We describe 2 children with severe spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy (CP) who have significant drooling and frequent aspiration pneumonia. They underwent simultaneous botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injections to salivary glands for drooling and prevention of aspiration pneumonia along with single-event multilevel chemoneurolysis (SEMLC) with BTX-A and 5% phenol for severe diffuse spasticity. ...

Using HsPO4 and the dye T-1824 as labels, simultaneous injections were made into the right ventricle and into a peripheral vein, and cardiac output was calculated from the individual flowdilution curves. When a discrepancy beyond the range expected from the use of the two labels occurred, the output from the central injection was always the larger (approximately one-third of the observations, i...

Previous studies demonstrated that neuronal networks located in midlumbar segments (L3-L4) are critical for the expression of locomotion in cats following complete spinalization. In the present study the importance of several thoracolumbar segments (T8-L7) for the generation of spontaneous hindlimb locomotion in decerebrate cats was evaluated. Experiments were performed in high decerebrate cats...

backgroundthe absence of pain relief in infants can lead to harmful effects; so, this study aimed to investigate the effect of local heat on the pain of vitamin k injection in the infants.materials and methodsthis randomized clinical trial was conducted on 80 healthy infants. for the control group, 1 mg vitamin k was injected into the vastus lateralis muscle by a nurse. in the 3 intervention gr...

background: no extensive studies were done that included the use of pentoxifylline or verify its effect on the outcome of icsi in cases of mild and moderate asthenozoospermia. objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of pentoxifylline used in preparation of semen samples which doesn't need motility enhancement prior to icsi. materials and methods: the study was carried on 30 ...
