Pre-operative diclofenac HPβCD for pain control of needle biopsy in musculoskeletal neoplasm: preliminary results.
2015
Needle biopsy is the main standard method used for diagnosis of musculoskeletal tumors of the limbs and superficial trunk. Pain control during this procedure is through the use of Local Anaestetic (L.A.). In order to achieve a complete pain control in our cases, recently we started using diclofenac HPβCD 50 mg via s.c. preoperativly. We present the clinical results of a non-randomized study of two eterogeneous groups of patients: "Experimental" Group (1): diclofenac HPβCD 50 mg via s.c. one hour before surgical procedure, local anesthesia and ev. diclofenac HPβCD 50 mg via s.c. 12 hours postoperative; "Conventional" Group (2): local anesthesia and ev. postoperative tramadol 100 mg via oral …
The erector spinae plane block: a narrative review
2019
Regional anesthesia and pain management have experienced advances in recent years, especially with the advent of fascial plane blocks. The erector spinae plane block is one of the newest techniques to be described. In the past two years, publications referring to ESP block have increased significantly. The objective of this review is to analyze the articles about ESP block that have been published to date. We performed a search in the main databases and identified 368 articles. After a selection of the relevant articles, 125 studies were found eligible and were included in the review. The ESP block is performed by depositing the local anesthetic in the fascial plane, deeper than the erector…
Inguinal hernia repair in German military hospitals.
2005
ABSTRACT The inguinal hernia repair continues to be the most common operation in general surgery. Discussing the latest scientific findings, we have prepared this article to present a state-of-the-art approach to the inguinal hernia repair. This approach is used for discussing the general principles of hernia repair in German military hospitals. Quality assurance requires that all hernias be classified during surgery on the basis of a standardized approach for an objective comparison of treatment and outcomes. Our approach to hernia repair considers the age of the patient, the diameter and location of the hernia and whether or not the herniation is recurrent. The Shouldice technique perform…
“Less invasive” surgery in the treatment of cutaneous chronic ulcers of the lower limb in elderly
2010
The role of treatment of vascular lesions of the legs is very important in the elderly. Pain, inability, bandages, periodicity of medications can seriously interfere with a good quality of life because of the lower compliance of geriatric patients to accept a surgical approach. To allow a new approach to vascular lesions the Authors propose a guideline in which the topic of “less invasive” surgery is underlined based on their pathophysiological causes. Patients affected with lesions of the legs are addressed to the Leg Ulcers Centre by general physicians and selected on the basis of age and comorbility to propose a therapeutical plan. General conditions, evaluation of lesions healing and of…
“Throwing into the Whirlwind Vortex”: Unaccounted Memoirs about Blok by S. Korenev
2021
The article examines certain plots of the “Blok theme” in the 1920s Riga periodicals, which had not previously attracted the attention of researchers. The Russian press of independent Latvia (1919 –1940) has preserved many tens, if not hundreds, of articles, correspondences, documents, poetic texts dedicated to A.A. Blok’s personality and works. Among them are memoirs of people who were familiar with the poet, met with him, listened to his speeches. However, most of these scattered memoirs remain forgotten and are not taken into account in the Blok studies. The author recalls the texts of V.V. Tretyakov, A.M. Perfiliev and republishes from the Riga newspaper “Slovo” a memorial article about…

DIFFERENTIAL INFLUENCE OF PERIPHERAL AND SYSTEMIC SEX STEROIDS ON SKELETAL MUSCLE QUALITY IN PRE- AND POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN.
2011
Aging is associated with gradual decline of skeletal muscle strength and mass often leading to diminished muscle quality. This phenomenon is known as sarcopenia and affects about 30% of the over 60-year-old population. Androgens act as anabolic agents regulating muscle mass and improving muscle performance. The role of female sex steroids as well as the ability of skeletal muscle tissue to locally produce sex steroids has been less extensively studied. We show that despite the extensive systemic deficit of sex steroid hormones in postmenopausal compared to premenopausal women, the hormone content of skeletal muscle does not follow the same trend. In contrast to the systemic levels, muscle t…
Ojczyzna prywatna i zrównoważony rozwój
2018
Od kilku lat obserwujemy renesans społeczności lokalnych - ojczyzn prywatnych, których rolę w życiu każdego człowieka trudno przecenić. To w nich kształtuje się tożsamość zarówno jednostkowa, jak i społeczna. Odradzanie się społeczności lokalnych w poważnym stopniu wiąże się z przeobrażeniami globalnymi, którym lokalności ulegają w różnym stopniu. Równocześnie w społecznościach lokalnych (ojczyznach prywatnych) dokonują się ważne zmiany społeczne, dzisiaj koncentrujące się w poważnym stopniu na wdrażaniu zasad zrównoważonego rozwoju. Prowadzi on, prosto rzecz ujmując, do pomnażania ludzkich wyborów przy zachowaniu harmonii ze środowiskiem przyrodniczym. Ważnym terminem staje się więc ekolog…
Quantitative Approximation Properties for the Fractional Heat Equation
2017
In this note we analyse \emph{quantitative} approximation properties of a certain class of \emph{nonlocal} equations: Viewing the fractional heat equation as a model problem, which involves both \emph{local} and \emph{nonlocal} pseudodifferential operators, we study quantitative approximation properties of solutions to it. First, relying on Runge type arguments, we give an alternative proof of certain \emph{qualitative} approximation results from \cite{DSV16}. Using propagation of smallness arguments, we then provide bounds on the \emph{cost} of approximate controllability and thus quantify the approximation properties of solutions to the fractional heat equation. Finally, we discuss genera…
Predicting species richness of wood-inhabiting fungi, epiphytic bryophytes and lichens based on stand structure and indicator species
2015
Maailmanlaajuinen monimuotoisuuden vähentyminen on ollut suuri huolenaihe jo useiden vuosikymmenten ajan. Lauhkeat lehtimetsät ovat yksi eniten ihmisen vaikutuksesta kärsineistä biomeista ja eteenkin vanhat, luonnontilaiset metsät ovat vähentyneet huolestuttavasti. Ilmaston ja maisemallisten tekijöiden lisäksi metsän historia, häiriödynamiikka, metsätalous ja ekologinen jatkuvuus vaikuttavat metsän rakenteelliseen monimuotoisuuteen ja näin ollen myös lajirunsauteen. Monet lajiryhmät ovat kuitenkin huonosti tunnettuja ja vaikeasti havaittavissa, eikä lopullisia syitä lajin häviämiseen alueelta pystytä varmasti sanomaan. Tutkimukseni tarkoitus oli selvittää, mitkä elementit metsän rakenteessa…
