OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of bimatoprost 0.03% with brimonidine 0.2% in preventing intraocular pressure (IOP) elevations after neodymium:yttrium–aluminum–garnet (Nd:YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy.
METHODS
In this prospective, randomized, double-masked study, 195
BACKGROUND
Different osteotomy techniques have been proposed in order to improve postoperative course of impacted third molar extraction. The aim is to evaluate the possible advantages achieved with erbium yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Er:YAG) laser osteotomy compared with traditional
BACKGROUND
Photothermal destruction of hair shaft melanin with intense pulsed light (IPL) and neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) laser has become an effective treatment of hair removal.
OBJECTIVE
Our aim was to compare efficacy, satisfactory levels, safety, and side effects of Nd:YAG and IPL
Oral soft tissue lesions cause discomfort and potentially serious clinical problems.These case reports present different gingival and/or mucosal lesions (pyogenic granuloma, verruca vulgaris, giant cell granuloma, fibroma, etc.) and the surgical treatment A 65-year-old male underwent intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) injection for treating a clinically significant macular edema (CSME) due to background diabetic retinopathy in his left eye. On the first postoperative day, visual acuity dropped from 20/80 to hand movements. Slit-lamp
OBJECTIVE
To describe the use of the neodymium-yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) laser to lyse residual cortex after phacoemulsification cataract surgery and report the complications and outcomes of treatment.
METHODS
Interventional, retrospective case series.
METHODS
Consecutive patients who
BACKGROUND
Bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a serious complication of lung resection. The management of persistent BPF is one of the most complex challenges encountered by thoracic surgeons.
METHODS
We used neodymium:yttrium-aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser in 8 patients with BPF who were treated at
This case report aims to highlight the role of photodisruptive neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) (1064 nm) laser in the treatment of bleb dysesthesia, which occurs in overhanging blebs or with perilimbal spread. Although treatment of such dysesthetic blebs with laser photocoagulation
This case study reports our clinical and laboratory investigation of the accidental death of a pregnant rural woman related to phosphine exposure from stored grain fumigated with aluminum phosphide (AIP3) pellets. Environmental data (housing proximity to fumigated grain and meteorologic conditions
Aluminum phosphide (ALP) is highly toxic to the lungs, heart and blood vessels causing pulmonary edema, shock and arrhythmias. There is massive focal myocardial damage resulting in raised cardiac enzymes. This study included 92 patients of proven ALP poisoning. The age varied between 20-50 years and
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the incidence of visually significant cystoid macular edema associated with the use of latanoprost in patients with glaucoma after cataract surgery.
METHODS
This is a multicenter, retrospective study of 185 patients, of whom 173 were pseudophakic (212 eyes) and 12 were
Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics of extremely severe burn patients complicated with severe inhalation injury caused by dust explosion. Methods: The medical records of 13 extremely severe burn patients complicated with severe inhalation injury in August 2nd Kunshan factory
Freshwater stingrays are cartilaginous fish with stingers at the base of their tail. The stinger is covered with an epithelium containing mucous and venom glands. Human envenomation usually occurs when a person steps on a stingray hiding in the sand and the fish sinks its stinger into the victim,
OBJECTIVE
Because of the known sodium and water retention associated with growth hormone (GH) therapy, it is crucial to evaluate the safety of GH after brain injury. To clarify this issue, we investigated whether GH affects brain edema in a rat brain freeze-injury model.
METHODS
Male Wistar rats (n
