The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) to determine the incidence of intrahepatic hematoma after liver biopsy by the aspiration technique and (2) to compare the incidence of hematoma after biopsy with a needle of 1.6 mm vs 1.9 mm OD. Fifty-one patients were randomly assigned to be biopsied with
The authors measured alkaline phosphatase isozyme I (ALP-I) in sera of 24 brain-damaged patients and four with disorders other than brain damage. The study population comprised three patients with postresuscitation encephalopathy, four with ruptured cerebral aneurysms, 14 with acute subdural
Enzymes are crucial for the metabolism of macromolecular substrates. In the great majority of cells, most enzymes are constitutive. Nevertheless, inducible enzymes can predominate, determining specialized cell functions. Within this context, histochemistry/immunohistochemistry and biochemistry were
Hematoma and skeletal muscles play a crucial role in bone fracture healing. The muscle resident mesenchymal stromal cells (mrSCs) can promote bone formation by differentiating into osteoblasts upon treatment by bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP), such as BMP9. However, the influence of hematoma
A case of essential thrombocythemia (ET) associated with subdural hematoma and postoperative intracerebral hemorrhage was reported. A 57-year-old man had complained headache in the morning. Six hours later he was found unconsciousness and soon he was brought to our hospital. On admission he was
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of the combined application of bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) and low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on human fracture hematoma-derived progenitor cells (HCs).
METHODS
HCs were isolated from 6 patients. The cells were then divided into 4 groups and
OBJECTIVE
To describe a patient with oncogenic osteomalacia whose symptoms were rapidly resolved after surgical removal of an organized hematoma of the hip.
METHODS
A case report is presented, including clinical and laboratory findings. The relevant literature is reviewed, and the current
OBJECTIVE
Elevated alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is considered as a marker of liver function in clinical practice. Furthermore, it has been identified that liver function can contribute to hemorrhagic transformation (HT). However, whether ALP levels play a role in HT after stroke remains an open
BACKGROUND Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by arterial, venous, and small-vessel thrombosis, pregnancy-related morbidity and the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies such as anticardiolipin antibody, and/or anti-beta2-glycoprotein I. In the recent years,
Evaluate morbidity and mortality rates for patients with different levels of hyperparathyroidism (HPT) undergoing parathyroidectomy (PTX), specifically comparing primary hyperparathyroidism to secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism. Assess predictive factors of increased morbidity and
The objectives of the present research on the osteopetrotic mouse are to investigate the factors influencing heterotopic bone development. The osteopetrotic mutant was deficient in macrophage colony stimulating factor and failed to activate functioning monocytes, macrophages, and osteoclasts.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to compare strontium-containing implant (Sr-Ti) surfaces with modified pure Ti (Mod Ti) on the promotion of osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo.
METHODS
The Sr-Ti surfaces were fabricated by hydrothermal treatment. The Mod Ti surfaces were used as a control. These
OBJECTIVE
To explorer the effectiveness of enriched bone marrow stem cells technique for lumbar fusion.
METHODS
With the randomization and control principles, 2 graft materials [Enrichment bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells hybridized with beta-tri calcium phosphate (composite graft group),
A 22-year old male was admitted to Ashikaga Red Cross Hospital because of the progressing abdominal distension in May 1988. The physical examinations disclosed marked hepato-splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy and cachexic state. In the laboratory examinations, anemia, leukocytosis with left shift of
The most common diagnoses of transhepatic cholangiography (THC) among 58 surgical patients were pancreatic adenocarcinoma, choledocholithiasis and cholangiocarcinoma. THC was complicated in 17 of 58 patients or 18 of 68 attempts due to bacteremia or fever in four, subcapsular hematoma in two and
