Acute gastric dilatation causing respiratory distress
A 64-year-old man was referred to the on-call surgical team from the High Dependency Unit with acute abdominal distension. He had undergone elective abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair two days previously. The patient had not vomited, was diaphoretic, and had difficulty speaking due to discomfort and respiratory distress. He was tachypnoeic with a respiratory rate of 24/min, tachycardic at 1...
متن کاملText Mining for Biomedicine
Text mining provides the automated means to manage information overload and overlook. By adding meaning to text, text mining techniques produce a much more structured analysis of textual knowledge than do simple word searches, and can provide powerful tools for knowledge discovery in biomedicine. In this chapter, the author focus on the text mining services for biomedicine offered by the United...
متن کاملNanoparticle patterning for biomedicine
Nanoparticles are being used for construction of complex and higher-order functional structures and metamaterials with applications in nanophotonics, information storage and biomedicine, to name a few. These innovations are briefly discussed within the context of future diagnostic and nanomedicine platform technologies and their possible self-assembly in vivo.
متن کاملNanocarbon surfaces for biomedicine
The distinctive physicochemical, mechanical and electrical properties of carbon nanostructures are currently gaining the interest of researchers working in bioengineering and biomedical fields. Carbon nanotubes, carbon dendrimers, graphenic platelets and nanodiamonds are deeply studied aiming at their application in several areas of biology and medicine. Here we provide a summary of the carbo...
متن کاملInfluence of obestatin on the gastric longitudinal smooth muscle from mice: mechanical and electrophysiological studies.
Obestatin is a hormone released from the stomach deriving from the same peptide precursor as ghrelin. It is known to act as an anorectic hormone decreasing food intake, but contrasting results have been reported about the effects of obestatin on gastrointestinal motility. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether this peptide may act on the gastric longitudinal smooth muscle by us...
