Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the effectiveness of different suturing techniques (non-absorbable nylon, absorbable vicryl, and fibrin glue) in nerve grafting for rats with sciatic nerve injuries.
  • Results show that both vicryl and nylon sutures improved motor function significantly more than controls, with no major differences in nerve recovery overall among the different methods.
  • The findings suggest that vicryl sutures are equally effective as nylon sutures for nerve repair, challenging the previous notion that non-absorbable sutures are superior.

Article Synopsis
  • Traumatic injury is a major global cause of suffering and death, highlighting the need for effective prehospital therapies that balance organ perfusion and blood loss.
  • Current options for damage control resuscitation (DCR) are limited, prompting research into synthetic polymers as injectable therapies that are portable and stable in tough conditions.
  • This study designs and tests a specific polymer, which shows promise by not interfering with blood coagulation and effectively resuscitating rats from severe blood loss, suggesting its potential use in trauma medicine.

Le trouble développemental de la coordination est une affection neurodéveloppementale qui touche de 5 % à 6 % des enfants d'âge scolaire. Il peut avoir des effets considérables sur le début du développement et le fonctionnement tout au long de la vie. Les données probantes appuient des interventions prometteuses, mais ce trouble continue d'être sous-estimé et sous-diagnostiqué.

Developmental coordination disorder (DCD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects 5% to 6% of school-aged children. DCD can significantly impact early development and life-long functioning. Evidence supports promising interventions for DCD, but the disorder continues to be under-recognized and under-diagnosed.
