However, one important distinction concerns the efficacy of minocycline in reversing chronic visceral hypersensitivity in adulthood long after the initial neonatal insult.
Diagnosis of carotid sinus hypersensitivity in older adults: carotid sinus massage in the upright position is essential.
The nature and sequence of cellular events in sensitized hosts suggests the involvement of multiple hypersensitivity reactions in the expression of resistance.
A specific feature noted in elderly patients is that the deficiency suppresses delayed cutaneous hypersensitivity.
However, the authors concluded that this may have been due to high levels of pregnancy-induced androgens or endorgan hypersensitivity to normal pregnancy levels of androgen.
