Abstract Objective This study aims to evaluate the impact of point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) and computed tomography (CT) on emergency department (ED) length stay (LOS) time surgical consultation in patients with mild acute cholecystitis (AC). Methods Adult CT-confirmed grade I AC were retrospectively enrolled divided into PoCUS-first group CT-first group. The primary outcome was relationship between door-to-ultrasound (US)/CT ED-LOS. secondary door-to-US/CT consultation. Results A total...
For patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), computed tomography angiography (CTA) has been the first imaging modality for aneurysm detection. We evaluate rate, time distribution, risk factors, and clinical outcome of aneurysmal rebleeding by CTA findings.Consecutive SAH presenting to our hospital, a tertiary care were retrospectively included. reviewed images all receiving an initial noncontrast scan further nontraumatic surveillance focus on evidence.A total 12 early (12/110 [10.9%])...
Background: Contemporary periorbital rejuvenation is undergoing a paradigm shift to an approach that prioritizes volume preservation and/or augmentation. However, the technical difficulties of using traditional fat grafting techniques in this area and distinct ethnic features make Asians especially challenging. Here, authors present their enhance periorbita outcomes. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed for 33 consecutive patients who underwent microautologous transplantation...
Intensive care unit (ICU) mortality prediction helps to guide therapeutic decision making for critically ill patients. Several scoring systems based on statistical techniques have been developed this purpose. In study, we a machine-learning model predict patient in the very early stage of ICU admission.
Abstract Recombinant human granulocyte‐colony stimulating factor (rhG‐CSF) is the most common hematopoietic growth used for chemotherapy‐induced neutropenia or mobilization of stem cells. Natural killer (NK) cells are critical host defense against infected and tumors. However, cellular molecular events NK responding to rhG‐CSF remain unclear. Toward this end, we treated with assessed their cytotoxic function as well proteomic characteristics. Unlike other tested cytokines, decreased...
Background: Along with the improvement in resuscitation science and post-cardiac arrest care, an increasing number of cardiac (CA) victims survived to hospital discharge. Research Questions: Do survivors return their life work after discharge? Aims: To investigate whether quality, ability, neurological recovery improves continuously within 1 year Methods: The retrospective single center study enrolled 169 non-traumatic adult CA patients who discharge between 2017 2020. following were...
Abstract Background To investigate the work status, neurological recovery, and quality of life cardiac arrest survivors within 1 year after hospital discharge. Methods A retrospective single center study included 71 non-traumatic adult patients between 2017 2020, who survived more than discharge agreed to participate study. Questionnaire interviews through telephone visits were conducted with enrolled patients, assessing their at 3 months Additionally, use medical services was also...
Neuromyelitis optica (NMO, also known as Devic's syndrome) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system characterized by recurrent optic neuritis and acute transverse myelitis. The was initially considered variant multiple sclerosis (MS). However, recent literature had suggested that NMO distinct from MS, with poorer prognosis different therapy. Therefore, it important to distinguish MS soon possible. presentations myelitis in patients can be separate or simultaneous clinical...
鼻咽癌很少以昏厥作為一開始的臨床表現,此篇報告1名55歲女性病患,主訴為失去意識一段時間被送至本院急診,到院時並無發現明顯的神經理學檢查異常,也沒有明顯的顱内病灶,然而在頭頸影像學檢查發現右側淋巴結腫大及右側鼻咽部顯影。右側鼻咽部切片,病理報告為未分化未角化癌,癌症分期結果為鼻咽癌,cT2N2M0,第三期。右側頸部淋巴結病變包圍著頸動脈分叉,判斷為腫大淋巴結壓迫到頸動脈竇引起昏厥。我們使用升壓口服藥物Midodrine來預防昏厥發生,後續接受併用化學放射療法,經過一段時間治療,昏厥在沒有使用藥物的情況下也已改善。臨床上很難從暈厥表現發現鼻咽癌,若能早期發現,早期介入治療,就能改善病患預後。
