Estimation and Comparison of Copper Content in Raw Areca Nuts and Commercial Areca Nut Products: Implications in Increasing Prevalence of Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSMF).
BACKGROUND Oral Squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is often preceded by potentially malignant disorders (PMDs) like oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF). The rate of transformation of OSMF to OSCC ranges from 3 to 19%. OSMF is etiologically related to chewing of areca nut (betel nut), a habit prevalent among the population groups in south-east Asia. Along with alkaloids, the high copper content in areca ...
متن کاملChildren monosensitized to pine nuts have similar patterns of sensitization.
BACKGROUND Several cases of pine nut allergies and anaphylaxis have been reported in the literature, but only few pine nut allergens have been characterized. The aim of this research is to identify through immunoelectrophoretic techniques the major pine nut allergens in a group of children monosensitized to pine nuts. METHODS We studied five children with pine nut allergies and no other sensi...
متن کاملA ug 1 99 5 Nuts have no hair
We show that the Riemannian Kerr solutions are the only Riemannian, Ricci-flat and asymptotically flat C2-metrics gμν on a 4dimensional complete manifold M of topology R2×S2 which have (at least) a 1-parameter group of periodic isometries with only isolated fixed points (”nuts”) and with orbits of bounded length at infinity. ∗Present address: Institut für theoretische Physik der Univ. Wien, Bol...
متن کاملHypercholesterolemia and hypertension have synergistic deleterious effects on coronary endothelial function.
OBJECTIVE Coronary endothelial dysfunction is associated with an increase in cardiac events. Hypercholesterolemia (HC) and hypertension (HT) are both associated with endothelial dysfunction, and their coexistence is associated with an increased incidence of cardiac events in epidemiological studies. However, pathogenic mechanisms are poorly understood. Here we studied the effects of coexisting ...
متن کاملDeleterious effects of reactive metabolites
A number of drugs have been withdrawn from the market or severely restricted in their use because of unexpected toxicities that become apparent only after the launch of new drug entities. Circumstantial evidence suggests that, in most cases, reactive metabolites are responsible for these unexpected toxicities. In this review, a general overview of the types of reactive metabolites and the conse...
