A new Protector in Cerebral Angiography

Hypertonicity in Children with Cerebral Palsy: A New Perspective

Objectives: Hypertonicity is a major problem in children with cerebral palsy that has not been explained effectively to address clinical decision making. Therefore, this article aims to provide a theoretical framework about hypertonicity for clinicians, rehabilitation and medical practitioners to be used in their practice. Methods: Literature was reviewed to examine the new perspectives towa...

Cerebral angiography in brainstem revascularization.

Surgical management of patients with vertebrobasilar insufficiency has been developed within the past decade. Cerebral angiography plays a crucial role in identifying potential surgical candidates and in directing the surgical approach. Fifty-two patients underwent brainstem revascularization procedures at Henry Ford Hospital between November 1979 and August 1985. Twelve occipital artery to ant...

Cerebral angiography in neurosurgical emergencies.

Frederine, a new and promising protector against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity.

The flavonoid 7-monohydroxyethylrutoside (monoHER) can protect against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. A drawback of monoHER therapy would be the relatively high dose needed to obtain complete protection (500 mg/kg in mice). Therefore, we synthesized a series of new compounds with improved antioxidant properties. After characterization of antioxidant activity, cardioprotection in vitro, and...

The Pocket Protector: A New Breast Implant Device

Introduction: Although strides have been made to improve breast augmentation surgery, they have focused on the use of single implant devices, necessitating adjustments to the type of operation performed and implants used. And although some breast types obtain excellent results, many others are less than optimal. By developing a thin synthetic expanded polytetrafluoroethylene device, the Pocket ...
