Experience in using povidone-iodine to treat superficial and full-thickness burns
Thermal injuries are now ranked number one among injuries, and incidence of injury-related complications, especially infectious and purulent, does not decrease in surgical practice, despite the modern methods for treatment and prevention.

HEME OXYGENASE-1 UPREGULATED BY MELATONIN: POTENTIAL PROTECTION AGAINST BURN-INDUCED OXIDATIVE GASTRIC MUCOSAL INJURY. [PDF]
Melatonin is indoleamine hormone derived from L-tryptophan. Due to its lipophilic nature, it is accessible to every cell. Melatonin has immunomodulatory and antioxidant activities thus protecting tissue injury.

Diathermy-Induced Injury May Affect Detection of Occult Tubal Lesions at Risk-Reducing Salpingo-Oophorectomy [PDF]
Background: Electrosurgery-induced tubal thermal injury obscures cellular detail and hampers histomorphological assessment for occult pathology. Objective: The objectives of this study were to report on diathermy-related thermal injuries to the fallopian

Effect of a poloxamer 407-based thermosensitive gel on minimization of thermal injury to diaphragm during microwave ablation of the liver. [PDF]
AIM: To assess the insulating effect of a poloxamer 407 (P407)-based gel during microwave ablation of liver adjacent to the diaphragm. METHODS: We prepared serial dilutions of P407, and 22.5% (w/w) concentration was identified as suitable for ablation ...

A Laser-Guided Spinal Cord Displacement Injury in Adult Mice [PDF]
Mouse models are unique for studying molecular mechanisms of neurotrauma because of the availability of various genetic modified mouse lines. For spinal cord injury (SCI) research, producing an accurate injury is essential, but it is challenging because ...
