The kidney biopsy revealed thrombotic microangiopathy. Anticentromere, anti-Scl-70, and antiribonucleic acid polymerase III antibodies, drawn after 4 sessions of TP, were not detected. CONCLUSIONS Here we report a rare case of ssSSc with renal crisis in a patient who presented with acute renal failure requiring hemodialysis and suspected pulmonary hemorrhage. Clinical improvement was achieved by TP and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. The diagnosis of ssSSc was difficult and required an ANA pattern and kidney biopsy.BACKGROUND With the aging of the world's population, the incidence of osteoporosis (OP) has become a public health problem of worldwide concern. Research shows that icariin may have a therapeutic effect on OP. MATERIAL AND METHODS PharmMapper was utilized to predict the potential targets of icariin. GeneCards and Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) were used for the collection of OP genes. The STRING database was utilized to obtain the protein-protein interaction (PPI) data. We used Cytoscape 3.7.2 to construct and analyze the networks. The genes and targets in the networks were input into the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) to undergo Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analysis. Finally, animal experiments were performed to verify the prediction results of this study. RESULTS A total of 297 icariin potential targets and 262 OP genes were obtained, and an icariin-OP PPI network was constructed and analyzed. The results of the GO enrichment analysis showed that icariin can regulate the steroid hormone-mediated signaling pathway, skeletal system development, extracellular space, cytosol, and steroid hormone receptor activity. The results of the pathway enrichment analysis showed that icariin can regulate osteoclast differentiation, FoxO, estrogen, and PPAR signaling pathways. The results of the experiments showed that icariin can increase estradiol, ß-catenin, and Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor-к B Ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) ratio in postmenopausal OP rats (P less then 0.05). CONCLUSIONS This research found that the icariin can regulate OP-related biological processes, cell components, molecular functions, and signaling pathways. Tourniquets are a critical tool in the immediate response to life-threatening extremity hemorrhage; however, the optimal tourniquet type and effectiveness of noncommercial devices remain unclear. Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy of five tourniquets in a perfused-cadaver model. This prospective study used a perfused-cadaver model with standardized superficial femoral artery injury bleeding at 700 mL/min. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/forskolin.html Five tourniquets were tested combat application tourniquet; rapid application tourniquet system; Stretch, Wrap, And Tuck Tourniquet; an improvised triangle bandage windlass; and a leather belt. Forty-eight medical students underwent a practical hands-on demonstration of each tourniquet. Using a random number generator, they placed the tourniquets on the bleeding cadaver in random order. Time to hemostasis, time to secure devices, estimated blood loss, and difficulty rating were assessed. A one-way repeated measures analysis of variance was used to compare efficacy between the tourniquets in achieving tbe an effective bridge to definitive care. Four of five tourniquets evaluated, including both noncommercial devices, effectively achieved hemostasis. A standard leather belt was the fastest to place and was able to stop the bleeding. However, it required continuous pressure to maintain hemostasis. The improvised windlass was as effective as the commercial devices and was the easiest to apply. In an emergency setting where commercial devices are not available, improvised tourniquets may be an effective bridge to definitive care. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and hemorrhage remain the leading causes of death after trauma. We have previously shown that a dose of valproic acid (VPA) at (150 mg/kg) can decrease brain lesion size and hasten neurologic recovery. The current Food and Drug Administration-approved dose of VPA is 60 mg/kg. We evaluate neurologic outcomes and brain lesion size of a single dose of VPA at a level currently within Food and Drug Administration-approved dose in swine subjected to TBI and hemorrhagic shock. Swine (n = 5/group) were subjected to TBI and 40% blood volume hemorrhage. Animals remained in shock for 2 hours before randomization to normal saline (NS) resuscitation alone (control), NS-VPA 150 mg/kg (VPA 150), or NS-VPA 50 mg/kg (VPA 50). Neurologic severity scores (range, 0-32) were assessed daily for 14 days, and brain lesion size was measured via magnetic resonance imaging on postinjury day (PID) 3. Shock severity and laboratory values were similar in all groups. Valproic acid-treated animals demonstrated significantly less neurologic impairment on PID 1 and returned to baseline faster (PID 1 mean neurologic severity score, control = 22 ± 3 vs. VPA 150 mg/kg = 8 ± 7 or VPA 50 mg/kg = 6 ± 6; p = 0.02 and 0.003). Valproic acid-treated animals had significantly smaller brain lesion sizes (mean volume in mm3, control = 1,268.0 ± 241.2 vs. VPA 150 mg/kg = 620.4 ± 328.0 or VPA 50 mg/kg = 438.6 ± 234.8; p = 0.007 and 0.001). In swine subjected to TBI and hemorrhagic shock, VPA treatment, in a dose that is approved for clinical use, decreases brain lesion size and reduces neurologic impairment compared with resuscitation alone. In swine subjected to TBI and hemorrhagic shock, VPA treatment, in a dose that is approved for clinical use, decreases brain lesion size and reduces neurologic impairment compared with resuscitation alone. Observational multicenter study. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in pain during sexual activity after surgery for lumbar disc herniation (LDH). There are limited data available on sexual function in patients undergoing surgery for LDH. Data were retrieved from the Norwegian Registry for Spine Surgery. The primary outcome was change in pain during sexual activity at one year, assessed by item number eight of the Oswestry disability index (ODI) questionnaire. Secondary outcome measures included ODI, EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D), and numeric rating scale (NRS) scores for back and leg pain. Among the 18,529 patients included, 12,103 (64.8%) completed 1-year follow-up. At baseline, 16,729 patients (90.3%) provided information about pain during sexual activity, whereas 11,130 (92.0%) among those with complete follow-up completed this item. Preoperatively 2586 of 16,729 patients (15.5%) reported that pain did not affect sexual activity and at 1 year, 7251 of 11,130 patients (65.1%) reported a normal sex-life without pain.
