appendicitis/알부민

BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to determine relationship of ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) level, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), white blood cell (WBC) count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and mean

The authors studied the optic rotation dispersion of serum albumin in patients suffering from cholecystitis and acute appendicitis. Conforming changes in these forms of pathology characterized by despiralization processes were established. A method of purification of albumin from its modified forms,

BACKGROUND The early prediction of gangrenous/perforated appendicitis is of great importance for the surgical planning, further treatments, and predicting the course of disease. Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) was previously reported as a biomarker of various ischemia-based diseases. Our aim is to

A new 99mTc Microlite leukocyte scan was performed in 38 patients to assess its value in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Autologous leukocytes are labeled with 99mTc by inducing phagocytosis of 99mTc albumin microcolloid particles. The advantages of this test over the standard indium-111 scan

We evaluated the use of technetium 99m albumin colloid white blood cell (TAC-WBC) scan in 33 children with possible appendicitis. Ten children had appendicitis, four of whom had perforated their appendix at the time of surgery. Children with appendicitis differed from children without appendicitis

The authors evaluated the use of technetium-99m albumin colloid white blood cell (TAC-WBC) scan in women with possible appendicitis. One hundred and nine women underwent 110 TAC-WBC scans. One woman had a second scan on a separate admission and was considered two individual patients in the analysis.

BACKGROUND Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) in children is a rare life-threatening syndrome, characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia with renal dysfunction, neurologic symptoms, and fever. TTP is usually caused by deficient activity of von Willebrand factor

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate antioxidant capacity by using a novel automated method in children with acute appendicitis. METHODS Blood samples were obtained from consecutive patients with acute appendicitis (appendicitis group, n = 12) and acute abdominal pain due to non surgical

Diagnosing appendicitis may be difficult. We report the use of a new technetium-99m-albumin colloid white blood cell (TAC-WBC) scan in the evaluation of appendicitis. In a synthesis requiring 75 minutes, autologous neutrophils and macrophages from 40 mL of whole blood were labelled with

Background: Although laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) is considered to be minimally invasive compared with open appendectomy (OA), there are few studies showing this in terms of cytokines and oxidative stress markers.
