It is typically caused by continuous spontaneous leakage of spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), resulting in orthostatic headaches. However, the appropriate management of refractory SIH remains unclear. A 50-year-old man presented with orthostatic headache followed by a rapid decline in mental status. The imaging findings were consistent with the diagnosis of SIH, with bilateral cerebral subdural hematomas and abnormal fluid collection in the posterior epidural space from the T2 to T12 levels. Computed tomography myelography of the whole spine revealed multiple high-flow CSF leakages at the T6 to T8 levels. Despite treatment with bilateral burr hole drainage for subdural hematomas and repeated lumbar epidural blood patch (EBP) three times, the patient's condition worsened and he developed stupor. A lumbar intrathecal saline bolus (90 ml) was administered to restore CSF depletion. The patient's verbal function improved immediately, and continuous intrathecal saline infusion was administered at a rate of 10 ml/h for two days. The patient's stupor gradually resolved, and after his symptoms improved, the EBP injection was repeated at the T8 level. The patient recovered completely, and during the six-year follow-up, there were no signs of recurrence. SIH may cause a refractory decline in mental status, and lumbar intrathecal saline infusion may help arrest or reverse an impending central (transtentorial) herniation. This case demonstrates an appropriate bolus and continuous infusion of normal saline, and documents the resolution of SIH. This maneuver may change the CSF flow pattern and aims to seal the CSF fistula. Further studies are needed to better understand the mechanism of intrathecal saline infusion and establish effective treatment strategies for refractory cases of SIH.</p>","PeriodicalId":51650,"journal":{"name":"BioMedicine-Taiwan","volume":"13 4","pages":"51-56"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10962535/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140295233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods : The agar well diffusion and broth microdilution methods were used to evaluate the antibacterial effect of henna extracts. Dimethyl sulfoxide was used to prepare the ethanol extract of henna, and distilled water was used to prepare the water extract. For both ethanol and water extracts, 4 different concentrations were prepared as 15, 30, 60, and 120 mg/mL. Results : It was determined that the water and ethanol extracts of the henna samples did not show an inhibition zone on P.gingivalis and A.actinomycetemcomitans. As a result of the evaluations made with the broth microdilution method, it was found that the ethanol extract had a higher inhibitory effect on both bacteria, and both extracts had more inhibitory effects against A.actinomycetemcomitans.

Preconditioning of MSC in low oxygen concentration has been shown to affect the therapeutic potential of these cells. This study aimed to compare the characteristic and secretion of trophic factors of MSCs cultured under hypoxia and normoxia. Methods : MSCs were isolated from Wharton ' s jelly of human umbilical cord (UC) tissue by explant method and characterized by fl ow cytometry. Following 24 h of CoCl 2 -induced hypoxic culture, the viability and metabolic activity of MSC were analyzed by trypan blue exclusion test and methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, respectively. The secretion of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was assessed in conditioned medium using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Results : Flow cytometry analysis showed > 99% of the population of MSCs cells were positive for CD73 and CD90 and > 62% were positive for CD105. While the cell viability of MSC was not affected by hypoxic cultured condition, the metabolic activity rate of these cells was decreased under hypoxic conditioning. In line with reduced metabolic activity, hypoxic human UC-derived MSC produced less HGF than normoxic counterpart. Compared to normoxic MSC, hypoxic preconditioned MSC secreted higher level of VEGF in the conditioned medium (p < 0.05). Conclusions : Hypoxia decreased the metabolic activity of MSCs associated with the modulation of HGF and VEGF secretions. It is suggested that hypoxia may also affect the therapeutic capacity of MSC cells.","PeriodicalId":51650,"journal":{"name":"BioMedicine-Taiwan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45122123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are hormone-dependent tumours, and estrogen will promote their development. It has been found that estrogen levels and cholesterol levels are inversely associated.  Few studies have shown no relation between lipid profile and leiomyoma, but few studies suggested a positive correlation. The lipid profile of patients with uterine fibroids (the case group) and women without fibroids (the control group) is compared in the current study.\u0000 \u0000Materials and Methods: The case-control study included fifty subjects between 20 to 40 years. Twenty-five serum samples collected from women without evidence of leiomyoma were considered the control group. Twenty-five cases were admitted with various symptoms, diagnosed and confirmed as leiomyoma on histopathology.\u0000 \u0000Results: There was a substantial difference in Total Cholesterol (TC) and Low-Density Lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels between patients with leiomyoma and healthy people.  With a p-value of 0.04, the TC, LDL-C level in leiomyoma patients was substantially lower than that of healthy individuals in the general population. The levels of triglycerides, High-Density Lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and Very Low-Density Lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C) were comparable across the case and control groups, though.\u0000 \u0000Conclusion: According to the study's findings, patients with leiomyoma have lower serum TC and LDL-C levels than healthy controls. This could be linked to patients with leiomyomas having higher estrogen levels. As a result, lipid profile variables like TC and LDL-C may be accurate indicators of leiomyoma. These findings point to the possibility of blood plasma lipid profiling for the non-invasive diagnosis of fibroids.","PeriodicalId":51650,"journal":{"name":"BioMedicine-Taiwan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47560798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Her sensorium gradually declined and became comatose. She was on Methotrexate, folic acid and prednisolone for her rheumatoid arthritis. The neurological examination and neuroimaging did not contribute in making the diagnosis. It is challenging to diagnose a metabolic cause of coma. Once diagnosis is established, the management becomes easier. On detailed investigation, she was found to have severe hypercalcemia with corrected serum calcium level being 18.2 mg%. Serum vitamin D level was also high, 150 ng/ml. On probing for detailed history, it was revealed that she had been taking a weekly dose of 60,000 IU of vitamin D for nearly 5 years. In recent times, association of various diseases has been reported with vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D supplementation seems justified in this patient considering her age and the fact that she had rheumatoid arthritis; she was also taking corticosteroid. The recommended dose of vitamin D has been 400–800 IU/day. However, it is often prescribed at a dose of 60,000 IU/week, and sometimes patients self-medicate. There are no guidelines available for prescribing vitamin D at such a strength. Though safety of vitamin D has been established, vitamin D toxicity can occur sporadically with serious consequences. This was managed with intravenous fluids and diuretics. The patient also required subcutaneous calcitonin and low dose of corticosteroid, in addition to a session of haemodialysis for her hypercalcemia.
