[MYCOSES IN PATIENTS WITH HAEMATOLOGICAL MALIGNANCIES AND STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION]

PRINZ Gyula, SINKÓ János, NIKOLOVA Radka

[Patients with haematological malignancies and stem cell transplantation are frequently prone to develop invasive mycoses. Candida and Aspergillus are the major fungal pathogens that cause infections. The recently introduced new antifungal agents, voriconazole and caspofungin and new diagnostic methods changed the treatment strategies of invasive mycoses. The authors give an overview of the diagnostics, prophylaxis and treatment of the clinically important fungal infections.]

[THE DIAGNOSIS OF CARDIOVASCULAR COMPLICATIONS IN DIABETES MELLITUS]

NIESZNER Éva, BÁRDOS Petra, BARANYI Éva, PRÉDA István

[In spite of establishing new therapeutical approaches in the medical care of type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients, the complications of diabetes still remain as one of the leaders in mortality statistics. The main problem is the high rate of cardiovascular mortality (80%) originating from hyperglycemia induced micro- and macroangiopathy. With the development of new diagnostic methods the cardiovascular impairment of diabetic patients is expected to be fully screened. The assessment of late... tovább »

[ANGIONEUROTIC EDEMA CAUSED BY ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING ENZYME INHIBITORS]

BAKOS Noémi, BENCZÚR Béla

[Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are used in broad spectrum of cardiovascular pharmacotherapy as evidence based drugs. Cough, which is the most typical adverse effect of ACEinhibitors occurs in relatively high proportion of patients (20-63%) during therapy. Angioedema is a less frequent and often underdiagnosed but potentially life-threatening adverse effect of ACEI-treatment occurring typically on the face and extremities or rarely in a visceral form. Authors review the... tovább »

[THE INFLUENCE OF IMMUNOGENOMIC FACTORS ON HIV-INFECTION]

FÜST György

[Authors discuss data published in the last 2-3 years indicating that besides the characteristics of the virus itself, the natural course of HIV disease is also regulated by genetic factors from the very onset till the end. Susceptibility for HIV infection of the carriers of a non-expressing mutant allele (CCR5Δ32) of one of the main coreceptors of HIV is markedly lower than that of the non-carriers. HLA-concordancy, that is few differences in the HLA alleles between the infected and... tovább »

[NEW PROSPECTS IN MEDICINE BY THE APPLICATION OF BIOTECHNOLOGICAL METHODS]

KOSZTOLÁNYI György

[The recent completion of the sequence of the human genome - thanks to the developments in biotechnology - has increased interest in genetics, but confusion remains about the role of genetic information in the medical practice. The role of genomics (a term coined only 15 years ago) in medicine is even more confusing. This review summarizes briefly the most important advances relating to the robust development in biotechnology, by which the practice of medicine has entered an era where the... tovább »

[RIGHT HEMICOLECTOMY FOR SUBMUCOUS LIPOMA CAUSING PARTIAL BOWEL OBSTRUCTION]

SVÉBIS Mihály, BORI Rita, KOCSIS Lajos, PAP-SZEKERES József, CSERNI Gábor

[INTRODUCTION - Submucous lipomas are rare tumors of the colon and may be misdiagnosed as cancer because of their exophytic, polypoid growth and threatening bowel obstruction. CASE REPORT - A protruding, ulcerated and firm tumor preventing the investigation of the coecum was found by endoscopy in the ascending colon of a 50-year-old woman, who was subsequently operated on. The preoperative biopsy revealed only necrotic debris. Right hemicolectomy was performed because of threatening bowel... tovább »

[MOLECULAR IMAGING AND THERAPY IN HUNGARY]

GALUSKA László

[After a brief historical summary of molecular imaging and therapy (earlier called isotope diagnostics or nuclear medicine), which has more than 50 years history in Hungary, the author presents comparative international information regarding the status of this particular discipline in Hungary. He distinguishes between “single photon” or traditional techniques and “double photon” or PET methods. Besides listing well-known traditional methods, the author gives additional details and prognosis... tovább »
