We report a case of biopsy-proven orbital lymphangioma with contiguous spread intracranially in a 14-year-old boy. The patient had a history of congenital orbital lymphangioma and hydrocephalus. Multiple functional and cosmetic periorbital surgeries…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the outcome of recalcitrant deep pelvic infection that required a hemipelvic amputation. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort. SETTING: Tertiary referral centre; Level I trauma. PATIENTS: There were 20 patients with an infection…

The external fixator has been in use for more than a century. Wutzer (1789-1863) used pins and an interconnecting rod-and-clamp system. Parkhill (1897) and Lambotte (1900) used devices that were unilateral with four pins and a bar-clamp system. By…

We previously analyzed human prostate tissue containing stroma near to tumor and from cancer-negative tissues of volunteers. Over 100 candidate gene expression differences were identified and used to develop a classifier that could detect nearby…

BACKGROUND: In the current Tumour-Node-Metastasis (TNM) classification system for renal cell carcinoma (RCC), both renal sinus fat invasion (SFI) and perinephric fat invasion (PFI) are defined as T3a, suggesting that the prognosis should be similar…

The human CYP4F2 gene encodes a LTB4 omega-hydroxylase P450 prominently expressed in liver and kidney that functions to metabolize and inactivate the pro-inflammatory eicosanoids, LTB4 and arachidonic acid. HepG2 cells transfected with CYP4F2 -506/-6…

Fat embolism syndrome (FES) is a rare but potentially fatal postoperative complication from liposuction. We present the case of a 24-year-old woman with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome who developed FES as a complication of lower extremity liposuction.…

This review addresses the complexity of coronary collateral growth from the aspect of redox signaling and introduces the concept of a "redox window" in the context of collateral growth. In essence, the redox window constitutes a range in the redox…

The importance of locomotion to evolutionary fitness has led to extensive study of primate locomotor behavior, morphology and ecology. Most previous research has focused on adult primates, but in the last few decades, increased attention to locomotor…

We have isolated and sequenced a cDNA clone corresponding to human liver cytochrome b5 mRNA. The 760 base pair (bp) sequence contains the complete coding and 3' non-translated regions plus 52 bp of 5' non-translated sequence. The derived amino acid…

We have isolated cDNA clones corresponding to partially processed human liver cytochrome b5 mRNAs. All the clones contained poly(A) sequences, and one clone had a shorter 3' non-translated sequence, indicating the use of an alternative poly(A)…

Medical management of mechanically ventilated patients is challenging to novice providers. Incorrect management of this population may lead to increased morbidity and mortality. A three-day simulation-based boot camp serves to provide one-on-one…

Home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) is recommended in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension (HTN). However, little is known about the use and pattern of HBPM in CKD patients. A cross-sectional study was conducted in an…

It is estimated that 80% of the world population depends on traditional medicine for primary healthcare need. Trianthema portulacastrum Linn. (family: Aizoaceae) is a small perennial weed found in the Americas, Africa, India, and other regions of the…

PURPOSE: We investigate the accuracy of urine volumes obtained by an automated bladder scan in complex neonatal cases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Automated bladder scan determinations of urine volumes were obtained by neonatal intensive care unit nursing…
