In pathology, Aschoff (or Aschoff giant cells) cells are often cells associated with rheumatic heart disease. They are found in Aschoff bodies surrounding centres of fibrinoid necrosis. In comparison with Anitschkow cells their cytoplasm is more basophilic, can contain more up to 4 nuclei. Aschoff believed that Aschoff giant cells were some type of connective or endothelial tissue. Today are Aschoff cells considered to be derived from cardiac myocytes rather than connective tissue cells. Aschoff cells were named after the German physician and pathologist Ludwig Aschoff.

In medicine, Aschoff bodies are nodules found in the hearts of individuals with rheumatic fever. They result from inflammation in the heart muscle and are characteristic of rheumatic heart disease. These nodules were discovered independently by Ludwig Aschoff and Paul Rudolf Geipel, and for this reason they are occasionally called Aschoff-Geipel bodies. Microscopically, Aschoff bodies are areas of inflammation of the connective tissue of the heart, or focal interstitial inflammation. Fully developed Aschoff bodies are granulomatous structures consisting of fibrinoid change, lymphocytic infiltration, occasional plasma cells, and characteristically abnormal macrophages surrounding necrotic centres. Some of these macrophages may fuse to form multinucleated giant cells. Others may become Anitschkow cells or caterpillar cells, so named because of the appearance of their chromatin. They are pathognomic foci of fibrinoid necrosis found in many sites, most often the myocardium. Initially they are ...

Rheumatic Nodule: A small round or oval, mostly subcutaneous nodule made up chiefly of a mass of Aschoff bodies and seen in cases of rheumatic fever. It is differentiated from the RHEUMATOID NODULE which appears in rheumatoid arthritis, most frequently over bony prominences. (From Dorland, 27th ed)

Rheumatoid nodules are well-demarcated, flesh colored, subcutaneous lumps or masses which are usually freely movable, though attachment to underlying tissues is possible. The nodules can vary in size from small, pea sized lesions up to the size of a lemon. RA nodules are most often round though sometimes take a linear shape. To the touch, nodules may feel doughy or firm however are usually not tender unless there is inflammation, ulceration or impingement of underlying structures such as nerves. Typically rheumatoid nodules are distributed over areas of repeated trauma or pressure and occur adjacent to joints on extensor surfaces, such as the elbow, fingers and forearms. In patients who are bedridden, areas of prolonged pressure such as the heel, Achilles tendon, posterior scalp, hip and sacrum are often affected.. Rheumatoid nodules may also occur internally, in sites unassociated with joints, such as in the sclera of the eyes, lungs or vocal cords, however diagnosis in those locations is ...

Actions: respiratory stimulant, anti-asthmatic, spasmolytic, expectorant, diaphoretic, nervine, emetic, relaxant. Indications: spasmodic asthma with secondary bronchitis; chronic bronchitis; spastic colon, spastic muscle conditions; topically for myositis, rheumatic nodules. Therapeutics and Pharmacology: Lobelias primary use is as an antispasmodic remedy in bronchitic asthma and bronchitis. In the past, it was also used to induce vomiting. The alkaloids have a paradoxical effect on the respiratory system - lobeline is a powerful respiratory stimulant whilst isolobelanine is an emetic and respiratory relaxant, stimulating catarrhal secretions and expectoration whilst relaxing the muscles of the respiratory system. At therapeutic levels, lobeline acts on the chemoreceptors of the glomus caroticus, causing reflex stimulation of the respiratory centre. Since it is rapidly metabolised, its effects are transitory when taken orally and topical application is often more effective. It has many of the ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Pulmonary adenocarcinomas associated with rheumatoid nodules. T2 - A case report and review of the literature. AU - Baruch, Amy C.. AU - Steinbronn, Karen. AU - Sobonya, Richard. PY - 2005/1/1. Y1 - 2005/1/1. N2 - Necrobiotic lung nodules and primary lung carcinoma both occur with some frequency in patients with rheumatoid arthritis; however, few reports exist of a primary lung carcinoma occurring within a rheumatoid nodule. We report a case of a 62-year-old woman with multiple pulmonary nodules discovered incidentally by computed tomography. Although 2 of the lesions were composed solely of necrotizing granulomas, 2 additional lesions contained malignant glands at the periphery of necrobiotic nodules. Immunohistochemical staining supported the diagnosis of both tumors as primary lung carcinomas. Our literature search revealed only 2 other reported cases of adenocarcinoma occurring in association with a rheumatoid nodule; these cases, as well as the association between rheumatoid ...

We present a 27-year-old male with multiple nonpainful soft tissue masses over several metacarpals, bilateral elbows, the left wrist, and both knees since the age of 4. Physical exam was significant for firm, nonmobile, nodular growths over the extensor surfaces of bilateral elbows and knees and on the 2nd and 5th metacarpal phalangeal joints. Laboratory studies revealed an unremarkable rheumatoid factor, negative ANA screening and normal joint radiographs. Differential diagnosis included subcutaneous granuloma annulare (SGA), seronegative rheumatoid nodule, and calcinosis cutis. Biopsy is the only method to distinguish benign rheumatoid nodules from SGA. This case illustrates the importance of biopsy in diagnosis, an awareness of the potential complications, and the need for good follow-up.

This study suggests that the circadian system in mice is responsive to long wavelength red light. The result is surprising because recent studies suggest that melanopsin, in combination with the classical rod and cone photoreceptors, account for the transduction of photic information to the circadian system. There are no studies of spectral sensitivity of the Aschoff effect in mice. However, the spectral sensitivity of photoreceptors mediating circadian phase-shifts in mice is vanishingly small at wavelengths above 600 nm [7-9]. In most organisms, circadian period under LL is a function of both intrinsic period and photic inputs. The Aschoff effect is understood to result from the cumulative phase-shifting effect of LL on the pacemaker [5, 13, 15]. Thus an effect of red light on circadian period is unexpected.. One possible explanation is that there is another photopigment present in mammals that is sensitive to far-red light and affects period rather than phase. It cannot be excluded that ...

Bei mehr als 4% der Patienten mit rheumatoider Arthritis können pulmonale Rheumaknoten nachgewiesen werden. Diagnostisch müssen diese Knoten von malignen und infektiösen Prozessen abgegrenzt werden. In vorliegendem Fall wird ein gutes Ansprechen eines pulmonalen Rheumaknotens auf Rituximab beschrieben. Pulmonary rheumatoid nodules can be found in over 4% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Diagnostically they have to be differentiated from malignant and infectious processes. The present article describes a case of pulmonary rheumatoid nodule which responded well to Rituximab therapy.

Circadian T b rhythms during the nonhibernation season were eliminated in animals that sustained complete ablation of the SCN but persisted in ground squirrels with as little as 10% of the SCN intact. T brhythms were robust in control animals during 11 months of exposure to constant light, as previously documented for locomotor activity rhythms in this species (Zucker et al., 1983) and other diurnal mammals (Aschoff, 1981; Fuller et al., 1981; DeCoursey et al., 1997). The absence of circadian T b rhythms 2.5 years after SCN ablation indicates that extra-SCN structures are insufficient to restore circadian rhythmicity lost after SCN ablation (Ruby et al., 1998). Similar persistent arrhythmicity lasting 7 months was documented in rats that sustained SCN damage a few days after birth (Mosko and Moore, 1979). The histological data, combined with behavioral observations, suggest that the SCNx ground squirrels lacked functional SCN tissue; circadian T brhythms persist in animals with ,10% of the ...

Authors: Stefan Schwarz, MD; Dimitrios Georgiadis, MD; Alfred Aschoff, MD; Stefan Schwab, MD. Background and Purpose- The purpose of this study was to prospectively evaluate the effects of body position in patients with large supratentorial stroke.. Methods- We performed 43 monitoring sessions in 18 patients with acute complete or subtotal middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory stroke. Intracranial pressure (ICP) was monitored with a parenchymal probe. Mean arterial blood pressure, ICP, and MCA peak mean flow velocity (VmMCA) were continuously recorded. Patients with acute ICP crises were excluded. After baseline values at a 0° supine position were attained, the backrest was elevated in 2 steps of 5 minutes each to 15° and 30° and then returned to 0°.. Results- Baseline mean arterial pressure was 90.0±1.6 mm Hg and fell to 82.7±1.7 mm Hg at 15° and 76.1±1.6 mm Hg at 30° backrest elevation (P,0.0001). ICP decreased from 13.0±0.9 to 12.0±0.9 mm Hg at 15° and 11.4±0.9 mm Hg at 30° ...

Sunao Tawara (田原 淳, Tawara Sunao, July 5, 1873 - January 19, 1952) was a Japanese pathologist known for the discovery of the atrioventricular node.[1]. Tawara was born in Ōita Prefecture and studied at the Medical School, Imperial University of Tokyo in Tokyo, graduating in 1901 and receiving his Doctorate of Medical Science in 1908. Between 1903 and 1906 he spent in Philipps University of Marburg in Marburg, studying pathology and pathological anatomy with Ludwig Aschoff. It was here he undertook his important works on pathology and anatomy of heart. Upon returning to Japan he was appointed assistant professor of pathology at Kyushu Imperial University in Fukuoka, obtaining full professorship in 1908. ...

Results The evolution of the median value of modified DAS 28 was highly significant, with a score of 4.0 at day 0 and 1.7 at day 180(p = 0.01). At day 180,72 patients could be assessed for the 3 parameters studied. At day 0,72 patients out of 87 had tenosynovitis. All tenosynovitis disappeared in 12 patients, some but not all tenosynovitis disappeared in 7 patients. New tenosynovitis appeared at day 180 in 8 patients, 45 patients remained unchanged.. Moreover,22 nodules were counted in 10 patients out of 87 assessed at day 0. At day 180, the assessment remained unchanged. Nodules neither appeared nor disappeared. No other extraarticular features appeared during treatment. ...

Modifies, by uridylylation and deuridylylation, the PII regulatory proteins (GlnB and homologs), in response to the nitrogen status of the cell that GlnD senses through the glutamine level. Under low glutamine levels, catalyzes the conversion of the PII proteins and UTP to PII-UMP and PPi, while under higher glutamine levels, GlnD hydrolyzes PII-UMP to PII and UMP (deuridylylation). Thus, controls uridylylation state and activity of the PII proteins, and plays an important role in the regulation of nitrogen metabolism.

The major difference is that M. bovis infection is spread from animals to humans, most frequently through infected milk products [62] (Table 1). True Cutaneous Tuberculosis Endogenously Acquired Disease Lupus Vulgaris LV is the most common form of cutaneous tuberculosis in most countries, especially in India and Africa [63-66]. Up to 40% of LV cases are associated with lymphadenitis and up to 20% involve the lungs and bones [65].

SHAFAQNA - Philippine authorities are threatening to further single out Muslims as part of official counterterrorism efforts.. This week, authorities in Central Luzon in the northern Philippines proposed imposing a mandatory identification card system for the regions estimated 26,000 Muslims.. Central Luzon Police Superintendent Aaron Aquino sought to justify the Muslim-only ID as a means to identify and weed out undesirable individuals and terrorists. Two weeks ago, authorities in the town of Paniqui, Tarlac province, imposed a Muslim-only ID card as a best practice that authorities were urged to replicate throughout Central Luzons seven provinces.. The ID proposal stems from the ongoing fighting in Marawi City on the southern island of Mindanao between government troops and ISIS-linked Maute-Abu Sayyaf insurgents. In June President Rodrigo Duterte had lambasted Muslim leaders in Marawi City and elsewhere in Mindanao for allegedly allowing the Islamist fighters to enter the city and ...

Objective. To characterize a variety of subcutaneous lesions by their ultrasonographic (US) appearance, and establish these images as a starting point to measure changes with treatments. Methods. Twenty-six patients with 48 subcutaneous nodular swellings of various types were imaged using a portable US machine equipped with a 10 MHz linear transducer. All patients had a known diagnosis of a rheumatic disease. We used US to examine subcutaneous lesions and the underlying cortical surface of the bone or joint. Two measurements of some tophi and rheumatoid nodules were done on different dates to examine reproducibility of the measurements. Results. Nodular lesions included 20 tophi and 20 rheumatoid nodules, 2 sarcoid nodules, 2 lipomas, and 4 synovial cysts. Tophi most often appeared as heterogeneous masses; hypoechoic areas in 2 tophi were decreased after aspiration of chalky liquid tophaceous material. Occasionally tophi had calcifications appearing hyperechoic with acoustic shadowing. Cortical ...
