Adequate analgesia in thoracic surgery is essential to prevent severe postoperative
complications, especially respiratory problems. Current knowledge about gender-related
differences in pain states generally more frequent and intense pain and more demand for
analgesics in women. Results about postsurgical pain in particular are very inconclusive.
The investigators tried to find out if gender has an influence on postthoracotomy pain and
analgesics requirement.
Successful treatment of central retinal artery occlusion using hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is considered an ophthalmologic emergency. The prognosis of this disease is very poor. Currently, there is no generally effective therapy available to treat CRAO. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can increase the...
Functional Medicine Approach to Traumatic Brain Injury.
Background: The U.S. military has seen dramatic increases in traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) among military personnel due to the nature of modern-day conflicts. Conventional TBI treatment for secondary brain injuries has suboptimal success rates, and patients, families, and healthcare professionals are increasingly turning to alternative medicine treatments. Objective: Effective treatments for the secondary injury cascades that occur after an initial brain trauma are unclear at this time. The goal of successful treatment options for secondary TBI injuries is to reduce oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, and inflammation while supporting mitochondrial functions and repair of membranes, synapses, and axons.
