Vulvar Epidermal Inclusion Cyst as a Long-term Complication of Female Genital Mutilation
2016
We present a case report of a patient with epidermal inclusion cyst as a late complication of female genital mutilation (FGM). We describe the management of the patient, and a review of the literature. We report the clinical and pathological findings in a 37-year-old female patient from Nigeria, with a clitoral mass of 1 year duration. She declared to have an FGM since she was 5 years. The lesion was excised successfully with good cosmetic results. Histological examination revealed epidermal cyst with the presence of granular layer. An epidermal inclusion cyst can develop as a long-term consequence of FGM.
Ventilation-Perfusion Ratio in Perflubron During Partial Liquid Ventilation
2010
BACKGROUND: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of fluorine-19 allows for the mapping of oxygen partial pressure within perfluorocarbons in the alveolar space (Pao(2)). Theoretically, fMRI-detected Pao(2) can be combined with the Fick principle approach, i.e., a mass balance of oxygen uptake by ventilation and delivery by perfusion, to quantify the ventilation-perfusion ratio (Va/Q) of a lung region: The mixed venous blood and the inspiratory oxygen fraction, which are equal for all lung regions, are measured. In addition, the local expiratory oxygen fraction and the end capillary oxygen content, both of which may differ between the lung regions, are calculated using the fMRI-detec…

Increased ventilation by fish leads to a higher risk of parasitism
2014
Background: Fish are common intermediate hosts of trematode cercariae and their gills can potentially serve as important sites of penetration by these larval stages. We experimentally tested the hypothesis that volume of ventilation flow across the gills contributes to acquisition of these parasites by fish. We manipulated the intensity of ventilation by using different oxygen concentrations. Methods: Juvenile Oncorhynchus mykiss were individually exposed for 10 minutes to a standard dose of Diplostomum pseudospathaceum cercariae at three levels of oxygen concentration, 30, 60 and 90%. Ventilation amplitude (measured as a distance between left and right operculum), operculum beat rate, and …
La Fuerza Multilateral y la multiplicidad nuclear en la OTAN (1960-1965)
2017
Desde finales de la década de 1950 y hasta 1965, el gobierno de Estados Unidos (EEUU) promovió la creación de una fuerza naval armada con misiles balísticos, conocida como Fuerza Multilateral (Multilateral Force, MLF), con tripulaciones multinacionales y bajo mando de la Organización del Tratado del Atlántico Norte (OTAN). La propuesta inicial de la administración Eisenhower trataba de satisfacer las quejas de algunos miembros de la OTAN acerca del monopolio que EEUU ejercía sobre la defensa nuclear de Europa. Aunque oficialmente se buscaba proporcionar un papel activo a los países europeos, en particular Alemania, en la estrategia nuclear conjunta, con la MLF los EEUU confiaban en inducir …

Results of heart retransplantation: subanalysis of the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry
2021
Heart retransplantation (ReHT) is controversial in the current era. The aim of this study was to describe and analyze the results of ReHT in Spain. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort analysis from the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry from 1984 to 2018. Data were collected on donors, recipients, surgical procedure characteristics, immunosuppression, and survival. The main outcome was posttransplant all-cause mortality or need for ReHT. We studied differences in survival according to indication for ReHT, the time interval between transplants and era of ReHT. Results A total of 7592 heart transplants (HT) and 173 (2.3%) ReHT were studied (median age, 52.0 and 55.0 years, respectively…
Akutes Lungenversagen bei Malaria tropica in der Schwangerschaft: Erfolgreiche Behandlung durch extrakorporale CO2-Elimination
2008
Eine 32jahrige Schwangere (26. Schwangerschaftswoche) erkrankte am 6. Tag nach der Ruckkehr von einem Indonesienaufenthalt mit Fieber bis 42°C, hamolytischer Anamie (Hamoglobin 7,6 g/dl) und Thrombozytopenie (7000/µl). Es wurde eine Malaria diagnostiziert; eine Prophylaxe hatte sie nicht durchgefuhrt. Unter antiparasitarer Chemotherapie mit Chloroquin, Chinin und Pyrimethamin kam es zur Elimination der Parasiten (Makrogametozyten von Plasmodium falciparum) aus dem peripheren Blut. Im weiteren Verlauf entwickelte sich jedoch ein progredientes Lungenversagen und eine therapierefraktare Pneumonie, die zu einem »adult respiratory distress syndrome« (ARDS; Morel-Stadium 4) fuhrten. Bei drohendem…
Knowledge, attitudes and practices of primary healthcare professionals to female genital mutilation in Valencia, Spain: are we ready for this challen…
2017
Background The practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is a deeply-rooted tradition in 30 Sub-Saharan and Middle-East countries which affects approximately 200 million women and girls worldwide. The practice leads to devastating consequences on the health and quality of life of women and girls in both the short and long term. Globalizing processes and migration flows have recorded cases of this practice worldwide representing for healthcare professionals an emerging challenge on how to approach their healthcare in a transcultural, ethical and respectful way. No survey to assess knowledge, attitudes and practices on FGM among primary healthcare professionals has been conducted in the Val…
Impact of Circulatory Assistance in the Early Evolution After Heart Transplantation. Unicentric Experience.
2021
ABSTRACT Background Heart transplantation (HT) is the reference treatment for patients with terminal heart failure. In recent years there has been a progressive increase in HT procedures in patients who have a circulatory support (CS). Methods This is a retrospective single-center study of 293 consecutive patients who underwent HT from 2009 to 2018, analyzing the evolution of the 2 cohorts: patients with and without CS as a bridge to HT. Baseline and evolutionary clinical data collected following the usual follow-up protocol were recorded, including clinical events observed during the follow-up 1 year after the procedure. Results The subgroup of patients transplanted with CS showed a higher…
