A total of 118 patients with cervical spinal cord injury were studied to determine the neurologic improvement achieved by either conservative or surgical treatment. Useful recovery was observed in 55% incomplete injuries, but none those complete injuries. There no significant difference between treatment groups regarding improvement. In experimental studies on rats, increased levels lipid peroxides and thromboxane after found be proportional magnitude injury. These evidences suggest that is...
Bronchial responsiveness to acetaldehyde, a main factor in alcohol-induced bronchoconstriction, and methacholine were compared between 10 subjects with bronchoconstriction 16 asthmatic without alcohol sensitivity. In the alcohol-sensitive group, geometric mean (geometric SEM (GSEM)) of provocative concentration (PC20,meth) acetaldehyde (PC20,acet) causing 20% fall forced expiratory volume one second 0.947 mg x mL(-1) (GSEM 0.139) 21.0 0.112), respectively, which not significantly different...

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is clinically characterized by vertical gaze palsy, postural instability with falls and poor response to dopaminergic drugs. We evaluated the efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) open-label 5 Hz 5000 pulses for ten days over supplementary motor area in seven PSP cases. Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale (PSPRS) improved 7 points compared baseline (pre=48, post=41, p<0.05). rTMS might be a therapeutic tool treat neurological sign PSP.
Abstract Cognitive test duration is related to brain lesions. However, few studies have addressed automated timing. CADi2 a cognitive evaluation software. This study aimed evaluate the use of automatically calculating time required answer questions in 10-item CADi2, addition questionnaire score, assess function and estimate asymptomatic Among 556 patients who underwent scan at Shimane Institute Health Science between March 28, 2019 24, 2021 interacted with we enrolled 429 aged ≥ 50 years...
Volvulus is a condition in which the small bowel and proximal colon twist around superior mesenteric artery, surgical emergency associated with high intrauterine morbidity mortality. Intestinal volvulus can occur at any age, but most cases of infants anomalies intestinal rotation fixation. without malrotation rare condition, as only normal fixation are present. The authors report case one fetus twins.
脳動脈解離は，若年発症の脳梗塞の原因となり得る病態であるが，微細な変化にとどまり，診断に難渋することがある．症例は40歳男性．視野障害で来院した．MRI拡散強調像で後方循環に点状の高信号を散在性に認めたが，MRAでは異常はみられなかった．抗血栓療法を行ったが，後方循環に1カ月間に3度の脳梗塞を繰り返した．その間に生理検査や画像検査を行ったが，原因を同定できなかった．血液検査では抗リン脂質抗体が陽性であった．血管造影検査を行い，右椎骨動脈V2–3移行部の膨隆を認め，動脈解離と診断した．解剖学的に右椎骨動脈が横突起孔を通過する部分で，頸部回旋などに際して損傷したものと判断した．同一血管へ脳梗塞を繰り返している場合には，経時的に血管造影を含めた画像診断を行う必要性があると考えられた．
【背景および目的】脳小血管病に関連する脳卒中発症の予測因子として，臨床的な因子に加え頭部MRIにおける無症候性脳病変が知られており，これらを組み合わせた脳卒中発症リスクスコアの開発を試みた．【方法】ヘルスサイエンスセンター島根の脳ドック受診者1,790名を対象とし，受検後の脳卒中発症の有無を調査した．背景因子およびMRI所見の比較から脳卒中発症に寄与する因子を抽出し，脳卒中発症リスクのスコア化を試みた．【結果】高齢（65歳以上），高血圧，無症候性脳梗塞，深部白質病変，微小脳出血の5項目がそれぞれ有意なリスク因子となった．各項目1点とし，0点の群を基準とした脳卒中発生ハザード比では，3点で16.8（P<0.01），4点で44.0（P<0.005），5点で121.2（P<0.001）であった．【結論】血管障害リスクにMRI画像所見を組み合わせ，より精緻な脳卒中発症予測スコアを作成できた．
In this study the effectivensess of computed tomographic discography (CTD) in diagnosing cervical soft disc hernia was evaluated. Twenty-five intervertebral discs 15 cases with were examined a and then CT scan. Results scan as follows: three protruded, 12 prolapsed, 6 extruded, 4 sequestrated. The findings helpful determining location hernians between median posterolateral discs. They also valuable classifying types surgical approaches.
Avulsion fractures of the anterior iliac spine were observed in 6 adolescents. The patients, 5 boys and 1 girl, between 12 15 years old. All occurred while patients engaged vigorous sports, such as short-distance running soccer. avulsion superior 4 cases inferior 2 cases. Open reduction was necessary whom displacement or more than 3cm. One patient treated by cast immobilization. We consider that suitable treatment should be given soon possible after careful clinical radiological assessment fracture.
Recently we have experienced a case of the lumbar disc extruded posterolaterally in extradural space, which suspected spinal cord tumor. A 42-year-old man was admitted to our clinic with complaints gait and rectovesicular disturbance. Lumbar myelogram showed incomplete block at L2-L3 spece. Laminectomy done an tumor removed completely. The histological findings slightly degenerative intervertebral disc. Now ten months after surgery, motor sensory disorder has disappeared.
