The investigator working hypothesis is an impairment of the cerebral venous drainage in IIH compared to the circulation observed in healthy volunteers considered as the reference. The research will focus on adult patients referred to the imaging department for intracranial hypertension assessment.
Pain following urethroplasty with buccal mucosal graft (BMG) harvesting is primarily related to the oral graft harvest site. This pain results in significant increases in narcotic use, patient morbidity, and limits nutritional intake following surgery. During BMG harvesting, lidocaine with
Infrasound is generated within the human body by processes such as respiration and myocardial contraction. External sources include those produced naturally, such as wind and earthquakes, and those that are human-made, such as automobile engines and heavy machinery. Wind turbines are known to emit
Introduction Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESDR) cannot regulate their fluid balance, and are dependent on dialysis for fluid removal. Fluid removal is dependent upon estimation of dry weight. Dry weight is defined as the post-dialysis weight under which a patient suffers (more often than
Breast reconstruction (BR) is commonly requested following mastectomy, and recent measures have been taken to ensure patient access is universal. Transferring autologous tissue from the abdomen using microvascular surgical techniques provides a reliable reconstruction method with high levels of
Background Some maternal blood loss normally occurs at the time of vaginal delivery. The best estimates indicate that a loss of approximately 500 mL is average, with a range of about 250-700 mL.[1,2] Some of this bleeding arises from birth canal lacerations or surgical incisions (i.e., episiotomy),
1.0 Background
While atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia requiring therapy, it is also associated with increased risk of stroke, heart failure, myocardial infarction, dementia, and death. The number of Americans affected with AF is expected to surge to nearly 16
The craniospinal cavity is enclosed by a rigid, non-compressible bone and thus has a constant volume. It is filled with soft tissue (brain, spinal cord and connective tissue), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and circulating blood. Intracranial pressure (ICP) is the pressure of the fluid that bathes the
Methods: Between 1998 and 2006, we enrolled and assigned 105 intractable Meniere's patients to examine plasma vasopressin during remission of vertigo attacks (controls: 30 patients with chronic otitis media). Using the real-time PCR method, we examined V2R mRNA expression in the endolymphatic sac in
Meniere's disease characterized by recurrent attacks of vertigo, fluctuating hearing loss and tinnitus, is a common disease with an incidence of 15-50 per 100,000 population. Some patients with Meniere's disease are strongly prevented from participating in activities of daily life and interaction
Title: Plasma and abscess fluid pharmacokinetics of cefpirome and moxifloxacin single dose and multiple dose administration.
Background: Extensive research in the field of abscess treatment has established a claim for invasive drainage as the most efficient means of resolving suppurative lesions. In
