Toxoplasma gondii is a parasite that can alter host behavior by affecting neurotransmitters of the host. Aim: To diagnose if there are differences in neurotransmitter levels in infected people by toxoplasmosis and healthy people to predict the psychological and neurological diseases.

Anaphylaxis: Pathophysiology, Risk Factors, and Clinical Management
Abstract: Anaphylaxis is a syndrome characterized by broncho-constriction, vasodilatation, and hypovolemia, potentially fatal exposure to known or unknown antigens. It can be an immune-mediated (IgE & non-IgE) disease. Immunoglobulin G (IgG), complement related (C3a/C5a), bradykinin, leukotrienes, prostaglandin E2, and ligands of certain G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) can directly activate mast cells, basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils, endothelial cells and smooth muscles. Serum tryptase level during episodes of anaphylaxis, skin test, and basophil activation …
