A case-controlled retrospective study of the causes and implications of moderate to severe leukocytosis in dogs in South Africa.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Previous studies showed that dogs with extreme leukocytosis had specific types of diseases, long hospitalization times, and high mortality rates. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine whether dogs with moderate to severe leukocytosis are likely to have similar results compared

Hypercalcemia-leukocytosis syndrome associated with lung cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hypercalcemia and leukocytosis are two of the most common paraneoplastic syndromes associated with various malignancies. Of note, concomitant manifestation of hypercalcemia and leukocytosis are occasionally observed in the same cancer patients. However, the relationship between these two

Use of albumin quotient and IgG index to differentiate blood- vs brain-derived proteins in the cerebrospinal fluid of cats with feline infectious peritonitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Inflammation of the central nervous system (CNS) is a frequent condition in cats but etiology often remains unsolved. Routine cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis can be extended through the calculation of the albumin quotient (Q(alb)), a marker of the integrity of the blood-brain barrier

Role of cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis and Haemophilus influenzae type b capsule on blood brain barrier permeability during experimental meningitis in the rat.

Only registered users can translate articles

The influence of leukocytes and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) capsule on blood brain barrier permeability (BBBP) to circulating 125I-albumin in normal and leukopenic rats was assessed after intracisternal inoculation of encapsulated (Rd-/b+/02) or unencapsulated (Rd-/b-/02) isogenic strains of

Initial characteristics of Kawasaki disease with cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis in febrile infants.

Only registered users can translate articles

To distinguish between febrile infants with cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis who are finally diagnosed with Kawasaki disease and those with enterovirus meningitis poses a diagnostic challenge. We compared clinical and laboratory features at admission between two groups of infants, aged 30-90 days, to

Low albumin gradient ascites complicating severe pseudomembranous colitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pseudomembranous colitis (PMC) is a frequently severe, sometimes fatal iatrogenic disease that is antibiotic-associated in almost all cases. The most common clinical features of PMC include abdominal pain, watery diarrhea, fever, leukocytosis, hypoalbuminemia, and hypovolemia. Ascites, not

Ischemia-modified albumin in differential diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome without ST elevation and unstable angina pectoris.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Ischemia modified albumin (IMA) was registered by the United States Food and Drug Administration as a marker of myocardial ischemia. OBJECTIVE To assess the usefulness of IMA measurement for differentiating patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with no ST elevation and patients with

Evaluation of nephelometry for albumin measurement in serum and cerebrospinal fluid: experiences with an indwelling subarachnoidal catheter system for repetitive cerebrospinal fluid collection in horses.

Only registered users can translate articles

The measurement of albumin concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum for albumin quotient (AQ) calculations in normal horses was performed by 2 methods: 1) total protein measurement, followed by electrophoresis of the samples to obtain an albumin percentage; and 2) albumin

Albumin leakage into cerebrospinal fluid of dogs lethally infected with R252 canine distemper virus.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) form nine lethally infected and three convalescent gnotobiotic dogs infected with the R252 strain of canine distemper virus (CDV) was evaluated prior to and following infection. Lethally infected dogs had a mean seven-fold increase in CSF albumin concentration compared to

Leukocytosis and hypoalbuminemia in mixed bipolar states: evidence for immune activation.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Although activation of an immune response during major depressive episodes has been reported, less is known about changes during manic and mixed bipolar episodes. METHODS Albumin and leukocyte levels were compared between subjects in manic and mixed bipolar episodes. Neutrophil, lymphocyte

Preoperative Leukocytosis in Colorectal Cancer Patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Preoperative asymptomatic leukocytosis has been reported as a factor that affects morbidity of surgical patients. We sought to identify the relationship between asymptomatic preoperative leukocytosis and postoperative complications in elective colorectal cancer surgery. METHODS The NSQIP

Leukocytosis in polycythemia vera and splenomegaly in essential thrombocythemia are independent risk factors for hemorrhage.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Long-term outcomes are favorable for patients with polycythemia vera (PV) and for patients with essential thrombocythemia (ET). However, hemorrhage is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in those patients. METHODS We retrospectively recruited 247 patients who had received a

Overexpression of IL-1beta by adenoviral-mediated gene transfer in the rat brain causes a prolonged hepatic chemokine response, axonal injury and the suppression of spontaneous behaviour.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acute brain injury induces early and transient hepatic expression of chemokines, which amplify the injury response and give rise to movement of leukocytes into the blood and subsequently the brain and liver. Here, we sought to determine whether an ongoing injury stimulus within the brain would

Biological activities of crystalline pertussigen from Bordetella pertussis.

Only registered users can translate articles

We studied various biological activities of crystalline pertussigen and found that in mice as little as 0.5 ng of pertussigen induced hypersensitivity to histamine, 8 to 40 ng induced leukocytosis, 2 ng increased production of insulin, 0.1 ng increased production of immunoglobulin E and

Bone marrow hypermetabolism on 18F-FDG PET as a survival prognostic factor in non-small cell lung cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

PET is now widely used in the diagnosis and staging of lung cancer with (18)F-FDG. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the prognostic value of diffuse bone marrow hypermetabolism along with other PET prognostic factors with respect to survival and compare them with other established prognostic
