Hyaluronic acid and platelet-rich plasma, a new therapeutic alternative for scleroderma patients: a prospective open-label study

2019

Abstract Background Systemic sclerosis is a systemic connective tissue disease characterized by endothelium damage, fibrosis, and subsequent atrophy of the skin. Perioral fibrosis produces a characteristic microstomia together with microcheilia, both of which cause severe difficulties and affects patients’ daily life, such as eating and oral hygiene. Since there are no effective and specific therapies, we have aimed at evaluating the response to filler injections of hyaluronic acid together with platelet-rich plasma. Methods Ten female patients aged between 18 and 70 were included in this study. Each patient was treated with three filler injections of hyaluronic acid and platelet-rich plasm…

Pharmacological interventions for somatoform disorders in adults

2014

BACKGROUND: Somatoform disorders are characterised by chronic, medically unexplained physical symptoms (MUPS). Although different medications are part of treatment routines for people with somatoform disorders in clinics and private practices, there exists no systematic review or meta-analysis on the efficacy and tolerability of these medications. We aimed to synthesise to improve optimal treatment decisions.OBJECTIVES: To assess the effects of pharmacological interventions for somatoform disorders (specifically somatisation disorder, undifferentiated somatoform disorder, somatoform autonomic dysfunction, and pain disorder) in adults.SEARCH METHODS: We searched the Cochrane Depression, Anxi…

Managing Adult-onset Still's disease: The effectiveness of high-dosage of corticosteroids as first-line treatment in inducing the clinical remission.…

2019

Abstract To assess the effectiveness of the treatment with high dosage of corticosteroids (CCSs), as first-line therapy, in inducing remission in naïve Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) patients compared with low dosage of CCSs, after 6 months. To further evaluate the rate of patients maintaining the remission and the rate of CCSs discontinuation, after additional 12 months of follow-up. A retrospective evaluation of patients prospectively followed was designed to compare the rate of clinical remission in naïve AOSD patients treated with high dosages of CCSs (0.8–1 mg/kg/day of prednisone-equivalent) or low dosage of CCSs (0.2–0.3 mg/kg/day of prednisone-equivalent), after 6 months. An add…

Purification and characterisation of a plasmin-sensitive surface protein of Staphylococcus aureus.

1996

Certain methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains contain a 230-kDa cell-wall protein which is not present on the surface of other staphylococci. The presence of this 230-kDa protein is associated with a negative test result in commercial assays designed to detect fibrinogen-binding proteins and/or protein A on the staphylococcal surface. We have purified and partially characterised the 230-kDa protein from a lysostaphin digest of a non-agglutinating methicillin-resistant S. aureus strain. Partial amino acid sequence data obtained from the purified protein did not reveal any significant similarities to known proteins which indicates that the protein is novel. The 230-kDa protein w…

Characterisation of serotonin transport mechanisms in rainbow trout peripheral blood lymphocytes: role in PHA-induced lymphoproliferation

1999

Abstract AbstractIn this study we investigated the serotonin transport mechanisms in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) peripheral blood lymphocytes We have observed that the transport of serotonin is a membrane transport process that have the properties of a secondary active transport system The binding isotherm of [3H]-paroxetine a serotonin transport blocker demonstrated a high-affinity binding site with a positive type of cooperativity Hill coefficient being higher than unity Known specific inhibitors of the mammalian serotonin transporter significantly inhibited the uptake process in fish lymphocytes In order to demonstrate the physiological relevance of the serotonin transporter in T…

JENIS-JENIS GULMA PADA PADI SAWAH DI DAERAH TRANSMIGRASI PRAFI, MANOKWARI

2008

<em>Several weed species were observed in the rice fields of the transmigration area Prafi SP 2 during April 2006 by the State University of Papua.  The weeds were classified into three groups according to their morphology characteristics, and into four groups according to their habitat.  The weeds were preferred by the rice pests as host plant. Few weeds were host for the rice fields such as Echinochloa crusgalli, Echinochloa glaberescens and Pennisetum purpureum</em>
