HIV As Trojan Exosome: Immunological Paradox Explained?
The HIV pandemic is still a major global challenge, despite the widespread availability of antiretroviral drugs. An effective vaccine would be the ideal approach to bringing the pandemic to an end. However, developing an effective HIV vaccine has proven to be an elusive goal. Three major human HIV vaccine trials revealed a strong trend toward greater risk of infection among vaccine recipients v...
متن کاملSex difference in risk of second but not of first venous thrombosis: paradox explained.
BACKGROUND The risk of recurrent venous thrombosis is 2-fold higher in men than in women. In contrast, no such sex difference in the risk of first venous thrombosis has been reported. We hypothesized that, for a first event, a risk difference between the sexes is masked by female exposure to reproductive factors (oral contraception, pregnancy/puerperium, and postmenopausal hormone therapy). M...
متن کاملBody Mass Index-Mortality Paradox in Hemodialysis Can It Be Explained by Blood Pressure?
Unlike the general population, among hemodialysis patients body mass index (BMI) is related to blood pressure (BP) and mortality inversely. To explore the reasons for this risk-factor paradox, the cross-sectional association of obesity with the following factors was examined: the prevalence of hypertension, its control, and echocardiographic left ventricular mass index (LVMI). Longitudinal foll...
متن کاملThe benzaldehyde oxidation paradox explained by the interception of peroxy radical by benzyl alcohol.
Benzaldehyde readily undergoes autoxidation to form benzoic acid on exposure to air at room temperature. Yet it can be formed in high yield from, for example, benzyl alcohol by oxidation using a variety of procedures and catalysts. Here we report the evidence to resolve this apparent paradox. It is confirmed that benzyl alcohol (and a number of other alcohols), even at low concentrations in ben...
متن کاملAbsorption of sugars in the Egyptian fruit bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus): a paradox explained.
Two decades ago D. J. Keegan reported results on Egyptian fruit bats (Rousettus aegyptiacus, Megachiroptera) that were strangely at odds with the prevailing understanding of how glucose is absorbed in the mammalian intestine. Keegan's in vitro tests for glucose transport against a concentration gradient and with phloridzin inhibition in fruit bat intestine were all negative, although he used se...
