Radiolabeled amino acids are useful for brain tumor diagnosis, but unspecific uptake near the cerebral hematoma may complicate the differentiation of a neoplastic from a nonneoplastic origin of the hematoma. The aim of this study was to investigate the pattern and time course of
We describe a 71-year-old-patient receiving antiplatelet therapy and being attended by emergency medical services for psychomotor retardation and gait disturbance. An emergency computed tomographic scan showed a bilateral subacute hematoma. The patient reported a fall 2 weeks earlier. We performed
Imatinib mesylate and other tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that inhibit BCR-ABL have had a favorable impact on the treatment of Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). TKIs are generally well tolerated, but they can induce platelet dysfunction, which is of
Dasatinib, which is an inhibitor of BCR-ABL and SRC family tyrosine kinases, is used for the treatment of patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) positive leukemia, especially for those who develop resistance or who are intolerant to imatinib. The most common adverse effects attributed to its use
Imatinib mesylate is a widely used tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) treatment. Imatinib has contributed to complete and prolong cytogenetic responses so that it is now the standard treatment of CML. Recently, Imatinib mesylate has shown a significantly prolonged
Background and Purpose- Heme and iron are considered to be key factors responsible for secondary insults after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Our previous study showed that LRP1 (low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1)-Hx (hemopexin) facilitates removal of heme. The TLR7 (Toll-like
PET using O-(2-[(18)F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine ((18)F-FET) allows improved imaging of tumor extent of cerebral gliomas in comparison to MRI. In experimental brain infarction and hematoma, an unspecific accumulation of (18)F-FET has been detected in the area of reactive astrogliosis which is a common
BACKGROUND
Despite new treatment options targeted at its three main pathogenic pathways, prognosis of idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension has remained dismal, with 3-year survival rates around 70 %. Antiproliferative agents have emerged as a new therapeutic concept. However, they may exert
BACKGROUND
Myeloid sarcoma (MS) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a rare entity which is suggestive of advanced phase of the disease and poorer outcomes. There is little data in literature available regarding its presentation in medullary chronic phase (CP) as well as outcomes in the era of
Donor site preparation is a critical step before the application of an autologous split-thickness skin graft (STSG). Comorbidities can lead to complications and graft loss, including that due to hematoma. In this case, a bilayer collagen matrix was used as a temporary wound dressing in a 25-year-old
Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) belongs to a novel family of endothelial growth factors that function as ligands for an endothelialspecific receptor tyrosine kinase (Tie-2). The Ang-/Tie-2 system may contribute to angiogenesis and vascular remodeling by mediating interactions of endothelial cells with smooth
Severe pulmonary hypertension (PH) is rare in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Pulmonary arterial hypertension drugs are vasodilators and may cause severe side effects in these patients. Hence, they are not recommended except in right heart failure on an individual basis. Imatinib, a
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the mechanisms of Buyang Huanwu Decoction (BYHWD) by observing its effects on expressions of angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and the endothelial-specific receptor tyrosine kinase (Tie-2) mRNA in damaged region of rats' brain after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
METHODS
One hundred
This study established a rat model of cerebral hemorrhage by injecting autologous anticoagulated blood. Rat models were intragastrically administered 5, 10, 20 g/kg Poxue Huayu and Tianjing Busui Decoction, supplemented with Hirudo, raw rhubarb, raw Pollen Typhae, gadfly, Fructrs Trichosanthis,
Preeclampsia is characterized by an imbalance in angiogenic factors. Urinary prolactin (PRL) levels and its antiangiogenic PRL fragments have been associated with disease severity. In this study, we assessed whether these biomarkers are associated with an increased risk of adverse maternal and
