[dermatophytoses in the murcia region. changes in the frequency of isolations in the last 22 years]. | different clinical forms of dermatophyte infections were studied in 136 patients, t. mentagrophytes being the most frequently isolated species. our results are similar to those of other authors of south-eastern spain, though differing from those in more distant, parts of the country. in our area, the rabbit is considered the most important dermatophytic animal reservoir. | 1987 | 3309504 |
sensitization to zygophyllum fabago pollen. a clinical and immunologic study. | zygophyllum fabago is a herbaceous plant found widely in the mediterranean area. there are no previous reports of its allergenicity. an aerobiologic and clinical survey was conducted in murcia, southern spain, to determine the quantity of airborne pollen and establish the possible role of this pollen as a cause of allergic symptoms. with a hirst volumetric trap, we determined the atmospheric concentrations of this pollen in 1993, 1994, 1995, and 1996. of 1180 patients tested, 181 (15.34%) had a ... | 1998 | 9542603 |
factors that influence mercury concentrations in nestling eagle owls (bubo bubo). | mercury (hg) is a global pollutant that bioaccumulates and biomagnifies in food chains, and is associated with adverse effects in both humans and wildlife. the hg levels detected in blood obtained from eagle owl (bubo bubo) chicks in southeast spain (murcia) can be considered low (mean hg concentration in blood from 2006 to 2012 was 36.83 ± 145.58 μg/l wet weigh, n=600), and it is therefore unlikely that hg pollution can negatively affect their breeding. positive correlation (r=0.339, p<0.001, n ... | 2014 | 24246936 |
