چکیده
BaCkground: The distal placement of Vascularized lymph node is an effective method in the treatment of Breast Cancer Related Lymphedema. Despite the majority of patients’ concerns are functional, some aesthetic concerns may be raised due to placement of the flap in an exposed area. Our objective is to compare the functional improvement of the lymphedematous limb after the placement of the Vascularized Lymph Node in the dorsal and volar Wrist aiming to place it in a less visible area.

Abstract: Analysis of Thumb and First Webspace Injuries Due to Fireworks
INTRODUCTION: Hand infections confer significant functional morbidity due to prolonged recovery, loss of time at work, and diminished ability with activities of daily living. Prior investigations have focused exclusively on patients who were operated on. Delineating the locoregional microbiology of hand infections, including patients drained non-operatively who may have a different pathologic m...
متن کاملDETECTION OF HAEMOPHILUS INFLUENZAE TYPE B IN CEREBROSPINAL FLUID OF SUSPECTED CHILDREN WITH MENINGITIS BYPCR
ABSTRACT Background: A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay with primers from "hpd" gene was compared with culture for the detection of Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) in CSF samples from children suspected of meningitis. Methods: 300 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from suspected meningitis cases were studied by culture (Leventhal & Chocolate Agar) and PCR. Results: The latter...
متن کاملEvaluation of a Viscoelastic Ankle-Foot Prosthesis at Slow and Normal Walking Speeds on an Able-Bodied Subject
Objectives: This paper describes further improvement and preliminarily evaluation of a novel viscoelastic ankle-foot prosthesis prototype. The objective was to control the ankle hysteresis at slow and normal walking speeds. Methods: Inspired by the ankle biomechanics, in which the hysteresis differs based on the gait speeds, a manually damping control mechanism imbedded in the prosthesis for...
متن کاملReovirus oncolysis: a brief insight on molecular mechanism and immunological aspect
Abstract : Reovirus (respiratory enteric orphan virus), a naturally occurring benign human pathogen, has an inherent ability to target transformed and cancerous cells and cause their lysis, while leaving non-transformed cells relatively unaffected. The efficiency of this innate oncolytic activity of reovirus correlates with expression of the ras oncogene. Cells expressing ac...
