Caustic Object Construction Based on Multiple Caustic Patterns
Inverse caustic problem, that is computing the geometry of a reflector and/or refractor based on a given caustic pattern, is currently not widely studied. In this paper, we propose a technique to solve the inverse caustic problem in which we compute the geometry of a semi-transparent homogeneous refractive object (caustic object) given a directional light source and a set of caustic patterns (e...
متن کاملManagement of Esophageal Burns Caused by Caustic Ingestion: A Case Report
INTRODUCTION Domestic and industrial swallowing of caustic substances can cause acute and chronic injuries. In the acute phase of care, focus is on the immediate control of tissue damage and perforation, and in the chronic phase, the focus is on the treatment of pharyngeal narrowing and impaired swallowing. CASE PRESENTATION The patients of this report were an 18-year-old man and a 20-year-ol...
متن کاملEfficacy of keratinocyte growth factor (palifermin) for the treatment of caustic esophageal burns
Current treatment strategies against the development of corrosive esophageal strictures remain unsatisfactory. Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate the efficacy of keratinocyte growth factor, in the form of palifermin, for the prevention of stricture development following esophageal caustic injuries in a rat model. A total of 32 female Wistar albino rats were divided into four ...
متن کاملHigh doses of methylprednisolone in the management of caustic esophageal burns.
OBJECTIVE Caustic substance ingestion in childhood is a public health issue in developing countries, and several management protocols have been proposed to prevent the resulting esophageal strictures. The role of corticosteroids in preventing corrosive-induced strictures is controversial. Our aim was to study the influence of high doses of corticosteroids in preventing esophageal strictures. ...
متن کاملFactors affecting the depth of burns occurring in medical institutions.
INTRODUCTION Most cases of burns occurring in medical institutions are associated with activities involving heat. It is very difficult to detect these burns. To date, there are few reports on burns occurring in medical institutions. The purpose of this paper was to analyze the etiology of burns occurring in medical institutions and to elucidate the factors affecting burn depth. METHODS We con...
