1. Introduction: Global cerebral ischaemic-reperfusion brain injury following cardiac arrest (CA) can lead to intracranial hypertension and, occasionally, acute brain swelling. Even small increases in brain volume due to edema can result in harmful increases in intracranial pressure due to the
The principal investigator hypothesize that CDH newborns have disturbed cardiac performance and increased pulmonary pressures during neonatal life and at different pediatric ages. The principal investigator also postulate that those with decreased cardiac performance by STE and/or with PH have
Primary brain tumors in adults are less common than metastatic tumors. The most frequent are glioblastoma multiforme, metastases, anaplastic astrocytoma, meningioma, pituitary tumors and vestibular schwannoma. 70% of the tumors in adults are supratentorial. The most infratentorial tumors are
This will be a double-blind, 3-arm, randomized controlled trial with a treatment 1: treatment 2: control allocation ratio of 1:1:1. Primary outcomes of interest are opioid requirements and pain scores over initial 72 hours of the postoperative period. Opioid requirements will be assessed by
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) consists of blood extravasation into the space between arachnoid and pia mater. Bleeding is a consequence of cerebral aneurysm rupture in most cases. It particularly affects females with an average age of 55 years. Despite incidence being only 9 cases out of 1000 people
The majority of human cohort investigations of neurotoxicity have studied general anesthesia for surgery. However, many animal studies have involved exposure to agents for significantly longer than the average duration of a general anesthetic in infants, some even for 24 hours (8).This is closer in
INTRODUCTION:
Laparoscopic approach to uncomplicated ventral hernia repair as compared to open repair has advantages of less post operative pain, less rates of wound infection , , early recovery, shortened hospital stay and less overall cost of treatment , , . Patient satisfaction after laparoscopic
Fluid therapy is aimed to compensate for fasting which is required for surgery, to meet the ongoing fluid losses and to maintain electrolyte balance during surgery. Fluid deficit of a healthy child who is not fed parenterally may be estimated by multiplying hourly maintenance requirement for fluid
Background The majority of newborn infants successfully make the transition from fetal to neonatal life without any help. However, an estimated 10% of newborns need help to establish effective ventilation, which remains the most critical step of neonatal resuscitation. Fortunately, the need for
The purpose of this study is to combine molecular and behavioral methods in an experimental conceptualization approach to map the effects of trigeminal (PULSED orocutaneous) somatosensory stimulation on salivary gene expression in the context of the acquisition of an exquisitely complex oromotor
Background
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a severe disease affecting approximately 400 patients per year in Switzerland. Death and severe disability after spontaneous SAH are related to the initial severity of the bleeding. The scale which is most often used and recommended to grade the

Japanese encephalitis (JE) is the most important epidemic encephalitis worldwide, causing approximately 35-50,000 cases and 10-15,000 deaths annually. Half of the survivors have severe neuropsychiatric sequelae, posing a large socio-economic burden on communities that can ill afford it. JE virus
Research Objectives:
The primary objective is to apply an effective medical weight loss treatment to post bariatric surgery patients to enhance their weight loss through stimulation of thermogenesis and lipolysis and retention of lean body mass. This treatment using ephedrine with phosphodiesterase
