Heparin of an average molecular weight 13,000 with known polydispersity was degraded using microbial heparinase.The kinetics this degradation were followed by four assays which measured the anticoagulant activity heparin digestion products.Both clotting and amidolytic chromogenic used to measure heparin-potentiated inhibition both thrombin Factor Xa.These showed different profiles throughout related products.The final products enzymatic fractionated on basis size their activities...
Abstract Background : Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has emerged as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in patients at high risk for complications from surgery. The very elderly (≥80‐year‐old) are one subgroup of identified being increased However, there is concern that the also CAS. A stroke and death rate 12% was reported during roll‐in phase Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stent Trial (CREST). We reporting on a large clinical series CAS with independent neurological...
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to measure activity in human somatosensory cortex and test for cross-digit suppression. Subjects received stimulation (vibration of varying amplitudes) the right thumb (target) with or without concurrent middle finger (mask). were less sensitive target (psychophysical detection thresholds higher) when mask digits stimulated concurrently compared isolation. fMRI voxels a region left postcentral gyrus each responded either digit stimulated....
Abstract Background We describe and characterize the performance of microEEG compared to that a commercially available widely used clinical EEG machine. is portable, battery-operated, wireless device, developed by Bio-Signal Group overcome obstacles routine use in emergency departments (EDs). Methods The was obtain EEGs from healthy volunteers laboratory ED. standard system laboratory, studies recorded patients ED or ICU were also for comparison. In one experiment, signal splitter record...
Prior reports of handcuff-related neuropathies have been retrospective or small series cases selected for their unusual electrophysiological historical features. We conducted a prospective 27-month study at large, urban, teaching hospital all patients with complaint hand numbness, weakness, paresthesias attributed to overtightened handcuffs. Forty-one were evaluated clinically, and electrodiagnostic testing was performed on 18. In the group testing, due handcuffs detected in 22 superficial...
Summary Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) can impair interictal cognitive function. In the perceptual domain, previous psychophysical studies demonstrated specific deficits in auditory and tactile perception patients with TLE. This study compared performance of 25 TLE subjects 27 controls on two low‐level, visual tasks: luminance discrimination frequency discrimination. Both tasks were performed under a relatively easy difficult condition, by adjusting stimulus duration. as well both at...
Abstract Objectives Altered mental status ( AMS ) is a common presentation in the emergency department ED ). A previous study revealed 78% electroencephalogram EEG abnormalities, including nonconvulsive seizure NCS ; 5%), patients with . The objective of this was to assess impact on clinical management and outcomes Methods This randomized controlled trial at two urban teaching hospitals. Adult (≥18 years old) were included. Excluded had immediately correctable (e.g., hypoglycemia) or...
