Disease relevance of Asia, Southeastern

  • Artesunate is a key antimalarial drug in the treatment of multidrug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria in southeast Asia. We investigated the distribution of counterfeit artesunate tablets by use of the validated, simple, and inexpensive Fast Red TR dye technique [1].
  • EBV infection takes place much earlier in Uganda, where all children are infected before the age of 2 to 3 years, than in Southeast Asia, where nasopharyngeal carcinoma is prevalent [2].
  • Nine patients were drug addicts and 17 were children and young adults from Mediterranean countries or southeast Asia. During the acute phase of illness, serum bilirubin and SGPT levels did not differ from those in other patients with acute hepatitis A [3].
  • In this study, we examined a T cell epitope restricted by HLA-A*24, a major MHC class I allele, in Southeast Asia in a cohort of children admitted to a hospital with acute Dengue infection [4].
  • The plant hormone ethylene is believed to be responsible for the ability of rice to grow in the deepwater regions of Southeast Asia. Ethylene production is induced by hypoxia, which is caused by flooding, because of enhanced activity of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) synthase, the key enzyme in the ethylene biosynthetic pathway [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on Asia, Southeastern

 

High impact information on Asia, Southeastern

  • Complex polymorphisms in an approximately 330 kDa protein are linked to chloroquine-resistant P. falciparum in Southeast Asia and Africa [7].
  • The study compares the health and noncombat mortality of Ranch Hand veterans with a comparison group of Air Force veterans primarily involved with cargo missions in Southeast Asia but who were not exposed to herbicides [8].
  • Thiamine deficiency and malaria in adults from southeast Asia [9].
  • It was 0.6% in Asia Minor. Factor V Leiden was not found in any of 1600 chromosomes from Africa, Southeast Asia, Australasia, and the Americas [10].
  • In nonalcoholic cirrhotic patients from Japan and Southeast Asia, in whom hepatocellular carcinoma is endemic, an adenomatous hyperplastic nodule or a similar hyperplastic lesion that occurs in cirrhotic livers may be preneoplastic and already committed to malignant transformation [11].

Associations of Asia, Southeastern with chemical compounds

  • Multicenter phase II trial of mitoxantrone in patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Southeast Asia: an Asian-Oceanian Clinical Oncology Association Group study [24].
  • Previous studies from Southeast Asia suggested that immunosuppressive therapy could be harmful, or at best of no value, and antiviral treatment with vidarabine, picibanil, or even interferon was also unsatisfactory [25].
  • The prevalence of lactose maldigestion is lowest in Scandinavia and Northwest Europe (3-8%) and close to 100% in most of Southeast Asia. In Europe the frequency increases in the southern and eastern directions, reaching 70% in southern Italy and Turkey [26].
  • The most frequent mutation of the core protein in HBV from Southeast Asia occurs at amino acid 97, changing an isoleucine (I) to a leucine (L) [27].
  • Results with a fructosamine kit for a group of diabetics in Southeast Asia [28].
