Increasing knowledge about the rare disease systemic sclerosis and improved diagnostic methods in the course of recent decades has led to the possibility of diagnosing systemic sclerosis at earlier disease stages. However, earlier diagnosis has an impact on routine clinical care of affected
We determined the effect of topically applied ibuprofen on formation of second-degree burn edema and prostanoid production, a possible causative factor. Six adult sheep were given second-degree burns on both flanks with water at 80 degrees C while they were under general anesthesia. Lymph (QL),
Massive ovarian edema is a rare tumor-like condition found predominantly in young women. Patients usually present with abdominal pain and/or abdominal mass. Pre-operative diagnosis is often difficult. Awareness of this rare and benign lesion in young women may allow conservative management and
OBJECTIVE
The pathophysiology and clinical significance of perihematomal edema (PHE), a cause of secondary neuronal injury after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), is poorly understood. A leading theory proposes that early PHE results from activation of the clotting cascade. We sought to test this
Meningococcal disease frequently presents neurologic sequels via vascular, metabolic, or inflammatory processes. Understanding the underlying pathogenic mechanisms may influence both treatment and outcome. We present a 2-year-old child affected by Neisseria meningitidis sepsis, who on the second day
Standard burns were sequentially produced on the backs of Sprague-Dawley rats at 0, 1, 2, and 2 1/2 hr, followed by the IV injection of Evans blue dye. All animals were killed at 3 hr, and burns evaluated by wet/dry weight ratios, and Evans blue extravasation scored 1-4 by two observers. Five groups
Fingolimod, a disease-modifying sphingosine 1‑phosphate receptor modulator, which was approved in Germany in 2011, decreases the relapse rate and reduces neuroinflammation in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. Macular edema is a well-known ocular side effect of fingolimod therapy.
The objective of this study was to establish the baseline retinal hemodynamic characteristics of stratified groups of diabetic patients at increasing risk for the development of diabetic macular edema (DME). Group 1 had 50 control subjects, group 2 had 56 diabetic patients without clinically visible
