Abstract Introduction Priapism remains a challenging consult for urologists. Proper understanding of the risk priapism after intracavernosal injections (ICI) and management trends patients with may help urologists facing this issue. Objective To describe rates patient demographics ICI diagnosis using global database. Methods TriNetX is collaborative research enterprise which collects real-time ...

background: a precise understanding of the mechanism of human neointimal stenoses and atherosclerotic fibrous plaques , which give rise to thromboses in vital arteries, requires a suitable animal model that would mimic the same characteristics well. we developed a rabbit model of neointimal stenosis and fibrotic plaque rupture in the carotid artery to visualize the lesion progress and to charac...

in order to adapt lasota strain of newcastle disease virus (ndv) on chick embryo fibroblast (cef) cells, 0.1 ml from lasota vaccine produced in razi vaccine and serum research institute inoculated to the cef cells and was passaged five times in the cef grown in eagle’s minimum essential medium (mem). first to third passages were blind but in fourth passage cytopathic effect of virus was observe...

the aim of this study was to investigate the iron concentrations in serum and carotid plaque in patients with different morphology of carotid atherosclerotic plaque and compared with other metal ions. carotid endarterectomy due to the significant atherosclerotic stenosis was performed in 91 patients. control group consisted of 27 patients, without carotid atherosclerosis. atherosclerotic pla...

Introduction: Ophthalmic plaque radiotherapy using I-125 radioactive seeds in removable episcleral plaques is often used in management of ophthalmic tumors. Radioactive seeds are fixed in a gold bowl-shaped plaque and the plaque is sutured to the scleral surface corresponding to the base of the intraocular tumor. This treatment allows for a localized radiation dose delivery to the tumor with a ...

INTRODUCTION Ultrasonography of the penis is readily available to the urologist and gives good anatomic detail of soft tissue structures. It has not been widely utilized in the assessment of Peyronie's disease (PD). AIMS To describe the sonographic characteristics of the penis in PD and the relationship between clinical and sonographic features. METHODS This cross-sectional study enrolled p...

Introduction: We have designed the Digital Inflection Rigidometer (DIR), a new electronic method for the diagnosis of the erectile dysfunction19 (fig. 1). Objectives: We aim to demostrate that the DIR, used by the patient himself either at the clinic or at home will provide accurately, in a noninvasive and fast way the penile axial32 rigidity (PAR) in grammes, the relative intracavernosal press...
