epidemiology of respiratory hazards: recent advances.a bibliographical review of epidemiological studies published over the last five years has led us to individualize the themes that have been the subject of most recent publications (table i). these research themes are not new, which shows a certain continuity in epidemiological research on the respiratory risks of occupational origin. few studies are devoted to the identification of unrecognized respiratory risks; nevertheless, the methodology used, the indicators of effects studies contribute t ...20061626104
the role of an adhesive (histoacryl) in tendon repair.two in vitro experiments have been done comparing various techniques of tendon repair. these include repairs using an adhesive, 2-butyl cyanoacrylate (histoacryl), and repairs by the modified kessler technique, using 4/0 braided polyester and 4/0 stainless steel. mechanical analysis has shown that by replacing the circumferential suture of a modified kessler tendon repair with histoacryl, the tensile strength of the repair and the force needed to produce a gap can be increased by 30% to 40%. thi ...20061479248
[torsion of the colonic epiploic appendages].operations were carried out on 21 patients with torsion of epiploic appendages of the colon (sigmoid 19, ascending 1, hepatic flexure 1). this pathologic condition has no specific manifestations and occurs under the mask of other emergencies. the suggested symptom of "pain displacement" in combination with other signs allowed the correct diagnosis to be established before the operation in two thirds of patients. patients with torsion of epiploic appendages must be subjected to an emergency opera ...20061388218
