Mesoamerica is well known for the Mayan civilization, which flourished in this region during pre-Columbian times and made use of plant diversity for medicinal purposes. Currently, there are 21 Mayan ethnic groups in Guatemala, including the Q'eqchi'. The use of medicinal plants is still prevalent
Eight-five of 816 (10.7%) students attending a primary school in Central Thailand were examined and found infected with Fasciolopsis buski. All of students ate fresh water lily stems and most ate other fresh water plants including caltrop, water cress and morning glory. The 85 students were given
We studied clinical effects and safety of ceftibuten (7432-S, CETB), a new oral cephem antibiotic, against chronic complicated urinary tract infections in 9 cases and bacterial prostatitis in 10 cases. CETB was administered at a daily dose of 400-600 mg divided into twice or 3 times for a duration
This paper examines the relationship between clinical manifestations and parasitaemia in relation to malaria endemicity. Discriminant analysis, showed that fever alone can detect 74.4% of the parasite positive cases and the inclusion of other symptoms like headache, vomiting, nausea, bodyache and
Data from post-mortem and field studies were obtained that discussed poisoning in ostriches following ingestion of toxic plants. From the notes, all plants studied caused death in ostriches and there was systemic organ damage. Poisoning from Sarcostemma viminale (Melktou) resulted in beak patting,
The sympathetic nervous system maintains and regulates arterial pressure and tissue perfusion, via control of cardiac output and vasomotor tone. Sympatho-vascular-mediated increases in blood pressure are effected by arterioloconstriction, which causes an increase in afterload, and/or
The effect of RCMF-magnetic therapy apparatus on signal substances was studied. The radioimmunoassay (RIA) suggested that the magnetic field increased beta-endorphin markedly in plasma. ELISA indicated that the magnetic field inhibited vomiting reaction induced by chemotherapy drug, with reversible
BACKGROUND
The New York City (NYC) Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has operated a syndromic surveillance system based on emergency department (ED) chief-complaint data since November 2001. This system was created for early detection of infectious-disease outbreaks, either natural or
The pathogenicity of hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus isolated from the brain of each of 5 pigs with clinical signs and microscopic lesions of encephalomyelitis (1 pig from each of 5 naturally infected herbs) was tested under experimental conditions. Each isolant was administered
Pharmacokinetic and clinical studies of ceftizoxime suppository (CZX-S) were performed in 10 children with the following results. CZX-S attained a peak serum concentration of 6.85 micrograms/ml 30 minutes after dosing with the drug 5.6 mg/kg (one suppository of CZX-S contains 250 mg of CZX in
In a village of 841 inhabitants, we were able to examine 553 subjects, 357 of whom had urinary egg excretion. The patients were treated with a single dose of 35 mg/kg oltipraz which was given under surveillance together with either whole milk or herrings in oil. The tolerance of the product was very
Seed of Adonis microcarpa (pheasant's eye) fed at 5.6 g/kg of the diet induced virtually total feed refusal within 3 d in growing and finishing pigs. It also caused vomiting, rapid and shallow breathing and death in a minority. These effects were probably caused by cardiac glycosides whose structure
In the last few years, there has been growing interest in the use of cyclosporin to treat canine skin diseases. Cyclosporin exhibits potent immunomodulating properties that reflect its ability to block the transcription of cytokines genes in activated T lymphocytes. Cyclosporin also inhibits a
