American football is one of the leading causes of athletic-related injuries. Injury rates in female elite players are mostly unknown. We hypothesized that the injury rates of female was comparable to those in men's football during practice, as well as games. From 2009 to 2011, injury data were collected from the German female national team during training camps, World Championship 2010 and Inte...

A paucity of literature exists on risk factors for mortality in charcoal burning suicide. In this observational study, we analyzed the data of 126 patients with charcoal burning suicide that seen between 2002 and 2013. Patients were grouped according to status of renal damage as acute kidney injury (N = 49) or non-acute kidney injury (N = 77). It was found that patients with acute kidney injury...

Thoracic trauma is a common injury that has a high mortality rate. Fortunately, most can be treated by a simple maneuver as intercostal drainage (79.4%). During the decade 1997-2006, there were 897 admitted patients in the Trauma division of Siriraj Hospital. Most were men (85.5%) and the common age group was 21-30 years. Blunt trauma was the major type of injury (58.9%) and traffic accidents w...

Background: Ischemia and reperfusion after transplantation is the main problem which decreases follicular density in the grafted ovarian. Many sources of free radicals such as xanthine oxidase were generated during ischemia. In this study, we used allopurinol as xanthine oxidase inhibitor to reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury, to increase received oocytes and embryos, and to decrease Apoptosis ...

background: injury is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children. there is insufficient data on the epidemiology or incidence of injuries in the first two years of life, especially in iran. the main objective of this study was to describe the incidence and causes of injuries in a sample group of infants and toddlers in mashhad, iran. methods: this prospective, observational study, w...

Neonatal Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is characterized by a sudden decline in renal function, or failure of physiologic rise glomerular filtrate rate, leading to the kidneys' inability maintain fluid and electrolyte homeostasis.1,2 Despite significant attention given epidemiology acute kidney injury adult older paediatric populations, there paucity data on neonatal AKI. There has been notable lack...

ABSTRACT Introduction Discuss the application of magnetic resonance imaging in evaluating ankle motion injury. Objective Verify influencing factors resource (MRI) diagnosis based on linear regression algorithm model. Methods The experimental group was diagnosed by MRI, while control plain X-ray. After that, mathematical model constructed. Results It could be concluded that MRI detection rate 85...

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of neuromuscular training in reducing the rate of acute knee injury in adolescent female football players. Design Stratified cluster randomised controlled trial with clubs as the unit of randomisation. Setting 230 Swedish football clubs (121 in the intervention group, 109 in the control group) were followed for one season (2009, sevenmonths). Participants...

background: simvastatin is a widely used medication in cardiac care. here we evaluate the role of atp sensitive potassium (katp) channels in simvastatin induced renal protection after renal ischemia/reperfusion (i/r) injury.    methods: a total of 81 male wistar rats, were treated with simvastatin (10 and 20mg/kg/day gavage, one week). some groups received glibenclamide (katp channel inhibitor ...
