Muscle structure and blood enzyme activity were studied to 16 wk of age in lines turkeys selected for rapid growth. The body carcass weights measured, frozen sections breast leg muscles examined, plasma creatine kinase (CK) levels determined. usually proportional BW except the relatively larger superficial pectoralis (SP) most rapidly growing line. Damaged muscle fibers found all especially SP breast, gastrocnemius (GA), other leg; these damages became more common from 10 age. There...
Postoperative residual neuromuscular blockade continues to be a frequent occurrence with reported incidence rate of up 64%. However, the effect postoperative on health care utilization remains unclear. We conducted retrospective cohort study investigate effects hospital costs (primary outcome), intensive unit admission rate, and length stay (secondary outcomes).
BACKGROUND: The anticholinesterase neostigmine and the muscarinic inhibitor glycopyrrolate are frequently coadministered for reversal of neuromuscular blockade. This practice can precipitate severe bradycardia or tachycardia, but whether it affects incidence cardiovascular complications remains unclear. We hypothesized that with versus no increases risk postoperative among adult patients undergoing noncardiac surgery general anesthesia. METHODS: conducted a prespecified retrospective...

Clinical presentation: A 75-year-old male with previous 3 vessel CABG and bioprosthetic aortic valve (BAV) surgical replacement in 2013 was admitted severe sepsis from diabetic foot ulcer complicated Group Streptococcus bacteremia infective root aortitis. Imaging Findings: Initial technically limited transthoracic echocardiogram followed by a transesophageal (TEE) that demonstrated well seated BAV mildly thickened leaflets but no vegetations, mild intra-valvular regurgitation, 9 mm...
