Emergent Repair of Cardiac Rupture and Successful AF Ablation Procedure

Sahin Iscan, Bortecin Eygi and Koksal Donmez

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: May 10, 2018

Today, ablation techniques for atrial fibrillation (AF) are successfully increasing but catheter ablation may have important complication risks. We report the case of a 56-year-old woman with chronic AF who had left atrial rupture during catheter ablation. Echocardiography showed pericardial effusion during procedure and she was operated immediately. Left atrial rupture repaired with sternotomy. After stabilizing the hemodynamic and metabolic parameters, intraoperative bipolar ablation was perfo...

Humanized Care: A Challenge for Nursing

Oscar Alberto Beltran Salazar

Article Type: Letter To The Editor | First Published: May 10, 2018

The practice of health care currently reflects a constant tension between to be and should be, in other words, between what actually the care is and what it should be, up to limits in which people can speak of dehumanization. This tension is evident in areas such as the relationship between the medical and nursing staff, the patients and their families, mediated by labor conditions, the use of technology and health administration often guided by reductionist criteria that have limited the intera...

Effects of Residual Oil Fly Ash (ROFA) on the Development of Lung Cancer in Mice

Luis Fernando Antunes Pinheiro, Leonardo Fleury Orlandini, Mariana Scombatti Filipe, Jose Antonio Cordeiro and Patricia Maluf Cury

Article Type: Review Article | First Published: May 07, 2018

Relationship between environmental pollution and lung cancer has not been fully clarified. There are particles with aerodynamic mass below 2.5 m, capable of directly injuring the lung due to their small size. The majority arise from the burning of fossil combustibles, and are called "residual oil fly ash" (ROFA). They have been demonstrated to damage cells in different ways; however, their relationship with lung cancer etiology has not been clarified....

Effects of Intra-Dialysis Resistance Training in Hemodynamic Parameters, Oxidative Stress and Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease

Bruna S Lourenco, Marcos A Nascimento, Vicente N Siqueira, Sergio A Draibe, Marco T Mello, Sergio Tufik, Maria EF Canziani and Elisa MS Higa

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: May 06, 2018

Chronic kidney disease is a public health problem that causes severe complications to the patient. The major damage is the loss of muscle mass, with a consequent reduction in the functional capacity that is associated with hypertension and increased oxidative stress. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of intra-dialysis resistance training on the hemodynamic parameters, oxidative stress and quality of life in patients with chronic kidney disease....

Feet and Footwear: Applying Biological Design and Mismatch Theory to Running Injuries

Michael Wilkinson, Richard Stoneham and Lee Saxby

Article Type: Opininon Article | First Published: May 07, 2018

The Endurance-Running hypothesis proposes that natural selection has shaped humans into endurance-running specialists. Running-related-injury rates between 20-79% suggests modern humans are prone to injury in this species-specific movement pattern. This opinion piece offers a novel perspective on high-injury prevalence in human endurance running, focussing on evolutionary mismatch between modern athletic footwear and evolved foot structure and function....

The Effect of Initial Visual Acuity on Visual Prognosis in Low Vision Aid and Rehabilitation Cases

Deniz Altinbay and Fatih Mehmet ADIBELLI

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: May 05, 2018

A retrospective evaluation was carried out on 869 eyes of 464 patients who were referred to our center due to low vision between December 2010 and May 2015. Distance acuities of the patients were measured with a distant vision chart prepared for patients with low vision, and the near acuities were measured with a Jaeger near vision chart. Patients with logMAR ≥ 0.5 [snellen ≤ 20/63] visual acuity were included in the study. Cases were separated into 4 groups according to initial distant acui...
