چکیده

manipulation, usually administered in the course of chiropractic treatment, can cause stroke, 10 and abducens paresis may develop if there is brainstem infarction or neck vessel dissection. Since our patient had no signs of brainstem infarction and her neck vessels appeared pristine on MRI, her abducens paresis undoubtedly resulted from the intracranial hypotension per se. Ophthalmologists evaluating patients with orthostatic headache and ophthalmoplegia of unknown aetiology should consider the diagnosis of intracranial hypotension and inquire about recent chiropractic neck manipulation.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism in the Promoter Region of Bovine Interleukin 8 Gene and its Association with Milk Production Traits and Somatic Cell Score of Holstein Cattle in Iran

Background: Interleukie-8 is a proinflammatory cytokine and a potent chemotactic and activation factor for neutrophils. It has been reported to be expressed in high levels by various cell types after immune stimulation and mediates neutrophil recruitment in host. Objectives: The aim of this study was to analysis of the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at position -18...

Association of a PDCD1 Polymorphism With Sympathetic Ophthalmia in Han Chinese.

Purpose Several studies have shown that sympathetic ophthalmia (SO) and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease possess many similarities concerning their clinical manifestations. The aim of this study was to investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms that have been shown to be associated with VKH disease in earlier studies may also be associated with SO. Methods There were 114 SO patient...

Association between interleukin-10 gene polymorphism and development of IgA nephropathy in a Chinese population

We carried out a study to investigate the association between three promoter SNPs (-592G/A, -819T/C and -1082A/C) of Interleukin-10 (IL-10) and development of IgA nephropathy. A hospital-based case-control design was taken in this study. The present study consisted of 184 patients with IgA nephropathy and 237 healthy controls. Polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (...

Association of the interleukin-10 gene -1082A/G genetic polymorphism with risk of ischemic stroke in a Chinese population.

We investigated the possible association between two single nucleotide polymorphisms of IL10 (-1082A/G and -592C/A) and susceptibility to ischemic stroke. In total, 335 patients with proven ischemic stroke and 335 control subjects were recruited from Xinxiang Central Hospital between March 2013 and May 2015. The IL10 -1082A/G and -529C/A polymorphisms were investigated by polymerase chain react...
