Jauna pieeja akūta apendicīta ārstēšanai bērnu vecuma pacientiem Latvijā 2014 - 2017
2018
Problēmas būtība: Vēsturiski vienīgā ārstēšanas metode akūta apendicīta gadījumā ir ķirurģiskā. Bet attistoties famakoloģijai un radiloģijai akūts apendicīts mūsdienās tiek ārstēts arī konsevatīvi. Akūta apendicīta gadījumā pats galvenais ir neatliekama pacienta hospitalizācija ka arī savlaicīga konservatīva vai ķirurģiska ārstēšana. Savlaicīga diagnostika noverš negatīvo apendektomijas skaitu, ietekmē hospitālizācijas ilgumu, kas savukārt ietekmē pacientu no dažādiem aspektiem. Pētījuma mērķi: Noskaidrot akūta apendicīta incidenci bērniem Latvijā un balstoties uz Valsts sabiedrības ar ierobēžotu atbildību “Bērnu klīniskā universitātes slimnīcu” (VSIA BKUS) ārstēto pacientu datiem laikā per…
Assessment of the lower limb biomechanics in patients after tibiofibular syndesmosis injury treatment
2021
Purpose: There is no consensus as to the number of bone cortices engaged in tibiofibular syndesmosis treatment. The purpose of our study was to assess the weight distribution on the lower limbs after tricortical or quadricortical syndesmosis fixation and different timing of screw removal. Methods: A total of 55 patients who underwent treatment for acute tibiofibular syndesmosis injury were analyzed in this study. The Zebris pedobarographic platform was used to measure the distribution of body weight on the lower limbs. The study population was stratified by the time to syndesmotic screw removal (8–15 weeks versus 16–22 weeks) and the number of bone cortices involved in fixation (three [tric…

SAGITTAL ALIGNMENT OF SPINE REGULATED BY PELVIC INCIDENCE: A REVIEW
2012
The present paper is not only a review of the literature on pelvic incidence parameter, is also designed to reflect anew to the actions of preventive and compensatory physical activity, with particular reference to abdominal exercises. The incidence pelvic anatomy is a parameter whose value represents the angle between the perpendicular to the sacral plate at its midpoint and the line joining this point to the axis of the femoral head; it controls the spinal curves in accordance with the adaptability other parameters. The studies analyzed here suggest new considerations to be applied in the dynamic execution of preventive and compensatory physical activity. The training of the muscles lumba…
An Extremely Rare Case of Disseminated Peritoneal Leiomyomatosis with a Pelvic Leiomyosarcoma and Omental Metastasis after Laparoscopic Morcellation:…
2022
Minimally invasive treatment of uterine fibroids usually requires a power morcellation, which could be associated with several complications. A rare sequela is disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis. Indeed, recurrence or metastasis in these cases could be attributed to iatrogenic or under-evaluation of primary tumors, although a subset of cases is a sporadic sample of biological progression. We present an extremely rare case of a patient who underwent laparoscopic morcellation and after 12 years developed a pelvic leiomyosarcoma with two omental metastases, disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis with a parasite leiomyoma with bizarre nuclei and a parasite cellular leiomyoma simultaneously.…
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…
Rotator cuff calcific tendinopathy: from diagnosis to treatment
2018
Rotator cuff calcific tendinopathy (RCCT) is a very common condition caused by the presence of calcific deposits in the rotator cuff (RC) or in the subacromial-subdeltoid (SASD) bursa when calcification spreads around the tendons. The pathogenetic mechanism of RCCT is still unclear. It seems to be related to cell-mediated disease in which metaplastic transformation of tenocytes into chondrocytes induces calcification inside the tendon of the RC. RCCT is a frequent finding in the RC that may cause significant shoulder pain and disability. It can be easily diagnosed with imaging studies as conventional radiography (CR) or ultrasound (US). Conservative management of RCCT usually involves rest,…
Predictors of long-term outcomes in patients undergoing periodontal maintenance
2017
Abstract Aim This retrospective study aimed to characterize the baseline status of patients following periodontal maintenance, analysing the association between the long‐term outcome of these patients, smoking, bruxism, and the main clinical and radiographic variables. Material and methods A sample of 174 patients with moderate to severe periodontitis was refined into homogeneous subsamples according to smoking and bruxism and the rate of tooth loss due to periodontal disease (TLPD): 0, 1–2, and >2 teeth. The association and the distribution (χ² test) of the variables within the subsamples were analysed. Results Smoking and bruxism were significantly associated with higher TLPD rates. Verti…
Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) for Unresectable Peritoneal Metastases. Feasibility, Safety and Efficacy Outcomes
2022
Recently, a novel method for chemotherapy administration inside the abdominal cavity gained wide attention among surgical oncologists dealing with peritoneal surface malignancies. Based on laparoscopy, Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a drug delivery system designed to overcome the known hurdles of intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Preclinical data suggest that the aerosol drug that PIPAC creates and the increased intraabdominal pressure obtained during laparoscopy provide highly effective distribution of cytotoxic compounds into tumor nodules. Several studies have documented the favorable safety profile and promising clinical outcomes of repetitive PIPAC in different…
Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors and Atherosclerosis
2011
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) represent the family of 3 nuclear receptor isoforms-PPARα, -γ, and -δ/β, which are encoded by different genes. As lipid sensors, they are primarily involved in regulation of lipid metabolism and subsequently in inflammation and atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis considers accumulation of the cells and extracellular matrix in the vessel wall leading to the formation of atherosclerotic plaque, atherothrombosis, and other vascular complications. Besides existence of natural ligands for PPARs, their more potent synthetic ligands are fibrates and thiazolidindiones. Future investigations should now focus on the mechanisms of PPARs activation, …
