The quantitative effect of infection on the use of food by young children in poor countries
A framework based on consistent and explicit set of assumptions is developed for evaluating the effect of infection on the intake and efficiency of use of food by children under 5 years old in poor countries. A v... -
Chlorpromazine reduces fluid-loss in cholera
Because chlorpromazine inhibited cholera-toxin-stimulated intestinal adenylate cyclase and fluid secretion in laboratory animals its ability to reduce fluid-loss in human cholera was investigated. Eleven cholera patients with severe purging (360--1340&... -
Relationship between enterotoxin production and serotype in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
We examined the relationship between serotype and enterotoxin production in 109 enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains isolated from 109 patients with severe cholera-like diarrhea in Dacca, Bangladesh. Of 69 strains producing both heat-labi... -
Solid-phase microtiter radioimmunoassay blocking test for detection of antibodies to Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin
The development of a solid-phase microtiter radioimmunoassay blocking test to detect serum antibody to Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin is described. The assay is easy to perform and quantitate, and it is sensitive and specific -
Enhanced T-cell rosette formation in shigellosis by the in vitro use of thymopoietin
The results from this study suggest that the large nul cell lymphocyte population seen in patients with Shigella dysentery, does contain a sub-population of cells that will respond in vitro to thymopoietin, a bovine thymic ... -
A simple laboratory method for the diagnosis of V. cholerae
In many developing countries where cholera occurs, bacteriological facilities at the local level are lacking and either cholera may be unreported or other diarrhoeal diseases may be mistakenly reported as cholera. A simple and ... -
Depression of cell-mediated immunity in cholera
Cholera toxin may depress cell-mediated immunity by stimulation of adenyl cyclase and production of cyclic AMP in cellular systems or when given parenterally to experimental animals. Whether or not similar effects might be found...
