Transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) is one of the most common non-invasive brain stimulation techniques but applications in pediatric populations are relatively unexplored. tDCS applies a weak electric current over the scalp to modulate cortical excitability. Anodal stimulation excites

Study Methods: Study Population A 60 adult (aged >18 years) patients were included with a diagnosis of acute thromboembolic ischemic stroke within 48 hours after onset, according to clinical picture and imaging findings by brain computed tomography (CT) without evidence of hemorrhage, upon admission

1. Purpose of the study The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the acute physiological and metabolic changes in severe burns injury. Unless clinicians understand the physiological effect in burns patients, clinicians are unable to develop new therapeutic interventions to halt

The paranasal sinuses are within the bones of the face and head. Six paired sinuses are present in humans, and although their exact function is a topic for debate, they appear to play several roles ranging from cushioning the brain during trauma to increasing resonance of the voice and releasing

Epilepsy and cognitive dysfunction Recent investigations suggest that more than 60% of patients with epilepsy suffer cognitive impairment, such as memory, attentional and executive dysfunction (Elger et al., 2004, Lin et al., 2012). The severity and profile of cognitive impairment are heterogeneous

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a powerful technique to modulate brain activity: TDCS is based on the application of a weak direct current to the scalp that flows between two relatively large electrodes—anode and cathode. During tDCS, low amplitude (1-2 mA), constant currents are

Pain from burns is a severe form of acute pain that requires aggressive use of opioids. Even with the implementation of multiple modalities for analgesia, pain from skin debridements and grafting procedures remains a challenge to control. Local anesthetics have been used for pain relief in burn

1. Overview This multi-center, Phase II trial is designed to determine if Tranexamic Acid (TXA) initiated in the prehospital setting improves long-term neurologic outcome compared to placebo in patients with moderate to severe TBI who are not in shock. This study protocol will be conducted as part

Dehydration, or the loss of body water, is a common health problem during military operations, athletic events and illness, particularly in children and the elderly. Warfighters frequently become dehydrated when training or fighting in hot and mountainous environments because heat and high altitude

The study was approved by the ethic committee of Songklanagarind Hospital in Songkhla, Thailand, and was designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. All patients gave their informed consent after receiving written information of the study. Orthopedic patients were invited to

Rhabdomyolysis may be defined as a clinical or biochemical syndrome which may result from a large variety of diseases, trauma, or toxic insults to skeletal muscle. The damage to the integrity of the sarcolemma of skeletal muscle leads to the release of potentially toxic muscle cell components into

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS 1. SPECIFIC AIM 1: To assess the efficacy of sertraline in preventing posttraumatic stress disorder in children aged 6-20 after a burn, injury or reconstructive surgery following a burn injury. 2. SPECIFIC AIM 2: To assess the efficacy of sertraline in preventing
