Abstract We have previously demonstrated that sickle cell disease (SCD) patients maintain normal global systemic and cerebral oxygen delivery by increasing cardiac output. However, ischemic end‐organ injury remains common suggesting tissue may be impaired microvascular dysregulation or damage. To test this hypothesis, we performed fingertip laser Doppler flowmetry measurements at the base of nailbed regional saturation (rSO 2 ) on dorsal surface same hand. This was done during flow mediated...
Objective Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are known to have adverse effects on the survival of women with endometrial cancer. Because monocytes function as progenitors macrophages, this study examined association between monocyte count at first recurrence/progression cancer and time after (SAR). Methods This is a retrospective evaluating 141 consecutive cases recurrent surgical staging (n = 114) progression nonsurgical management 27). Complete blood cell counts differentiation were...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Postoperative membrane separation is a complication of selective laser photocoagulation communicating vessels (SLPCV) for the treatment twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). <b><i>Objective:</i></b> The aim this work was to determine whether quantitative grading system following SLPCV associated with preterm premature rupture membranes (PPROM) and delivery (PTD). <b><i>Methods:</i></b>...
A 21-year-old man presented to casualty following a roadside bomb blast. traumatic pneumothorax necessitated the insertion of chest drain, and laparotomy revealed multiple liver lacerations ureteric contusion. While patient was awaiting further surgery after percutaneous nephrostomy, drain removed. One week later, lime-green serosanguinous fluid began leak from site, while cough up bitter yellow sputum. Biochemical analysis these fluids confirmed presence bilirubin, suggesting possibility...
• Sudden cardiac arrest can be a form of carboplatin hypersensitivity reaction. Platinum retreatment and cumulative cycles ≥ 8 are risk factors. Awareness the reaction related to infusion is necessary. Successful resuscitation with high quality CPR achievable trained staffs.
Abstract Due to the potential for severe maternal morbidity and even mortality, pregnancy-associated spontaneous coronary artery dissection (P-SCAD) often presents as a clinical conundrum. While current recommendations encourage interventions when medically indicated during pregnancy, hesitation still understandably exists. Meanwhile, given rarity of condition, guidelines management are based on expert consensus. We present case P-SCAD in 38-year-old woman with initial presentation at 28...
Introduction: Chorioamniotic membrane separation (CAS), preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM), and delivery (PTD) remain as major complications fetoscopic laser photocoagulation (FLP) for twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). We sought to examine whether use Quincke-tip needles initial entry during FLP reduces the risk these complications. Methods: This is a secondary analysis prospectively collected data from patients that had TTTS at single tertiary care center (2011–2021)....
In the setting of a growing obese obstetric population, we sought to determine whether differences in body mass index (BMI) and obesity class influenced both serum magnesium levels likelihood achieving therapeutic for eclampsia prophylaxis after standard boluses sulfate.
INTRODUCTION: Postoperative membrane separation is a complication of selective laser photocoagulation communicating vessels (SLPCV) for treatment twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). This study aims to determine its association with preterm premature rupture membranes (PPROM) and delivery (PTD). METHODS: TTTS patients who underwent SLPCV from 2006 2017 were retrospectively studied. Patients documented on ultrasound postoperative day (POD) 1 stratified into greatest width <1 cm (Group A)...
