Osteoarthritis (OA) contributes to significant medical and socioeconomic burden in many populations. Its prevalence is expected rise continuously owing the combined effects of aging increase risk factors, including obesity, physical inactivity, joint injuries. Pain a hallmark presentation OA. Topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are recommended by international guidelines as an early treatment option management osteoarthritic pain. However, use topical NSAIDs remains low...
Abstract Autologous nerve grafts to bridge gaps have donor site morbidity and possible neuroma formation resulting in development of various methods bridging without using autologous grafts. We fabricated an acellular muscle stuffed vein seeded with differentiated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as a substitute for autografts. Human were both decellularized by liquid nitrogen immersion subsequent hydrolysis hydrochloric acid. MSCs subjected series treatments reducing agent, retinoic acid,...
Uncomplicated falciparum malaria patients were randomly assigned to receive either 25 mg/kg chloroquine (CHL) over 3 d or a statim dose of sulfadoxine (SDX) plus 1.25 pyrimethamine (PYR). Patients followed up for 28 and the parasite response graded according World Health Organization criteria. Overall resistance CHL was 63.3% 47.4% SDX/PYR. RI, RII RIII rates 9.1%, 42.4% 12.1% 10.5%, 21.1% 15.8% SDX/PYR, respectively. Degree significantly correlated with pre-treatment density, but not those...
Fumonisins are the mycotoxin that is produced by Fusarium species which are found incereals and cereal-based foods products. This toxin causes esophageal cancer inhumans, leucoencephalomalasia in horses and pulmonary edema in swine, other hostsinclude cattle, chicken and other pets. In this study, 42 samples of wheat flour at bakeries and confectioneries were collected in Qaemshahr during spring 2011. Data analyzed by competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for total...
This study aimed to quantify changes in gait parameters and their symmetries among athletes with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions during a rehabilitation program. Twenty-two national players ACL 15 healthy were recruited. The data collected between postoperative weeks 4-5, 8-9 12-13 using three-dimensional motion analysis system. spatio-temporal symmetry indexes (SIs) evaluated for the patients control group. One-way repeated-measures multivariate of variance used analyse...
Introduction Satisfactory management of acute pain remains a major medical challenge despite the availability multiple therapeutic options including fixed-dose combination (FDC) drugs. Tramadol and dexketoprofen trometamol (TRAM/DKP) 75/25 mg FDC was launched in 2018 Asia is widely used moderate to severe pain. There are limited data on its effectiveness safety Asian patients, therefore, need better understand usage patterns clinical practice. We aim pattern TRAM/DKP FDC, tolerability...
Purpose We aimed to develop a method for quantitative assessment of wound healing in ulcerated diabetic feet. Methods High‐frequency ultrasound ( HFU ) images 30 wounds were acquired controlled environment on post‐debridement days 7, 14, 21, and 28. Meaningful features portraying changes structure intensity echoes during extracted from the images, their relevance discriminatory power being verified by analysis variance. Relative tissue was conducted developing features‐based function,...
A 56-year-old man became quadriplegic, bed bound, and carer-dependent secondary to cervical osteomyelitis. Three years later, he presented with generalised spasticity, crouched posture, a large sacral pressure sore. The severe spasticity in his hips knees prevented ischial sitting. Injections of botulinum toxin type both hamstrings gastrosoleuii controlled the flexor lower limbs facilitated rehabilitation wound healing through proper positioning, care, stretching, weight-bearing exercises....
Artery reconstruction in upper extremities is rare performed compare to the incidence of lower extremities. In many cases, primary vascular repair was performed, whenever, otherwise, interposition vein graft or venous bypass grafting were used order alleviate occlusion. However, after technique are applied, one more digital arteries blocked severely narrowed because mismatch end-to-side end-to-end reverse saphenous graft. The objective this study understand blood flow influence on with small...
In most cases, surgical vein bypass or interposition grafting was used in both primary management of crush-avulsion amputations and on intervention for rehabilitating the patency occluded arteries via microvascular surgery. However, revascularization has significant shortcomings, principal among which is high rate accelerated thrombosis that develops arterialised graft renders susceptible to acute occlusion eventually give rise failure. Evaluaion detection failure essential as will be...
CACIPLIQ20® significantly improved the outcomes of severe burn injuries hand. Healing was accelerated, with little or no scarring, allowing for greater mobility over joints and maintained suppleness. Functional recovery achieved in all cases.
This study aims to determine the usage pattern, effectiveness and safety of oral tramadol 75 mg dexketoprofen trometamol 25 fixed-dose combination (TRAM/DKP FDC) in short-term treatment moderate-to-severe acute pain real-world clinical practice Asia.
Secondary metastases to the hand or rare, accounting for 0.1% of all metastases, and commonly involve bones. Soft tissue involvement is extremely unusual although it significantly more common in carcinoma than sarcoma. Metastatic lesions adenocarcinoma return liver, lung vertebrae are well known. Here we report an site metastatic deposit primary soft tissues wrist causing carpal tunnel syndrome, which if correctly diagnosed earlier from symptoms could have prevented untimely amputation.
