Blood lactate threshold and type II fibre predominance in patients with exertional heatstroke.

Blood lactate threshold and type II fibre predominance in patients with exertional heatstroke.

OBJECTIVES Severe damage to skeletal muscle is usually seen in patients with exertional heatstroke. Thirty seven young military recruits with exertional heatstroke in Taiwan from 1992 to 1995 were studied to evaluate changes in muscle pathology and blood lactate with exercise. METHODS A biopsy sample of the vastus lateralis was taken from recruits within 10 days of the initial presentation. R...

The Comparison of Tooth Pulp Electrical Threshold in Patients with Type II Uncontrolled Diabetes and Healthy Subject

Objective: Diabetic patients suffer from different types of complications associated with peripheral nerves. A clear manifestation of these complications is found in the mouth where neuropathies commonly occur. The measurement of electrical stimulation threshold of teeth signifies premature involvement of peripheral nerves in the teeth. The aim of present study is to compare pulp tester respons...

Elevated Troponin and Non-exertional Heatstroke: a Case Report

Cold water immersion: the gold standard for exertional heatstroke treatment.

The key to maximize the chances of surviving exertional heatstroke is rapidly decreasing the elevated core body temperature. Many methods exist to cool the body, but current evidence strongly supports the use of cold water. Preferably, the athlete should be immersed in cold water. If lack of equipment or staff prevents immersion, a continual dousing with cold water provides an effective cooling...
