Leptospirosis and immune-mediated hemolytic anemia: A lethal association
Immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) is a common cause of anemia in dogs. The immune aggression towards erythrocytes can be triggered by many pathological conditions such as infection, inflammatory disease or neoplasia. Upon ruling out any eliciting conditions, a diagnosis of the primary immune-mediated disease can be made. In this particular case of severe anemia (tested positive for circul...
متن کاملImmune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome: A Reappraisal
Individuals with human immunodeficiency virus infection who commence antiretroviral therapy when they are very immunodeficient are susceptible to immune reconstitution disorders. The most common disorders are the various forms of immune restoration disease (IRD) that appear to result from the restoration of a dysregulated immune response against pathogen-specific antigens. Essentially, any path...
متن کاملAlternatively spliced isoforms of fibronectin in immune-mediated glomerulosclerosis: the role of TGFbeta and IL-4.
Fibronectin (FN) is the main extracellular matrix component in glomerulosclerotic lesions. There are different FN isoforms that result from alternative splicing at the EDA and EDB regions of FN mRNA. Increased inclusion of EDA and EDB, which can be elicited by TGFbeta, may be conducive to the development of glomerulosclerosis (GS). TGFbeta and IL-4 have previously been shown to play a role in t...
متن کاملCEREBRAL HYDATIDOSIS: A REAPPRAISAL
The remarkable evolution of surgical management of cerebral hydatidosis towards an earlier diagnosis and proper treatment is evident from this 22-year retrospective study of our experience with 19 cases seen at Shiraz University Medical Institutions. Both cases of iatrogenically-induced infected cysts were seen during the pre-CT era. The optimistic view of being able to remove all the cyst...
متن کاملA reappraisal of the Pyriculariaceae in Iran
The family Magnaporthaceae considered as a single-family placed in the order Magnaporthales. Currently, three distinct clades are phylogenetically distinguished in this order that one is referred as the Pyriculariaceae. The Pyriculariaceae is characterized as a novel family having new genera, new species, new combinations and neotypification (basionym). To taxonomically evaluate this family, an...
