© 2020 American Academy of Sleep Medicine.BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is thought to be associated with dyslipidemia. However, differences concerning dyslipidemia during rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM (NREM) sleep have yet to be determined. OBJECTIVES This study was designed to explore the association between lipid profiles and OSA during REM or NREM sleep. METHODS This is a clinical cohort. A total of 2,619 participants with at least 30 min of REM sleep were included. Sleep variables and fasting lipid profiles [total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein (apo)A-I, apoB, apoE, and lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a))] were obtained from each subject. Apnea-hypopnea indices (AHIs) in REM and NREM sleep (AHIREM and AHINREM, respectively) were recorded. Linear regression analysis was used to assess the associations of AHIREM and AHINREM with lipid profiles. RESULTS When stratified by the AHIREM severity of OSA, all demographics, clinical variables, and sleep parameters differed between the groups except for apoA-I. In fully adjusted multivariate linear regression models, AHIREM was independently associated with increasing levels of TG, HDL-C, and apoE (p = 0.04, p = 0.01 and p = 0.01, respectively). AHINREM was independently associated with increasing levels of TC, TG, LDL and apoB, and lower level of HDL-C (all p 0.05), while AHINREM was associated with elevated TC, LDL-C, and apoB (p = 0.03, p = 0.01 and p = 0.01, respectively). CONCLUSION AHINREM was independently associated with the greatest alterations in serum lipids, including TC, LDL-C, and apoB. © 2020 American Academy of Sleep Medicine.This retrospective study, of a single surgeon's experience, evaluates the role of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) for total thyroidectomy, in a low-volume district general hospital. 128 patients with normal preoperative vocal fold function underwent thyroid surgery with routine use of nerve monitoring. Patients were followed for 6 months after surgery, and postoperative Romanerve function was determined by fiberoptic laryngoscopy. One (0,8%) patient was found to have a unilateral vocal fold paralysis, but after 6 months this patient had regained vocal fold motion. The technique of intraoperative neuromonitoring in thyroid surgery is safe and reliable in excluding postoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy; it has high accuracy, specificity, sensitivity and negative predictive value. Neuromonitoring is useful to identify the recurrent laryngeal nerve and it can be a useful adjunctive technique for reassuring surgeons of the functional integrity of the nerve. Its application can be particularly recommended for low-volume thyroid operation centres.The treatment of incisional hernias, especially those that are multiple or recurring, has always represented important challenges for surgeons. An incisional hernia is a mechanical damage of the abdominal wall that can result in respiratory problems and alterations of splanchnic circulation, especially when in large size hernias. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/actinomycin-d.html The increasing availability of prostheses with greater resistance Romato infections and tension, lightness, biocompatibility, and reduced visceral adhesions has improved outcomes and minimized relapses. It is still important, however, to carefully choose the type of prosthesis and surgical technique, whether laparotomic or laparoscopic, correlated to the positioning site of the prosthesis. In this observational study we report the results and outcomes of 50 patients surgically treated for incisional hernia in our hospital. The surgical technique used to repair the hernias was laparoscopic with the use of the Ventralight Echo PS. This prosthesis is equipped with a comfortable and innovative pneumatic system that facilitates its positioning during surgery. In our experience, it has brought undeniable advantages for the treatment of incisional hernias and for all patients with parietal defects who could benefit from laparoscopic treatment.Negative Pressure Wound Therapy with instillation therapy and dwelling time (NPWTid) represents a good tool to treat severely infected non-healing wounds. This topical treatment consists of negative pressure and retrograde instillation of antiseptic/antibiotic Romasolutions into the wound surface, to promote cleansing and consequently the healing process. We reported our initial experience (five cases) in the treatment of severely infected diabetic foot, that can be considered a life-threatening condition. In our case reports, patients presented with clinical signs and symptoms of severe sepsis. Our treatment based on multidisciplinary approach (surgical, NPWTid, interventional radiology, skin grafts) had satisfying results. NPWT represented an important support to treatment of these diabetic patients.Skin ulcers represent a common complication of sickle cell disease, especially in homozygous forms, with multifactorial pathogenetic mechanisms and frequent location at lower extremities; more specifically perimalleolar areas are favourite location because of a chronic microvascular disturbance and capillary stasis in a district with low fatty tissue. Chronicization and recurrence of unhealable lesions significantly have a high impact on quality of life of these patients in terms of pain management and psycho-physical dysfuncRomation. When we deal with a chronic ulcer, as it often happens in patients affected by hemoglobinopathies, the key-point is to make the skin lesion healable and vital by reactivating blocked repair process. Although it's controversial topic, patterns of patients with higher HbF concentrations might be more protective in accordance with reduced HbS polymerization; indeed, clinical features of ulcer represent the best predictors suggesting the correct strategy to achieve a good final outcome. Hereafter we report the case of a young woman with skin complications secondary to drepanocytosis, in which an interlinked reparative model consisting of surgery and advanced medications in addition to an adequate transfusional support, especially in earlier phases, has allowed to achieve clinical success after several years of care failure.
