Journal ArticleDOI
Bleomycin-reactive iron in patients with acute non-lymphocytic leukemia.
TL;DR: It is proposed that bleomycin‐reactive iron should be considered as a possible factor in organ dysfunction seen with intensive cancer chemotherapy.
Journal Article
Defective erythropoietin production and reticulocyte response in acute Plasmodium falciparum malaria-associated anemia.
Wattana Leowattana,Srivicha Krudsood,Noppadon Tangpukdee,Gary M. Brittenham,Sornchai Looareesuwan +4 more
TL;DR: Results indicate defective Epo production and reticulocyte response in adult patients suffering from acute P. falciparum malaria, which differs from pediatric patients, may provide the basis for further study into the choice of therapeutic strategies to treat acute, uncomplicated malaria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Giant mitochondria induced in rat pancreatic exocrine cells by ethanol and iron.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined pancreatic mitochondria for evidence of mitochondrial giantism in rats administered ethanol and a relatively small amount of supplementary iron, and found that the mitochondria in the liver mitochondria formed clusters of tightly interlocked organelles, forming a prelude to mitochondrial fusion.
PatentDOI
MRI method for high liver iron measurement using magnetic susceptibility induced field distortions
TL;DR: A fitting procedure is iteratively repeated until a susceptibility is determined for the region of interest which predicts the actually measured field map, which is proportional to iron concentration.
Journal Article
Clinical experience with intravenous quinine, intramuscular artemether and intravenous artesunate for the treatment of severe malaria in Thailand.

TL;DR: Effective therapy for severe falciparum malaria can be provided by either intravenous artesunate followed by mefloquine or by intravenous quinine followed by tetracycline.
