Efectividad del bloqueo retrolaminar en instrumentación de columna mínimamente invasiva.

Antecedentes: La anestesia regional puede reducir el riesgo de dolor agudo post operatorio después de una instrumentación de columna, una afección frecuente y debilitante. Comparamos la anestesia convencional con un bloqueo retrolaminar para la prevención del dolor agudo posoperatorio. Metodología: Ensayo Clínico aleatorizado, No cegado.

Impact of dapagloflozin administration in treatment of proteinuria in patients with nephrotic syndrome

Background and Aims: Nephrotic syndrome addressed as one of the most common causes of inherited chronic kidney disease. Where, protein is excessively filtered into the urine.Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in nephrotic patients on immunosuppression are underexplored.This research aimed to investigate the impacts of dapagloflozin in treatment of proteinuria in patients with nephrotic syndrome. Material and methods: A prospective clinical trial involving fifty-six adult patients, without a diagnosis of diabetes, with persistent proteinuria.

Assessment of fusion rate with transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion in degenerative lumbar spine diseases

Background: It is theoretically presumed that TLIF will provide the same advantages as circumferential fusion, but with a higher level of safety than other inter body fusion methods, as it does not involve direct traction on the spine. TLIF technology preserves the interspinal ligament and supraspinal ligament in terms of spinal integrity. Goal and objectives: We aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes, complications, and advantages of transforaminal lumbar inter body fusion in degenerative lumbar spine diseases.

Healthcare inequities in pediatric cardiology: a case of tga and tof in low-income families

Background: Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are the most common birth defects globally. CHD often requires specialized care for survival. However, healthcare inequities in pediatric cardiology limit access to prompt diagnostic and holistic therapeutic interventions in low-income families. Case Presentation: We explore two critical CHDs, tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and transposition of great arteries (TGA), highlighting the intersection of financial limitations, inadequate infrastructure, and suboptimal care.

Neurobiology notes, from the interaction of material bodies to the origin of neural networks, from neural networks to the universality of knowledge

This manuscript raises numerous questions regarding the extraordinary structural and functional complexity of neural networks, and aims to be a starting point for orienting us toward possible answers. Starting from the fundamental premise that matter is the result of the interaction between the particles that form it, I extend this principle to the neural networks that have specialized, over the course of evolution, in increasingly refined and effective interaction/communication activities.

Impact of aki in patients with cirrhotic liver and received hcv treatment

Background and Aims: Egypt had controlled liver cirrhosis who received HCV vaccine in line to modulate its impact among nephrotic patients. Current clinical trial aim to investigate acute kidney injury (AKI) impact among liver cirrhosis individuals who received HCV treatment. Material and methods: A prospective, multi-center clinical trial, on 50 liver cirrhosis patients who eligible to receive HCV treatment.

Bone loss patterns in periodontitis-an overview

Periodontal disease is an inflammatory condition that affects the supporting structures of the teeth which eventually lead to bone loss, tooth mobility and tooth loss if left untreated.Bone loss in periodontal disease is a hall mark and the patterns of bone loss is based on the type of periodontal destruction present.A number of factors contribute to bone loss in periodontitis like bacterial derived factors, antigens that stimulate a local inflammatory response and activation of innate immune system.The present review gives us an overview of classification of bone defects

A woman obtains relief from excruciating hip joint pain attributable to multidisciplinary teamwork and adherence to physiotherapeutic interventions: a single case study of total hip replacement

Hip replacement aims to alleviate hip pain due to the damaged joint and ensure smooth mobility to the extent possible. Physiotherapeutic support after the hip replacement helps inensuring proper rehabilitation and optimum quality of life. This was amply demonstrated in a single case of avascular necrosis of the femoral head in a 31-year-oldwoman. She had been suffering from pain and stiffness in the right hip joint for the last 20 years. She was referredtoa tertiary care hospital where the orthopedic surgeon conducted the hip replacement surgery.

Perception & awareness of special care dentistry among dental undergraduates of india: a cross- sectional study

Aim: This study provides critical insights into the perception and awareness of Special Care Dentistry (SCD) among dental undergraduate students in India. Materials & Methodology: This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the awareness and perceptions of Special Care Dentistry (SCD) among dental undergraduate students in India. A total of 400 students from various dental colleges participated in the study, which was conducted by the Department of Public Health Dentistry at SGT University, Gurugram.

Evaluation of functional and aesthetic outcomes of glabrous skin resurfacing in cases of palmodigitovolar defects

Soft tissue injuries of hand and palm are common occurrence caused by trauma, infection, burns and various medical procedures. The criteria for selection of appropriate flap for volar defects is based on ability of the flap to provide glabrous skin, adequacy of length, adequate sensitivity and ability to allow free movement of joints. In the present study we intend to describe our experience of resurfacing of palmodigitovolar defects with glabrous skin. Study population comprised of 32 patients with palmodigitovolar defects from various causes.
