Injecting drug users who are (un)aware of their HIV serostatus: findings from the multi-center study AjUDE-Brasil II

Cadernos de Saúde Pública, 2006
This study aimed to characterize the profiles of injecting drug users (IDUs) who were unaware of their HIV serostatus, given the importance of this information for prevention strategies, especially in this vulnerable population, key to the HIV/AIDS ...

Safety of MRI Examinations Under Sedation: A Nationwide Survey in Japan

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background MRI is performed under sedation for patients requiring immobility or for those already sedated for clinical management. Although specialist guidelines advocate for anesthesiologist‐led care, non‐anesthesiologist‐led adult sedation is a common practice worldwide. Furthermore, the increase in risk attributable to sedation has not been

Safety and Efficacy of 10 kHz Spinal Cord Stimulation for the Treatment of Refractory Chronic Migraine: A Prospective Long‐Term Open‐Label Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Background Refractory chronic migraine (rCM) is a highly disabling condition for which novel safe and effective treatments are needed. Safety and long‐term efficacy of paresthesia‐free high cervical 10 kHz spinal cord stimulation (SCS) were here prospectively evaluated for the treatment of rCM.

Profile of People Who Inject Drugs in Tehran, Iran

Acta Medica Iranica, 2017
The marked shift in the patterns of drug use in Iran, from opium smoking to injecting drug use, has led to serious health-related outcomes. This study was designed to explore characteristics of people who inject drugs (PWID) in Tehran, Iran. Nine hundred

Auricular Perichondritis in the Cartilage Piercing Era

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The demographics, clinical presentation, treatment, and complications of piercing‐induced auricular perichondritis (P‐IAP) and piercing‐free auricular perichondritis (P‐FAP) were studied. P‐IAP has different demographics, comorbidities, disease course, and microbiology compared to P‐FAP.

Comparison of Paresthesia Mapping With Anatomic Placement in Burst Spinal Cord Stimulation: Long‐Term Results of the Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Double‐Blind, Crossover CRISP Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an effective therapy for chronic intractable pain. Conventional SCS involves electrode placement based on intraoperative paresthesia mapping; however, newer paradigms like burst may allow for anatomic placement of leads.

EVALUATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP FOR INTERVENTION AND EMPOWERMENT (PIE) PROJECT [PDF]

, 2009
HIV/AIDS has become a major public health concern in the United States over the past 35 years and when paired with substance abuse, specifically intravenous drug use, the co-occurrence can have a significant impact on the risk of HIV infection.

Non‐Histone Lactylation: A New Frontier in Cerebral Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

Med Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reperfusion therapy is the mainstay of treatment for ischemic stroke (IS) but frequently exacerbates secondary injury. Following cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, lactate accumulates markedly. Traditionally regarded as a metabolic byproduct, lactate has gained new significance with the discovery of protein lactylation. In addition to experimental

Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields: A Novel Attractive Therapeutic Opportunity for Neuroprotection After Acute Cerebral Ischemia

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,
