14. PRECONDITIONING OF ORGAN DONORS WITH LOW LEVELS OF CARBON MONOXIDE REDUCES GRAFT IMMUNOGENICITY AND IMPROVES LONGTERM ALLOGRAFT FUNCTION
Background: Chronic rejection remains the major obstacle for successful transplantation, and to date there is no effective treatment. Events occurring prior to organ transplantation such as brain death, harvesting procedure, and ischemia-reperfusion injury lead to unspecific inflammatory damages danger signals - that increase graft immunogenicity and reduce

15. Computed tomography monitoring and mensuration of different cryotherapy techniques on the skin of Beagle dogs and their association with necrosis assessment through histopathological analysis / Monitorização e mensuração tomográfica de diferentes técnicas de crioterapia em pele de cães da raça Beagle, e sua relação com as medidas da necrose estimadas pela histopatologia
The use of cold by Medicine is a very old practice, initially used empirically, which had significant advances in the XIV and XX centuries, developing along with Physics. The appearance of new techniques and equipment turned cryotherapy into an important option in the treatment of benign and malignant neoplasms in different organs (such as the liver, the pro

16. Somatic gene therapy for hypertension
Gene therapy for hypertension is needed for the next generation of antihypertensive drugs. Current drugs, although effective, have poor compliance, are expensive and short-lasting (hours or one day). Gene therapy offers a way to produce long-lasting antihypertensive effects (weeks, months or years). We are currently using two strategies: a) antisense oligode

18. Two randomized controlled trials of zinc gluconate lozenge therapy of experimentally induced rhinovirus colds.
The therapeutic efficacy of zinc gluconate lozenge therapy in experimentally induced rhinovirus infection was assessed in two randomized controlled trials in susceptible adult volunteers. In trial 1, lozenges containing either zinc gluconate (23 mg of elemental zinc) or placebo were given 36 h after nasal inoculation of rhinovirus type 39 and administered ei

19. Management of massive haemoptysis with the rigid bronchoscope and cold saline lavage.
Twelve successive patients with massive haemoptysis were treated by emergency rigid bronchoscopy and lavage of the bleeding lung with cold saline. All patients stopped bleeding during the procedure and all blood and clot was evacuated from the accessible airways. The bleeding source was localised to a lobe in seven cases, and lateralised in the remaining fiv

20. William Harvey and his gout.
In William Harvey's day almost any or every arthropathy was termed gout. This is evident in the case histories of some of his patients and in his own case, where his own cold water therapy would suggest the correct diagnosis was not gout but erythromelalgia (Weir Mitchell's disease).

21. Upregulation of heme oxygenase-1 protects genetically fat Zucker rat livers from ischemia/reperfusion injury
We examined the effects of upregulation of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in steatotic rat liver models of ex vivo cold ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. In the model of ischemia/isolated perfusion, treatment of genetically obese Zucker rats with the HO-1 inducer cobalt protoporphyrin (CoPP) or with adenoviral HO-1 (Ad-HO-1) significantly improved portal venous bl

22. High-Dose, Short-Duration, Early Valacyclovir Therapy for Episodic Treatment of Cold Sores: Results of Two Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Studies
Oral valacyclovir is better absorbed than oral acyclovir, increasing acyclovir bioavailability three- to fivefold. This provides the opportunity to explore whether high systemic acyclovir concentrations are effective in the treatment of cold sores (herpes labialis). Two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies were conducted. Subjects were provid

23. Immunoglobulin and complement inclusions in peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes of patients with bronchial carcinoma
Jansen, H. M., The, T. H., de Gast, G. C., Huiges, H. A., Esselink, M. T., Van der Wal, A. M., and Orie, N. G. M.Thorax, 32, 706-710. Immunoglobulin and complement inclusions in peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes of patients with bronchial carcinoma. Inclusions in peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) of 23 patients with bronchial ca

24. Liquid Chromatography Assay for Routine Monitoring of Cellular Ribavirin Levels in Blood
Ribavirin-induced hemolytic anemia is one cause for cessation of combination therapy with alpha interferon 2b and ribavirin for hepatitis C infection. Determining cellular ribavirin levels in blood, including the levels of its phosphorylated metabolites, might be useful for predicting ribavirin-induced anemia, because the metabolites accumulate in erythrocyt
