STUDY POPULATION. This study was a nonrandomized controlled, parallel-group intervention trial with an active study population of 50 consecutively enrolled children aged 5 to 18 years. The study children underwent egg OIT after confirming immunoglobulin (Ig)E-mediated egg allergy by using a double-blind, placebo-controlled egg food challenge (DBPCFC). The control group included 32 children who ...

Barros and Austin (1) have reported on the inhibition of ovulation in the golden hamster by parenteral actinomycin D (AMD). During studies aimed at characterising the meiotic chromosome damage induced by various inhibitors of DNA, RNA, and protein, the author has made some observations in vitro and in vivo on the effects of AMD on female mouse meiosis . These data extend the information of Barr...

The present report describes outbreaks of viral hemorrhagic disease in domestic rabbits. The provisional diagnosis was reached by feature of postmortem lesions and result of experimental inoculation of liver homogenate in adult and juvenile albino laboratory rabbits. The presence of etiologic agent in the homogenate from spontaneous and experimentally infected rabbits was demonstrated by agglut...

Rabbit antibodies to five antigens (AJ** 29, 35, 43, 64, and 80 kDa) derived from the ovaries of Anopheles stephensi tended to reduce the number of eggs produced. Ingestion of anti-mosquito ovary antibodies did not show a detectable effect on the mortality of mosquitoes. Antisera raised against An. stephensi ovaries showed cross-reactivity in other tissues and in the ovaries of other Anopheles ...
