The aim of this study was to evaluate and to compare the possible inflammatory changes by screening acute phase proteins concentrations in healthy bitches subjected to ovariohysterectomy. Minimally invasive and conventional (laparotomy) ovariohysterectomies were performed in 17 client-owned adult female ...
La elevada incidencia de los efectos adversos provocados por el uso crónico de antiinflamatorios, ha dirigido la búsqueda de terapias alternativas o coadyuvantes basadas en la utilización de plantas medicinales. En Bolivia las especies vegetales Xanthium spinosum L. y Urtica urens L. son empleadas tra...
La osteomielitis crónica multifocal recurrente fue recientemente clasificada dentro de las enfermedades autoinflamatorias, caracterizadas por episodios de inflamación sistèmica, que incluyen indicadores serológicos de inflamación, en ausencia de autoanticuerpos o agentes patógenos. La característi...
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate whether methylene blue (MB) could minimize the effects of ischemia-reperfusion injury in the nonischemic lung on a lung transplantation rodent model. Methods: Forty female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 20 donors and 20 recipients. The 20 recipient rats were divid...
ABSTRACT Introduction: In chronic kidney disease (CKD), it has been suggested that alterations within the gut are associated with an inflammatory state and uremic toxicity. Studies suggest that uremia may impair the function of the intestinal barrier via the promotion of increased intestinal permeabilit...
INTRODUCTION: High-intensity resistance exercises (RE) cause an inflammatory response that reduces functionality. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of Cold Water Immersion (CWI) on leukocytosis, oxidative stress parameters, inflammatory markers and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) resulting from a R...
SUMMARY INTRODUCTION Malnutrition-Inflammation-Atherosclerosis Syndrome is very frequent in patients with chronic kidney disease on haemodialysis. In these patients, the inflammation associated with malnutrition is observed by the Malnutrition-Inflammation Score. OBJECTIVE To analyse the relationship...
