BACKGROUND Although diaphragm paresis or paralysis is fairly common following cardiac procedures; it is a less common complication following liver transplantation. Unilateral diaphragm paresis, usually right sided, has been described following liver transplantation in adults and has been rarely described in children. PURPOSE Diaphragmatic injury following LT is often unrecognized and is typic...

The anatomic features of achondroplastic patients pose many challenges for anesthesiologists. The achondroplastic parturient has a high likelihood of delivery by cesarean section due to cephalopelvic disproportion. Hence, anesthesiologist involvement is crucial. It is not uncommon for these patients to have a narrow spinal canal and areas of spinal stenosis. These features might prove a challen...

The association between blood calcium levels and electrocardiographic variables was compared in 137 normal parturient and 36 peripartum recumbent Holstein cows to determine whether hypocalcemia in peripartum dairy cows can be rapidly diagnosed using electrocardiograph. Inverse of STc (ST peak interval/SS interval(0.5)) and blood ionized calcium or serum calcium concentrations were strongly corr...

The present study was conducted with an aim to access the incidence of peri-parturient reproductive disorders and to determine the seasonal calving pattern in cross bred cows of Jammu region. A total of 2638 calving records of cross bred dairy cows between 2010 – 2016 were screened retrospectively for peri-parturient reproductive disorders. The most common reproductive problems recorded in the ...

Care of an acutely ill parturient is particularly difficult when we have to balance the needs of both mother and the fetus to survive. The literature suggests there should be emphasis on stabilising the mother's condition. In dealing with metabolic acidosis, however, we believe delivering the baby early might not only relieve the threat of the acidosis on the mother, it may be the only way to d...

UNLABELLED We report the case of a pregnant woman presenting with Guillain-Barré syndrome in which her neurologic status worsened immediately after delivery under epidural analgesia. We believe that the anesthetic technique may have played a role in the disease progression. Because of this potential association, the risks of worsening neurologic status after regional anesthesia and alternative ...

Background: Desert plants cannot provide all the animals’ requirements for calcium and mineral deficiency in camels. This condition is mostly aggravated dry seasons. The present study investigates hypocalcemia pre-parturient post-parturient Methods: In a camel herd, 25 out of 96 pregnant animals showed clinical signs within week after parturition. Two camels had abortions, 9 that gave birth die...

A descriptive epidemiological study was carried out for understanding the ranking order and temporal distribution of parturient haemoglobinuria in buffalo. For this data recorded from each household eight randomly selected villages. Parturient ranked as number one disease among all observed cases with respect to mortality (1.03%) proportional (29.41%) rate appeared 4thand 3rdposition incidence ...

The movement of the centre of mass in the vertical and lateral directions during gait in children with myelomeningocele was analyzed. The children were classified into five groups depending on the successive paresis of lower limb muscle groups and compared to a control group. In the groups with dorsi- and plantarflexor weakness, the excursions increased and an anterior trend in the centre of ma...

Segmental zoster paresis is a rare complication of herpes zoster, characterized by focal motor weakness that does not always present simultaneously with skin lesions. Zoster paresis can be easily confused with other neuromuscular or spinal diseases. This case report describes the case of a 72-year-old woman with herpes zoster and cervical spinal stenosis at the same spinal level, where it was d...
