Hidradenitis suppurativa in surgeons' practice: Prevalence and treatment approach according to the Hurley stage in Latvia
2020
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, recurrent, debilitating, and frequently misdiagnosed inflammatory skin disease that often requires surgical intervention. To assess the prevalence of HS patients in surgeons' practice and surgeons' approach to treating HS patients, we created a self-administered, Hurley stage-based questionnaire that was distributed during the Latvian Association of Surgeons meeting. Of the total 60 questionnaires distributed, 56 (93%) were collected and 53 (88%) of them were considered valid. Overall, 73.6% of the surgeons confirmed having seen patients with chronic inflamed suppurative lesions in the skin folds during their practice. Median reported number of HS…
Retrospektīvs pētījums par dzīvildzi resnās zarnas vēža II stadijā, atkarībā no ārstēšanas stratēģijas
2017
Ievads: Adjuvanta ķīmijterapija pacientiem ar diagnosticētu II (UICC) stadijas resnās zarnas vēzi ir apsverama. Pacientu dalījums augsta un zema riska grupās, palīdz izlemt, vai pēc ķirurģiskas ārstēšanas ir indicēta ķīmijterapija, lai gan dzīvildzes ieguvumi nav ne plaši pētīti, nedz arī pierādīti. Tāpēc, autora mērķis šajā pētījumā bija salīdzināt piecu gadu dzīvildzi UICC II stadijas resnās zarnas vēža pacientiem, kuri saņēma adjuvantu ķīmijterapiju, un pacientiem, kuri ķīmijterapiju nesaņēma. Metodes: Dati par pacientiem ar II stadijas resnās zarnas vēzi, tika iegūti Paula Stradiņa Klīniskās universitātes slimnīcā Rīgā, Latvijā, Onkoloģijas klīnikā. Diagnozes apstiprināšanas laiks no 20…

Pulmonale Thrombendarteriektomie bei thromboembolischer pulmonaler Hypertonie: Indikationen und Frühergebnisse
2008
Pulmonary thrombendarterectomy was performed in 32 patients (14 men and 18 women; mean age 38 +/- 15 years) with thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (New York Heart Association stage III: n = 22; stage IV: n = 10). The preoperative arterial pO2 averaged 59 +/- 11 mm Hg; pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and mean pressure (MPAP) were increased to 1,045 +/- 430 dyn.s.cm-5 and 53 +/- 12 mm Hg, respectively. The perioperative death rate was 22% (7 of 32). In the 25 survivors the pulmonary hypertension was reduced to a PVR of 194 +/- 75 dys.s.cm-5, MPAP of 28 +/- 6 mm Hg. Subsequent re-examination in 15 patients (NYHA stage I: n = 14, stage II: n = 1) after a mean of 17 +/- 5 months demonstr…
P-0023 Gastric Cancer in Latvia in 1980 – 2010
2012
ABSTRACT Introduction According to GLOBOCAN 2008 data gastric cancer currently is the fourth most common cancer worldwide and the second most common cause of cancer death. The objective of this study was to get comparable data on gastric cancer for 30 years period, to analyze the trends of incidence and mortality in Latvia and to compare with situation in other countries. Methods Incidence and mortality data from 1980 to 2010 in Latvia were obtained from the National Health Service. IARC (GLOBOCAN 2008) database was used for international comparisons. Incidence and mortality rates were age standardized to the World Standard Population and expressed per 100,000 population. Results There were…
Thrombendarteriektomie bei chronischer thromboembolischer pulmonaler Hypertonie: Hämodynamik und Rechtsherzfunktion im Langzeitverlauf
2008
OBJECTIVE To find out whether pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) can achieve lasting reduction of pulmonary vascular resistance in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension due to chronic thromboembolism. PATIENTS AND METHODS 45 patients (25 women, 20 men; mean age 45 +/- 24 [19-67] years) were re-investigated a mean of 21 (13-32) months after successful PTE. Two patients had then been in New York Heart Association (NYHA) stage II, 26 in stage III, and 17 in stage IV. In addition to clinical examination and chest radiogram 36 patients had right heart catheterization, 28 pulmonary angiography and 44 echocardiography. RESULTS Definite improvement of symptoms had occurred in all. 34 wer…
Combining Deroofing with LAight® Therapy for Long-Term Disease Control of Hurley Stage II Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Case Report
2021
There is an increasing consensus that the treatment of Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) significantly varies with the degree of inflammation and that treatment according to guidelines is not always successful. Here, we report the case of a 31-year-old male with widespread, highly inflammatory Hurley Stage II HS in multiple locations who failed to respond to any kind of established medical treatment, including biologics. As an alternative approach, Ustekinumab was maintained, and additionally the patient was treated with LAight therapy, a combination of intense pulsed light and radiofrequency. After 10 sessions, deroofing of multiple lesions was performed in a two-step process. After a few week…
Influence of physical activity and maturation status on bone mass and geometry in early pubertal girls1
2005
This study aimed to evaluate the influence of leisure-time physical activity on the development of bone mass and density in early pubertal girls. Scores of physical activity were obtained from 242 Finnish girls (10-12 years old within Tanner Stages I-II) using a questionnaire. Bone mass and density were assessed using different densitometric techniques. At Tanner Stage I, active girls had significantly higher bone mineral mass (BMC) and areal bone mineral density (aBMD) of the whole body and cortical volumetric BMD and thickness of the tibial shaft compared with sedentary girls (P<0.05). On the other hand, the active girls at Tanner Stage II showed significantly higher values only in BMC an…
