Is there a renal protective role for gelsolin treatment in crush syndrome? An experimental study.

Background: This study aims to investigate the impact of combining crush fluid resuscitation with gelsolin treatment on renal function in a rat model of crush syndrome.

Methods: Twenty-four adult female Wistar albino rats were randomly assigned to one of three groups for crush syndrome treat-ment: Control (C) group, gelsolin + crush fluid (gel) group, and crush fluid only (CF) group, each containing eight rats. Sedated rats underwent unilateral hind limb compression of 2 kg using a compression device, maintained for five hours.

Importance of qSOFA Score in Terms of Prognosis and Mortality in Critical Care Patients.

Background: Recent studies have analyzed the qSOFA (quick sequential organ failure assessment) score as a prognostic indicator in many diseases, particularly sepsis. However, the effect of qSOFA score on prognosis and mortality in critical care patients has not been sufficiently analyzed. There is not enough data, especially regarding its use as critical care mortality and prognosis scoring.

A comparison of double single suture-button fixation, suture-button fixation, and screw fixation for ankle syndesmosis injury: A retrospective cohort study.

Different methods have been used throughout the years for syndesmotic injury but there is no consensus on the ideal treatment. Some methods are expensive and some have more complications. The aim of this study is to compare single suture endobutton with double suture endobutton and screw fixation for syndesmotic injury.
