Myofibroblast phenotypes expression in experimental renal scarring.
BACKGROUND Myofibroblasts have been implicated in the pathogenesis of wound healing and tissue fibrosis. A role has also been put forward for these cells in the development of experimental and clinical renal scarring. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We examined the expression of myofibroblast phenotypes by immunohistochemistry, relying on an avidin-biotin-peroxidase method, during the course of renal sc...
متن کاملHistological Effect of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor on Chronic Vocal Fold Scarring in a Rat Model.
OBJECTIVES Vocal fold scarring is one of the most challenging laryngeal disorders to treat and there are currently no consistently effective treatments available. Our previous studies have shown the therapeutic potential of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) for vocal fold scarring. However, the histological effects of bFGF on scarred vocal fold have not been elucidated. The aim of this stud...
متن کاملMonitoring vocal fold abduction through vocal fold contact area.
A number of commercial devices for measuring the transverse electrical conductance of the thyroid cartilage produce waveforms that can be useful for monitoring movements within the larynx during voice production, especially movements that are closely related to the time-variation of the contact between the vocal folds as they vibrate. This paper compares the various approaches that can be used ...
متن کاملPaediatric vocal fold paralysis.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Vocal fold paralysis (VFP) is a relatively common cause of stridor and dysphonia in the paediatric population. This report summarises our experience with VFP in the paediatric age group. METHODS All patients presenting with vocal fold paralysis over a 12-month period were included. Medical charts were revised retrospectively. The diagnosis was performed by flexible...
متن کاملThe Effects of Size and Type of Vocal Fold Polyp on Some Acoustic Voice Parameters
Background: Vocal abuse and misuse would result in vocal fold polyp. Certain features define the extent of vocal folds polyp effects on voice acoustic parameters. The present study aimed to define the effects of polyp size on acoustic voice parameters, and compare these parameters in hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic polyps.Methods: In the present retrospective study, 28 individuals with hemorrha...
