lipomas are the most common benign mesenchymal tumors. they are located either subcutaneously or under the investing fascia in intramuscular or intermuscular regions. the reported frequency of intramuscular lipomas among all benign adipocytic tumors is 1.0%–5.0% and for intermuscular lipomas is 0.3%–1.9%. the frequency of these lesions is the same in all age groups, but in adults deep seated-li...

background: pain originating from intramuscular (im) injection should not be underestimated, because it can damage the nurse–patient relationship. this research aimed at answering two main questions, whether acupressure is effective on pain severity dueto im injection or not and whether pain severity in two groups is different or not. materials and methods: this research was performed in govern...

The ability to infect a volunteer with malaria in a controlled and safe manner promises to be of enormous benefit to research programs aimed at developing malaria vaccines or novel antimalaria drugs. By challenging an individual in early-stage trials with a defined number of parasites of a specific laboratory strain in a controlled clinical environment, it is possible to derive more meaningful ...

Intramuscular injection of mice with 2000 IU/g partially purified murine interferon (IFN) alpha/beta 3 h before the induction of IFN by intraperitoneally administered 3 micrograms/g poly rI:rC enhanced early IFN production. The differences between the serum IFN levels of IFN-pretreated and control animals were about 10-fold during the first 2 to 3 h of in vivo IFN production. In later stages th...

PURPOSE New rabies vaccine bait for both pets and raccoon dogs residing in Korea is needed to eradicate rabies infection among animals. In this study, we constructed a recombinant rabies virus (RABV), the ERAG3G strain, using a reverse genetics system. Then we investigated the efficacy of this strain in mice after oral administration and the safety of this strain in cats after intramuscular adm...

The rate of absorption from muscles has never yet been a subject of scientific investigation. In fact, nowhere in physiological li terature do we meet the suggestion tha t absorption from the muscles might differ from tha t of any other parenchymatous or subcutaneous tissue. Only from the serous cavities, especially the peritoneal, is it generally assumed tha t absorption takes place more rapid...

Salmonella serovar Montevideo (SM) is frequently associated with human Salmonella infections and causes gastrointestinal disease, cases are common particularly among individuals who come in close contact with live poultry or poultry meat products. To characterize SM disease in chickens, the pathogenic traits and tissue predilections of the disease were investigated. Dissemination of fluorescent...

Intramuscular hemangioma is a relatively rare, benign tumor of vascular origin, accounting for less than 1% of all hemangiomas. This paper reports a case of a 48-year-old female patient with intramuscular hemangioma in the upper lip, treated with sclerotherapy and subsequent complementary surgery.
