Recovery of force production after an intense bout of activity may sometimes take several days, especially at low activation frequencies ('low frequency fatigue'). This slow recovery can also be observed in isolated muscle and single muscle fibres. The origin of the force deficit is failure of

The aims of this study were to evaluate the serological response to treatment with staphylococcal vaccine in fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue syndrome patients and to explore the relationship between serological response and clinical effect. Twenty-eight patients, half of whom served as controls, were

BACKGROUND Many cases of acute human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (AHI) present to the Emergency Department (ED). Early diagnosis allows a patient to modify their behavior and seek early treatment. The Emergency Physician should know that the antibody response may be absent. OBJECTIVE We

We evaluated the physiological, histochemical, and biochemical consequences of inhibiting contractile activity in rat skeletal muscles with botulinum toxin A (BTX). Contractile activity was entirely eliminated 12-18 h after a single, focal, intramuscular injection of BTX into the rat tibialis

BACKGROUND Atypical antipsychotic agents are associated with diabetes mellitus and pancreatitis. Aripiprazole, a new antipsychotic, has never been implicated to cause either diabetes mellitus or pancreatitis. We present a patient who developed diabetes mellitus after being started on

Raltegravir, as the first HIV integrase inhibitor, has been used and prospectively monitored since 2010 in our HIV outpatient centre, where over 1,200 patients are monitored. The aim of our report is to perform an interim assessment of the background, the safety profile and the clinical-laboratory

To study the effects of Bacillus lincheniformis feeding frequency on the survival and growth of Haliotis discus hannai abalone, we measured the expression levels of nonspecific immune genes and monitored the anti-Vibrio parahaemolyticus immune reaction. H. discus hannai (shell length: 32.75 ± 2.63

Treatment for chronic hepatitis C depends on the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype and the patient's clinical characteristics. A fixed-dose combination of ledipasvir + sofosbuvir has been authorised in the European Union for adults with HCV genotype 1 (HCV-1), HCV-3 or HCV-4 infection. Ledipasvir

Intermittent claudication (IC) is leg muscle pain, cramping and fatigue brought on by exercise and is the primary symptom of peripheral arterial disease. The goals of pharmacotherapy for IC are to increase the walking capacity/quality of life and to decrease rates of amputation. In 1988,

BACKGROUND Orteronel is an investigational, partially selective inhibitor of CYP 17,20-lyase in the androgen signalling pathway, a validated therapeutic target for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. We assessed orteronel in chemotherapy-naive patients with metastatic

BACKGROUND Severe hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) as well as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) are complications of type 1 diabetes (T1DM). HTG is an exceedingly rare complication in the pediatric population and herein we report a case of HTG at new-onset T1DM in DKA and discuss management and potential

After a bout of intense exercise, especially in untrained persons recovery of muscle force is often slow. Force depression is much more marked at low frequencies of stimulation than at high frequencies ("low-frequency fatigue') and recovery can take more than 1 day. Delayed force recovery is also

BACKGROUND Drug resistance continues to be a major challenge in the treatment of HIV-1 infection. Virtually all currently available antiretroviral medications inhibit the viral reverse transcriptase or protease. Enfuvirtide is the first fusion inhibitor approved by the US Food and Drug

Ingestion of CLA activates beta-oxidation and causes loss of body fat in rodents. We investigated the effects of dietary CLA on endurance capacity and energy metabolism during exercise in mice. Five-week-old male BALB/c mice were fed a control diet containing 1.0% linoleic acid or a diet containing

Hemochromatosis is a disorder of iron overload whereby there is toxic deposition of iron in various tissues and organs of the body. It can either be hereditary or secondary to some other underlying cause. Patients with mutations in the HFE gene are often predisposed to developing this disorder. It
