Measles is an important cause of childhood morbidity and mortality in developing countries. Measles virus (MV) is transmitted via the respiratory route and causes systemic disease. Over the last decade, identification of new cellular receptors and studies in animal models have challenged the historic concepts of measles pathogenesis. It is thought that

Five major risk factors for osteoporosis have been identified: age, initial bone density, the menopause, bioavailability of calcium, and sporadic factors. Age appears to be the major determinant of bone mass. During a lifetime, a woman will typically lose 50% of her trabecular bone and 35% of her cortical bone. Bone density is affected by the amount of

This review discusses current thoughts on the pathogenesis of vasculitis. Secondary vasculitides, frequently associated with infections or systemic autoimmune diseases, are, in most cases, characterized by immune deposits in the vessel wall, which probably underlies the development of lesions. In the primary vasculitides, immune deposits are generally

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is an inflammatory disease which mainly affects the extracranial branches of the carotid artery, particularly the temporal arteries. The onset of GCA requires a breakdown of arterial immunoprivilege with the infiltration of immune cells, mainly CD4+ T lymphocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells (DCs) across the arterial ...

Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation, 2002
Various theories have been promulgated to explain the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Interest in the genesis of the endometriotic lesion has been a focus since the earliest investigations. More recently, investigators have addressed aspects of the immune system and local peritoneal factors that may be involved with both the histogenesis of ...

Gallstones form as a result of many disorders. Unphysiologic supersaturation, generally from hypersecretion of cholesterol, is essential for the formation of cholesterol gallstones. The other common abnormalities of the hepatobiliary system in gallstone patients are accelerated nucleation, gallbladder hypomotility, and the accumulation of mucin gel. An

The Pathogenesis of tuberculosis
Tubercle, 1945A glance at the list of references with its z,4z 7 items may give an idea of the range covered by this work, the first of its kind in the literature, at any rate, of recent times. The works by Louis Cobbett (x917) and Calmette (I926) which may be quoted in this connection had a much narrower scope and were largely bacteriological in character and ...

Abstract Experimental and clinical observations on arterial hypertension are consistent with the theory that: (1) Repressed psychic disturbances of a more or less specific nature lead to increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system; (2) sympathetic stimulation may raise blood pressure acutely but also produces renal ischemia and stimulates the

Pathogenesis of the Osteoporoses
JCR: Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, 1997Although some densitometric diagnostic criteria for postmenopausal osteopenia and osteoporosis have become available, an understanding of the underlying contributors to bone fragility and of the processes by which the osteoporoses occur can be helpful in understanding and selecting appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
