The comparative effects of cortisol and voltaren on anaemia and temperature changes in experimental Trypanosoma
Journal of Comparative Pathology
|May 1, 1986
Abstract:
Three groups of rats were infected with Trypanosoma brucei. Two of the groups were treated with either asteroidal (Cortisol) or a non-steroidal (Voltaren) anti-inflammatory drug to compare the effects of the two drugs on the disease process. The anaemia was least severe in the Cortisol treated group which suggests that its supportive use in the treatment of natural infections with the brucei subgroup of trypanosomes may be advantageous.

Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.
