In title compound, [Cd(C(9)H(6)N(2)O(2)S)(C(12)H(8)N(2))](n), the Cd(II) atom is in a distorted tetra-gonal-pyramidal environment, coordinated by one chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligand, one chelating 2-(1,3-benzimidazol-2-ylsulfan-yl)acetate (bia) ligand bound through one N atom and one O atom of the carboxyl group, and one N atom from a second bia ligand. Each bia ligand acts as bridge betwe...

Oral lesions may be found in patients with Crohn's disease (CD), in a percentage up to 20%. The aim of this study was to investigate a possible relationship between Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) and oral lesions in CD patients. 23 oral biopsies were examined performing IS900 Nested PCR; 9 of them were positive: 8 from CD patients and 1 from a control. Our purpose is to go on...

Cinnamomum longepaniculatum essential oil (CLEO) possesses antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities. However, CLEO shows volatilization poor solubility, which limits its application field. In this research, inclusion complexes of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) with were produced, physicochemical properties characterized. Response surface methodology was used to obtain optimum prepara...

We investigated serum concentrations endoscopic biochemical remission in CD. Methods In a prospective observational study, we measured samples from 41 consecutive who started (approximately 6 mg/kg, intravenously, then 90 mg eve...

Introduction Castleman disease (CD) is a rare lymphoproliferative that comprises two distinct clinical subtypes (unicentric and multicentric) and has two basic histopathology patterns that are hyaline-vascular (HV) and plasma-cell (PC) type. Some cases of multicentric PC disease are associated with HHV-8 infection. Objective To present the histopathologic and immunohistochemical characteristi...

Land use of sewage sludge is the primary disposal method in Shanxi, accounting for 42.66% of all. To determine the ecological risk of heavy metals in sewage sludge, contents of seven heavy metals in sewage sludge from 9 municipal waste water treatment plants (WWTPs) that had the highest application for land use were determined. The order of the measured concentrations was: Zn > Cr > Cu > Ni > P...
