Discovery of novel medicine for treatment of chronic wounds 07:20, Medical research Every 20 seconds, a limb is lost as a consequence of diabetic foot ulcer that does not heal. To date, medical solutions that can change this situation are very limited. In his doctoral thesis Yue Shen from the Industrial Doctoral School and the Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics at Umeå University presented a novel medicine for chronic wound treatment that may completely change the lives of millions of patients. Diabetic wounds are the most severe type of chronic wounds that largely impair the quality of life in patients and inflict an enormous burden on the healthcare system. World-wide, there are more than 350 million diabetic patients and about 20% of them develop diabetic foot ulcers that often do not heal, which eventually lead to amputation. Based on these studies, a controlled clinical study using human plasminogen to treat chronic wounds in humans is now planned.

Drugs.com | Prescription Drug Information, Interactions & Side Effects SENSORY PATHWAYS Sensory pathways include only those routes which conduct information to the conscious cortex of the brain. However, we will use the term in its more loosely and commonly applied context to include input from all receptors, whether their signals reach the conscious level or not. Pain and Temperature Pain and temperature information from general somatic receptors is conducted over small-diameter (type A delta and type C) GSA fibers of the spinal nerves into the posterior horn of the spinal cord gray matter (Fig-1). Second-order neurons from these synapses cross over to the opposite side of the cord in the anterior white commissure, where they turn upward as the lateral spinothalamic tract (LSTT). Fast and Slow Pain Pain sensation is often confusingly labeled "fast" or "slow" depending on the type of fiber which conducts the impulse and the speed with which the signal consciously registers. Dermatomes Touch and Pressure Touch can be subjectively described as discriminating or crude. Vision

Pharmacy Times CE: Diabetes Update for Pharmacists: Mechanisms of Blood Glucose Regulation by the Body actualidad.rt Los cirujanos Steven Claes, Evie Vereecke, Michael Maes, Jan Victor, Peter Verdonk y Johan Bellemans fueron los primeros que lograron identificar el ligamento anterolateral (ALL, por sus siglas en inglés) con las técnicas de la anatomía macroscópica. Para lograr el hallazgo los científicos estudiaron 41 rodillas de cadáveres humanos y encontraron el nuevo ligamento en 40 de ellas, es decir, un 97% de los casos estudiados. Y no solo se trata de un descubrimiento asombroso en esta época en la que parece que ya se sabe todo sobre el cuerpo humano, sino que la nueva parte del cuerpo parece jugar un papel importante en las lesiones del ligamento cruzado, común entre los atletas. Según los científicos se necesitan más estudios para descubrir totalmente su función biomecánica.
