Chemical compound and disease context of Splenomegaly

  • However, delta9-THC administered daily for 10 days significantly inhibited Friend leukemia virus-induced splenomegaly by 71% at 200 mg/kg as compared to 90.2% for actinomycin D [13].
  • The immunostimulatory effect of adriamycin and C. parvum administered as a single agent or in combination was associated with significant splenomegaly [14].
  • Only the active fragmented, pyridine residue and unfractionated preparations caused splenomegaly and prevented the secondary in vitro generation of CTL [15].
  • Serum bilirubin concentration, histological stage on liver biopsy, age, and the presence of splenomegaly were independent predictors of a high risk of dying [16].
  • 188 schoolchildren aged 10-15 living in a malaria endemic area along the Thai-Burmese border were matched for age, splenomegaly, and weight and were then randomly assigned to receive either doxycycline (adult equivalent of 100 mg daily) or chloroquine (adult equivalent of 300 mg base weekly) [17].
