Kidney dysfunction is an independent predictor of mortality in both adults and children with severe malaria. In the largest studies of paediatric severe malaria, approximately 25% of children had kidney dysfunction and these patients accounted for roughly 50% of total deaths.
Although the
Gall bladder status among children with chronic haemolytic anemia attending to Assuit University Children Hospital Hemolysis is defined as the premature destruction of red blood cells (RBCs) (a shortened RBC life span). Anemia results when the rate of destruction exceeds the capacity of the marrow
Each subject will receive one infusion of autologous, radiolabeled and BioRBC labeled INTERCEPT RBCs (Test RBCs) and one infusion of autologous BioRBC labeled untreated RBCs (Control RBCs) concomitantly. Each infusion will be approximately 20 mL, i.e., 10 mL of 51-chromium labeled RBC, and 10 mL of
1. OBJECTIVE- To assess the efficacy of co-administered chloroquine+primaquine (CQ+PQ) vs.CQ alone (PQ being postponed up to day 28 of CQ therapy) as a schizontocidal therapy (28-day follow-up) and as radical cure among uncomplicated P. vivax malaria (6-month follow-up). Specifically:
- To measure
Background
Chronic cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is mediated by monoclonal cold-reactive autoantibodies that bind to erythrocyte surface antigens, causing hemagglutination and complement-mediated hemolysis. Anemia is severe in one-third of patients (hemoglobin level 8.0 g/dL or lower). Cold-induced
Study Hypothesis:Study hypothesis is that
1. There is no difference in efficacy and severe persistent hypertension after intravenous Labetalol versus Hydralazine.
2. There is no difference in adverse maternal and fetal effects.
Patients diagnosed to have severe hypertension(on repeat measurement of
Mortality in severe malaria remains ~15% despite the best available parasiticidal antimalarial therapy, intravenous artesunate. Adjunctive therapies in combination with anti-parasitic drugs have the potential to improve outcomes. However, currently there are no proven adjunctive therapies for the
1. GENERALITIES
1.1 Clinical grade production of cRBC In this study the cRBC is both the active principle and the final product subjected to radioactive chromium labeling.
The quantity of 5x109 cRBC to be reinjected is determined by the necessity to have a quantity of radioactivity lying between
The success of BMT as a curative option for patients with malignancies is frequently limited by the inability to identify an appropriate donor in time for transplantation.
Transplantations utilizing umbilical cord blood stem cells are increasingly successful. Data suggest that there are fewer and

Title: Plasma and abscess fluid pharmacokinetics of cefpirome and moxifloxacin single dose and multiple dose administration.
Background: Extensive research in the field of abscess treatment has established a claim for invasive drainage as the most efficient means of resolving suppurative lesions. In
