He has had hepatosplenomegaly, rashes, stunted growth (<3rd centile), anemia, and impaired immune function since infancy. He also has vasculitis and osteoporosis. A plasma Zn-binding protein has been sep...

This study was designed to test whether fractional absorption calculated from urinary enrichment of stable isotopes of zinc accurately reflects true absorption measured by faecal monitoring. The two techniques were directly compared in volunteers, whereby each subject acted as his/her own control. Volunteers were healthy adults, living at home, who...

... 135 Rauscher, Am. en 1997, observó que las bajas concentraciones de Zn en el plasma y el aumento de excreción de éste en pacientes con diabetes no insulino dependientes están correlacionados. 168 Tuvemo, T. en 1997, hizo un estudio en niños sobre las concentraciones de Mg y proteínas en los primeros 5 años de diabetes, y se observó que tenían una deficiencia crónica de Mg y una síntesis insuficiente de algunas proteínas. 213 Blostein-Fujii, A. en 1997, vio que a corto plazo la suplementación de Zn no solucionaba el problema en los diabéticos y que al aumentar el Zn aumentaba la actividad de la 5´nucleotidasa; pero para obtener beneficios con este tratamiento, debía hacerse el estudio y el aporte de la suplementación durante un período más pronunciado. ...
... Yarrow is widely used due to its many pharmacological properties, such as antiinflammatory drugs, in folk medicine (Goldberg et al., 1969), antispasmodic (Falk et al., 1975), antiseptic (Candan et al., 2003), diaphoretic, anti-swelling, and antihypertensive (Sweetman et al., 2002), diuretic and antidiarrheal (Honda et al., 1996) and emmenagogue (Schulz et al., 2001). Nowadays, common yarrow is used in healing ointments applied to wounds (Sampson et al., 1997) and in modern medicine for reducing ulcer size (Nilforoushzadeh et al., 2008). It also has antitumor (Tozyo et al., 1994), antioxidant ingredients (Yaseen et al., 2017), antimicrobial-based (Candan et al., 2003), antifungal officers (Aydin and Sevindik, 2018), anti-mutagenic (Düsman et al., 2013), liver protective (Lin et al., 2002), muscle relaxant (Koushyar et al., 2013), gastric antisecretory and gastroprotective activities (Baggio et al., 2002). ...
