Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) are incretin hormones. Lack of GLP-1 receptor signaling has been reported to be compensated for by increased GIP secretion action. Conversely sensitivity in knockout ( Gipr -/- ) mice. This suggests a compensatory adaptation loss via action/secretion the remaining hormone. We assessed glucose-stimulated during oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) isolated perfused intestines Glp-1r mice their wild-type...
Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate if access orthopedic surgery differs by healthcare coverage in a country with dual system adjusted age, sex, and urgent elective conditions. We hypothesize that differential would exist according the type of coverage. difference accentuate when analyzing surgery. Methods A cross-sectional, population-based design was used investigate rates Chile 2018. The surgeries provided under private public systems were calculated per 1,000 inhabitants...
Purpose: To evaluate the safety and performance of Treovance stent-graft. Methods: The global, multicenter RATIONALE registry ( ClinicalTrials.gov; identifier NCT03449875) prospectively enrolled 202 patients (mean age 73.0±7.8 years; 187 men) with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) suitable for endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) using Treovance. composite primary endpoint was site-reported all-cause mortality major morbidity. efficacy outcome clinical success. Further outcomes evaluated...
To describe, for the first time in dogs, ocular lesions induced by pine processionary caterpillar (PPC) setae, and associated corneal histopathology, medical treatment, outcome.One hundred forty client-owned dogs from Spain were studied. One twenty came central area of Spain, 13 southern area, six northern one dog Mediterranean area.Medical records four veterinary ophthalmology practices reviewed. Dogs that presented endemic areas had PPC setae identified during their ophthalmic examination...
Frostbite is a common injury in high altitude medicine. Intravenous vasodilators have proven efficacy and, recently, been proposed as safe outpatient treatment. Nevertheless, the lack of availability and consequently delayed application this treatment option can result poor clinical outcomes for patients. We present case 60-year-old Chilean man with severe frostbite injuries suffered while climbing Mount Everest. The patient was initially given field to extent permitted by conditions...

In the neuronal electrically stimulated vas deferens of rat, responses evoked by morphine, β-endorphin and catecholamines were studied. The tissue was obtained from rats at various times (7–60 days) following castration, adrenalectomy castration with adrenalectomy. Pharmacological data are presented which verify an increased reponsiveness to morphine after or without contrast, decreased responsiveness observed alone. Decreased Since unchanged this treatment (castration, adrenalectomy), it is...
Objective: The objective of this study is to analyze the factors that may impact on development trigger digit (TD) in patients with carpal tunnel release (CTR). Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort who underwent surgery for syndrome (CTS) and/or TD between January 2004 May 2014, at our institution. Inclusion criteria were treatment least one or CTS age older than 18 years. performed manual chart review participants analyzed following factors: age, gender, previous TD,...
Introduction: Most studies about surgical treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) focus on specific population subgroups, worker’s compensation patients, or types treatment. There are no general epidemiological characterization surgically treated patients with CTS. Factors such as gender, age, and health insurance status may influence the rate Purpose: Evaluate factors in CTS surgery a mixed care system. Materials Methods: Nationwide transversal study total Chile during 2012. The surgeries...
