Phrenic nerve displacement by intrapericardial balloon inflation during epicardial ablation of ventricular tachycardia: Four case reports
2020
BACKGROUND Phrenic nerve (PN) injury is one of the recognized possible complications following epicardial ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT). High-output pacing is a widely used maneuver to establish a relationship between the PN and the ablation catheter tip. An absence of PN capture is usually considered an indication that it is safe to ablate, and that successful ablation may be performed at adjacent sites. However, PN capture may impact the procedural outcome. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature that avoid PN injury by using different techniques. CASE SUMMARY Three patients with a previous history of myocarditis and one patient with ischemic cardiomyopathy underw…
MRT bei chronischer Epicondylitis humeri radialis an einem 1,0 T-Gerät - Kontrastmittelgabe notwendig?
2001
T: Is Gd-DTPA administration useful Purpose: Evaluation of the diagnostic value and confidence of contrast-enhanced MR imaging in patients with lateral epicondylitis in comparison to clinical diagnosis. Material and Methods: 42 consecutive patients with clinically proven chronic lateral epicondylitis and 10 ellbow joints of healthy controls have been examined on a 1.0 T MR-unit. Criteria for inclusion in the prospective study were: persistant pain and a failed conservative therapy. The MR protocol included STIR sequence, a native, T 2 -weighted, fat-supressed TSE sequence, and a Flash-2-D sequence. Also, fatsupressed, T 1 -weighted SE sequences before and after administration of Gd-DTPA con…
The efficacy of muscle energy techniques in symptomatic and asymptomatic subjects: a systematic review
2019
Abstract Background Muscle energy techniques are applied to reduce pain and increase range of motion. These are applied to a variety of pathological conditions and on asymptomatic subjects. There is however limited knowledge on their effectiveness and which protocol may be the most beneficial. Objective The aim of this review is to determine the efficacy of muscle energy techniques (MET) in symptomatic and asymptomatic subjects. Design Systematic Review. Methods A literature search was performed using the following database: Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, NLM Pubmed and ScienceDirect. Studies regarding MET in asymptomatic and symptomatic patients were considered for investigation. The main outc…
Sulcus ulnaris Syndrom nach Traumen im Ellenbogenbereich
2008
For a large scaled test 52 patients with anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve and 62 patients with elbow injuries were examined by questionnaire, physical examination and electroneurography. In conformity with existing literature 24 patients out of 52 suffering from cubital tunnel syndrome had an elbow trauma previously. To our great surprise in seven patients out of 46 with elbow injuries a cubital tunnel syndrome could be found for the first time. The cubital tunnel syndrome appears to be a frequent complication of elbow injuries. Besides the well known fractures of the medial epicondyle and pericondylar fractures leading to cubital tunnel syndrome, in our study fractures of the head…
Les vicissituds de la traducció al castellà d’elements heroics i medievals del Canigó, de Jacint Verdaguer. El cas de «La Maladeta»
2014
Resum: En aquest article s’estudien les dificultats de traduir «La Maladeta», un passatge de Canigó, de Jacint Verdaguer. Creiem que aquest fragment és prou representatiu de la temàtica del poema èpic verdaguerià, ja que ha estat un dels més traduïts a totes les llengües i, a més, conté elements heroics i medievals del poema. És per això que hem cregut oportú de fer l’anlàlisi de la traducció dels fragments, per poder treure’n unes conclusions que ens serveixin per avaluar la qualitat de cada versió.Paraules clau: Verdaguer, Canigó, medieval, traducció. Abstract: In this article we study the translation’s difficulties of «La Maladeta», an extract of Canigó by Jacint Verdaguer. We think that…

Problematyczne potomstwo "Pana Tadeusza" : wokół pewnego tekstu rocznicowego
2018
Progeny of “Sir Thaddeus” (1897), a less known essay by literary critic Cezary Jellenta [Napoleon Hirszband], presents an interesting attempt to discern and estimate novels of the 19th century Polish realists as originated from the great Mickiewicz’s poem. According to Jellenta, there are several social, national or aesthetic parallels existing between this famous epic work – a kind of architext and paradigm of Polish culture in general – and the well-known texts by Prus, Orzeszkowa, Sienkiewicz, Konopnicka or Witkiewicz, as well the unknown novel of Galician writer Alfred Nossig. Jellenta’s discourse and his often vague argumentation are involved both in traditional apology for Mickiewicz’…
Recipient Design by Gestures : How Depictive Gestures Embody Actions in Cooking Instructions
2022
This paper investigates how depictive gestures, i.e., hand movements that depict actions, scenes or objects, are configured and used for accomplishing instructions. By drawing on video recordings of second language interactions in cooking classes for newcomers in Finland, we focus on instructions that project a certain type of complying bodily action as the relevant next action. We demonstrate that the instructions are designed to be sensitive not only to the contingencies of the material ecology of the kitchen but also to the epistemic and linguistic asymmetries between the participants. The analysis shows how depictive gestures contribute to the forward-feeding function of cooking instruc…
Zakrzepica zatok żylnych — diagnostyka, leczenie farmakologiczne i alternatywne leczenie endowaskularne z zastosowaniem systemów do trombektomii
2018
Cel: Celem artykułu jest omówienie patofizjologii, obrazu klinicznego, neuroobrazowania zakrzepicy żył mózgowych oraz nowoczesnych metod leczenia, z uwzględnieniem leczenia endowaskularnego. Metody: Na podstawie dostępnego piśmiennictwa przeanalizowano wyniki leczenia farmakologicznego oraz alternatywnego postępowania endowaskularnego, obecnie wciąż zarezerwowanego dla chorych bez odpowiedzi lub z nieadekwatną odpowiedzią na leczenie farmakologiczne przeciwkrzepliwe. Wyniki: Objawy kliniczne zakrzepicy zatok żylnych są często niespecyficzne i wymagają dokładnej diagnostyki neurologicznej i obrazowej. Jest to o tyle istotne, że zakrzepica zatok żylnych występuje rzadko, dotyczy głównie młody…
