Is Hypoesthesia of the Malleolus a Subtle Neurological Sign in Anxiety?

This study examined the presence of neurological soft signs, an accessible diagnostic instrument, in patients with anxiety. Individuals with anxiety were more likely to manifest hypoesthesia than healthy controls, and patients who showed hypoesthesia exhibited greater symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Histological and lectin binding changes in the genital tract of mice infected with Tritrichomonas foetus.

An experimental murine model of bovine genital tritrichomonosis is described. Female mice were inoculated per vaginam with Tritrichomonas foetus and a sample of the study population was killed every 3 days up to 60 days post-infection. Microscopical changes in the reproductive organs were assessed and immunohistochemistry was used to detect T.

Interaction of Tritrichomonas foetus with the reproductive tract of experimentally infected female BALB/c mice: ultrastructural evaluation.

The interaction of Tritrichomonas foetus with its host is a complex process that involves colonisation, attachment and persistence. The goal of the present study was to describe the interaction of T. foetus with the genital tract using a model of non-oestrogenised female BALB/c mice which had been intravaginally infected with a suspension of T.

[Detection of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli adhesion antigens. Study of their expression in different culture media].

Polyclonal antibodies were raised in rabbits against the adherence antigens K88ab, ac, ad K99 and F41 of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). Their specificity for the antigen was tested by using homologous and heterologous E. coli strains, which had been grown under permissive and nonpermissive conditions for pili expression and also confronted to a purified extract of each fimbrial adhesin.
