In an aged human female cadaver a left accessory aberrant colic artery (LAACA) was observed and studied. It originated from the superior mesenteric artery at 3 cm proximal to the middle colic artery, at the inferior border of pancreas, passing over Treitz's muscle and continued covered by the superior duodenal fold where it crossed the inferior mesenteric vein. Further, it continued with a satellite vein anterior to the left renal vein and the anterior branch of the renal artery. The LAACA divided into an ascending branch and a descending one, anastomosed with the middle colic and proper left colic arteries; between its two primary branches and the splenic flexure of colon, a hypovascular area was observed. The surgical relevance of the LAACA detailed anatomy mainly relates to specific procedures performed in left colectomies and nephrectomies.
What is presently known is that thromboembolic disease represents a major cause of morbidity and mortality during pregnancy. To this we add a rare but not negligible pathology, acquired and inherited thrombophilia, which increases the predisposition for thrombotic events during pregnancy. In this article, what has been studied is the impact that LMWH has on patients with inherited thrombophilia, both the conventional FV, FII and the newly introduced MTHFR, PAI, FXII, factors which are often combined.81 patients have been taken into consideration / included in study, with the following anterior results, before the patients discovered their illnesses, thus before following treatment: first trimester or advanced pregnancy loss, IUGR, premature birth or secondary placental thrombotic complications such as: preeclampsia, DPPNI or dead fetuses, as well as maternal thrombotic accidents. The administration of LMWH decreased the rate of pregnancy loss compared to untreated pregnancies is statistical significant (p= 0.004), there were fewer DPPNI (p= 0.006), and no intrauterine deaths. We also compared the occurrence of thrombotic events during treated and untreated pregnancies and we observed significant differences in this groups (p= 0.001). There was also a sufficient number of patients with new types of thrombophilia included in the study to demonstrate the impact it has on pregnancy. LMWH improves the situation of women with thrombophilia during pregnancy.
A constant situation present in the anatomy laboratories is represented by the cadavers preservation resulted from dissection. The main requirement for this process is the use of formaldehyde which is a toxic substance probably included in the class of carcinogenic substances. Large specimens resulted from dissection process, such as limbs or trunks, can be preserved only in large containers filled with formaldehyde and for limited periods of time. To remove these issues we used the anatomy laboratory in order to be able to preserve the first sustainable plastinated anatomical specimens. In our study have been used 8 adult human bodies (partial and complete), 6 females and 2 males, aged between 62 and 73. We have removed and dissected brains, upper limbs, kidneys and livers. They have undergone preservation process of plastination.
The aim of this study was to determine if body mass can be considered a risk factor for infertility, and if we can find any correlations between the age values and the FSH and estradiol values, and between the BMI values and the FSH and estradiol values. Our whole sample contains 100 patients splinted in two groups (pregnant patients N1=57 subjects, 57%, and not � pregnant patients N1=43 subjects,43%). In the first part we conducted our analysis on the whole group and after that we focused the analysis on the two groups and we made some comparisons between the groups. We obtained a medium, extremely significant correlation in all scenarios between the age and the FSH values. This is the best association from all the cases which we tested. In all twelve cases we have a positive correlation (r ] 0). As well, we obtained that a BMI value higher than 25can be considered a risk factor for obtaining a pregnancy (p[0.05, RR ] 1, OR]1) . Our study shows that women who have weight problems have much less chances of conceiving a baby, even if they ovulate normally. The risk of infertility increases proportionally to the extra pounds. Irregular ovulation in women is the most common fertility disorder due to obesity disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
