Value of Sonography in Obstructive Jaundice: Limitations of Bile Duct Caliber as an Index of Obstruction

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1987
The diagnostic value of sonography was assessed in 176 patients with jaundice who had a final diagnosis on the basis of surgery, autopsy, liver biopsy, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and serum tests positive for hepatitis A and B. Obstructive (n = 113) versus nonobstructive jaundice (n = 63) was diagnosed with a sensitivity of 91% and ...

THE INTRARENAL RESISTIVE INDEX AS A PATHOPHYSIOLOGICAL MARKER OF OBSTRUCTIVE UROPATHY

The Journal of Urology, 2001
The intrarenal resistive index is a physiological parameter that indirectly reflects the degree of resistance in the intrarenal vasculature. Resistive index measurements have been advocated for the diagnostic evaluation of several renal pathologies, including obstructive uropathy. However, despite extensive research in this field during the last decade

Assessment of M-mode index of obstruction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

The Scientific Journal of Al-Azhar Medical Faculty, Girls, 2020
Background Diaphragm motion during forced expiration can be analyzed using M-mode ultrasound in an anterior subcostal approach. Maximal expiratory diaphragmatic excursion and forced expiratory diaphragmatic excursion in the first second physiologically mimic forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1 ...

Clinical assessment of adenoidal obstruction based on the nasal obstruction index is no longer useful in children

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2010
ObjectiveTo evaluate the accuracy of clinical assessment of adenoidal obstruction based on a standardized score of the degree of mouth breathing and speech hyponasality (nasal obstruction index [NOI]) in comparison to nasal fiberoptic endoscopy.Study DesignCross‐sectional study with planned data collection.SettingOutpatient clinics of the Departments ...

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and anthropometric obesity indexes

Sleep and Breathing, 2011
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the general body adiposity or regional adiposity was a risk factor in the evolution of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) by examining the relationships between the anthropometric obesity indexes such as waist (WC) and neck circumference index (NC), body mass index (BMI), and OSAS in Turkish ...

Aerosol penetrance: a sensitive index of peripheral airways obstruction

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1976
Early injury of the small airways has been demonstrated in asymptomatic smokers. Ventilatory tests including the maximum midexpiratory flow rate and closing volume have been useful in clinical detection of small airways disease in symptomatic subjects. In the present study, airway “obstruction” was assessed aerodynamically by gamma camera measurements

Development of the Nasal Obstruction Disability Index (NODI)

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology
The aim of this study was to develop a new scale that assesses the subjective severity of nasal obstruction from functional and psychosocial perspectives, independent of etiology.A 27-question prototype scale evaluating nasal obstruction from a functional and psychosocial perspective was created by three expert otolaryngologists. This scale was applied

Renal Resistive Index in Experimental Partial and Complete Ureteral Obstruction

Investigative Radiology, 1992
Recent clinical work suggests that the Doppler resistive index (RI) may be useful in distinguishing obstructive from nonobstructive hydronephrosis. We evaluated the usefulness of the RI in a rabbit model of hydronephrosis.Unilateral partial ureteral obstruction was produced in nine rabbits and complete obstruction in another nine. Three sham operations

[Echocardiography in obstructive hypertrophic myocardiopathy. Proposed index of severity of the obstruction].

Giornale italiano di cardiologia, 1979
An obstruction index to estimate the left ventricle outflow gradient from the echocardiogram in patients with obstructive cardiomyopathies is proposed. It is based on the measurements of the mean distance between septum and anterior mtral valve leaflet, the total time of narrowing and the time of minimal and maximal narrowing.
