Evaluation of topical polyinosinic acid-polycytidylic acid in treatment of localized herpes zoster in children with cancer: a randomized, double-blind controlled study.

abstract：:Parasitic diseases are of enormous public health significance in developing countries-a situation compounded by the toxicity of and resistance to many current chemotherapeutics. We investigated a focused library of 18 structurally diverse bis-acridine compounds for in vitro bioactivity against seven protozoan and one ...
