Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Leishmania DNA by Polymerase Chain Reaction in Scars of Treated Human Patients
Armando de Oliveira Schubach,Fatima Haddad,Manoel Paes-Oliveira Neto,Wim Degrave,Claude Pirmez,Gabriel Grimaldi,Octavio Fernandes +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that parasites persist in the skin for many years despite treatment, and could have a role in the maintenance of immunologic memory in patients living in areas in which leishmaniasis is endemic.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Low-Dose Antimony Treatment in 159 Patients with American Cutaneous Leishmaniasis: Extensive Follow-up Studies (Up to 10 Years)
M. P. Oliveira-Neto,Armando de Oliveira Schubach,Marise Mattos,S. C. Goncalves-Costa,Claude Pirmez +4 more
TL;DR: The results show that a low dose of antimony is less toxic, more appropriate, especially in children and elderly people, and has the same final result as that obtained with larger doses.
Journal Article
Treatment of American cutaneous leishmaniasis: a comparison between low dosage (5 mg/kg/day) and high dosage (20 mg/kg/day) antimony regimens.
M. P. Oliveira-Neto,Armando de Oliveira Schubach,M. S. Mattos,S. C. Goncalves-Costa,Claude Pirmez +4 more
TL;DR: It is thought that a low dosage of antimony could be equally effective than a higher one, at least in the presence of the clinical picture usually seen in Rio de Janeiro.
Biodemas de cepas do Trypanosoma cruzi isoladas de humanos de três áreas endêmicas de Minas Gerais Biodemes of Trypanosoma cruzi strains isolated from humans from three endemic areas in Minas Gerais State
Rodolfo Devera,Ximena Illarramendi,Roberto Montoya-Araújo,Claude Pirmez,Octavio Fernandes,José Rodrigues Coura +5 more
TL;DR: Palavras-chaves et al. as discussed by the authors evaluated the biological behavior of T. cruzi strains and determined a putative association between their biodeme and the clinical forms of Chagas disease.
BLEPHARO-CONJUNCTIVITIS DUE TO LEISHMANIA (VIANNIA) BRAZILIENSIS CUTANEOUS INFECTION - Report of two cases in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Corresponding author:
Manoel P. Oliveira-Neto,Fundação Oswaldo Cruz-IPEC,Marise Mattos,Eliezer Benchimol,Elisa Cupolillo,Tulia Cuzzi-Maya,Claude Pirmez,Gabriel Grimaldi +7 more
TL;DR: This research presents a novel probabilistic procedure, called “ Cruz’s method,” which combines X-ray diffraction analysis and electrophysiology to characterize the immune response of the immune-inflammatory bowel disease.
