Skeletal muscle depletion is an important prognostic factor in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); a recent study demonstrated significant correlations between pectoralis area on axial CT image and COPD-related traits. The purpose of this was to evaluate the relation areas scans total body skeletal mass (SMM) healthy subjects.For 434 subjects that underwent low-dose chest bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) during health screening from January June 2014,...
The high signal intensities in bilateral mesiotemporal lobes on T2-weighted images are typical findings of herpes encephalitis or paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis. We report a case neurosyphilis with involvement MRI. Positive antibodies the cerebrospinal fluid confirmed diagnosis. results suggest that should be considered when MRI indicate abnormalities.
We found a new type of white blood cell induced by bacterial infection that has lethal effects on host survival.
Objective. To determine whether focal epididymal lesions can be differentiated on gray scale sonographic, color Doppler and clinical features. Methods. This was a retrospective analysis of 60 in 57 patients. Focal were classified into 3 groups: nonspecific epididymitis (n = 43), tuberculous 10), benign masses 7). The following features analyzed: size, location, echogenicity, heterogeneity the lesion; hypoechoic or hyperechoic rim presence; hydrocele degree blood flow patient's age; duration...
Endobiliary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an emerging endoscopic palliative adjunctive therapy used for the local treatment of unresectable malignant biliary obstruction (MBO). However, irregular ranges caused by insufficient electrode-to-bile duct contact pose a significant obstacle. We investigated feasibility self-expandable stent (SES)-based electrode with customized RFA generator in porcine liver and common bile (CBD).
Here, we investigated the effects of sex hormones on extracellular matrix (ECM)-related gene expression in vocal fold lamina propria ovariectomized (after ovary removal) rats and verified whether echinochrome A (ECH) exerts any therapeutic ECM reconstitution after estrogen deficiency rats. Sprague-Dawley female (9 weeks old) were acclimatized for a week randomly divided into three groups (n = 15 each group) as follows: group I (sham-operated rats, SHAM), II (ovariectomized OVX), III treated...
Adventitial cystic disease (ACD) is an uncommon condition that accounts for only 0.1% of all vascular (1), and it mainly affects young men with intermittent claudication. It most commonly seen in the popliteal artery, but has also been reported external iliac, femoral, ulnar radial arteries. Very few reports this have described venous system such as common femoral vein, wrist area veins, lesser saphenous vein iliac (2). Surgery known to be a standard therapy disease. Also there about less...
Phospholipase D (PLD)2 via its enzymatic activity regulates cell proliferation and migration thus is implicated in cancer. However, the role of PLD2 obesity type 2 diabetes has not previously been investigated. Here, we show that during diet-induced thermogenesis obesity, levels but PLD1 adipose tissue are inversely related with uncoupling protein 1, a key thermogenic protein. We demonstrate program significantly augmented mice adipocyte-specific Pld2 deletion or treated PLD2-specific...
The purpose of this study was to assess the role addition coronal reformatted images MDCT in evaluation suspected acute appendicitis pediatric patients.In patients with appendicitis, scans axial increases confidence diagnosis or exclusion appendicitis.
We examined the role of phospholipase D2 (PLD2) on acetaminophen (APAP)-induced acute liver injury using a PLD2 inhibitor (CAY10594). 500 mg/kg APAP challenge caused damage. CAY10594 administration markedly blocked in dose-dependent manner, showing almost complete inhibition with 8 CAY10594. During pathological progress injury, GSH levels are decreased, and this is significantly recovered upon at 6 hours post challenge. GSK-3β (Serine 9)/JNK phosphorylation mainly involved APAP-induced...
Objective To determine by chest CT the proper compression landmark and depth for cardiopulmonary resuscitation in patients with pectus excavatum (PE). Methods The of 22 PE (mean age=27 years; range 16–53 years, 10 male) from March 2002 to September 2011 were retrospectively evaluated as follows: length sternum, external thickness/internal thickness (ET/IT) intrathoracic structures level lower half (LH) sternum. In addition, Haller index (HI) degree leftward displacement heart measured....
We present the multidetector CT findings with a pathologic correlation for case of solitary fibrous tumor located in trachea. The MDCT revealed well-circumscribed intraluminal mass arising from trachea, strong nodular enhancement periphery mass. pattern corresponded histopathologically to focal hypocellular area center and prominent blood vessels along also volume-rendered virtual bronchoscopic images this rare submucosal tracheal tumor.
Objectives:The purposes of this study were 1) to correlate the carotid intima-medial thickness (IMT) with risk factors atherosclerosis, 2) demonstrate standarized methods B-mode ultrasound (US) scanning artery and IMT measurement. Materials Methods:Bilateral arteries 95 adult volunteers scanned using 12 MHz linear probe. The mean bilateral was regarded as volunteer's IMT, which measured on far wall distal common artery. normality test for corre- lation tests between various known...
Abstract Obesity is a metabolic disorder that results from an imbalance of energy intake and consumption. As low‐grade chronic inflammation caused by obesity can lead to various complications, it important develop effective treatments against obesity. In this study, we investigate the effects WKYMVm, strong anti‐inflammatory agent, Administration WKYMVm into high fat diet (HFD)‐induced obese mice significantly attenuated body weight gain, food increased insulin sensitivity. HFD‐induced...
Granular cell tumors are rare benign that arise from Schwann cells. They especially in the gallbladder; indeed, only four cases have been reported English-language literature. This paper reports a granular tumor gallbladder and is first such report Korean woman. She was admitted to hospital with jaundice fever diagnosed acute hepatitis A. While hospitalized, well-demarcated round mass incidentally found her gallbladder. The A improved conservative care, but did not change size after 4...
