Landmark Based Femoral Central Venous Catheterization, A Reliable And Safe Method In Acute Burns Resuscitation: An Institutional Based Study

Background: Central Venous Catheterizations (CVC) is a standard method of intravenous access in resuscitation of acute severe burn patients, with the subclavian and internal jugular veins being preferred over the femoral vein. However the ease of placement and the decreased chance of life threatening complications make it an attractive and safe option for the burns physician. Aims: To study the efficacy femoral CVC in acute burns resuscitation. Methods: This is a prospective observational study conducted over a period of 2 years. Patients with acute severe burns were admitted, and landmark based femoral central venous catheter was placed for resuscitation. Results: A total of 300 femoral central lines were placed in 300 patients. In 84.66% patients the right femoral vein was used and 15.3% patients, left femoral vein was catheterized. In 65% patients catheterisation was done in one attempt while 34.33% patients required 23 attempts. No use of ultrasound was required in any of our patients. The risk of catheter related blood stream infections due to femoral CVC was not higher when compared with CVC placement in other sites (subclavian/internal jugular). Conclusion: Landmark based femoral central venous catheterisation is a quick, reliable and safe method to attain venous access in acute severe burn patients with lesser chances of immediate life threatening complications when compared to other sites of placement.
E¡ects of hyperbaric oxygen on GDNF expression and apoptosis in spinal cord injury

The e¡ects of hyperbaric oxygen treatmenton theprogress of secondary damage following traumatic spinal cord injury were investigated. The early onset of hyperbaric oxygen treatment signi¢cantly diminished the number of apoptotic cells 1 day after the injury.However, hyperbaric oxygen did not in£uence the proliferation of macrophages or activated microglia. The gene expression of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and inducible nitric oxide synthetase (iNOS) was signi¢cantly attenuated1 day after the injury in the hyperbaric oxygen groups compared with the control group. The down-regulation was con¢rmedby immunohistochemical staining.Early hyperbaric oxygen treatment was shown to e¡ectively suppress the progress of apoptosis perhaps via the inhibition of iNOS gene despite the down-regulation of the GDNF gene.

INTRACRANIAL TUMOR RESECTION

Accepted, August 13, 2002. OBJECTIVE: Policies of regionalization and selective referral for a number of “highrisk” surgical procedures are being explored and implemented as a result of significant variation in postoperative mortality between highand low-volume providers. The effect of provider volume on outcomes after intracranial tumor resection is unknown and warrants investigation. METHODS: By use of the Nationwide Inpatient Sample for 1996 and 1997, patients (older than 19 yr) who had a diagnosis of a malignant central nervous system neoplasm and underwent craniotomy or craniectomy were included. Hospital volume and surgeon volume were categorized by quartiles (very low, low, high, or very high volume). Unadjusted and case mix-adjusted analyses were performed with regard to postoperative in-hospital mortality. RESULTS: The crude in-hospital mortality was 2.8% for a total of 7547 patients. The mean patient age was 55.8 years (66.5% 65; 33.5% 65). Mortality for very lowto very high-volume hospitals was as follows: 3.8, 3.2, 2.4, and 1.8% (P 0.001). Mortality for very lowto very high-volume surgeons was as follows: 4.1, 3.9, 3.1, and 1.4% (P 0.003). Predictors of mortality in a logistic regression model were emergent admission (odds ratio [OR], 2.97; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.02–4.38; P 0.001), and age 65 years or greater (OR, 1.63; 95% CI, 1.16–2.30; P 0.005). The risk of mortality was reduced for very high-volume hospitals (OR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.35–0.97; P 0.038) and very high-volume surgeons (OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.22–0.84; P 0.012). CONCLUSION: Higher-volume providers have superior outcomes after surgical resection of malignant intracranial tumors. This reduction was maintained despite adjustment for case mix. As the regionalization of high-risk surgery moves forward, it is important for neurosurgeons to maintain leadership roles in the development of specialty-specific data collection and health policy initiatives that improve and reduce variation in outcomes.

Primary report of first national study on merging smoking cessation with drug abuse treatment in welfare organization, Iran 2017

Nicotine addiction is rarely regarded with the same urgency as drug narcotics abuse in the scope of public health [1]. Yet, with the rise of cigarette consumption within developing countries reaching epidemic levels, the specter of widespread smokingrelated morbidity and mortality remains a looming public health crisis [2]. It is predicted that by 2030 over 80% of smokingrelated deaths worldwide will occur in countries with low or average income [3]. In the Islamic Republic of Iran, conservative estimates place the over prevalence at 16% [4]. Recent data show that 80.6% of current smokers first experimented before the age of 15 years (around the average age of narcotics experimentation). It is estimated that 10.3% of young people smoke habitually [5].
Neurosurgery 1992-98 January 1993, Volume 32, Number 1 51 Sonic Stereometry in Microsurgical Procedures for Deep-Seated Brain Tumors and Vascular Malformations

A FRAMELESS COMPUTERIZED navigating system was successfully employed in 20 cases of open microsurgical operations on deepseated brain tumors and vascular malformations. Localization in space was made by measuring the traveling time of sonic waves (24 kHz) in air. This allowed the construction of mechanically simple, lightweight freehand targeting instruments. The tips can be localized with a measuring accuracy of ± 1 mm intracranially on the basis of computed tomographic scans. This thoroughly redesigned sonic stereometrical device is being optimized for everyday use; magnetic resonance imaging, digital substraction angiography, and other diagnostic modalities will be implemented. Some perspectives on "computer-aided (neuro)surgery" are discussed.
Lumbar Vertebrae: Anatomic and Radiologic Perspectives Related to Surgical Procedures

The present study was undertaken to determine the surgically relevant parameters of the lumbar vertebrae, including interpedicular distance and vertebral body width. The anteroposterior radiographs of the lumbar vertebrae of 551 (315 women, 236 men) healthy, adult people aged 25 to 50 years were obtained with an electronic digital caliper. The mean values of interpedicular distance were found between 21.2±1.2 mm and 26.1±1.9 mm from the levels of L1 to L5 in women and between 21.9±1.1 mm and 27.3±1.9 mm from the levels of L1 to L5 in men. Additionally, the mean values of vertebral body width were between 36.5±2.6 mm and 43.7±2.8 in women and between 39.8±2.6 mm and 47.2±2.8 mm in men from the levels of L1 to L5.
ION MOBILITY SPECTRUM BY ALPHA-TRACK DETECTION

A number of investigators have reported the formation of radiolytic ultrafine particles produced by the interaction of ionizing radiation with atmospheric trace gases. Previous studies have suggested that a very high localized concentration of the OH radical produced by the radiolysis of water can react with atmospheric trace gas, like SO,, to produce lower vapor pressure compounds that can then nucleate. To determine trace-gas dependence of the active, positively charged, first decay product of radon, the mobility spectrum of the decay products in the range of 0.06-3.0 cm2 V-'s-' was measured in a flow-through radon chamber using a specially designed mobility spectrometer. Measurements were taken for different relative humidities and concentrations of SO2 in purified laboratory compressed air. The resultant mobility spectra were compared with radiolytic ultrafine particle activity distribution data. In the case of low humidities, the reduction of available OH concentration and hence neutralization rate led to the increasing intensity of the shoulder around 1.35 cm2 V-'s-' with increasing SO,, suggesting SO2 clustering around the PoO,+ ion. For high humidity conditions (5 ppm SO? , 30% RH), there was clear droplet formation, H2S04, clustering around the ion, and also an increase in the background level between the high mobility peak and droplet peak.

RECOMBINANT FACTOR VIIa FOR EXCESSIVE BLEEDING AFTER THROMBECTOMY PRIOR TO KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION

eat and drink liberally. Within 6 weeks, ulcerations totally regressed. Six months later, the patient is in perfect clinical condition with no oral ulcers or renal dysfunction (Fig. 1b). Differential diagnosis of leucopenia and mucosal ulcerations in an immunocompromised patient includes hematologic disorders, malignancies and viral infections. These conditions were ruled out in this patient by extensive workup for infections along with her good general condition. References in the literature for mucosal ulcerations of GI tract after MMF therapy and their regression after its withdrawal led us to stop administering the drug, resulting in the resolution of the ulcers. Measurement of MMF serum levels was not possible. Severe leucopenia, a possible side effect, occurred in our patient, so the possibility of an adjuvant factor acting synergistically with MMF as an unknown and undetectable virus, and/or idiosyncratic reasons, in provoking these complications is only speculation. Withdrawal of MMF led to the regression of the lesions, suggesting that its involvement is indispensable for their occurrence. Therefore, we are beginning to support the evidence that, in rare cases, MMF toxicity may manifest as severe oral ulcerations, and MMF withdrawal results in resolution of these lesions. However, further studies are needed to clarify whether an unknown factor, such as a virus, is also involved in their pathogenesis.
Biological Factors in Modeling: Species Comparisons

Data were obtained from the literature for gonad and body weights and for the Pu or Ce content of the gonads and body at death for several laboratory animal species, five human Pu injection cases, and 731 human adults exposed environmentally to Pu in fallout. Data for Pu concentration in gonads, liver, and bone samples of 59 male and five female occupational Pu cases (including four completely analyzed whole bodies) were obtained from the U. S. Transuranium Registry. A logarithmic function was used to relate fractional Pu or Ce concentration in testes and ovaries to body weight of the animals and to predict fractional Pu or Ce concentrations in human gonads, [Pule PUB' = aBWb, where [Pul~ or [CelG is the nuclide concentration in gonads (Bq g-' of wet weight), Pun or CeB is the nuclide content of the body at death, and BW is body weight (kg). The fractional Pu and Ce concentrations in both the testes and ovaries are inverse and nearly linear functions of body weight. The regression lines of fractional Pu or Ce concentration in testes and ovaries have similar slopes (b = -1.07 k 0.14); however, the nuclide concentrations (coefficient a ) in ovaries are six times greater than in testes. Extrapolation of the animal data yielded fractional Pu concentrations in human testes and ovaries that agree with those calculated for the occupational cases and those recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection. The good agreement between the fractional concentrations of Pu and Ce in the testes and in the ovaries suggests that these data can be substituted in metabolic models of chemically similar elements for which gonadal data are
Paper CONVERSION COEFFICIENTS BASED ON THE VIP-MAN ANATOMICAL MODEL AND EGS4-VLSI CODE FOR EXTERNAL MONOENERGETIC PHOTONS FROM 10 keV TO 10 MeV

A new set of conversion coefficients from kerma free-in-air to absorbed dose and kerma free-in-air to “effective VIP-Man dose” has been calculated for external monoenergetic photon beams from 10 keV to 10 MeV using an imagebased whole-body anatomical model. This model, called VIPMan, was recently developed at Rensselaer from the highresolution color images of the National Library of Medicine’s Visible Human Project. An EGS4-based Monte Carlo user code, named EGS4-VLSI, was developed to efficiently process the extremely large image data in VIP-Man. Irradiation conditions include anterior-posterior, posterior-anterior, right lateral, left lateral, rotational, and isotropic geometries. Conversion coefficients from this study are compared with those obtained from two mathematical models, ADAM and EVA. “Effective VIP-Man doses” differ from the previously reported effective dose results by 10%–50% for photons between 100 keV and 10 MeV. Discrepancies are more significant at lower energies and for individual organ doses. Since VIP-Man is a realistic model that contains several tissues that were not previously defined well (or not available) in other models, the reported results offer an opportunity to improve the existing dosimetric data and the mathematical models.

THE REGRESSION EFFECT AS A CAUSE OF THE NONLINEAR CONCENTRATION MEASUREMENTS RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SHORT- AND LONG-TERM RADON

The relationship between four-day charcoal canister radon measurements and year-long alpha-track detector measurements in 983 New Jersey homes has been recently examined by others. The ratio of canister measurement to long-term measurement for the homes in the survey, a common parameter of interest, was found to increase as the canister measurement increased. The examination presented considerable discussion of the variation of the ratios as functions of various parameters. Although we did not examine the raw data used in the study, it appears that many of the results (and perhaps those in other papers) are consistent with a simple model in which both the long-term and rescaled short-term measurements provide measurements with error of the annual-average radon concentration in the home with no nonlinearity or other unusual functional dependence on radon concentration. We provide an example and discussion of this result, which is due to the widely known but frequently misunderstood phenomenon called “regression toward the mean,” or simply the “regression effect. ” This does not invalidate the work of others; we merely wish to bring attention to the fact that the results in these papers may have a very simple explanation.

Association of Standardized Patient Educators: 11th Annual Meeting

INTRODUCTION: Tracking and improving healthcare delivery has become increasingly important to medical centers. Nearly all US hospitals are involved in some form of assessing the quality of health care. Unannounced standardized patients (USPs) are standardized patients (SPs) who present cases incognito in real clinical settings. USPs are increasingly being considered the gold standard for quality assessment in real medical practice settings. In the fall of 2011, we completed a project using USPs to assess and improve outpatient healthcare delivery.
URANIUM WORKERS AND UNEXPOSED CONTROLS

Volume and uranium content were determined in individual urine voids over a 76-h (3.25-d) period from six unexposed normal male subjects and three male uranium workers. Uranium analyses were accomplished by a newly developed high-precision kinetic phosphorescence analysis technique with a lower level of detection of 0.007 ng mL-’. Urinary uranium concentrations in individual voids varied by a factor of 2 or less for any one unexposed subject, although there was an order of magnitude variation among the group of unexposed men. The fractional urinary volume excreted in the “standard” so-called simulated 24-h sample was the same for both the unexposed and exposed groups and averaged 0.42 f 0.13 of the total daily urine volume. The fraction of uranium in the simulated 24-h samples was 0.43 2 0.15 in the unexposed group but only 0.31 f 0.13 in the uranium worker group, suggesting that the use of the simulated 24-h urine sample would underestimate the total daily urinary uranium output by approximately a factor of 2 in the uranium workers. Daily urinary excretion relative to intake from drinking water (essentially equal to the gastrointestinal uptake fraction) among the unexposed group ranged from 0.0024. 028, averaging 0.011 2 0.008, with an indication that the gastrointestinal uptake factor was inversely proportional to total intake via drinking water.

A New Technique of Segmental Spinal Fixation of the Thoracic Spine or in the Treatment of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Study Design. Segmental fixation is the preferred technique for the surgical treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Sublaminar wiring is a widely used, strong type of segmental fixation. The most common drawback of the sublaminar wiring is the risk of neurologic injury. The authors have applied subtransverse wiring for 3 years, and the technique seems promising. Objectives. To show that subtransverse wiring is a technique strong enough to correct scoliosis curves and does not carry neurologic injury risks. Summary of Background Data. Sublaminar wiring is a commonly used fixation method for posterior fusion in the treatment of scoliosis. Because of its associated risk of neurologic injury, it is mostly recommended for long neuromuscular curves. Methods. The authors used the subtransverse wiring technique in 12 cases of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and followed them for an average of 22 months. Results. The average correction rate was 65%, and correction loss at the end of the follow-up period was 5°. No neurologic complications were encountered. Conclusions. Subtransverse wiring is strong enough to correct scoliotic curves. It requires less operative time and skill and is neurologically safe. [
IMPEDANCE METHOD COMPUTATION OF INDUCED CURRENTS IN A SIMPLE MODEL OF A CHILD EXPOSED TO ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS OF AN ELECTRIC BLANKET

The three dimensional impedance method has been used to calculate the distribution of induced current densities in a simple model of an 8-y-old child exposed to the electric and magnetic fields of an electric blanket. Two types of electric blankets have been modeled in the calculations, the pre-1989 conventional type and the presently available low magnetic field PTC (positive temperature coefficient) electric blanket. The purpose of this study was to calculate and compare the induced current densities in the model of the child due to the two types of blankets and also to compare the contributions to the induced currents by the electric and magnetic fields produced by the two types of blankets. The computations have shown that as expected and claimed, the induced current density in the model of the child due to the magnetic field of the low magnetic field PTC electric blanket is much lower than the induced current density due to the magnetic field of the conventional electric blanket. However, the computations have also shown that the contribution to the total current density by the electric field of the low magnetic field electric blanket is slightly higher than that due to the electric field of the conventional electric blanket. Hence, the total average induced current density due to both the electric and magnetic fields in the case of the low magnetic field PTC electric blanket is about one-third that in the case of the conventional electric blanket.

Microwave Biological Egects and Safety Issues

Seventeen radar mechanics and engineers and 12 unexposed referents were examined, using extensive neurological, psychometric and neuropsychiatric techniques to determine whether there were any indications of central nervous system effects of microwave exposure. Pathological neurological findings were not more common in the exposed group than among the referents. In addition, the psychometric tests and the psychiatric rating scales did not reveal any statistically significant adverse effects of microwave exposure. The frequency of the occurrence of an increased protein band with an isoelectric point of 4.5 in the cerebrospinal fluid was higher among the men exposed to microwaves than among the referents. The nature and clinical significance of this or these proteins are still unclear. The time derivative of the magnetic flux density close to some of the transmitter units was surprisingly high (up to 350 T s -I ) .
SSC200120 34..36

S uccessful throwers are strong and powerful, and a sound strength training program is essential to build the physical traits they need to excel in the sport (6). In my 20-year coaching career, I have sought the training/competitive edge by developing specific throwing strength. Training to improve throwing strength that is specific to the technical positions in the throw can only be accomplished by incorporating special strength work into the strength and conditioning program of the thrower.
