Anaesthesia-Related Anaphylaxis: Investigation and Follow-up

Anaphylactic or Anaphylactoid/Allergic or Non-allergic

The European Academy of Allergy and Immunology (EAACI) redefined anaphylaxis as a severe, life-threatening, generalized, or systemic hypersensitivity reaction, sub-divided into 'allergic' and 'non-allergic' reactions.

Allergic anaphylaxis has an incidence between 1/5000–1/20 000 with a 3:1 female preponderance. Despite initially increased reporting of adverse events to new drugs (Weber effect), there is generally under reporting to databases (e.g. the UK yellow card system). Anaphylaxis-related mortality is 3–6% and an additional 2% have a poor neurological outcome.^[2]

Allergic anaphylaxis implies an immunological reaction (IgE, IgG, or complement mediated). Antigen exposure results in mast cell and basophil bound antibody formation. Subsequent antigen exposure causes mast cell degranulation and the release of mediators including histamine, tryptase, leukotrienes, and prostaglandins. In 'non-allergic' reactions, mast cell and basophil degranulation are caused by direct drug action with no immune trigger. The term 'anaphylactoid' is now obsolete and encompassed non-IgE-mediated and non-allergic reactions.

The immunological mechanism is important as skin prick testing identifies only IgE-mediated hypersensitivity. Lack of skin changes does not necessarily exclude a drug as the allergic trigger.

HTML5 Games On Android

On my last hollidays, I made two HTML5 games, and published on android market. Nowadays javascript has powerful libraries for doing almost everything, and also there are several compilers from java or c code to javascript, converting opengl c code to html5 canvas, but definitely, javascript execution is slower than dalvik applications, and of course much slower than arm c libs. For improving the speed of sounds and images loader, I have used javascript asynchronous execution and scheduling priority has been controlled with setTimeout/setInterval which deprioritize or priorize a code block. This games are published on the android market here: Android Planets and here: Far Planet Related news Hacker Hardware Tools Pentest Tools Port Scanner Hacker Tools For Mac Tools Used For Hacking Hacker Techniques Tools And Incident Handling Easy Hack Tools Hacking Tools Kit Hacking Tools Usb Hacker Hardware Tools Hacker Tools Hardware Hack Tools For Windows Hacking Tools For G...

Abdominal pain after a motor vehicle accident

He denied any medication use or drug allergies. A review of systems was positive for complaints of abdominal pain and anxiety. Physical examination The patient's vital signs were: BP, 112/51 mm Hg; heart rate, 110 beats/minute; respirations, 23; SpO 2 , 95% on room air; and temperature, 37.4° C (99.3° F). On ED arrival, he was awake, alert, and oriented but appeared anxious and agitated. His pupils were equal, round, and reactive to light.
