administration of antenatal corticosteroids to pregnant women with imminent delivery of a newborn at 24 to 34 weeks of gestation represents one of the most important advances in perinatal medicine in the past 25 years1,2. a single course of antenatal steroid has been associated with a decrease in acute neonatal systemic morbidity and mortality after preterm birth reducing the risk of respirator...

800x600 to report the efficacy of combination therapy (bevacizumab and photocoagulation) in a case of eales disease this study has been performed. bevacizumab (avastin, 1.25 mg/0.05 ml) was injected intravitreously for the treatment of iris and retinal neovascularization in a 56-year old hispanic female with photocoagulation treatment to control the recurrence of vitreous haemorrhage. our resul...

All 56 infants born between 23 and 28 weeks' gestation admitted to this hospital in 1981 were examined for periventricular haemorrhage with cerebral ultrasonography. Haemorrhage was diagnosed in 34 (61%)-12 (22%) had germinal layer haemorrhage, 18 (32%) had intraventricular haemorrhage, and four (7%) had intracerebral haemorrhage. The two year outcome of survivors with and without periventricul...

UNLABELLED Symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage following thrombolysis for ischaemic stroke causes significant morbidity and mortality. This study assessed which of four risk scores (SEDAN, HAT, GRASPS and SITS) best predicts symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage. METHODS Data from 431 patients treated at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary (2003-2013) were extracted from a thrombolysis database. Score...

BACKGROUND Identification of lobar spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage associated with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is important because it is associated with a higher risk of recurrent intracerebral haemorrhage than arteriolosclerosis-associated intracerebral haemorrhage. We aimed to develop a prediction model for the identification of CAA-associated lobar intracerebral haemorrhage usin...

AIMS The haemorrhage in the plaque (intraplaque haemorrhage) plays a critical role in the progression of atherosclerosis. The purpose of this study is to clarify whether the haemorrhage in the aortic valve leaflet (intraleaflet haemorrhage) accelerates the progression of aortic valve stenosis (AS). METHODS AND RESULTS We examined specimens of aortic valve leaflets obtained from 36 patients wh...

Twenty five of 106 preterm infants of 34 weeks' gestation or less developed intraventricular haemorrhage within the first 48 hours of life. A comparison of infants with and without intraventricular haemorrhage showed no significant differences in their haemostatic parameters at birth. At age 48 hours the group with intraventricular haemorrhage showed a prolonged activated partial thromboplastin...
