| determining the prevalence of epilepsy in the semi-urban population of nakuru, kenya, comparing two independent methods not apparently used before in epilepsy studies. | due to meagre resources in terms of trained medical personnel and financial support and the absence of accurate population-based data in most parts of the developing world, there is an urgent need to develop new epidemiological study designs that are simple, accurate and easy to use. key informant methodology and random cluster sample survey methods were used independently (a) to determine the prevalence of epilepsy and (b) to compare the efficiency, cost effectiveness and feasibility of the two ... | 2011 | 3136404 |

| ct diagnosis of renal pedicle injury. | the ct findings in 6 renal vascular injuries were reviewed. the most specific observations in traumatic renal arterial thrombosis were nonexcretion, "rim" enhancement, and abrupt termination of an enhanced renal artery. other signs of a disrupted renal vascular pedicle included central retroperitoneal hematoma associated with limited perinephric hematoma causing lateral displacement of the kidney. we conclude that ct allows differentiation of the causes of the absent or poor urographic nephrogra ... | 2011 | 4012928 |

| t suppressor cell growth factor and anti-cd3 antibodies stimulate reciprocal subsets of t lymphocytes. | because of the central role of il-2 in clonal expansion of t cells, we have postulated that lymphocyte subpopulations with opposing regulatory functions might be independently regulated by differential requirements for expression of cell-surface il-2-r. purified cd4+ and cd8+ cells proliferated in an il-2-dependent manner to crosslinked anti-t cell receptor antibodies (anti-cd3-seph). similarly, both cd4+ and cd8+ cells became il-2 responsive after incubation in t suppressor cell growth factor ( ... | 2011 | 3110353 |
| desmopressin (ddavp) for treatment of disorders of hemostasis. | at a time when the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome as well as hepatitis and other blood-borne diseases are a threat to patients with bleeding disorders who need treatment with blood products, it is rewarding to realize that a number of these patients can be safely and effectively treated with their own desmopressin-stimulated f.viii:c and vwf. desmopressin is clinically useful for treatment of patients with moderate and mild hemophilia. the limits of the clinical indications are established b ... | 2011 | 3104987 |
