Noninvasive methods of detecting increased intracranial pressure

Alexandros G. SfakianakisστοOtoRhinoLaryngology - Alexandros G. SfakianakisΠριν από 11 δευτερόλεπτα

Noninvasive methods of detecting increased intracranial pressure: AbstractThe detection of elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) is of paramount importance in the diagnosis and management of a number of neurologic pathologies. The current gold standard is the use of intraventricular or intraparenchymal catheters; however, this is invasive, expensive, and requires anesthesia. On the other hand, diagnosing intracranial hypertension based on clinical symptoms such as headaches, vomiting, and visual changes lacks sensitivity. As such, there exists a need for a noninvasive yet accurate a... περισσότερα »

Religions, Vol. 7, Pages 85: Towards an Existential Archeology of Capitalist Spirituality

Αλέξανδρος ΣφακιανάκηςστοMedicine by Alexandros G.SfakianakisΠριν από 11 δευτερόλεπτα

Throughout his career, Michel Foucault sustained a trenchant critique of Jean-Paul Sartre, whom he accused of arguing that the subject "dispenses (all) significations". In contrast to existentialism's interests in subjective consciousness, Foucault pursues an archaeological method which he later develops into a genealogical approach to discourse that emphasizes the institutional practices and forms of knowledge/power that undergird historical epistemes. Taking contemporary networked Capitalism, the discourse of "workplace spirituality", and the life history of one management refor... περισσότερα »

J reconstr Microsurg DOI: 10.1055/s-0036-1584528 Background Close monitoring is crucial following successful flap surgery. Ideally, all patients undergoing microvascular reconstruction should be evaluated in a dedicated unit with specialized nurses; however, this is not always possible and there is often a varied skill mix of nursing staff. The purpose of this study was to identify deficiencies in microsurgical education among nursing staff in an effort to target future educational efforts.

Reformed smokers have survival benefits after head and neck cancer

Alexandros G. SfakianakisστοOtoRhinoLaryngology Now by Alexandros G. SfakianakisΠριν από 23 δευτερόλεπτα

Smoking tobacco is the main risk factor for head and neck cancer, is proportional to the number of pack years (number of packs smoked/day x number of years of smoking), and is reduced when the patient stops smoking. Current molecular evidence has suggested that tobacco-related cancers could be clinically more aggressive than cancers in non-smokers, particularly in the head and neck. However, clinical studies have not uniformly reproduced the relation between survival and tobacco, possibly because they ignore the health benefit that reformed smokers obtain during the period between ... περισσότερα »

We measured the rise in the intraosseous temperature caused by freehand drilling or drilling through a surgical guide, by comparing different temperatures of irrigation fluid (10°C, 15°C, and 20°C), for every step of the drilling sequence (diameters 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, and 3.5mm) and using a constant drilling speed of 1200rpm. The axial load was controlled at 2.0kg. Bovine ribs were used as test models. In the guided group we used 3-dimensional printed surgical guides and temperature was measured with a thermocouple. http://ift.tt/297piu1

Association of COL1A1 polymorphism with subchondral bone degeneration of the temporomandibular joint

Alexandros G. SfakianakisστοOtoRhinoLaryngology Now by Alexandros G. SfakianakisΠριν από 23 δευτερόλεπτα

The G/T polymorphism of the COL1A1 gene exhibits a clinically significant influence on bone remodelling, leading to a predisposition to degenerative diseases. The enhancement of bone turnover and further loss of bone mass are thought to be the primary pathological changes in the early degenerative course of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ OA), with the appearance of low-density lesions. Thus, it was hypothesized that this polymorphism may also affect this type of bone lesion in TMJ OA. http://ift.tt/2990a4S

Abstract Background About half of adult irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients report symptoms with eating and disordered eating habits. However, little is known about eating in adolescent IBS patients, a common age at which eating disorders develop. The aim of the study was to investigate if adolescents with IBS are more likely than healthy controls (HCs) to experience eating-associated symptoms (EAS), report disordered eating patterns, and show differences in diet composition. Methods A total of 99 adolescents between 15 and 21 years-of-age participated (*n* = 48 IBS; *n* = 5... περισσότερα »

Gastrointestinal dysfunction and enteric neurotoxicity following treatment with anticancer chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil

Abstract Background The use of the anticancer chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is often limited by nausea, vomiting, constipation, and diarrhea; these side-effects persist long after treatment. The effects of 5-FU on enteric neurons have not been studied and may provide insight into the mechanisms underlying 5-FU-induced gastrointestinal dysfunction. Methods Balb/c mice received intraperitoneal injections of […]
