The kinetics of the hemolytic reaction effected by the hemolysin of Clostridium septicum, strain 44, has been studied with regard to the effect of concentration, temperature, and hydrogen ion concentration on the rate of the hemolytic reaction. The kinetics of hemolysis was found to resemble in several respects that of enzyme-catalyzed reactions, but differed in the absence of a clearly defined...

PURPOSE The nationwide public health registers in Denmark provide a unique opportunity for evaluation of disease-associated morbidity if the positive predictive values (PPVs) of the primary diagnosis are known. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive values of hemolytic anemias registered in the Danish National Patient Register. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients with a first-ever...

I T IS NOW evident that the syndrome of acquired hemolytic anemia represents a distinct entity which is separate in pathogenesis and course from the commonly described familial hemolytic jaundice. This distinction, which was recognized by the writers of the early part of the century, was lost sight of by many more recent observers, who suggested that acquired hemolytic anemia was simply a sudde...

BACKGROUND Hemolytic uremic syndrome associated with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 has been widely known as a common cause of acute renal failure in children. There are only a few reports of sporadic Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli-hemolytic uremic syndrome in adults in the USA. Analyses from the 2011 outbreak of hemolytic uremic syndrome associated with Escherichia coli...

BACKGROUND Hemolytic uremic syndrome is a common cause of acute kidney injury in children. In children, hemolytic uremic syndrome is most commonly associated with gastrointestinal infections caused by Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli or other enteric organisms. Although less common, atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome is triggered by multiple factors and portends a significantly worse prog...

One of new applications on a new generation network (NwGN) is a contents centric network (CCN). The target of CCN is contents based networking. We enhanced a concept of CCN to machine-to-machine communications, streaming communications, and contents creation services within the network. This is called an enhanced-type data-centric network (E-DCN). To develop EDCN, orchestration between packet s...

The case histories of two patients with penicillin-induced haemolytic anaemia are presented. One had received 20 mega units a day for 18 days, the other had received 20 mega units a day for two days and then 12 mega units a day for 25 days, before the haemolytic anaemia was diagnosed. Both had previously had courses of penicillin. A strongly positive direct antiglobulin reaction which appeared ...

streptococcuscus beta hemolytic group a is the most important pathogen causing which may lead to purulent and non purulent angina. rheumatic fever is the most important complication that is the cause of 30% to 40% of cardiac disease and disablement. this study was performed to evaluate prevalence of streptococcuscus beta hemolytic group a and estimate role of clinical findings in children with ...
