Critically ill patients are at heightened risk for nosocomial infections. The anaphylatoxin C5a impairs phagocytosis by neutrophils. However, the mechanisms by which this occurs and the relevance for acquisition of nosocomial infection remain undetermined. We aimed to characterize mechanisms by which C5a inhibits phagocytosis in vitro and in critically ill patients, and to define the relationsh...
W individuals of all ages (from neonates to elders) and all socioeconomic groups develop chronic wounds (i.e., a break or chronic ulcer of the skin and underlying tissue that does not respond to medical or surgical interventions). This is particularly true for people living with advanced/end-stage chronic illnesses associated with arterial or venous insufficiency/ edema (e.g., diabetes mellitus...
INTRODUCTION In healthy subjects, Cytomegalovirus infection can be asymptomatic or manifest as mononucleosis syndrome, but organ disease has also been reported. However, in immunocompromised patients this infection can lead to its most significant and severe disease and even mortality. When Cytomegalovirus causes a gastrointestinal tract infection, it more commonly manifests with luminal tract ...
INTRODUCTION The metabolic syndrome (MetS) is common in human immune deficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Immune deficiencies caused by HIV give rise to numerous opportunistic gastrointestinal pathogens such as Helicobacter pylori, the commonest cause of chronic gastritis. The study sought to determine the relationship between H pyl...
Abstract Horse owners are increasingly interested in optimizing the health of their animals. In addition to targeted vaccination programs, they desire feeds and supplements that reduce inflammation or strengthen immune competence. Many nutrients feed additives have widely recognized roles host defense. Several these been evaluated horses, including select trace minerals (Zn, Se), vitamins (E, C...
The manifestations of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection are protean and vasculitides are one of the less common but nonetheless important consequences. A wide range of vasculitides can be encountered, ranging from vasculitis resulting from specific infective agents to a non-specific vasculitis. Among the infective causes, cytomegalovirus and tuberculosis are probably the most common....
Strongyloides stercoralis is an intestinal nematode of humans that infects tens of millions of people worldwide. S. stercoralis is unique among intestinal nematodes in its ability to complete its life cycle within the host through an asexual autoinfective cycle, allowing the infection to persist in the host indefinitely. Under some conditions associated with immunocompromise, this autoinfective...
We present 3 sporadic cases of a subacute to chronic, progressive motor (i.e. weakness, ataxia, spasticity, dysarthria, and dysphagia) and cognitive disorder in adults of both sexes, without proven immunocompromise or malignancy. Neuroimaging studies revealed tiny calcifications with atrophy of the cerebrum, pons, and midbrain in 1 patient, cerebral atrophy in another, and cerebral atrophy and ...
Many variables affect the outcome of keratomycosis and systemic fungal infections in animals. These include pathogenicity of the fungal organism(toxins, trophisms, and evasion of host response); previous treatment with topical or systemic corticosteroids, which can have a dramatic negative impact on host defense mechanisms: concurrent systemic illness or immunocompromise: severity/extent of inf...
