Abstract:
This paper compares the implementation of the two economic evaluation methods Cost-Effectiveness/Utility (CEA/CUA) and Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) as tools for allocation of national public funds in the health and transport sector in Sweden, respectively. We compare the recommended values for important economic parameters such as the social discount rate, the marginal cost of public funds, and the explicit and implicit valuation of health, and document a number of substantial and unexplained differences in implementation. Such differences are problematic considering that the increasing use of

The consequences of complement activation and the symptoms of decompression sickness are similar. Consequently, the relation between the sensitivity of individuals to complement activation by air bubbles and their susceptibility to decompression sickness has been examined. Plasma samples from 34 individuals were incubated with air bubbles, and the concentration of the fluid phase metabolites of complement activation C3a, C4a, and C5a were measured with radioimmunoassays. It was found that both the anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a were produced by the presence of air bubbles but that the anaphylatoxi

Abstract:
Vibrio vulnificus is a pathogenic bacterium that can causes wound infections and fetal septicemia. We have reported that V. vulnificus ATCC29307 produces an extracellular zinc-metalloprotease (named vEP-45). Our previous results showed that vEP-45 can convert prothrombin to active thrombin and also activate the plasma kallikrein/kinin system. In this study, the effect of vEP-45 on the activation of the complement system was examined. We found that vEP-45 could proteolytically convert the key complement precursor molecules, including C3, C4, and C5, to their corresponding active forms (e.g., C3

Recent reports that C3a activates both basophils and eosinophils prompted us to reinvestigate the effects of C3a stimulation on eosinophils.

Complement is an ancient part of the innate immune system that plays a pivotal role in protection against invading pathogens and helps to clear apoptotic and necrotic cells. Upon complement activation, a cascade of proteolytic events generates the complement effectors, including the anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a. Signalling through their cognate G-protein coupled receptors, C3aR and C5aR, leads to a wide range of biological events promoting inflammation at the site of complement activation.

Abstract:
In 10 hemodialyses (HD) with cuprophan (CU) and 10 with polyacrylonitrile (PAN), signs of complement activation were investigated by following arterial and venous levels of C3a, C3d and C5a, in order to propose a marker of bioincompatibility. Despite large individual variabilities, significant increases of these molecules were detected at t 20 min, particularly with CU device in the artery and more marked in the vein except for C3d with PAN. During the later stage of HD, while C3a and C5a levels gradually declined, but remained significantly higher than t 0 in all the patients treated with CU,

Abstract:
Reactions of (η5-C9H7)Rh(η2-C2H4)2 (1) with quinones were investigated. Substitution of the labile ethylene ligands was observed upon addition of either duroquinone (2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-1,4-benzoquinone) or 1,4-benzoquinone to complex 1. The molecular structure of neutral (η5-C9H7)Rh(2,3,5,6-C6O2(CH3)4) (3), determined by X-ray diffraction, shows that the duroquinone ligand lies in a plane nearly parallel to the indenyl group. The carbonyl moieties of duroquinone lie in a plane incorporating Rh, C2, and the midpoint between C3a and C7a of the indenyl ring. The slip parameter (Δ= d(average Rh-C

Abstract We review laboratory tests that evaluate thrombogenesis during acute coronary syndromes. These tests have been found to be valuable research tools in more clearly understanding the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndromes. In particular, we describe tissue factor, tissue factor pathway inhibitor, prothrombin fragment 1.2, thrombin-antithrombin complex, fibrinopeptide A, tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), t-PA-PAI complex, Bβ 15–42-related peptides, fibrinogen degradation products, fibrin degradation products, D-dimer, platelet factor 4,

Abstract Background Complement activation may play a role in the pathogenesis of thrombosis and other pathological processes in the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Since coagulation proteases, such as factor Xa, can cleave complement proteins, we investigated complement activation in thrombotic APS patients receiving rivaroxaban, a direct factor Xa inhibitor.

This increase was paralleled by an increase in the concentration of the lysosomal proteinase elastase from polymorphonuclear (PMN) granulocytes.

Abstract:
Abstract The factors that control migration of mast cells to sites of inflammation and tissue repair remain largely undefined. Whereas several recent studies have described chemotactic factors that induce migration of murine mast cells, only stem cell factor (SCF ) is known to induce migration of human mast cells. We report here that the anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a are chemotactic factors for the human mast cell line HMC-1, human cord blood-derived mast cells (CBMC) and cutaneous mast cells in vitro. The presence of an extracellular matrix protein, laminin, was required for chemotaxis in respon

Abstract:
Communication between the immune and endocrine system is important for the control of inflammation that is primarily mediated through the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. The innate immune system rapidly responds to pathogens by releasing complement proteins that include the anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a. We previously reported the existence of C3a receptors in the anterior pituitary gland and now describe the presence of C5a receptors in the gland. C5a and its less active derivative (C5adR) can bind to its own receptor and to another receptor called C5L2. Using RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry
