OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of different resuscitative fluids on the healing of intestinal anastomosis in a hemorrhagic-shock rat model.
METHODS
Closed-colony Wistar male rats (n = 40; 8 rats per group) were subjected to volume-controlled hemorrhagic shock, followed
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of different resuscitation solutions on wound healing in an animal model of sublethal hemorrhagic shock.
METHODS
Sublethal hemorrhagic shock was established by blood withdrawal until the mean arterial pressure fell to 40 mmHg within 15 min.
BACKGROUND
The authors are aware of only one article investigating amino acid concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms, and this was published 31 years ago. Since then, both management of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) and amino acid assay
It is unclear if vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is predominantly due to smooth-muscle contraction, proliferative vasculopathy, or other changes within the arterial wall such as fibrosis or change in smooth-muscle phenotype. In this study, immunohistochemistry was used to examine
BACKGROUND
Several studies indicate impaired wound healing after trauma and shock. Wound immune cell dysfunction seems to be responsible for altered wound healing after trauma-hemorrhage (T-H). In this respect, administration of the amino acid L-arginine normalized wound immune cell function under
To determine whether parenteral L-arginine supplementation enhances the impaired wound healing of rats subjected to trauma/hemorrhagic shock. Impaired wound healing after trauma and shock has been documented experimentally and clinically. L-arginine has been shown to enhance wound strength and
Traditional Chinese medicine has been used to treat a variety of human diseases for many centuries. Zanthoxylum nitidum var. tomentosum is used as an adjuvant to promote blood circulation and remove stasis. However, the mechanisms of improving circulation and other biological activities of Z.
An assessment of nutritional status using anthropometric and biochemical measurements was made during pregnancy in 8 European and 15 Asian women who produced babies which were light for gestational age. These results were compared with similar measurements in women of both races with normal or
Five men and three women with active acromegaly were treated with bromocriptine. After three months' therapy (30 mg/day) mean GH during the day decreased by 50% in six out of eight subjects. In the remaining two subjects (non-responders) GH was persistently over 100 micrograms/l. Mean GH during
We sought to delineate mechanisms through which the lack of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 in the heart affects remodeling of the heart early after myocardial infarction (MI). MI was induced by coronary occlusion in 10-weeks old PAI-1 knockout (KO) and control mice. Three days after MI,
BACKGROUND
Major complications of colonic anastomosis include fistula, bleeding, and anastomotic stricture, and the most common one is anastomotic leakage. Many organic or inorganic tissue adhesives are being used such as fibrin glue or cyanoacrylate to strengthen or protect colonic anastomosis. Up
Portal hypertension is a common complication of chronic liver diseases associated with liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. At present, beta-blockers such as carvedilol remain the medical treatment of choice for protection against variceal bleeding and other complications. Since carvedilol has powerful
BACKGROUND
[corrected] Euphorbia caducifolia is a Euphorbiaceae species native to Thar Desert of India, where latex of E. caducifolia (ECL) is used by the local inhabitants for treatment of bleeding wound, cutaneous eruption and other skin diseases. Looking to the medicinal importance of the plant,
Aegyptin is a 30 kDa mosquito salivary gland protein that binds to collagen and inhibits platelet aggregation. We have studied the biophysical properties of aegyptin and its mechanism of action. Light-scattering plot showed that aegyptin has an elongated monomeric form, which explains the apparent
Staple-line bleeding and leakage is a life-threatening complication in obese patients following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. The aim of this study was to examine the potential effects of Ankaferd blood stopper (ABS) and Fibrin Sealant (FS; Tisseel®) on sleeve gastrectomy staple-line
