Significant data exist to support a secondary effect on upper-extremity function in patients with upper-extremity spasticity.

BACKGROUND Although the use of temporary shunts in proximal extremity amputations has been reported, no study has described the use of temporary shunts in distal extremity amputations that require vein grafting. Moreover, the total volume of blood loss when temporary shunts are used has not been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the applicability of a temporary shunt for distal...

Background: With the growing population of the elderly, the prevalence of disabilities and chronic diseases will also likely increase. Muscle weakness leads to low amounts of physical activity in elderly diabetic patients and makes them susceptible to falls. In this study, we aimed to compare the muscle strength between diabetic and non-diabetic elderly individuals. Methods: The present study ...

Lower extremity ischemia is an important source of morbidity with femoral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support. We describe our experience with the use of a side-arm graft sewn to the femoral artery that facilitates adequate extracorporeal membrane oxygenation flow while preventing lower extremity ischemia.
