Radio frequency electromagnetic field (RF EMF) exposures due to Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) window frequencies were investigated in this study. 158 Swiss Albino mice in unrestrained conditions were used as surrogate and divided into four groups. The average field strength generated and measured inside the cages placed at a far field from the antennas was 6mW/m and the specific ...

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a heterogeneous group of haematological disorders characterized by uncontrolled proliferation and infiltration of neoplastic haematopoietic cells in the bone marrow and blood. Extramedullary tissue involvement is not uncommon as part of the presentation in AML. Sites of involvement include liver, spleen, skin, gum, bone, testis and central nervous system (CNS). ...

Neonatal lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease resulting from the trans-placental passage of maternal anti-SSA/Ro, anti-SSB/La, and less frequently anti-RNP antibodies to the foetus. At the time of diagnosis 50% of mothers are asymptomatic. Neonatal manifestations of this multisystem disease may include congenital heart block, cutaneous lesions and haematological abnormalities. We presen...

This communication records the results of blood investigations in infantile sepsis. This condition includes numerous septic manifestations, such as skin lesions (abscesses; boils; pustules), otorrhoea, gastroenteritis, pyuria, etc., occurring soon after birth and up to end of first year. The work on this subject is comparatively new, as indeed, is infantile haematology in general, nor does lite...

In the majority of cases of bacterial endocarditis the causal organism is sensitive to benzylpenicillin (Finland and Barnes, I970). Thus this antibiotic is widely used in the treatment of endocarditis and its curative value and low toxicity are well proved. It is common for benzylpenicillin to be given in large doses by the intravenous route for a period of weeks to ensure eradication of the in...

We report a case of systemic mastocytosis (SM) presenting as ascites and portal hypertension. The haematological picture at presentation was suggestive of chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia. Initial difficulties in making a diagnosis of SM were encountered as the cutaneous signs were atypical. The correct diagnosis was established only after tissue sections were appropriately stained for mast cel...

Acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau (ACH) is a rare manifestation of pustular psoriasis which may considerably disable affected patients. In this case report we confirm the efficacy of acitretin in the treatment of ACH and, in addition, describe the course of the myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) from which the patient was suffering. During acitretin treatment, there was a transformation into acu...

The purpose of this case report is to increase the knowledge about bone metastatic pattern in gastric cancer. A 59-year-old man presented with headache three years after a total gastrectomy for signet-ring cell carcinoma. Head computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple osteolytic lesions of the cranial vault and base, consistent with metastatic or haematological disease....
