Abstract
Acute phosphate nephropathy is a rare, but serious adverse event associated with the use of sodium phosphate for bowel cleansing. It may lead to permanent renal impairment and a need for dialysis. The aetiology is hyperphosphataemia caused by intestinal absorption of the cleanser. Risk factors inclu...

Abstract
We describe a technique of irrigating and thereby rapidly and effectively clearing the cornea of relatively large amounts of surface contaminants that reduce surgical visibility and may contribute to endophthalmitis. This technique is referred to as "macrowash." If the technique is required, it is u...

Abstract
There were 6.8% (68/998) of patients in the sarcoidosis clinic who had SURT. The most common presenting symptom was nasal congestion (61%, 34/56). In patients who had SURT diagnosed after the initial presentation of sarcoidosis, the mean prednisone dose more than quadrupled (4 + or - 6.5 vs 18.6 + o...

We report a case of massive myiasis of the scalp with bleeding in a patient with an ulcerated squamous cell carcinoma of the scalp, haematological and colorectal malignancies. Treatment of myiasis is based on local disinfection and mechanical removal of larvae. Other options of treatment are discuss...

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) including nasal polyps is a chronic inflammatory disease involving the mucosa of the nose and one or more paranasal sinuses. Despite differing hypotheses, the cause remains poorly understood. The key issue is the maintaining of ostial patency. CRS with nasal polyps is co...

Abstract
During the 0- to 4-, 4- to 24-, and 24- to 48-hour intervals after treatment, the pain experience with the negative apical pressure device was significantly lower than when using the needle irrigation (p < 0.0001 [4, 24, 48 hours]). Between 0 and 4 and 4 and 24 hours, the intake of analgesics was si...

Abstract
Simethicone improved endoscopic visibility by diminishing mean cumulative (6.83 +/- 2.4 vs. 11.05 +/- 2.6, p < 0.001) and local scores offoam and bubbles at all areas, and decreased the number and timing ofadjunctive simethicone washing (17.5% vs. 74.1%, p < 0.001 and 0 vs. 19 seconds, p < 0.001).

Abstract
The results showed no statistically significant difference in canal or isthmus cleanliness among the 4 groups, but there was a statistically significant difference (P < .001) in canal cleanliness between the 1-mm level versus the 3-mm and 5-mm levels for all of the groups.

Abstract
Very high levels of root canal cleanliness (< or = score 3) were found for each test group with activation. For the middle and apical third, the no-activation group was significantly less effective than the three other activation groups (p < 0.05). The manual-dynamic activation group (final rinse 17...

Abstract
Oscillation of the ultrasonically driven file toward the groove is more effective in removing dentin debris from the groove than oscillation perpendicular to the groove, which can be related to the fact that there is a high-velocity jet from the file tip in a single direction following the file osci...

Abstract
Pleural lavage cytology should be considered in all patients with non-small-cell lung cancer suitable for resection. A positive result is an independent predictor of adverse survival, and the impact on survival suggests that it may be appropriate to upstage patients by 1 T category.

A total of 20 patients agreed to participate in the study. At 1 week postoperatively, 50% of the bottles had positive cultures with 40% of the irrigation samples testing positive for bacteria. At two weeks, the contamination in the irrigation bottle and fluid decreased to 26.7% and 20%, respectively...

In 1984, the dissertation 'The incredible keratocyst' was published. A postscriptum of this dissertation introduced a new and simplified approach in the treatment of keratocysts. Keratocysts are disreputable for a high recurrence prevalence and the new method is minimizing the chance of recurrence....

Abstract
The use of the active deep suction decreases edema and dead space, theoretically reducing the chance of infection. It also prevents premature walling off of deeper cavities, which can occur with the use of vacuum-assisted closure therapy on superficial defects. Our method of wound management allows...

CONCLUSION: Although there were fewer cfu/mg when using the EndoVac, there was not a st...
