Penicillin is a potent topical sensitizer and may cause contact dermatitis (Levine 1960 a Fellner 1976) it is therefore no longer used in ointments. Several other cutaneous manifestations of penicillin allergy, such as fixed drug eruption, erythema multiforme, the Stevens-Johnson syndrome, exfoliative dermatitis, epidermal necrolysis, erythema nodosum and cutaneous necrotizing angiitis have been described (Fellner 1976 Soter and Austen 1978 Wintraub et al. 1979 De Swar-TE 1972). The precise immunological mechanisms of these various forms of cutaneous reactions are usually not known. [Pg.449]

Among pulmonary manifestations of drug allergy, therapeutic or professional (factory workers) inhalation of penicillins may lead to asthma (Rudzki et al. 1966 Davies et al. 1974), while the occurrence of pulmonary infiltrates with eosinophilia has also been reported (Reichlin et al. 1953). [Pg.449]

The nonallergic Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction following use of penicillins has become a rare event (Butterly and Fishman 1972 Gudjonsson 1972 Dewdney 1980), while the mechanisms of isolated penicillin-induced fever (Cluff and Johnson 1964 Chusid and Atkins 1972) are still under discussion. [Pg.449]

Anaphylactic reactions occur most commonly in adults between the ages of 20 and 49 (Idsoe et al. 1968), but may also occur in infants (Idsoe 1958 Matheson [Pg.449]

Interval between positive skin test to PPL and challenge with PN variable, often longer than 1 year [Pg.452]


One more experimental result, which is important for PT is as follows. Only polar liquids fill conical capillaries from both sides. We used various penetrants to fill conical defects Pion , LZh-6A , LZhT , LUM-9 etc. It was established that only the penetrants containing polar liquid as the basic liquid component (various alcohols, water and others) manifest two-side filling phenomenon. This result gives one more confirmation of the physical mechanism of the phenomenon, based on liquid film flow, because the disjoining pressure strongly depends just on the polarity of a liquid. [Pg.618]

As shown in Chap. 7, shock compression introduces large numbers of defects which in turn cause substantial increases in solid state reactivity. Such shock activation is obviously critical to the process. One of the most direct effects of the mechanical deformation is the removal of oxides or other surface films from the surfaces of the powders. It is well recognized that such surface films can greatly inhibit chemical reaction. The very large mechanical deformation would be expected to substantially damage, if not completely remove, such films. Other manifestations of shock activation are shown in the next chapter. Effects have been shown that represent many orders of magnitude of change in solid state reactivity. [Pg.146]

Neuropathology of AIDS is thought be a result of complex interactions of both viral and host factors that directly or indirectly cause neuronal loss as well as other manifestations associated with neuroAIDS (Jones and Power 2006). The HIV envelope... [Pg.232]

Figure 3.3 teaches some additional and important features of dose-response relationships. Such relationships are depicted for two different compounds (A and B), and responses in two different species, rats and guinea pigs, are shown for compound A. Because the dose-response relationship for compound B is to the right of that shown for A, we can conclude that B is less toxic than A, at least for the particular response plotted here (according to our principles, such a pattern could he reversed for some other manifestation of the toxicity of A and B). As seen in the figure, toxic responses to B consistently occur only at higher doses than they do for A, so B is less toxic. [Pg.74]

Even if there is little evidence that maternal toxicity (defined as reductions in maternal body weight) is consistently associated with major malformations, there is clear evidence that substantial reduction in maternal weight is linked with other manifestations of developmental toxicity. These manifestations include decreased fetal weights, and skeletal anomalies (e.g., wavy ribs) in rats and decreased fetal weights, post implantation loss, abortions, and skeletal defects in rabbits (e.g., unossified sternebrae, metatarsals, metacarpals, or caudal vertebrae). [Pg.317]

If decreasing dopaminergic activity benefits psychosis, what is the effect of increasing dopaminergic activity Potentiation of DA by a variety of mechanisms is a common denominator for inducing paranoia, hallucinations, and other manifestations of psychosis. For example ... [Pg.52]

Other manifestations of the disorder include persistent avoidance of stimuli associated with the trauma and symptoms of increased arousal, neither of which were present before the incident. To qualify for this diagnosis, a symptomatic period of at least 1 month is required (see Appendix I and Appendix J). [Pg.266]

The treatment of established angina and other manifestations of myocardial ischemia includes the corrective measures previously described as well as treatment to prevent or relieve symptoms. Treatment of symptoms is based on reduction of myocardial oxygen... [Pg.264]

The primary signs and symptoms of all types of heart failure include tachycardia, decreased exercise tolerance, shortness of breath, peripheral and pulmonary edema, and cardiomegaly. Decreased exercise tolerance with rapid muscular fatigue is the major direct consequence of diminished cardiac output. The other manifestations result from the attempts by the body to compensate for the intrinsic cardiac defect. [Pg.303]

The THEiTHF + 5aTHF ratio is commonly greater than 15 in these disorders, the opposite to AME syndrome. While the ratio of saturated steroids demonstrates a high 11-oxo l 1/1-hydroxy ratio, this is not the case for steroids retaining a - -4-ene structure. The F E ratio is normal or elevated (i.e., > 1 Table 5.3.9). Steroid profile analysis also typically reveals an elevated excretion of DHEA and other androgen metabolites. Clearly the excessive ACTH production resultant from an apparent cortisol deficiency is responsible for the elevated adrenal androgen production, which in turn is responsible for female virilization and other manifestations of polycystic ovary syndrome. [Pg.589]

In natural systems there are two types of transport phenomena (1) transport by random motion, and (2) transport by directed motion. Both types occur at a wide range of scales from molecular to global distances, from microseconds to geological times. Well-known examples of these types are molecular diffusion (random transport) and advection in water currents (directed transport). There are many other manifestations such as dispersion as a random process (see Chapters 24 and 25) or settling of suspended particles due to gravitation as a directed transport. For simplicity we will subdivide such transport processes into those we will call diffusive for ones caused by random motions and those called advective for ones resulting from directed motions. [Pg.779]

When atoms are placed in a magnetic field, the energy levels of the electrons split into more than one component These splittings are small (no more than 10 3 eV, even in strong magnetic fields), but can be seen in the line spectra of atoms this is called the Zeeman effect. There are other manifestations. For example, in an inhomogeneous (i.e. non-uniform) field, a beam of atoms can be deflected, and splits into several components this is the Stem-Gerlach experiment, and is illustrated in Fig. 5.5. [Pg.77]

As mentioned previously, the causal connection between sleep difficulties and anxiety disorders are often impossible to determine in the clinical domain. The evaluation and treatment of sleep-specific pathologies may be as important as the evaluation and treatment of the anxiety disorders in these cases. Since hyperarousal is a common factor associated with both anxiety and sleep disturbances, the treatments for sleep problems are often similar to those targeting the reduction of worry, tension, and other manifestations of anxiety [73,74], However, treatments have also been developed to target specific aspects of certain anxiety disorders or sleep pathologies. [Pg.86]

At the present time, the fruitful cooperation of a biophysicist and a mathematician (Zhabotinskii and Korzukhin) has led to the decoding of kinetic oscillations. Certainly, a happy combination of various fruits in one personality is also possible, an example of such a person being Van t Hoff. ("This double inclination to mathematics on the one hand and to chemistry on the other manifested itself in all my scientific interests .) Franck-Kamenetskii, Horiuti, Semenov and Temkin are also examples of such a combination. ... [Pg.59]

Severe OP-poisoning is evidenced by the rapid onset of unconsciousness, local or generalized seizures, incontinence and other manifestations of a cholinergic crisis. Further indications of severe intoxication may include a slow heartbeat, tearing, toxic psychosis... [Pg.385]
