TL;DR: In skin regeneration therapy using a marrow mesenchymal cell/artificial dermis composite graft, skin regeneration is possible with bone marrow aspiration, a minimally invasive procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Specific Changes in Human Brain After Hypoglycemic Injury
Masayuki Fujioka,Kazuo Okuchi,Kenichiro Hiramatsu,Toshisuke Sakaki,Syouji Sakaguchi,Yoshinobu Ishii +5 more
TL;DR: Repeated MR images revealed specific lesions in the bilateral basal ganglia, cerebral cortex, substantia nigra, and hippocampus, which suggests the particular vulnerability of these areas to hypoglycemia in the human brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
The clinical usefulness of extravascular lung water and pulmonary vascular permeability index to diagnose and characterize pulmonary edema: a prospective multicenter study on the quantitative differential diagnostic definition for acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome

TL;DR: PVPI may be a useful quantitative diagnostic tool for ARDS in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure and radiographic infiltrates and was weakly correlated with intrathoracic blood volume in ALI/ARDS and cardiogenic edema patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Successful use of the new high-dose mannitol treatment in patients with Glasgow Coma Scale scores of 3 and bilateral abnormal pupillary widening: a randomized trial
TL;DR: Ultra-early high-dose mannitol administration in the emergency room is the first known treatment strategy significantly to reverse recent clinical signs of impending brain death, and also to contribute directly to improved long-term clinical outcomes for these patients who have previously been considered unsalvageable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving clinical outcomes from acute subdural hematomas with the emergency preoperative administration of high doses of mannitol: a randomized trial.
TL;DR: Emergency preoperative HDM administration was associated with improved clinical outcomes for patients with acute subdural hematomas, and preoperative improvement of abnormal pupillary widening and better postoperative control of intracranial hypertension and associated relative cerebral hyperperfusion seemed to be relevant factors associated withImproved outcomes.
