Background: There are limited therapeutic options in cases of failed reperfusion (modified thrombolysis cerebral infarction [mTICI] score < 2b) after stent-retriever and/or aspiration based endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke. Despite the absence data supporting its use, rescue therapy (balloon angioplasty stent implantation) is often utilized such cases. Studies to large vessel occlusions, while outcomes and complications medium/distal occlusions (MDVOs) have not been...
Background: There are limited therapy options in case of failed reperfusion after stent-retriever and/or aspiration based endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke. Despite the absence data supporting its use, rescue angioplasty (RA; with or without stent implantation) is often utilized such cases. Studies to large vessel occlusions, while outcomes and complications RA medium/distal occlusions (MDVOs) have not been reported. This study aims report MDVO stroke patients. Methods:...
Background Preoperative embolization has been used for intracranial meningiomas nearly 40 years with varying preferences embolic materials and limited comparative data on their efficacy. Methods Consecutively treated patients from 2013 until 2023 who underwent preoperative meningioma 12 centers across North America Europe were included classified by material: (1) particles, (2) Onyx, (3) coils. Primary outcomes estimated blood loss (EBL), procedural complications, surgery duration, gross...
Despite all scientific efforts and many protracted expensive clinical trials, no new drug has been approved by FDA for treatment of Alzheimer disease (AD) since 2003. Indeed, more than 200 investigational programs have failed or abandoned in the last decade. The most probable explanations failures disease-modifying treatments (DMTs) AD may include late initiation during course development, inappropriate dosages, erroneous selection targets, mainly an inadequate understanding complex...
Since the outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) in 2019, various rare movement disorders and cognitive changes have been recognized as potential neurological complications. The early treatment some these allows rapid recovery; therefore, we must diagnose manifestations a timely way. We describe case 76-year-old man infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 who presented confusion hallucinations was admitted to our hospital 14 days after onset symptoms. One day later, he...
Donepezil is one of the cholinesterase inhibitors that are indicated for treatment mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Pharmacokinetic analysis has shown donepezil primarily eliminated by renal excretion rather than biliary in humans. Therefore, patients with impaired function at high risk toxicity caused accumulation this drug. It also well known dialysis have very often cholinergic disorders. On other hand, increasing number long-term chronic patients, prevalence cognitive disorders...
Low back pain affects an estimated half a billion people at any time worldwide. Although several noninvasive treatment strategies have been developed, in many cases, they cannot relief patients' symptoms, thus low discectomy is the appropriate of choice. It widely accepted that surgery alters biomechanics functional motion segment and results additional disc herniation adjacent level or opposite side, more commonly than expected. After discectomy, changes vertebral load properties kinetics...
Penile fractures are generally rare and underreported. The mechanism of injury is due to a rupture the corpora cavernosa following blunt or sexual trauma penis when fully erect. usually present with ‘popping’ sound concomitant sudden swelling ecchymosis followed by rapid detumescence. Urethral involvement occurs only in small part cases. Isolated spongiosal after intercourse also extremely rare. cardinal sign urethral blood at meatus. A laceration can be repaired simple closure absorbable...
Abstract Background and Aims Two semiquantitative single-antigen bead (SAB) methods are currently available for the detection of anti-HLA antibodies estimation their activity, depending on complement binding. However, data accordance two specificities reactivity evaluation scarce. The purpose this study is to compare in terms binding capacity Method Sera from 97 patients with a positive Panel Reactive Antibody Test (&gt;5%) was tested by SAB methods, Immucor (IC) One-lambda (OL), class I...
Leiomyosarcoma of the bladder is an aggressive and rare tumor, with less than 200 reported cases. The treatment leiomyosarcoma controversial although in most cases surgical therapy preferred. Usually, a radical cystectomy performed, as it considered to have better disease-specific survival rate. A 43-year-old man presented our Urology Department painless macroscopic hematuria. He was submitted transurethral resection tumor. complete revealed only this small single lesion rest normal no other...
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a primary neuroendocrine of the skin. The prognosis disease considered poor. Secondary metastasis common, however secondary to kidney from very rare phenomenon. We report case man with MCC right kidney. suggested management surgery and afterwards platinum-based chemotherapy.
In this case study, we present an unusual with squamous cell carcinoma surrounding the penis involving foreskin and glans of penis. addition, multiple satellite nodules were noted in pubis. A 57-year-old circumcised heterosexual male patient presented a penile lesion existing for 10 years. At same time, he was referred to outpatient memory clinic because persistent subjective complaints associated depression anxiety. The operated under general anaesthesia. resected circumferentially...
Two semi-quantitative, Luminex-based, single-antigen bead (SAB) assays are available to detect anti-HLA antibodies and evaluate their reactivity with complement binding. Sera from 97 patients positive panel reactive antibody tests (>5%) were analyzed two SAB tests, Immucor (IC) One-Lambda (OL), for detection the evaluation of complement-binding capacity. IC detected 1608/8148 (mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) 4195 (1995-11,272)) 1136/7275 (MFI 6706 (2647-13,184)) class I II specificities,...
Background Lessons from the past regarding impact of social and technological changes on injury profiles provide inexpensive meaningful reflections in assessing policies projects delivered for prevention. Objective To depict nearly one-century long, life-course experience seniors residing Velestino, a Greek agricultural town, comment transitional patterns following historical socio-cultural events. Methods Given lack individualised electronic/paper records during study period, 124 injuries,...
