Avascular necrosis: A rare complication of steroid therapy for pemphigus

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dermatology, 2008
A patient of pemphigus vulgaris presented with avascular necrosis of the femur after long-term high-dose corticosteroid therapy. Corticosteroids used on a long-term basis can cause avascular necrosis of bone and this has been seen in various diseases ...

Scoring Root Necrosis in Cassava Using Semantic Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Cassava a major food crop in many parts of Africa, has majorly been affected by Cassava Brown Streak Disease (CBSD). The disease affects tuberous roots and presents symptoms that include a yellow/brown, dry, corky necrosis within the starch-bearing tissues.

Existence result and free boundary limit of a tumor growth model with necrotic core [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We analyze a system of cross-diffusion equations that models the growth of an avascular-tumor spheroid. The model incorporates two nonlinear diffusion effects, degeneracy type and super diffusion. We prove the global existence of weak solutions and justify the convergence towards the free boundary problem of the Hele-Shaw type when the pressure gets ...

Rate-Equation Modelling and Ensemble Approach to Extraction of Parameters for Viral Infection-Induced Cell Apoptosis and Necrosis [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Chem. Phys. 145 (9), Article 094103, 8 pages (2016), 2016
We develop a theoretical approach that uses physiochemical kinetics modelling to describe cell population dynamics upon progression of viral infection in cell culture, which results in cell apoptosis (programmed cell death) and necrosis (direct cell death).

A multiphase Cahn-Hilliard-Darcy model for tumour growth with necrosis [PDF]

open access: yesMath. Models Methods Appl. Sci. 28 (2018) 525--577, 2017
We derive a Cahn-Hilliard-Darcy model to describe multiphase tumour growth taking interactions with multiple chemical species into account as well as the simultaneous occurrence of proliferating, quiescent and necrotic regions. Via a coupling of the Cahn-Hilliard-Darcy equations to a system of reaction-diffusion equations a multitude of phenomena such ...

Mean distraction force applied in tension‐controlled ligament‐balanced total knee arthroplasty: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Proper tension of the collateral ligaments is the key to success in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The study aimed to identify the distraction force for the medial and lateral femorotibial compartments in tension‐controlled ligament‐balanced TKA at 0° and 90° of knee flexion. Methods A literature search was conducted in PubMed up to 31

Anemia and retinopathy of prematurity: A narrative review

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Anemia in infants who are at greatest risk of developing severe retinopathy of prematurity is almost universal. There is plausible evidence in the literature correlating anemia with severe ROP. However, the relationship is complex, and further study is needed to better understand the potential molecular mechanisms for anemia‐associated ROP.

The Comparison Of Results For The Bone Grafting In Treatment Of Scaphoid Nonunion With And Without Avascular Necrosis

open access: yesMedical Journal of The Islamic Republic of Iran, 2011
Background: The varieties of treatment methods for the scaphoid nonunion have always been a discussable issue for orthopaedic surgeons. The current study, considered to be review for treatment results of the patients who sustained the scaphoid nonunion ...

Malpractice and Avascular Necrosis: Legal Outcomes

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1999
Every physician, but particularly specialists, have reason to be concerned about medical legal issues. Avascular necrosis has been established as a possible serious complication of steroid treatment in inflammatory bowel disease.

Liposome‐Based Interventions in Knee Osteoarthritis

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Liposomes offer new opportunities for the management of knee osteoarthritis (OA). This review examines the last decade's advances, focusing on intra‐articularly (IA) administered liposomes and liposome‐based systems as pharmaceutical carriers and lubricants, while discussing their in vivo efficacy. Functionalized liposomes (with polymers, peptides etc.)
