Component
Influenza infection
Influenza infection. Species, exposure and limitations are retained in each linked claim.
1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
Where it participates (unsigned role)
In young male ferrets made hyperammonaemic and comatose by brief feeding of an arginine-deficient diet, synergism of the three factors hyperammonaemia, influenza infection and aspirin treatment was observed in causing Reye-syndrome-like alterations in serum ammonia, transaminase, ornithine carbamoyltransferase, bilirubin and salicylate levels and in liver lipids, proteins and urea-cycle enzymes; the relationship of aspirin treatment to influenza and ammonia toxicity cannot be examined directly in patients because aspirin is usually started by family members in the prodrome before the syndrome is diagnosed.
