Effectiveness of therapy with iloprost in hand-arm vibration syndrome [PDF]

Occupational Medicine, 2004
To evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of therapy with iloprost in hand-arm vibration syndrome.We describe a clinical case of a male aged 53 years, who was a heavy smoker for 30 years and a mason working with vibrating tools since 1962. He presented with a history of 10 years of attacks of vasospasm, functional impairment and digital ulceration. He was

Considerations for Initiation and Maintenance of Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa for Advanced Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background As Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses, motor fluctuations become increasingly difficult to manage with oral medications. Foslevodopa/foscarbidopa (LDp/CDp), delivered as a continuous 24‐h/day subcutaneous infusion, offers continuous levodopa delivery and stable plasma levodopa levels that reduce motor fluctuations. LDp/CDp has been

Unravelling Evolutionary Dynamics of Female Sexual Cannibalism and Male Reproductive Strategies in Spiders

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexual cannibalism (SC), where one mating partner consumes the other in the context of mating, is especially prevalent among spiders. However, the evolution of SC in spiders is still not fully understood. We review key hypotheses for SC and explore how female‐initiated SC has driven the evolution of various male counter‐adaptations to mitigate its ...

Sudomotor dysfunction in people with type 1 diabetes with and without clinical peripheral neuropathy: A study from Pune, India

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims It is appreciated that current screening tools for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) often fail to detect early disease. Sudomotor (sweat gland) dysfunction, among the earliest manifestations of DPN, can be measured objectively by the SUDOSCAN® device. We compared SUDOSCAN® with conventional validated screening (Michigan
