Intravaginal or extravaginal spermatic cord torsion is a diagnostic challenge for the surgeon and radiologist. Color Doppler sonography can be inaccurate, leading to dangerous false-negative results. To date, no single reliable test has been able provide 100% accuracy. The direct visualization of twisted during emergency high resolution ultrasonography proposed avoid systematic abusive surgical exploration. aim this multicenter study was assess validity reproducibility based management acute...
The aim of the present national prospective population-based study was to assess early morbidity esophageal atresia (EA).All 38 multidisciplinary French centers that care for patients with EA returned a specific questionnaire about 1-year outcome each patient. This information centralized, checked, and entered into database.From total population 307 born in 2008 2009, data were obtained from 301 (98%) patients, whom 4% lost follow-up 5% died. Medical complications occurred 34% patients:...
Osteolytic bone lesions are common in patients with multiple myeloma (MM), a clonal plasma cell disorder, and result from increased osteoclastic resorption decreased osteoblastic formation. Because mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) committed towards of the osteoblast lineage, we compared vitro characteristics MSCs marrow 18 MM (MM-MSCs) eight normal donors (ND-MSCs). MM-MSCs displayed deficient growth that could be explained part by reduced expression several factor receptors on surface ND-MSCs....
Our retrospective study compared the results of three surgical procedures for correction pediatric vesicoureteral reflux (VUR): open Cohen, laparoscopic Lich-Gregoir reimplantation (LEVUR), and endoscopic subureteric injection (STING) procedure.We analyzed 90 patients (50 girls, 40 boys, average age 4.86 years) operated in two centers surgery VUR. Exclusion criteria were Grade 1 VUR, 5 VUR with megaureters requiring ureteral tapering, secondary already Thirty underwent 30 LEVUR, STING...
Objectives. Video-surgery in neonates is recent. Data on the respiratory, hemodynamic, and thermic effects during first month of life are still sparse. This study aimed to evaluate tolerance video-surgery determine risk factors per-operative complications. Methods. From 1994 2004, 49 (mean age: 11 days; weight: 3285 g) underwent 50 video-surgical procedures. Indications for laparoscopy were duodenal atresias, volvulus with malrotation, pyloric stenosis, gastroesophageal reflux, cystic...
Forty-six patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) were treated autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) in two different institutions. All pretreated conventional chemotherapy. Three conditioning regimens used, and 20 underwent purging. Twelve first complete remission (CR); eight are unmaintained CR 8 to 104 months after ABMT. Five grafted partial (PR) therapy; all achieved CR, remain prolonged (first for four patients, second one patient). Of 21 chemosensitive relapses, 13 94 Eight...
In 2017, the European Commission launched 24 Reference Networks (ERNs). ERN eUROGEN is network for urorectogenital diseases and complex conditions, started with 29 full member healthcare providers (HCPs) in 11 countries. It then covered 19 different disease areas distributed over three workstreams (WSs).To provide an overview identify challenges data collection at level of patient population treated by HCPs network.A retrospective cohort study was conducted who were members between 2013...
Abstract Background Long-gap esophageal atresia (LGEA) can complicate the management of (EA) with or without a tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). This series describes short interval, staged, thoracoscopic internal traction approach for LGEA distal TEF to manage complex anastomotic tension an anatomically impossible anastomosis. Methods A retrospective review (2018–2024) was performed across four tertiary centers identify patients and TEF, managed approach. In first stage, ligated sutures were...
Crime analysis is essential to put in place efective security policies. This study focuses on creating an index assess borough prosecuted crime Colombia from 2018 2023. The integrates variables of criminal offences along with population density identify spatiotemporal patterns criminality and high-risk hotspots through geographically temporally weighted principal component analysis. implementation a robust tool allowed better explanation the phenomenon, highlighting relevance autocorrelation...
Purpose To evaluate corneal structural modifications induced by the deswelling period in dextran-containing medium following organ culture. Methods Twenty human corneas were organ-cultured for 2 weeks and subsequently incubated Exosol (Opsia, Toulouse, France) 1–4 days. Corneas studied means of light microscopy, morphometry, transmission electron microscopy. Results The a statistically significant 8.4% endothelial cell loss 27.4% increase coefficient variation. layer remained intact. basal...
