The increase in motion at C6-C7 may suggest the potential for adjacent level effects and clinical trials should be designed to address this. The combination of a locking pedicle screw-rod system and intervertebral spacer provides an alternative solution for surgical distraction-stabilization in the canine caudal cervical spine and supports the feasibility of using this new implant system in the management of disc-associated cervical spondylomyelopathy in dogs. The increase in motion at C6-C7 may suggest the potential for adjacent level effects and clinical trials should be designed to address this. The objective was to compare computed tomography (CT)-guided thoracic sympathicolysis (CTSy) and video-assisted thoracoscopic sympathectomy (VATS) with regard to their feasibility, the occurrence of minor and major complications, and the clinical outcome. In this study, 88 patients treated by CTSy and 86 patients treated by VATS were retrospectively included. CTSy was performed after establishing the entry plane below the level of the intervertebral space T2/3 via a dorsolateral approach using a 22-G coaxial needle. On average of 5 mL of a sympathicolytic mixture was instilled. VATS was performed under intubation anesthesia. After insertion of the instruments via a minithoracotomy, the parietal pleura was dissected and the sympathetic trunk severed below T2. The interventions were performed unilaterally, the contralateral side being treated after approximately 6 weeks. All patients evaluated their sense of discomfort before treatment as well as 2 days, 6, and 12 months after, on the basis of a Dermatology Quality of Life Index and additionally the side effects that occurred. Both treatments led to a marked reduction of symptoms, whereby mild recurrent sweating occurred over the further course, significantly higher in the CTSy patient group. Chitosan oligosaccharide Short-term miosis and ptosis were rarely found in both groups. As the most common side effect, transient compensatory sweating was reported by 16/88 patients after CTSy and 10/86 patients after VATS. Pneumothoraces developed postoperatively in 7/86 cases. Temporary pain after thoracotomy was experienced by 12/86 patients. For patients with palmar hyperhidrosis, CTSy and VATS represented a minimally invasive treatment option that provided a high and largely equivalent level of benefit.

To evaluate the seroprevalence of positive markers for syphilis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) I and II, human T cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) I and II, and hepatitis B and C among women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). We conducted a retrospective analysis among patients who underwent IVF, between January 2013 and February 2016, and who had complete screening records. We analyzed 1,008 patients who underwent IVF, amounting to 2,445 cycles. Two patients (0.2%) tested positive for HIV I and II and none for HTLV I and II. Three patients (0.3%) had positive screening for syphilis, and two (0.2%) had positive hepatitis C antibody test (anti-HCV). A positive hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HbsAg) test was observed in 4 patients (0.4%), while 47 (4.7%) patients were positive for IgG antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HbC IgG), and only 1 (0.1%) was positive for IgM antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HbC IgM). The anti-HbS test was negative in 659 patients (65.3%). Only 34.7% of the patients had immunity against the Hepatitis B virus. Patients with an anti-HbS negative result were older than those with a hepatitis B test (anti-HbS) positive result (36.3 versus 34.9; < 0.001). The present study showed lower infection rates than the Brazilian ones for the diseases studied in patients undergoing IVF. Only a few patients were immunized against hepatitis B.

The evaluation of the available evidence on vertical transmission by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV)-2. An electronic search was performed on June 13, 2020 on the Embase, PubMed and Scopus databases using the following search terms ( OR OR OR OR OR ) AND ( OR OR ). The electronic search resulted in a total of 2,073 records. Titles and abstracts were reviewed by two authors (WPM, IDESB), who checked for duplicates using the pre-established criteria for screening (studies published in English without limitation regarding the date or the status of the publication). Data extraction was performed in a standardized way, and the final eligibility was assessed by reading the full text of the articles. We retrieved data regarding the delivery of the potential cases of vertical transmission, as well as the main findings and conclusions of systematic reviews. The 2,073 records were reviewed; 1,000 duplicates and 896 clearly not eligible records were excludthe gestational age at infection. Covid-19 became a pandemic, and researchers have not been able to establish a treatment algorithm. The pregnant population is also another concern for health care professionals. There are physiological changes related to pregnancy that result in different laboratory levels, radiological findings and disease progression. The goal of the present article is to determine whether the laboratory results and radiological findings were different in non-pregnant women (NPWs) of reproductive age and pregnant women (PWs) diagnosed with the Covid-19 infection. Out of 34 patients, 15 (44.11%) PWs and 19 (55.8%) NPWs were included in the study. Age, comorbidities, complaints, vitals, respiratory rates, computed tomography (CT) findings and stages, as well as laboratory parameters, were recorded from the hospital database. The mean age of the PWs was of 27.6 ± 0.99 years, and that of the NPWs was of 37.63 ± 2.00; when age was compared between the groups, a statistically significant difference ( = 0.001) was found.
