The incidence of and possible factors influencing ECG abnormalities were analysed in one patient group with subarachnoid haemorrhages (n = 406) and another with intracranial tumours (n = 400). The highest incidence of each ECG abnormality was always found in the patients with subarachnoid haemorrhages. In this group an ECG pattern, possibly attributable to the cerebral disease and comprising ab...

Condition on admissionT-98.4?F., P-92, R-16. General condition, good and constitutional disturbances, nil. Sallow complexion. Eyes, normal. Tongue, neither furred nor swollen but haemorrhages present both at the tip and the base, consisting of circular patches about one-third of an inch in diameter. These haemorrhages had partially clotted but on removing the clot oozing continued. Gums not spo...

AIMS To review the neuroimaging of a series of infants and young children admitted to hospital with subdural haemorrhage (SDH). METHODS Neuroradiological investigations of 74 children under 2 years of age, from South Wales and southwest England, in whom an SDH or subdural effusion had been diagnosed between 1992 and 2001, were reviewed. Two paediatric neuroradiologists blinded to the original...

During an enterotoxaemia outbreak, 9 out of 11 (82%) Chinkara deer (Gazella bennettii) died; 5 animals died of peracute disease, whereas acute death was observed in 4 animals. The case fatality rate was 100%. Clinical signs, including high temperature, depression, anorexia, abdominal pain, greenish watery diarrhoea, and respiratory distress, were recorded in the affected deer. Postmortem examin...

During the experimental investigation of the pathogenesis of mesencephalic and pontine haemorrhages associated with supratentorial expanding lesions, it became apparent that removal of the intracranial mass during a particular period was often critical to their development and accentuated their severity (Klintworth, 1965). These observations raise the question whether alleviation of intracrania...

Seventy patients, submitted to oxygen encephalography and oxygen myelography, were examined by retinal funduscopy to establish the incidence of intraocular haemorrhages, a complication reported to be frequent by other investigators. We did not discover any retinal haemorrhages. Pathogenetic factors influencing intracranial or intraocular venous pressure or both are discussed, particularly the e...

Intracerebral hemorrhage is a common disease. We give a short review of primary haemorrhages under neurosurgical aspects. Neurological symptoms depend on localisation and size of the hematoma. Only a subgroup of intracerebral haemorrhages is treated surgically. The STICH-trial tried to differentiate, in which cases the hematoma should be removed surgically. Surgical treatment could be performed...

from the winter 2002 to spring 2006, 126 moribund rainbow trout with clinical signs of external body haemorrhages around and within the oral cavity were sampled from 10 rainbow trout farms situated in the northwest and west of fars province, iran and examined for the detection and identification of yersinia ruckeri, the causative agent of enteric redmouth disease. fish kidneys were cultured ase...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Automated grading has the potential to improve the efficiency of diabetic retinopathy screening services. While disease/no disease grading can be performed using only microaneurysm detection and image-quality assessment, automated recognition of other types of lesions may be advantageous. This study investigated whether inclusion of automated recognition of exudates and haemorrh...

An estimated 1,95,000 deaths every year are caused by burns–the vast majority occurs in lowand middleincome countries. In India, over 10, 00,000 people are moderately or severely burnt every year. Women in the WHO South-East Asia Region have the highest rate of burns, accounting for 27% of global burn deaths and nearly 70% of burn deaths in the region. Adrenal haemorrhage occurs secondary to bo...
