Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of two dosages of calcium dobesilate (500 mg vs. 1000 mg) in patients with Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) in CEAP classes C3-C4.
  • A multicenter retrospective analysis monitored patient progress over 12 months, using scores and circumference measurements to gauge improvement.
  • Results showed that the higher dosage (1000 mg) significantly improved symptom relief and reduced limb swelling compared to the lower dosage, indicating a potential benefit of using higher doses for managing advanced CVI.

Ezine cheese is a non-starter and long-ripened cheese produced in the Mount of Ida region of Çanakkale, Turkey, with a protected designation of origin status. Non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) have a substantial effect on the quality and final sensorial characteristics of long-ripened cheeses. The dominance of NSLAB can be attributed to their high tolerance to the hostile environment in cheese during ripening relative to many other microbial groups and to its ability to inhibit undesired microorganisms.

Although aortocaval fistula is mostly encountered as a complication of abdominal aortic aneurysms, it may also arise as a complication of lumbar disc surgery. Great arteriovenous shunts especially may lead to high-output heart failure in due time. In this paper, we aim to present a case of high-output heart failure secondary to aortocaval fistule caused by lumbar disc surgery.

Objective: Minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) for revascularization of the left anterior descending artery has become a routine operation. We present our clinical experiences with beating heart MIDCAB surgery performed through partial lower sternotomy (PLS) and retrospectively compare the results of pain perception as well as activities of daily life (ADL) with the conventional full sternotomy.

Methods: From January 2009 to August 2012, 197 patients underwent MIDCAB using modified PLS at our hospital.
