Comparison between Protocols for Management of Fetal Growth Restriction

Abstract This comprehensive review compares clinical protocols of important entities regarding the management of fetal growth restriction (FGR), published since 2015. Five protocols were chosen for data extraction. There were no relevant differences regarding the diagnosis and classification of FGR betwe...

Effects of regular physical exercise on skin blood flow and cardiovascular risk factors in overweight and obese subjects

Objective: it is well known that low omentin levels and reduced bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO) are outgrowth of obesity. Besides, in obese subjects, microvascular dysfunction can be an initial stage of cardiovascular diseases. This situation can be evaluated with skin laser–Doppler flowmetry (LDF...

Antilipoperoxidative and anti-inflammatory efficacy of multifunctional sunscreens containing ferulic acid

Unprotected chronic exposure to ultraviolet radiation generates many harmful effects to human skin and UV filters are essential to health, however, traditional sunscreens do not provide enough protection against cutaneous oxidative stress, a process amplified by UV radiation. Therefore, is been proposed ...

Laser doppler flowmetry as a method of analysis for the evaluation of chemo - induced oral mucositis: a pilot study

J. oral res. (Impresa); 9 (5), 2020
Background: Oral mucositis (OM) is an inflammation of the oral mucosa due to cancer therapy that compromises the patient’s quality of life. Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) is a non-invasive method to monitor microvascular blood flow (BF) in real-time. Purpose: Develop a method to evaluate BF in the genia...

Ecografía doppler de la arteria pulmonar como indicador de madurez pulmonar fetal, Cuenca – Ecuador

Introducción: la flujometría de la arteria pulmonar en fetos sanos puede ser un estudio predictor de la madurez pulmonar, lo que conlleva a un impacto en la disminución de la mortalidad perinatal.Objetivo: establecer el índice de tiempo de aceleración/tiempo de eyección d...

Microcirculation changes in gingival tissue after ultrasonic tooth preparation in beagle dogs

J. appl. oral sci; 28 (), 2020
Abstract Ultrasonic wave technology is widely used during dental treatments. We previously demonstrated that this method protects the gingival tissue. However, the physiological change on the gingival microvasculature caused by this method remains unclear. Objective The aim of this study was to investi...

Effect of short-term ischemia on microcirculation and wound healing of adipocutaneous flaps in the rat

Acta cir. bras; 34 (12), 2019
Abstract Purpose Composite flaps used in reconstructive surgery may intra- and postoperatively suffer from hypoperfusion and/or ischemia-reperfusion influencing wound healing. We aimed to follow-up the effect of ischemia on adipocutaneous flaps' wound healing and microcirculation. Methods In anesthet...

Zika vírus e gravidez: achados fetais avaliados pelo ultrassom e doppler e sua associação com o desfecho perinatal
Zika virus and pregnancy: fetal findings assessed by ultrasound and doppler and their association with perinatal outcome

A infecção congênita pelo vírus Zika (ICZ) produz um amplo espectro de complicações perinatais, destacando-se as anomalias estruturais. A associação de achados ultrassonográficos pré-natais (USO) com outros desfechos perinatais adversos, não foi descrita até o momento. Identificamos também u...

Flujometría doppler como predictor de la restricción del crecimiento intrauterino
Doppler flowmetry as a predictor of intrauterine growth restriction

Rev. medica electron; 40 (6), 2018
RESUMEN El bajo peso al nacer representa en la actualidad uno de los problemas prioritarios de salud a nivel mundial, que aumenta el riesgo de morbimortalidad. Cuba presenta cifras bajas de bajo peso al nacer lo que la ubica entre los cinco países con indicadores más bajos a nivel mundial, pero a pesar...
