International Veterinary Epilepsy Task Force consensus proposal: Medical treatment of canine epilepsy in Europe [PDF]
In Europe, the number of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) licensed for dogs has grown considerably over the last years. Nevertheless, the same questions remain, which include, 1) when to start treatment, 2) which drug is best used initially, 3) which ...

Genetic predisposition to helminthiases
Helminthes accompany human beings from the early period of the formation, there is a long-term coevolution between parasite and human, helminthes represent a major selective force for human immune genes. Data on genetic control of the intensity and clinical traits of helminthinfection in different populations, including results obtained by whole-genome

Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis. A Report of 4 Cases Occurring in One Family [PDF]
We describe slipped capital femoral epiphysis in 4 members of a black, obese family, who were all first-degree relatives. The aetiology of slipped capital femoral epiphysis is unknown, although it is thought to be multifactorial.

Genetics of melanoma predisposition [PDF]
Predisposition to melanoma is genetically heterogeneous. Two high penetrance susceptibility genes, CDKN2A and CDK4, have so far been identified and mapping is ongoing to localize and identify others. With the advent of a catalogue of millions of potential DNA polymorphisms, attention is now also being focused on identification of genes that confer a ...

A multi-factorial genetic model for prognostic assessment of high risk melanoma patients receiving adjuvant interferon [PDF]
Purpose: IFNa was the first cytokine to demonstrate anti-tumor activity in advanced melanoma. Despite the ability of high-dose IFNa reducing relapse and mortality by up to 33%, large majority of patients experience side effects and toxicity which ...
