BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Low glucose values are often seen in term infants with NE, including HIE, yet the contribution of hypoglycemia to the pattern of neurologic injury remains unclear. We hypothesized that MR features of neonatal hypoglycemia could be detected, superimposed on the predominant HIE injury pattern. MATERIALS AND METHODS Term neonates (n = 179) with NE were prospectively imaged...

OBJECTIVE To discover if there is a significant difference in the pattern and severity of injury sustained during falls in patients who have consumed alcohol and those who have not. To determine how pattern and severity of injury correlates with blood alcohol concentration. METHOD A prospective quasi-randomised controlled study between November 2001 and July 2002. All healthy adults between 1...

Dorsal prefrontal lesions in dogs elicit hyperreactivity in instrumental discrimination and perseveration in trained serial action pattern. Lateral premotor injury causes hyporeactivity in instrumental discrimination and prolongation of activity in the trained serial action pattern. When the dorsal prefrontal area was injured together with the premotor region the result was again hyporeactivity...

Simultaneous combination of fracture of the lateral condyle and postero-medial elbow dislocation is a rare event and limited to few reports or case series in the literature. Rarity of the injury also necessitates judicious diagnosis and appropriate management to ensure optimal functional outcome. Various authors have reported about the condition including the management which mostly includes su...

34 bronchial and 13 intercostal arteries were selectively embolized in 27 patients. The most frequent predisposing factor was either active or residual pulmonary tuberculosis. The procedure was performed with Urografin as the contrast agent, cobra shaped or headhunter catheters, and gelfoam (no. 18) or Ivalon (no. 9) particles. The most common anatomic pattern was a common bonchial artery ...

BACKGROUND We have recently witnessed an epidemic of intentional vehicular assaults (IVA) aimed at pedestrians. We hypothesized that IVA are associated with a specific injury pattern and severity. METHODS Retrospective analysis of prospectively acquired data of patients injured following IVA from October 2008 to May 2016 who were admitted to the Hadassah Level I trauma center in Jerusalem, Is...

Vascular remodeling in adult human elastic pulmonary arteries is characterized by diffuse neointimal lesions containing smooth muscle cells expressing extracellular matrix genes. Recent studies suggest vascular injury is needed to initiate remodeling and that growth factor mediators participate in the repair response. However, because neointimal formation is only observed in patients with pulmo...

Objective(s):In this study, we aimed at evaluation of electrophysiological and histopathalogical characteristics of statin-induced muscle injury as well as clinical features of patients who develop this condition in terms of frequency and pattern of evolution. Materials and Methods: Forty patients (age 39-74 years) including 25 subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus, 9 with cardiovascular disea...
