Functional Outcome after Direct Anterior Approach Total Hip Arthroplasty (DAA-THA) for Coxa Profunda and Protrusio Acetabuli-A Retrospective Study.

The direct anterior approach (DAA) is a recognized technique for total hip arthroplasty (THA) that spares soft tissue. Functional and clinical outcomes following THA via the DAA in patients with complex acetabular deformities, specifically coxa profunda (CP) and protrusio acetabuli (PA), have yet to be determined. : A retrospective analysis was conducted on 188 primary THA cases, including 100 CP hips and 88 PA hips, performed via the DAA.

Five New Tamarixetin Glycosides from Griseb. Including Some Substituted with the Rare 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric Acid and Their Collagenase Inhibitory Effects In Vitro.

Along with the known kaempferol-3--α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[6--(3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl)]-β-d-galactopyranoside (), five new flavonoids, containing the rarely isolated aglycon tamarixetin, were isolated from a methanolic extract of the endemic Balkan species Griseb. Three of the new compounds are substituted with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl residue (HMG), untypical for the genus . The compounds were identified as tamarixetin-3--α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[6--(3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl)]-β-d-galactopyranoside (), tamarixetin-3--(2,6-di--α-l-rhamnopyranosyl)-β-d-galactopyranoside (), tamarixetin 3--β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-d-galactopyranoside (), tamarixetin-3--β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1 → 2)-[6--(3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl)]-β-d-galactopyranoside (), and tamarixetin-3--β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1 → 2)-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 6)]-β-d-galactopyranoside ().

The Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) as a Standard Approach for Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) in Coxa Profunda and Protrusio Acetabuli? A Radiographic Analysis of 188 Cases.

Introduction: The direct anterior approach (DAA) represents a well-recognized soft tissue sparing technique for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). The feasibility and suitability of the DAA in cases of complex acetabular deformities, namely coxa profunda (CP) and protrusio acetabuli (PA), remain to be determined.

Methods: A total of 188 cases of CP (100 cases) and PA (88 cases) hips undergoing primary THA via the DAA were retrospectively analyzed.

Multiple In vitro biological effects of phenolic compounds from Morus alba root bark.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Morus alba L. is used in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of various diseases, including bacterial infections and inflammation. As a rich source of phenolic compounds, the plant is an object of many phytochemical and pharmacological studies.

Flavonoid Glycosides from Endemic Bulgarian (Ivanisch.).

is a very interesting plant genus, well-known for its content of flavonoids, triterpenes and polysaccharides. Its secondary metabolites are described as biologically active compounds showing several activities, e.g.

[Our experience on the effect of complex treatment with gordox in patients with acute and chronic-recurrent pancreatitis].

Aims: In this retrospective trial we assess how acute pancreatitis patients respond to nonoperative therapy; operative methods and results after surgery for acute and chronic-recurrent pancreatitis.

Methods: We present 738 acute pancreatitis patients, treated from 1991 to 2001 in our clinic. In all cases we start a nonoperative therapy comprising losses replacement, analgesics (including narcotic ones), spasmolytics, antibiotics, protease inhibitors-Contrical or Gordox (only during 1997 and 1998) and/or somatostatine (Sandostatin), H2-blockers, naso-gastric tube.
