Validity of Ankle Brachial Index using Palpation Method in Screening for Peripheral Arterial Disease in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients at a Tertiary Hospital in the Philippines

open access: yesJournal of the ASEAN Federation of Endocrine Societies, 2018
Introduction. Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is a significant marker of cardiovascular disease and is prevalent but underdiagnosed. Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) is the recommended screening test for PAD. However, not all clinics have a Doppler ultrasound.

Preoperative Endoscopic Ultrasound Strain Elastography Has Limited Value for Predicting Intraoperative Pancreatic Texture: A Single‐Operator Pilot Study

open access: yesJGH Open
Background/Aims Soft pancreatic texture is a key risk factor for postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). However, preoperative quantification remains difficult. Intraoperative palpation is the current standard for assessing pancreatic hardness; however,

Correlation Between Prolonged Standing And Plantar Fasciitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Plantar fasciitis (PF) is the most common heel pain in adult. It is estimated that it affects as much as 10% of the population over the course of their lifetime. Previous study mention that prolonged standing is one of the risk factor of PF,

Variation in pelvic morphology may prevent the identification of anterior pelvic tilt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Pelvic tilt is often quantified using the angle between the horizontal and a line connecting the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) and the posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS).

Light‐Switched Mesenchymal Stem Cells for In Situ Exosome Amplification in Craniofacial Bone Defect Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Light‐switchable MSCs (MSC‐UCNPs) were constructed by intracellular incorporation of UCNPs. Upon 980 nm irradiation, UCNPs emitted localized ultraviolet light (365 nm), activating the ROS/HEXB/LAMP1 signaling pathway to suppress lysosome–multivesicular body fusion and thereby enhance exosome biogenesis. Embedded within an injectable hydrogel, MSC‐UCNPs

Subacute hematogenous osteomyelitis of the fibula

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2020
A ten years old patient consulted us for lower right limb pain and fever (38.2°C). There were inflammatory signs and palpation pain in relation to the right fibula. Biology was disturbed with white blood cells at 17.470 el/mm³, a sedimentation rate at 50

Bio‐Inspired Mechanical Amplification Block on Implantable Tactile Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
 . ABSTRACT Implantable strain sensors offer opportunities for continuous biomechanical monitoring, but their performance deteriorates severely once embedded in soft tissue due to mechanical shielding that suppresses strain transmission to the sensing layer.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Infectious Enteritis in Adult Ruminants. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Infectious enteritis in adult ruminants is often a result of 1 or more viral, bacterial, or parasitic pathogens. Diagnosis of etiologic agents causing enteritis is important when considering herd implications and zoonotic potential of some etiologies ...
