excessive amounts (HAE type II). Previously, we have found strong association between baseline level of functional C1-inhibitor and severity of HAE. Our aim was to investigate complement activation products in HAE, during a follow-up period, and to analyze the relationship between these products and severity of disease. Methods: 107 HAE patients (96 HAE type I, 11 type II) and 113 healthy contr...

Background: Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a common infection in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients and may accelerate HIV progression by rising HIV viral load and decreasing CD4 count. However, the available data regarding the influence of HSV-2 seropositivity on HIV progression in HIV individuals are inconclusive. Therefore, we aimed to determine HSV-2 seroprevalence in na&iu...

ment, 1 did not received and had some improvement of their symptoms. Conclusions:We found out that the 8 patients with autoimmunity had allergy and also mixed T and B immunodeficiency. We conclude that the physicians should be aware of the correlation in chronic inflammation and the presence of the 3 immunological clinical problems to give appropriate treatment and improve the prognosis of thes...

High levels of adherence in clinical trials are essential for producing accurate intervention efficacy estimates. Adherence to clinical trial products and procedures is dependent on the motivations that drive participants. Data are presented to document reasons for trial participation and adherence to daily aciclovir for HSV-2 and HIV-1 genital shedding suppression among 300 HIV-1/HSV-2 seropos...

We compute the canonical class of certain Rees algebras. Our formula generalizes that of Herzog and Vasconcelos. Its proof relies on the fact that the formation of the canonical module commutes with subintersections in important cases. As an application we treat the classical determinantal ideals and the corresponding algebras of minors. A considerable part of Wolmer Vasconcelos’ work has been ...

Number 20 Last year I wrote a two-part essay on herpes simplex virus infections. 1z In it, I noted that although herpes has been known for over 2,000 years, it has only recently attracted the attention of medical researchers. But herpes, specifically HSV2, is just one of several sexually transmitted diseases (STDS) whose incidence has recently reached dramatic levels. This " new generation " of...

background herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 (hsv-1 and hsv-2) are common infectious agents worldwide. data on prevalence of hsv-1 and hsv-2 infections are limited in asia, especially in iran. our study aimed on determination of seroepidemiology of hsv-1 and hsv-2 infections in asymptomatic healthy students of islamic azad university of kazeroun, fars province, southwest of iran. patients ...

Objective: Elsberg syndrome (ES) is an established but often unrecognized cause of acute lumbosacral radiculitis with myelitis related to recent herpes virus infection. We defined ES, determined its frequency in patients with cauda equina syndrome (CES) with myelitis, and evaluated its clinical, radiologic, and microbiologic features and outcomes. Methods:We searched theMayo Clinic medical reco...
