Chest trauma is frequently followed by pulmonary contusion and sepsis. High mobility group box-1 (HMGB-1) is a late mediator of severe sepsis that has been associated with mortality under experimental conditions. We studied HMGB-1 mRNA expression in patients with lung injury and its relationship with the severity of trauma and survival. A total of 24 consecutive patients with chest trauma refer...
STUDY OBJECTIVE Myocardial contusion may induce life-threatening complications, but its diagnosis is difficult. Circulating cardiac troponin T is considered a highly sensitive and specific marker of myocardial cell injury. We investigate the value of cardiac troponin T measurement in the diagnosis of myocardial contusion. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING Level 1 trauma center. METHODS We...
BACKGROUND Our preliminary studies indicated that electroacupuncture (EA) at the ST36 and Ashi acupoints could promote regeneration of the rabbit gastrocnemius (GM) by improving microcirculation perfusion, promoting the recovery of myofiber structures, and inhibiting excessive fibrosis. However, the effects of EA on recovery of the electrophysiological properties of the GM after contusion are n...
AIM Traditional surgical strategies for severe brain contusion are constantly associated with variable degree of postoperative neurological dysfunction, which is in part attributed to the location and severity of contusion. The purpose of this study was to compare and evaluate these current surgical strategies, with an emphasis on neurological function preservation. MATERIAL AND METHODS A ret...
BACKGROUND Cerebral contusions have a 51% incidence of evolution in the first hours after injury. Evolution is associated with clinical deterioration and is the reason for ICP monitoring or surgical intervention. We sought to define CT features that predict cerebral contusion evolution. METHODS Patients treated for cerebral contusion who had 2 CT scans within 24 hours after injury were evalua...
Biomechanically Based Correlate for Localized Lung Contusion From Nonlethal Blunt Impact Projectiles
BACKGROUND von Willebrand factor (vWF) is only released from endothelial cells and platelets and is an in vivo and in vitro marker of endothelial injury in septic patients with acute lung injury (ALI). Interleukin-8 (IL-8), as a proinflammatory mediator causing recruitment of inflammatory cells, induces an increase in oxidant stress mediators and makes it as a key parameter for localized inflam...
OBJECT Although it is generally acknowledged that a sufficient cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) is necessary for treatment of severe head injury, the optimum CPP is still a subject of debate. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of various levels of blood pressure and, thereby, CPP on posttraumatic contusion volume. METHODS The left hemispheres of 60 rats were subjected to...
