Effect of hyperbaric oxygen treatment on ischaemia-reperfusion injury in rats detorsioned after experimental ovarian torsion.

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate whether hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) could ameliorate ischaemia-reperfusion injury in a rat model of ovarian torsion-detorsion.

Methods: Twenty-seven rats were divided among four groups: surgical sham rats (S) (n = 6) underwent identical anaesthesia and surgical incisions to other groups (n = 7 per group) but with no ovary intervention; torsion rats (T) underwent laparotomy, ovarian torsion, relaparotomy and sacrifice after three hours; torsion and detorsion rats (T/DT) underwent laparotomy, ovarian torsion (three hours), relaparotomy and detorsion, and sacrifice after one week; torsion, detorsion, hyperbaric oxygen rats (T/DT/HBOT) underwent laparotomy, ovarian torsion, relaparotomy and detorsion, and sacrifice after one week during which HBOT was provided 21 times (100% oxygen at 600 kPa for 50 min). In all groups blood collection for markers of oxidative stress or related responses, and ovary collection for histology were performed after sacrifice.

Comparison of surgical techniques used for prevention of neuroma in order to make more clear the role of the epineurium. An experimental study.

Aim: Several studies have been conducted for the prevention of neuroma and recently published experimental studies include interventions on epineurium. The techniques which include interventions on epinerium were compared to reveal the role of epinurium in neuroma prevention.

Material E Methods: 55 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five groups.

The effect of platelet-rich fibrin on wound healing following strabismus surgery.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on post-operative wound healing following strabismus surgery in a rabbit model.

Methods: Nine New Zealand white rabbits were involved in the study. One of these nine rabbits was kept in control without having any operation.

Trimetazidine has Promising Preventive Effects on Experimental Chronic Pancreatitis Rat Model.

Background: It was aimed to evaluate the preventive efficacy of trimetazidine in an experimental chronic pancreatitis rat model.

Methods: Chronic pancreatitis model was accomplished with caerulein and alcohol administration. In the study, 40 female Sprague Dawley rats were randomized into 5 groups containing 8 animals in each.
