Angiogenesis in brain contusion

Archives of Forensic Medicine and Criminology, 2015
In the forensic medicine, objective and, if possible, the most accurate determination of the age - the time of the brain contusion, has practical significance. In our previous work, we discussed the importance of the neuron cytoskeleton proteins - neurofilaments, in this area.

Decision‐making and risk‐taking as predictors of health risk behaviors in the Millennium Cohort Study

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Facets of decision‐making and risk‐taking are implicated in adolescent health risk behaviors; however, whether they may lead to adolescent engagement in substance use, gambling, and self‐harm is unknown. Methods We used the Millennium Cohort Study to test whether a task‐based measure of decision‐making and risk‐taking predicts ...

The utility of whole exome sequencing in diagnosing Wilson disease: A case report

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Wilson disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of copper metabolism caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene, resulting in toxic copper accumulation in the body. Diagnosis is typically based on biochemistries, including low serum ceruloplasmin and elevated 24‐h urine copper excretion, with Kayser–Fleischer (KF) rings being a supportive ...

Unleashing the power of visible‐near infrared spectroscopy: predicting Golden Delicious apple enzyme activity

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Enzymatic browning is a significant reaction in fruits that affects their color, appearance, and quality. The quality of apples, as a perishable product, is mainly influenced by the activity of two browning‐related enzymes, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD), during storage.

Desferrioxamine Reduces Oxidative Stress in the Lung Contusion

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
Our hypothesis in this study is that desferrioxamine (DFX) has therapeutic effects on experimental lung contusions in rats. The rats were divided into four groups (n=8): control, control+DFX, contusion, and contusion+DFX. In the control+DFX and contusion+

Patients with brain contusions: predictors of outcome and relationship between radiological and clinical evolution

, 2014
OBJECT: Traumatic parenchymal mass lesions are common sequelae of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). They occur in up to 8.2% of all TBI cases and 13%-35% of severe TBI cases, and they account for up to 20% of surgical intracranial lesions.

Heparin-free extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in a patient with severe pulmonary contusions and bronchial disruption [PDF]

, 2018
Pulmonary contusion complicated with endobronchial hemorrhage is potentially life-threatening, particularly in patients with tracheobronchial tree disruption and severe airway bleeding after blunt trauma, and pose a high mortality risk.

Cardiac contusion

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1975
Cardiac contusions are being recognized with frequency. Among 507 patients with non-penetrating chest injuries, 210 had serial electrocardiograms sufficient to evaluate the heart. Forty-five of these 210 patients (21%) had cardiac contusions. These 45 patients and 3 others who were confirmed to have cardiac contusions at necropsy, comprise the 48 ...

Validated, Reliable, and Novel Skin Frailty Scale for Outpatient Usage and Its Association With Age, Sex, and Non‐Melanoma Skin Cancer: An Observational Study

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Skin frailty (SF) is a common condition affecting adults aged ≥65 years. However, the lack of a validated and reliable visual scale to assess SF severity is a barrier to clinical care and research. In this study, we developed a 9‐parameter Skin Frailty Score (SFS), validated by two board‐certified dermatologists and meeting item and scale level content
