acquaintance with the different anatomical variations of the arterial supply of the gallbladder is of great importance in hepatobiliary surgical procedures. a rare variation of the hepatobiliary arterial system was found during anatomical dissection of a female iranian cadaver. two cystic arteries were present, the first arising directly from the right hepatic artery and the second from the gas...

conclusion in cases with critical atherosclerotic disease of anterior tibial artery, pta-based biphasic or triphasic retrograde collateral flow prevents ischemia, whereas monophasic support or no retrograde flow remains incapable. results in the patient group, 31 lower limb arteries, of total of 17 cases, were included. after compression maneuver, dpa in 11 cases (six right, five left) showed r...

objective(s): the present study was aimed to investigate the influence of thoracic epidural blockade on hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension in rats. materials and methods: forty eight wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 equal groups, named normoxia hypoxia hypoxia/ ropivacaine and hypoxia/saline. animals were placed in a hypoxia chamber and instrumented with epidural catheters at the th...

background:  patients undergoing cemented hip hemiarthroplasty may develop bone cement implantation syndrome (bcis) which is a leading cause of intraoperative complications. the purpose of this study was to evaluate cardiovascular changes during cemented hip hemiarthroplasty in elderly patients.   methods:  cemented hip hemiarthroplasty was performed on 72 patients with femoral neck fracture. a...

background: to study the effect of oral garlic on arterial oxygen pressure in children with hepatopulmonary syndrome. materials and methods: garlic powder in a capsule form was given to 15 children with hepatopulmonary syndrome (confirmed by contrast echocardiography) at the dosage of 1 g/1.73 m2 per day. patients were evaluated clinically and by arterial blood gas every four weeks. results: th...

introduction: world health organization (who) introduced hypertension as an epidemic in developing countries. however, hypertension is adequately controlled in only 12.5% of patients.  the aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between ramadan fasting and mean arterial pressure (map). methods: this clinical, observational study was carried out at medical o.p.d of jinnah medical coll...

conclusions ipah is associated with subclinical hypothyroidism and low patient functional capacity, and is more common in rv failure. results in this research, 84.8% of the participants were women. the mean pap was 51.6 mmhg (31-87) and mean thyroid stimulating hormone (tsh) level was 4.2 miu/ml (0.7 - 10). subclinical hypothyroidism was detected in 26 patients (49.1%). there were significant c...

In this research, using the results of 6 tests, the effect of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) sheets on the behavior of reinforced concrete coupling beams of shear walls is studied. First, in the experimental part of the study, four coupling beams with different reinforcements were manufactured and tested. Then, after the failure of the specimens, two of them were rehabilitated and stren...

spherical equivalent (se) has not been linked to increased cardiovascular morbidity. methods: 132 hungarian twins (age 43.3±16.9 years) underwent refraction measurements (huvitz mrk-3100 premium autorefractokeratometer) and oscillometry (tensiomed arteriograph). results: heritability analysis indicated major role for genetic components in the presence of right and left se (82.7%, 95%ci, 62.9 to...
