OBJECTIVE
This review focuses on water shift and oedema in acute brain injury, with particular aspects on pathophysiology of water movements, the role of aquaporins and the potential of new therapies. This review reports on update of both significant experimental and clinical findings on factors
Deposition and aggregation of lachrymal proteins on the contact lens surface can promote bacterial adherence. Lysozyme is the major tear protein and is also mainly responsible for the formation of protein deposits on contact lenses. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) prevent protein
Water-insoluble alpha-glucans are synthesized from sucrose by glucosyltransferase-I of mutans streptococci and play an important role in the development of dental plaque. Several types of beta-glucans in fungal cell wall components and water-soluble alpha-glucans from Streptococcus mutans are known
Ozonized water increases oxygen local tension. The ozone by itself produces inflammatory reactions in lung epithelium. The action of ozonized water during the inflammatory process was investigated. In rat paw edema induced by carrageenin, the inflammatory process was stimulated by ozonized water
Chronic inflammation, the associated cardiovascular disease, and attendant high mortality remain huge problems in the HD population. Determining the predominant causal factors in the triggering and maintenance of this inflammatory state is of paramount importance in formulating treatment strategies
Water influences skin inflammation of the external auditory canal. The common term for this illness is "swimmer's ear". Contributory factors are length of exposure to water, type of water and water pollution. The aim of the study was to compare risks for contracting the disease between patients with
As part of an epidemiological survey of risk factors for trachoma in 20 villages in the United Republic of Tanzania, we investigated the relationship of village water pumps, distance to water source, and quantity of household water to the risk of inflammatory trachoma. We also evaluated whether
A number of ocular diseases can be attributed to contaminated water and we have coined a term "Water-related ocular diseases (WRODs)" to denote this wide-spectrum of conditions. WRODs are directly related to human contact with water and can occur through toxic, allergic, inflammatory or infective
This experiment investigated the effects of 24-h feed or water deprivation on hay intake, metabolic, and inflammatory responses in growing beef heifers. Forty Angus × Hereford heifers were ranked by initial BW (BW = 275 ± 6 kg) and age (278 ± 6 d) and randomly allocated to 20 drylot pens (2
BACKGROUND
Measurements of the T2 decay curve provide estimates of total water content and myelin water fraction in white matter in-vivo, which may help in understanding the pathological progression of multiple sclerosis (MS).
METHODS
Thirty-three MS patients (24 relapsing remitting, 8 secondary
Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) assesses eosinophilic inflammation of the airways, but FENO values are also influenced by oral nitric oxide (NO). The aim of this pilot study was to measure FENO and compare the effect of two different mouthwashes on FENO and analyse the duration of the effect.
