Secondary to the offending agent, lymphoplasmacytic or inflammatory bowel disease-like colitis is not uncommon in such patients. Since the gut is one of the largest lymphoid organs and thus prone to the EBV infection, it is crucial to identify whether EBV is involved in the gut inflammatory ...
Pelvic inflammatory disease can be caused by a number of organisms, including Chlamydia, and presents with pelvic pain and discharge. Findings that contribute to the diagnosis of PID include fever greater than 101° F, cervical or vaginal mucopurulent discharge, abundant WBCs on saline preparation ...
Inflammatory enterocolitis can be primary (inflammatory bowel disease, vasculitis) or secondary (radiation therapy, graft versus host disease etc.). Ischemic colitis and enteritis can result from arterial compromise, low flow states that globally reduce perfusion or venous insufficiency. The CT appearance...
In the kidney, the infection is associated with mononuclear interstitial inflammatory infiltrates and tubular atrophy, findings that can be difficult to distinguish from acute transplant rejection. Besides, the cytopathic changes observed in BK virus infection are not pathognomonic and can be observed ...
Inflammatory bowel disease and anal cancer Gastrointestinal tract inflammation, whether chronic or recurrent, is linked to inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) [86]. IBD are characterized by an immunological reaction in the body. Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are the two most fre...
In mouse colitis models, beneficial bacteria reduce inflammatory cyto- kines, normalize gut permeability, and reinforce the epithelial barrier[124]. Recently, several studies have indicated that these effects may be mediated, at least in part, by bacterial-secreted OMVs[124-126]. For example, ...
In patients with rectal exposure, the secondary stage primarily consists of proctitis or proctocolitis, with histological findings that may be indistinguishable from inflammatory bowel disease. LGV may also be asymptomatic. The third stage occurs if the infection is untreated and consists of s...
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an important emerging pathogen producing significant morbidity in immunosuppressed patients. HEV has been detrimental to solid organ transplant (SOT) patients, cancer patients, and HIV-positive patients, where chronic HEV infec
In the present study, we determined an expression profile pattern of inflammatory microRNAs in the blood of pediatric non-infectious uveitis patients and compared it with previous studies performed on samples from adult patients. We also summarized for the first time the molecular background and revea...
