Arginine-genotype interactions and immune status
Nutrition Research, 2001The effects of arginine on selective immune responses were investigated in a high arginine-requiring (HA) and low arginine-requiring (LA) strain of chickens. Female chickens from these strains were fed diet containing a nutritionally inadequate level of arginine (0.53% arginine diet) or a surfeit level of arginine (1.53% arginine diet) for 2 weeks ...

Status of immune mediators in fibromyalgia
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2008Fibromyalgia (FM) is a form of nonarticular rheumatism characterized by long-term (> 3 months) and widespread musculoskeletal pain. However, the biophysiology of FM has remained elusive, and the treatment remains mainly empirical. There are numerous hypotheses about the pathophysiology of chronic widespread pain and FM; one includes a possible role of ...

The Immune Status of Healthy Centenarians
Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1984ABSTRACT: The immune status of 17 healthy individuals 100–103 years of age (centenarians) was investigated. Qualitative values for immunoglobulins IgG, IgM, IgA, and IgE were within normal ranges for subjects more than 60 years of age with the exception of elevated IgM in one individual.

Overcoming Challenges to Childhood Immunizations Status
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2015Vaccines are one of the greatest public health achievements, preventing both mortality and morbidity. However, overall immunization rates are still below the 90% target for Healthy People 2020. There remain significant disparities in immunization rates between children of different racial/ethnic groups, as well as among economically disadvantaged ...

Cytomegalovirus Immunization: Status, Prospects, and Problems
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1980The cytomegaloviruses (CMV), members of the herpesvirus group, are widely disseminated; however, among healthy, nonpregnant adults these viruses are not usually responsible for serious illness or disability. However, CMV infections associated with pregnancy are an important cause of prenatal infection and are significantly associated with sensorineural

Iron status and cellular immune competence
Blood Reviews, 1988There is increasing evidence that both iron overload and iron deficiency are associated with significant abnormalities of immune function. In diseases associated with iron overload there is increased susceptibility to both infection and neoplasia. The precise mechanisms are still being unravelled but iron overload has been shown to impair antigen ...

Immune Status and Mesothelioma
2006Although there is a considerable body of published literature concerning the putative role of immune status in the pathogenesis and progression of common malignancies such as lung and breast cancers, this area of research previously had been relatively neglected with respect to malignant mesothelioma, a comparatively uncommon tumor.

GENERAL IMMUNE STATUS IN CANCER THERAPY
Medical Journal of Australia, 1975Theoretical considerations in immunotherapy, such as the timing of challenge, which could rank second to reduction of tumour volume in producing lasting regressions, are outlined and illustrate the need for tests to monitor immune status. Estimation of immunosuppression, in order to define cancer therapy schedules providing least interference with what

Immune Status of the Malnourished Host
Journal of Tropical Pediatrics, 1979The severely malnourished child with marasmus or kwashiorkor has an increased morbidity and mortality secondary to his increased susceptibility to infection1–3. Children develop these syndromes as primary and secondary disease states. Children develop marasmus as a result of severe deprivation of both protein and calories, leading to growth retardation,
