Objective To determine if early postoperative feeding of patients with upper gastrointestinal malignancy, using an enteral diet supplemented arginine, dietary nucleotides, and omega-3 fatty acids (IMPACT[registered sign], Sandoz Nutrition, Bern, Switzerland) results in improved clinical outcome, i.e., reduced infectious wound complications decreased treatment costs when compared isocaloric, isonitrogenous control diet. Design A prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind,...
Objective A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter trial was undertaken in 205 patients treated with total gastrectomy for gastric malignancies to evaluate whether local antimicrobial measures reduce the incidence of esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage. Summary Background Data Anastomotic leakage esophagojejunostomy is always a septic complication malignancies, but it never has been attempted prevent this administration topical agents during critical phase...
The purpose of this work was to use an extended CT scale technique (ECTS) reduce artifacts due metal implants and optimize imaging parameters for using experimental model.Osteotomies were performed in 20 porcine femur specimens. One hundred cobalt-base screws 24 steel plates used osteosynthesis these Artificial lesions produced 50 screws, such as osteolysis near the (mimicking lysis infection, tumor, or loosening), displacement well fractures screws. All specimens examined eight different...
The therapeutic efficacy of an antimicrobial peptide, human lactoferrin 1-11 (hLF1-11), was investigated in a model chronic methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) (gentamicin susceptible) osteomyelitis rabbits. We incorporated 50 mg hLF1-11/g or gentamicin/g cement powder into calcium phosphate bone (Ca-P) and injected it the debrided tibial cavity, creating local drug delivery system. hLF1-11 gentamicin compared to that sham-treated control (plain cement) (n=6) no treatment...
Following curettage of enchondromata the phalanges we filled resultant bone cavity with hydroxyapatite cement in eight patients to avoid cancellous grafting. This material differs significantly from ceramic commonly used clinical practice. It is produced by combination two calcium phosphates which, presence water, form a paste that cures solid implant microporous structure. Like hydroxyapatite, this highly biocompatible and does not provoke foreign body giant cell reaction, sustained...
Studienziel: Evaluation der klinischen und radiologischen Ergebnisse nach einzeitiger extrafokaler dorsaler Stabilisierung, ventralem Débridement Rekonstruktion ventralen Säule bei Spondylodiszitis Brust- Lendenwirbelsäule. Methode: Retrospektive Analyse peri- postoperativen Parameter von 62 Patienten, wobei in 46 Fällen eine klinische radiologische Verlaufskontrolle mit einem mittleren Nachbeobachtungszeitraum 2,6 Jahren möglich war. In 42 wurde ventrale Substanzdefekt durch...
A 51-year-old woman was accidentally given an intra-arterial injection of 10 mg diazepam to control acute claustrophobic anxiety attack. She complained severe knocking pain in the entire left arm during injection. On second day hand and lower were red swollen she increasingly feeling cold having paraesthesias. fifth radial half palm as well first third digits showed livid discoloration. In further course necrotic areas developed palmar aspect distal phalanx thumb index finger proximal middle...
The aim of the present study was to compare usefulness mechanical osteotomy tools and common laser systems with ultraviolet (UV) in field central nervous system its bony capsule.The cranial bones 42 living rats were treated UV radiation wavelengths 193 nm 248 nm. morphology physical effects evaluated by means optical scanning electron microscopy.This shows special characteristics excimer versus infrared lasers or tools, such as high precision, no thermic damage, little depth effect, delay...
Differential diagnosis in patients with acute abdominal pain represents a difficult assignment surgery involving the indication for urgent operation and technique.The value of sonography diseases bowels correct early laparotomy was investigated.In retrospective analysis we compared result on 159 first clinical assessment.The sensitivity this technique found to be 38.9% appendicitis, 57.1% diverticulitis 76.9% obstructive ileus. The specificity ranged above 90% each case. In consideration...
