Pressure ulcers (PUs) are chronic wounds that occur as areas of tissue necrosis that results from external physical compression, shear forces, and friction. Recently, the efficacy of polyvinylidene film dressing (PVFD) for PUs without any agents promoting wound healing has been reported, suggesting that PUs have their own mechanism of spontaneous healing achieved by vascularization, synthesis o...

Root exudates released into soil have important functions in mobilizing metal micronutrients and for causing selective enrichment of plant beneficial soil micro-organisms that colonize the rhizosphere. Analysis of plant root exudates typically has involved chromatographic methods that rely on a priori knowledge of which compounds might be present. In the research reported here, the combination ...

OBJECTIVE To assess the utility of clinical features for diagnosis of streptococcal pharyngotonsillitis in pediatrics. METHODS A total of 335 children aged 1-18 years old and presenting clinical manifestations of acute pharyngotonsillitis (APT) were subjected to clinical interviews, physical examinations, and throat swab specimen collection to perform cultures and latex particle agglutination...

The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the measurement of cytokines from abdominal exudate is valuable for the early diagnosis of prolonged postoperative ileus (PPOI) following colorectal surgery. In the present study, 100 consecutive patients who were scheduled to undergo elective resection for carcinoma of the sigmoid or rectum were investigated. Abdominal exudate was obtaine...

Compatible and incompatible pollen tubes growing on detached Lilium longiflorum pistils which had been prelabeled with myoinositol-U-(14)C take up a portion of the label and utilize it for biosynthesis of tube wall substance. The label is transferred from pistil to pollen tubes apparently via the secretion products (exudate) of the pistil. The exudate thus appears to have a major nutritional ro...

In normal wound healing, exudate volume will decrease as healing occurs. However, exudate can cause problems if the quantity means that it is difficult to prevent dressing leakage or if there is swelling (oedema). Dressing leakage (known as strike-through) may increase the risk of infection since dressings that are moist or wet on the outside are more attractive to microbes and more easily pene...
