demonstrated that plant extracts possess various biological characteristics, including immunomodulatory activity. heracleum persicum desf. (apiaceae), a medicinal plant native to iran, was studied for its immunomodulatory activity. immunomodulatory activity of different doses of an aqueous extract of h. persicum, was evaluated in female swiss albino mice. mice were treated with thr...
