Marked alveolar apoptosis/proliferation imbalance in end-stage emphysema
BACKGROUND Apoptosis has recently been proposed to contribute to the pathogenesis of emphysema. METHODS In order to establish if cell fate plays a role even in end-stage disease we studied 16 lungs (9 smoking-associated and 7 alpha1antitrypsin (AAT)-deficiency emphysema) from patients who had undergone lung transplantations. Six unused donor lungs served as controls. Apoptosis was evaluated b...
متن کاملSystemic lupus erythematosus accompanying with renal tuberculosis: a case report.
A 26-year-old woman, with a six-year history of well-controlled systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), complained of urinary frequency and urgency. After failure of commonly-used antibiotic therapy, mycobacterium tuberculosis was cultured from her urine and renal tuberculosis (TB) was diagnosed.

متن کاملMarked paraneoplastic basophilia accompanying eosinophilia in a cat with alimentary T-cell lymphoma
CASE SUMMARY A 5-year-old male neutered domestic shorthair cat was referred with a history of persistent pyrexia, pica, soft faeces, inappetence, intermittent vomiting, mild-to-moderate granulocytosis and mild hypercalcaemia. No significant improvement was noted after antibiotic and corticosteroid treatment, except that the hypercalcaemia resolved. Physical examination, including thoracic auscu...
متن کاملSystemic lupus erythematosus associated with marked intracranial calcification.
The authors describe a case of systemic lupus erythematosus associated with marked intracerebral calcification. The distribution of high signal on T1-weighted MR images was almost identical to the distribution of calcification on CT; however, the bodies of caudate nuclei with little calcification on CT also showed high intensities on T1-weighted images.
متن کاملMalfunction of a unipolar pacemaker system following development of marked subcutaneous emphysema.
Failure of a unipolar pacemaker system due to subcutaneous emphysema is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication after implantation. We report on a pacemaker dysfunction observed three days after implantation in a 91-year-old patient following development of marked subcutaneous emphysema. Function was immediately restored following application of pressure bandages and the condition ...
