Clinical characteristics of immediate allergic adverse reactions to intravenous amoxicillin‒clavulanic acid in conscious dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Amoxicillin‒clavulanic acid (AMC) is one of the most frequently used antibiotics in small animal practice, and reports on adverse reactions are scarce. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics of immediate allergic adverse reactions to intravenous (IV) AMC in conscious dogs. Methods The medical records of a

Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema: a retrospective analysis of clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2016
BackgroundCombined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) is increasingly acknowledged as a separate syndrome with distinct clinical, physiological and radiological characteristics. We sought to identify physiologic and radiographic indices that predict

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

Postmortem submergence interval (PMSI) and human decomposition in anthropogenically constructed aqueous environments (pools, bathtubs, hot tubs, and spas)

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Postmortem decomposition changes of bodies in aquatic environments may offer valuable insights into the postmortem submergence interval (PMSI) for medicolegal death investigators. However, the effects of immersion on the onset of such changes are poorly understood.

Quantitative Dual‐Energy CT Perfusion Versus SPECT/CT V/Q Scintigraphy for Preoperative Lung Function Assessment: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Accurate preoperative physiological assessment is critical for high‐risk patients undergoing lung resection to predict postoperative lung function. This study compared quantitative dual‐energy CT (DECT) perfusion with SPECT/CT for lobar perfusion mapping in an at‐risk oncological cohort.

Loss-of-function mutations in the RNA biogenesis factor NAF1 predispose to pulmonary fibrosis–emphysema

open access: yesScience Translational Medicine, 2016
Mutations in the RNA biogenesis factor NAF1 cause short telomeres and, consequently, age-related lung disease in people. Tidy telomeres make for healthier lungs Telomeres are the protective caps that prevent the ends of chromosomes from unraveling ...

Characteristics of the elderly in high - resolution computed tomography lung densitometry

open access: yes, 2004
To determine the characteristics of the elderly in high - resolution computed tomography (HRCT) lung densitometry, mean lung density (MLD) and relative area of the lungs showing attenuation values less than -950 HU (RA(950)) on HRCT were evaluated in ...

Cardiovascular function in pulmonary emphysema [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic cardiovascular disease, such as coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, and cardiac arrhythmias, have a strong influence on each other, and systemic inflammation has been considered as ...
