Ivermectin has anti-parasitic effect along with anti-viral activity against a broad range of viruses in vitro. Ivermectin was identified as an inhibitor of interaction between the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) integrase protein (IN) and the importin (IMP) α/β1 heterodimer
Multiple sclerosis (MS), the most prevalent neurological disability, is an autoimmune-mediated disorder that affects the central nervous system (CNS) and often leads to severe physical or cognitive incapacitation as well as neurological problems in young adults . Multifocal zones of inflammation due
Objectives of the study:
Primary :
1. To compare seroconversion for OPV types P1 and P3 when administered alone versus when administered with OCV on day 28 and 56 after vaccination.
2. To compare vibriocidal antibody response (based on a ≥ 4-fold rise) to OCV when administered alone versus when
Multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) is a chronic immune mediated neuropathy, which affects patients at a relatively young age and necessitates treatment with immunoglobulins (Ig) to improve and maintain muscle strength. Subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIG) therapy for MMN is equally efficacious to
A large broad of evidence has shown that traditional perioperative care have a weak scientific basis and needs to be changed. Multimodal or fast-track protocols of perioperative care for abdominal surgery have been associated with lower morbidity, lower costs and faster postoperative recovery when
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is an autoimmune neurological disorder that causes limb weakness and numbness. Many patients require immunosuppressants and plasma exchange (PLEX) to control their symptoms. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG)is also an effective treatment
Japanese encephalitis (JE) is the most important epidemic encephalitis worldwide, causing approximately 35-50,000 cases and 10-15,000 deaths annually. Half of the survivors have severe neuropsychiatric sequelae, posing a large socio-economic burden on communities that can ill afford it. JE virus
Disease background:
MM is a plasma cell tumor. It accounted for an estimated 20,180 new cases of cancer and 11,170 deaths in the United States in 2010. With a prevalence of 23 per 100,000 people, MM is an orphan disease (prevalence <5:10,000). The median age at diagnosis is 60-65 years. Although MM
Methadone maintenance therapy for the treatment of heroin addicts for more than 40 years , and there are many studies confirm its effectiveness, such as reduced heroin addiction, reduced high-risk needle use, reduced criminal activity. But methadone also had side effects such as drowsiness,
Corticosteroids are the standard initial therapy for Acute GvHD (aGVHD) after HSCT (hematopoietic stem cell transplant aka BMT) and 25-41% patients will respond to prednisone (or methylprednisolone) at a dose of 2mg/kg/day. Complete response of aGvHD is an important predictor of survival; in

1. 1 BACKGROUND
For treatment in advanced HIV infection, combination therapy with antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) is the best option under current international standards. The benefit of ARVs is best, if they are used relatively late in the course of the disease, commonly after a
Some attempts have been made to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of lopinavir using ritonavir as booster by some researchers with dosages of 400/100 and 533/133 mg (the last dosage would be achieved with an additional capsule of lopinavir/ritonavir) but the results were disappointing because AUC was
Clinical trial:
A prospective, randomized, assessor- blind, multicenter study of safety and efficacy of combined treatment of methotrexate and glucocorticoids versus glucocorticoids alone in patients with polymyositis and dermatomyositis
Tested investigational medicinal product: Methotrexate
