Effect of a novel adenosine deaminase inhibitor (co-vidarabine, co-V) upon the antiviral activity in vitro and in vivo of vidarabine (Vira-Atm) for DNA virus replication.

abstract：:Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and plasma exchange (PLEX) are used to treat myasthenia gravis (MG) but with little trial evidence. While a class I study provided evidence for the efficacy of IVIG treatment, the empirical support for PLEX has been less convincing until recently. In a randomized controlled single-mas...
