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),
The Philadelphia chromosome-negative chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are a group of hematopoietic stem cell malignancies that include polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (PMF). PV and ET can evolve into myelofibrosis, termed post PV/ET MF.
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
Study design and study population The study design was a prospective randomized intervention study in a single center. A randomization process was performed to assign participants to either the aliskiren-treatment group or the negative control group in an open-label design. The duration of the study
Allopurinol is the standard of care for the treatment of gout. In practice, approximately 20% of patients report side effects with allopurinol and 5% discontinue allopurinol due to side effects. Allopurinol can cause gastrointestinal intolerance, such as nausea and diarrhea, which appears to be
The concept of Colonic Adaptation(CA) to regular carbohydrates has been linked mainly to lactose disaccharide(galactose,glucose) and lactulose(galactose, fructose), a manufactured derivative of lactose. CA is achieved in both cases by short term regular consumption of the targeted sugar which is not
This study is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial to compare the efficacy and safety of standard-dose colchicine (STD)(total dose = 4.8 mg) versus low-dose colchicine (total dose 1.8 mg) or placebo for the treatment of acute gout flares. Eight hundred
Antimicrobial resistance has increasingly become a threat to patient safety in health care settings.1 Several studies have identified the inappropriate use of antimicrobials as important risk factor for antimicrobial resistance and the important area of opportunity for increasing patient safety and
