A parasitological and immuno-hematological study was undertaken simultaneously in fifty South-East asian refugees at the time of their arrival in France. --in this series the frequency of individuals having a P2 erythrocyte phenotype is 80%. --54 % of these immigrants were found to be carriers of Clonorchis sinensis, a parasite rarely found in Europe. --in 40,7 % of these subjects infested by Clonorchis sinensis, the following properties were disclosed concerning the P1 allo-antibody: slow-P1 red cell agglutination at 22 degrees C, no hemolysis of P1 red cells in vitro, IgM antibody, in weak titers. The immuno-hematological study of the immuno-serums with respect to distomian antigens coupled with adsorption-elution using P1+++ red cells shows a close immunological relationship between the antibody of parasite origin and the anti-P1 allo-antibody.

  • The study investigates the effects of Dolutegravir-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) on immuno-hematological parameters in adult HIV patients at St. Peter Specialized Hospital in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
  • A total of 422 HIV patients who had been on the therapy for at least three months were assessed for various hematological and immunological markers before and after treatment initiation using standardized methods.
  • Results showed significant improvements in key parameters such as white blood cell count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin levels, CD4 counts, and other related blood metrics after three months of treatment (P<0.05).

The development of green aquaculture practices has led to the supplementation of fish diets with natural immunostimulants such as organic acids. This study aimed to assess the dietary effects of verjuice (VJ; unfermented unripe grapes; Vitis vinifera) on hematological parameters, skin mucosal immunity, transcriptional immune responses, and antibacterial serum activity against Aeromonas hydrophila in rainbow trout. The fish (51.

Background: Cytopenias serve as common indicators and crucial predictive tools for evaluating disease progression and therapeutic outcomes in individuals with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of cytopenias and their correlation with the level of immunosuppression in treatment-naive HIV-infected participants after initiating highly active combined antiretroviral drug therapy (cART24).

Materials And Methods: This prospective study focused on evaluating cytopenia in 44 treatment-naive HIV-infected patients who consented to initiate cART and were consecutively enrolled.

Excessive use of plastics in daily life is causing plastic pollution in aquatic environment and threatening the aquatic life. Therefore, research on the plastic pollution in aquatic environment is crucial to understand its impact and develop effective solution for safeguarding aquatic life and ecosystem. The current study investigated the effects of water borne polystyrene nanoparticles (PS-NPs) on hemato-immunological indices, serum metabolic enzymes, gills, and liver antioxidant parameters, plasma cortisol level and histopathological changes in liver and gill tissues of the widely distributed fish Hypophthalmichthys molitrix.
