Abnormal concentration of maternal serum activin-A in gestational diseases

TL;DR: It is shown that preterm labor is associated with increased concentrations of activin-A in the maternal circulation and cord serum, and Hypersecretion of activIn-A is also shown in same patients with gestation diabetes; this reverts to normal after insulin treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exposure to low frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields increases interleukin-1 and interleukin-6 production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

TL;DR: The exposure of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells to extremely low frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields increased both the spontaneous and the PHA- and TPA-induced production of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and IL-6.
Journal ArticleDOI

Psychoimmunoendocrine aspects of panic disorder

TL;DR: All the impairments improved after alprazolam therapy, in parallel with decreases in anxiety and in severity and frequency of panic attacks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypertension in pregnancy: Changes in activin a maternal serum concentration

TL;DR: The present study showed that maternal serum activin A concentration is abnormally high in patients with pre-eclampsia, since the patients with chronic hypertension or pregnancy-induced hypertension have activIn A concentration in the normal range of values, activin C may be a prognostic marker of hypertension in pregnancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

β‐Endorphin cerebrospinal fluid decrease in untreated parkinsonian patients
