Biochemical response to hyperbaric oxygen treatment of a transhemispheric penetrating cerebral gunshot injury.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy has been suggested a treatment option in order to reduce the development of secondary insults succeeding traumatic brain injury. This case report studied the course of a 23-year-old gentleman with a close range...
Dorsal black skin necrosis in a Vietnamese pot-bellied pig.
Abstract: Thermal burns are an uncommon cause of injury in large animals. A 10-month-old pet female black and white Vietnamese pot-bellied pig presented to the emergency service with fever and erythematous to purpuric skin lesions affecting the intermandibular space...
Arterial wall function is associated with cognitive performance primarily in elderly with type 2 diabetes.
Abstract: Regression analyses compared 41 type 2 diabetes (T2D) and 131 non-T2D cognitively normal elderly males on the associations of arterial wall function measures [large artery elasticity index (LAEI), small artery elasticity index (SAEI), systemic vascular...
[Normoxic therapeutic compression in stroke treatment].
Abstract: Objective. To analyze the effect and mechanisms of therapeutic compression in stroke. Material and methods. Clinical efficacy of normoxic therapeutic compression (NTC) was studied for two hyperbaric therapeutic regimes in patients with ischemic stroke of...
99mTc-ECD brain perfusion SPECT imaging for the assessment of brain perfusion in cerebral palsy (CP) patients with evaluation of the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: The present study was carried out to evaluate cerebral perfusion in different types of cerebral palsy (CP) patients. For those patients who underwent hyperbaric oxygen therapy, brain perfusion before and after the therapy was compared. A total of 11 CP...
Are standard doses of piperacillin sufficient for critically ill patients with augmented creatinine clearance?
Abstract: The aim of this study was to explore the impact of augmented creatinine clearance and differing minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) on piperacillin pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) target attainment (time above MIC (fT>MIC)) in critically ill...
