Post-synoviorthesis rehabilitation in haemophilia.
2001
The efficacy of radiosynoviorthesis in the management of chronic haemophilic synovitis has been proven. Like replacement therapy, however, this procedure has no effect on muscle strength or endurance, range of movement, coordination, or the patient's physical condition in general. All the factors just enumerated are essential for the recovery and maintenance of the haemophiliac's quality of life. That is why rehabilitation and physiotherapy are so important, since no medical therapy or surgical procedure are by themselves capable of preventing disabilities.
Effect of Manual Therapy and Splint Therapy in People with Temporomandibular Disorders: A Preliminary Study
2020
Background: Isolated manual therapy techniques (MT) have shown beneficial effects in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) but the effect of the combination of such techniques, together with the well-stablished splint therapy (ST) remains to be elucidated. Objective: This study was conducted to ascertain whether a combined program of MT techniques, including intraoral treatment, plus traditional ST improves pain and clinical dysfunction in subjects with TMD. Methods: A preliminary trial was conducted. 16 participants were assigned to either the MT plus ST-Experimental Group (EG, n = 8) or the ST alone&mdash
Osteoblastic osteogenic sarcoma in a 13-month-old girl.
1994
Summary Osteosarcoma is exceptional in early periods of life. Therefore osteosarcomas involvingthe bones of the hand are extremely rare. We present a case of an osteogenic sarcoma involving the second metacarpal bone of a 13-month-old girl who has been remaining free of disease, after treatment — radial amputation and chemotherapy pre- and post-operative-, for a period of 10 years in the follow-up.
Tubular carcinoma of the breast: Outcome and loco-regional recurrence in 307 patients
2005
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study is to describe the University of Florence experience in evaluating clinical, pathologic and treatment factors as they are related to the outcome and loco-regional recurrence in patients with tubular breast carcinoma. Material and methods Three hundred and seven patients (median age 56.4 years, range 26–91 years) with histological verified tubular carcinoma of the breast were consecutively treated at University of Florence from 1976 to 2001. All patients were followed for a median of 8.4 years (range 3 months to 20 years). Thirty-seven women underwent mastectomy and 270 underwent breast conserving surgery. Positive axillary nodes were found in 15% of pa…
Oral contraceptives in the prevention of endometrioma recurrence: does the different progestins used make a difference?
2013
""The primary aim of the study was to analyze the endometrioma recurrence rate in patients who underwent laparoscopic excision followed by postoperative long-term regimen of oral contraceptives (OCs).. . MATERIALS AND METHODS: 168 patients who underwent a conservative laparoscopic surgery for endometrioma, during the period between September 2009 and August 2010 in three university hospitals were studied. A long-term OCs therapy was offered to all women following surgery. Patients were randomly divided into three groups according to different progestins used (desogestrel, gestodene, dienogest). Women who refused a postoperative hormonal therapy served as control. Follow-up visits and transv…
Vietniekvārdi un pārsteiguma izteikšana latviešu valodā
2022
Bakalaura darbā „Vietniekvārdi un pārsteiguma izteikšana latviešu valodā” uzmanība pievērsta pārsteigumam kā svarīgai valodas vienībai, jo līdz šim pētījumos miratīvam latviešu valodā bijusi salīdzinoši maza uzmanība. Darba mērķis ir pētīt pārsteiguma izteikšanu ar vietniekvārdu konstrukcijām. Piemēru atlasei izmantotas latviešu rakstnieku lugas un „Līdzsvarotais latviešu valodas tekstu korpuss 2018”, „Raiņa darbu korpuss”, „Latvijas Republikas 5.–12. Saeimas sēžu stenogrammu korpuss”, „Latviešu senākie romāni”, „Latviešu valodas seno tekstu korpuss”, „Tīmeklis 2020” un „Latviešu valodas emuāru korpuss”, kā arī izmantoti runātās valodas piemēri, jo miratīvs galvenokārt īstenojas mutvārdu sa…
Modālo darbības vārdu lietojums ekonomikas diskursā
2016
Šī bakalaura darba mērķis bija analizēt funkcijas, kuras pilda modālie darbības vārdi ekonomikas diskursā kā arī noteikt visbiežāk lietotus modālos darbības vārdus analizējamajā diskursā. Pētījums sastāv no trīm nodaļām: pirmajā nodaļā tiek apskatīts 'ekonomikas diskursa' jēdziens, kā arī to raksturojošās pazīmes. Otrajā nodaļā tiek apspriesta modālo darbības vārdu sistēma un to funkcijas. Trešajā nodaļa tiek analizēti piecpadsmit raksti, kas tika publicēti "The Guardian" (elektroniskā versijā), iztirzājot modālo darbības vārdu lietojumu, kā arī paudot to funkcijas ekonomikas tekstos. Pētījuma rezultāti liecina, ka modālie darbības vārdi tiek visumā bieži lietoti ekonomikas diskursā, jo tie…
Spinal anaesthesia in a patient with post-spine surgery dural ectasia.
2013
Dural sac ectasia is a very infrequent anatomical abnormality, usually caused by connective tissue diseases, as Marfan syndrome. Very few cases have been described being a consequence of a previous spine surgical procedure. We describe the case of an elderly patient who should be operated on twice due to sub-occlusive colon disease. Surgery was performed under spinal anaesthesia. A dural sac ectasia was suspected after the first procedure and the abdominal X-ray was reviewed. The characteristics of the anatomical alteration and the course of both anaesthetic procedures were described. X-ray and CT images were provided.
Patients' conceptions of undergoing physiotherapy for persistent low back pain delivered in Finnish primary healthcare by physiotherapists who had pa…
2020
To explore the conceptions of patients with persistent low back pain (LBP) of undergoing physiotherapy delivered in Finnish primary healthcare by physiotherapists who had participated in brief training in Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT).As part of a feasibility implementation study exploring CFT in management of LBP in the Finnish primary healthcare system, we interviewed nine patients from four geographical areas in Finland after receiving care. We used a phenomenographic approach to explore the variation in their conceptions.The analysis revealed four descriptive categories: "hung out to dry," "stuck," "making sense and taking control," and "holistic approach to care and living," that …
Abatacept as Adjunctive Therapy in Refractory Polymyalgia Rheumatica.
2021
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are the mainstay of treatment for patients with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR).1 Despite their efficacy, GCs are associated with well-known adverse events and a substantial proportion of patients with PMR do not respond adequately, or are refractory, to initial GC treatment. GC-sparing agents in PMR are limited to methotrexate (MTX).1.
