Journal ArticleDOI

Murine hindlimb reperfusion injury can be initiated by a self-reactive monoclonal IgM.

TL;DR: A single clone of self-reactive IgM, CM22, can initiate complement-dependent I/R injury, and this injury was 137% greater than in both Cr2-/- mice reconstituted with saline and those reconstitute with a different IgM clone, CM31.
Journal ArticleDOI

The differing roles of the classical and mannose-binding lectin complement pathways in the events following skeletal muscle ischemia-reperfusion.

TL;DR: Data indicate that blockade of the classical pathway alone (C1q) is protective against permeability edema and remote pulmonary injury but not protective against histologic muscle injury, and that blocking the MBL pathway alone protects against histological injury but is not Protective against permeable edema or lung injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Use of CO2 Fractional Photothermolysis for the Treatment of Burn Scars.

TL;DR: Fractional photothermolysis utilizing the CO2 laser is a safe and effective modality for the treatment of symptomatic burn scars, donor sites, and skin grafts, and patient satisfaction with this procedure is high, and complications are low.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrapure, stroma-free, polymerized bovine hemoglobin solution: evaluation of renal toxicity.

TL;DR: This study shows that UPPBHg may be administered in very large doses with only mild, reversible renal toxicity, and observation that urine alkalinization ameliorates this toxicity suggests that this may occur by hemoglobin precipitation or by a toxic effect in the renal tubules.
