From medical data to simple virtual mock-up of scapulo-humeral joint
2008
The surgical operations of shoulder joint are guided by various principles: osteosynthesis in the case of fracture, osteotomy in order to correct a deformation or to modify the functioning of the joint, or implementation of articular prosthesis. At the end of the twentieth century, many innovations in the domains of biomechanics and orthopedic surgery have been performed. Nevertheless, theoretical and practical problems may appear during the operation (visual field of surgeon is very limited, quality and shape of the bone is variable depending on the patient). Biomechanical criteria of success are defined for each intervention. For example, the installation with success of prosthetic implan…
Tratamiento de las ectasias corneales asociadas a LASIK con anillos intraestromales
2022
INTRODUCCIÓN: La ectasia corneal es una de sus complicaciones más graves de la cirugía LASIK. Está asociada a un adelgazamiento y un progresivo incurvamiento corneal y los anillos intracorneales (ICRS) se han propuesto como opción terapéutica debido a que inducen un aplanamiento. OBJETIVO: Evaluar los cambios producidos por los ICRS en pacientes diagnosticados de ectasias secundarias a LASIK. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Es un estudio retrospectivo donde se incluyeron 26 ojos con ectasia post-LASIK los cuales fueron tratados con ICRS tipo Ferrara (AJL, Vitoria). Se les realizó un examen refractivo (agudeza visual (AV) y la refracción subjetiva). Mediante Pentacam®HR (Oculus: OtikgerateGmbH, Wetzlar,…
Implantes cortos en la rehabilitación de pacientes desdentados posteriores con crestas atróficas. Estudio de casos-controles con seguimiento de 1 has…
2015
Los implantes dentales suelen ser el tratamiento de elección para las ausencias dentales. Sin embargo, la disponibilidad ósea en los sectores posteriores maxilares y mandibulares se ve comprometida frecuentemente por la presencia de estructuras anatómicas importantes como el nervio alveolar inferior o el seno maxilar. Los implantes cortos son una alternativa de tratamiento, pero se ha planteado que su reducida longitud puede comprometer el éxito del tratamiento. Los objetivos de esta tesis son analizar el éxito y la pérdida ósea de los implantes cortos y analizar los factores de riesgo. Material y método: se incluyeron 177 pacientes con 435 implantes de 8,5 mm de longitud (7 mm intraóseos) …
Buenas prácticas docentes en la Facultat de Fisioteràpia. Libro de resúmenes
2021
Conocer, desarrollar y compartir experiencias de buenas prácticas docentes constituye un elemento fundamental para mejorar los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje en contextos universitarios. Esto es especialmente relevante si consideramos la situación actual generada por los cambios sobrevenidos por la COVID-19, en la que la implantación de la docencia y de la evaluación a distancia adquiere un papel destacado en la docencia universitaria. Por todo ello, desde una de las acciones del Plan de Innovación de Centro de la Facultat de Fisioteràpia de la Universitat de Valencia, se plantearon estas jornadas. Su objetivo era compartir las experiencias de innovación docente de los últimos cursos des…
Spurectomy: A novel modification of non-penetrating deep sclerectomy.
2020
To evaluate the outcomes of a novel modification of the non-penetrating deep sclerectomy (NPDS) approach for glaucoma management called spurectomy.Observational comparative non-randomized retrospective study including 98 glaucomatous eyes of 76 patients operated on with the spurectomy technique consisting of the combination of the excision of the scleral spur with NPDS (groupA). A control group (groupB) including 53 glaucomatous eyes of 43 patients operated on with classical NPDS was also included. Changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) and medications required as well as complications were recorded in a 12-month follow-up.Mean IOP decreased from 25.69±8.11 preoperatively to 15.73±4.16mm Hg …
Ortotipografía científica en publicaciones médico-quirúrgicas: la normativa académica relativa a la prefijación
2015
El objetivo del presente artículo es analizar el grado de cumplimiento de la normativa académica relativa a la correcta escritura de las palabras prefijadas (recogida en la nueva Ortografía de 2010) que realizan algunas publicaciones periódicas de carácter científico-técnico y, en concreto, del ámbito médico-quirúrgico. Se trata de una labor de profundización en un estudio anterior (Aguilar Ruiz 2012: 9-12). Para ello, comentamos los errores e incorrecciones más recurrentes de un corpus de publicaciones científicas argentinas de finales de 2012. The aim of this paper is to analyze the degree of compliance on the correct academic writing prefixed words (contained in the new spelling) that pe…
“Near-TME”: proposed standardisation of the technique for proctectomy in male patients with ulcerative colitis
2022
Abstract Background The aim of the present study was to describe in detail an approach to proctectomy in ulcerative colitis (UC), which can be standardized; near-total mesorectal excision (near-TME), to prevent injuries to autonomic pelvic nerves and subsequent sexual dysfunction. Methods We demonstrate the technique ex vivo on a cadaver from a male patient in lithotomy position and on a sagittal section of a male pelvis. We also demonstrate the technique in vivo in two male patients diagnosed with UC, with no history of sexual dysfunction or bowel neoplasia. The study was performed at the Human Embryology and Anatomy Department. University of Valencia, Spain. Results The posterolateral dis…
Combination Therapy of Allopurinol and Dantrolene and Its Role In The Prevention of Experimental Ischemia Reperfusion Injury Of The Small Intestine.
2020
Background: The effect of different drugs on ischemia and reperfusion (I/R; induced oxygen free radical damage) was examined in small bowel tissue because the intestine is extremely sensitive to this pathology. Different drugs (allopurinol and dantrolene) can remove oxygen free radicals or inhibit the mechanisms leading to their generation, thus reducing mucosal lesions. We investigated the protective potential of combination therapy in the intestine against I/R damage. Methods: Forty-eight male Wistar rats were separated into 8 groups: one sham (control), one I/R (ischemia 60 min + reperfusion at 24 h), and 6 groups treated with allopurinol, dantrolene, or combination therapy. The grade of…
Carpal tunnel release surgery: small-area variation and impact of ambulatory surgery in the autonomous region of Valencia, Spain
2013
Objective: This study aimed to analyze variability in rates of carpal tunnel release surgery among the healthcare areas of the autonomous region of Valencia, and to evaluate the contribution of ambulatory surgery and referrals to private hospitals to the variability found. Methods: We carried out a cross-sectional, population-based study, describing the rates of carpal tunnel release surgery, standardized by age and sex, among areas in the region of Valencia in 2006. The observed variation was then analyzed using small-area analysis methods. Data from hospital admissions, referrals to private hospitals, population statistics and hospital resources were used to construct standardized rates, …
Current status of the torus palatinus and torus mandibularis
2007
While there is a hereditary component to tori, this does not explain all cases. Tori tend to appear more frequently during middle age of life; the torus palatinus is more commonly observed in females, but this is not the case with the torus mandibularis. Certain ethnic groups are more prone to one torus or the other. The torus is mainly removed due to prostodontic reasons, as it may also be used as biomaterial, not only in periodontology, but also in implantology. The aim of this study was a review of the literature from the past twenty years. Sin financiación 1.071 JCR (2010) Q3, 52/77 Dentistry, oral surgery & medicine UEM
