چکیده
THE asthmatic attack which fails to respond to adrenaline and aminophylline will, in most cases, settle with treatment which includes high doses of corticosteroids (above 60 mg of prednisolone) and antibiotics. Occasionally, in spite of these measures, remission is delayed, the condition of the patient deteriorates and, when the attack is prolonged, death may occur (Witts, 1936). Autopsy in such cases reveals a characteristic pathology (Huber & Koessler, 1922). There is widespread plugging of the bronchi

Salivary Flow Rate and pH in Asthmatic and Non-Asthmatic Patients
Background and Aim: Saliva is an essential fluid for protecting the mouth, and any change in its quality or quantity affects the health of the oral cavity. Asthma and the medications used to treat it may decrease salivary flow and change salivary components, including changes in the pH of the dental plaque. The purpose of this study was to determine the salivary flow and pH in asthmatic and non...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of the Enterococcus faecalis strain isolated from red tilapia (Oreochromis hybrid) in Indonesia: A preliminary report

Results of the external examination from two moribund red tilapia found the hemorrhagic traces in some parts of the body such as the cranial area near the mouth, eyes, operculum, and some body parts and erosion on the tail, pectoral, and...
متن کاملFabrication and in vitro evaluation of Ketotifen Fumarate-loaded PLGA nanoparticles as a sustained delivery system
Abstract Ketotifen fumarate is a non-bronchodilator anti-asthmatic drug which inhibits the effects of certain endogenous substances known to be inflammatory mediators, and thereby exerts antiallergic activity. The present study describes the formulation of a sustained release nanoparticle (NP) drug delivery system containing ketotifen, using poly (D,L lactide-co-glycolide acid) (PLGA). Biodegra...
