Filter by:The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of pulsed dye laser on managing scar vascularity and thickness.
Botulinum toxins has been approved by the FDA to treat chronic migraine. Botox had been shown to inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators and peripheral neurotransmitters from sensory nerve to treat neuropathic pain. In the clinical practice, botox indeed effect in scar pain. However, investigators need well controlled study to prove this finding and assess the improvement of scar appearance.
To demonstrate the efficacy of ranolazine in improving coronary microvascular and diastolic dysfunction in patients affected by HCM evaluating changes in maximum (i.e. during dipyridamole-induced coronary vasodilatation) myocardial blood flow (MBF) measured by PET at baseline and after 4 months of treatment with ranolazine in patients with non obstructive HCM.
Hypertrophic burn scars are experienced by more than 70% of burn victims. They are a major source of decreased quality of life in burn patients due to pain, decreased range of motion, and poor cosmetic appearance. Current treatment strategies (including fat grafting and laser resurfacing) are either highly invasive, prohibitively costly, or painful. Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) does not require anesthesia, and is an inexpensive, safe, fast, and less painful alternative that has been recognized for its role in reducing scars associated with acne, among other things. While PRP has not been studied specifically in burn scars, there is sufficient theoretical and practical evidence that it will improve the appearance and feel of these debilitating scars, representing a large potential benefit for these patients with minimal associated risk.
Patients with advanced LVH and HFpEF will be randomly assigned in open-label fashion to receive LCZ696 titrated to 200 mg twice daily or valsartan titrated to 160 mg twice daily, and will be treated for 24 weeks.
This randomized clinical study aimed to compare the outcomes of the laser-assisted frenectomy with and without topical hyaluronic acid application to evaluate the effect of HA on secondary wound healing after frenectomy surgery. The study included a total of sytemically healthy 40 patients , with high labial frenulum attachment requiring frenectomy. Following laser-assisted frenectomy operation HA gel was applied to the wound surface in the test group, and no application was made to the control group The HA application was made topically to completely cover the surgical area on days 3, 7, and 14 postoperatively. Photographs of the operation area were taken on days 3, 7, and 14. The changes in the area measurements between the digital images according to the healing periods were calculated on a computer. according to Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate Patient comfort and pain levels.
Chronic resistance training has been shown to increase muscle cross-sectional area, volume and strength. Individuals participating in a resistance training program may wish to consume protein supplements to aid recovery and maximise adaptation. Furthermore, antioxidants have been shown to aid recovery from acute bouts of exercise. However, the effect of antioxidants combined with protein on long term-training adaptation is not fully understood. This study will combine measures of muscle size, muscle strength and function, and the underlying changes in muscle metabolism in order to assess the effect of consuming a combined protein-antioxidant supplement during a 30 session resistance training program.
Because of the diversity of the studies and deficiency of those comparing various techniques of EEP for treatment of LUTs secondary to BPO in patients with large sized prostate, we aim in this study at testing the non-inferiority of PKEP and ThuLEP to HoLEP in relieving LUTs secondary to BPO in patients prostate size >80ml. Our hypothesis is to present an evidence that enucleation is a technique rather than a power dependent procedure through a RCT.
Objective of the study: to evaluate whether alfieri technique improves clinical and hemodynamic results compared to transaortic mitral valve secondary cord cutting in patients scheduled to septal myectomy for severely symptomatic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
Lidocaine is widely available and is a very commonly used local anesthetic. When administered intravenously, lidocaine infusions have anti-inflammatory effects and have significantly decreased the reliance on opioid use for adequate pain management in adult abdominal and spine surgeries. A major advantage of lidocaine infusion is that it is not associated with a significant side effect profile.The role of lidocaine in pediatric acute perioperative pain remains limited.
