Effect of alpha-trinositol on interstitial fluid pressure, oedema generation and albumin extravasation in experimental frostbite in the rat. (1/31)

1. The anti-inflammatory effect of alpha-trinositol (D-myo-inositol-1,2,6-trisphosphate) on oedema formation, microvascular protein leakage and interstitial fluid pressure (Pif) in rat skin after frostbite injury, was investigated. Alpha-trinositol (40 mg kg body weight(-1)) was administered intravenously as a bolus both before and/or in the interval between freezing and thawing of the tissue. 2. Pif was measured in rat paw skin with micropipettes connected to a servo-controlled counterpressure system. Oedema formation was estimated by measuring the increase in total tissue water content (wet weight minus dry weight divided by dry weight). Albumin extravasation (i.e., the difference between the plasma equivalent space for 125I- and 131I-human serum albumin (HSA) circulating for different time intervals) was used to estimate the microvascular leakage. 3. Compared to untreated animals, alpha-trinositol given pre- and/or post-freeze reduced total tissue water and albumin extravasation as well as the fall in Pif in injured tissue significantly (P<0.05). Alpha-trinositol given only post-freeze reduced total tissue water and albumin extravasation from 4.46+/-0.93 and 2.37+/-1.12 to 2.51+/-0.29 and 0.36+/-0.18 ml g dry weight(-1), respectively (P<0.05). 4. Pif fell from -0.8+/-0.2 mmHg pre-freeze to -3.4+/-1.0 mmHg (P<0.05) at 20 min after tissue injury (circulatory arrest) and was attenuated by treatment with alpha-trinositol. 5. We conclude that alpha-trinositol exerts its anti-oedematous effect by acting on the extracellular matrix, attenuating the lowering of Pif as well as on the microvascular wall, thereby decreasing the protein extravasation.  (+info)

Frostbite at the gym: a case report of an ice pack burn. (2/31)

The case is reported of a 59 year old woman who suffered a 1% total body surface area superficial partial thickness burn to her calf following the application of an ice pack. The cause, resulting injury, and subsequent management are discussed. It is possible that such injuries are common, but no similar reports were found in a literature search. Awareness of the risk of this type of injury is important for all those entrusted with advising patients on the treatment of minor soft tissue injuries.  (+info)

Frozen chips: an unusual cause of severe frostbite injury. (3/31)

A case of severe frostbite injury to the right foot is presented. This was caused by the inappropriate application of a bag of frozen chips to the foot in an attempt to ease non-specific pain. No specific acute traumatic injury was identified. As the patient was a teacher of physical education, the pain had initially been assumed to originate from a minor musculoskeletal injury. Full recovery ensued after surgical excision of necrotic tissue and split skin grafting. The danger of inappropriate overenthusiastic use of ice packs or other frozen material to treat soft tissue injuries is emphasised. The need for education to prevent similar future injuries is discussed.  (+info)

Enhanced responses of spinal dorsal horn neurons to heat and cold stimuli following mild freeze injury to the skin. (4/31)

The effects of a mild freeze injury to the skin on responses of nociceptive dorsal horn neurons to cold and heat stimuli were examined in anesthetized rats. Electrophysiological recordings were obtained from 72 nociceptive spinal neurons located in the superficial and deep dorsal horn. All neurons had receptive fields (RFs) on the glabrous skin of the hindpaw, and neurons were functionally divided into wide dynamic range (WDR) and high-threshold (HT) neurons. Forty-four neurons (61%) were classified as WDR and responded to both innocuous and noxious mechanical stimuli (mean mechanical threshold of 12.8 +/- 1.6 mN). Twenty-eight neurons (39%) were classified as HT and were excited only by noxious mechanical stimuli (mean mechanical threshold of 154.2 +/- 18.3 mN). Neurons were characterized for their sensitivity heat (35 to 51 degrees C) and cold (28 to -12 degrees C) stimuli applied to their RF. Among WDR neurons, 86% were excited by both noxious heat and cold stimuli, while 14% responded only to heat. For HT neurons, 61% responded to heat and cold stimuli, 32% responded only to noxious heat, and 7% responded only to noxious cold. Effects of a mild freeze injury (-15 degrees C applied to the RF for 20 s) on responses to heat and cold stimuli were examined in 30 WDR and 22 HT neurons. Skin freezing was verified as an abrupt increase in skin temperature at the site of injury due to the exothermic reaction associated with crystallization. Freezing produced a decrease in response thresholds to heat and cold stimuli in most WDR and HT neurons. WDR and HT neurons exhibited a mean decrease in response threshold for cold of 9.0 +/- 1.3 degrees C and 10.0 +/- 1.6 degrees C, respectively. Mean response thresholds for heat decreased 4.0 +/- 0.4 degrees C and 4.3 +/- 1.3 degrees C in WDR and HT neurons, respectively. In addition, responses to suprathreshold cold and heat stimuli increased. WDR and HT neurons exhibited an 89% and a 192% increase in response across all cold stimuli, and a 93 and 92% increase in responses evoked across all heat stimuli, respectively. Our results demonstrate that many spinal neurons encode intensity of noxious cold as well as noxious heat over a broad range of stimulus temperatures. Enhanced responses of WDR and HT neurons to cold and heat stimuli after a mild freeze injury is likely to contribute to thermal hyperalgesia following a similar freeze injury in humans.  (+info)

Differences in finger skin contact cooling response between an arterial occlusion and a vasodilated condition. (5/31)

To assess the presence and magnitude of the effect of skin blood flow on finger skin cooling on contact with cold objects against the background of circulatory disorder risks in occupational exposures, this study investigates the effect of zero vs. close-to-maximal hand blood flow on short-term (< or =180 s) skin contact cooling response at a contact pressure that allows capillary perfusion of the distal pulp of the fingertip. Six male volunteers touched a block of aluminium with a finger contact force of 0.5 N at a temperature of -2 degrees C under a vasodilated and an occluded condition. Before both conditions, participants were required to exercise in a hot room for > or = 30 min for cutaneous vasodilation to occur (increase in rectal temperature of 1 degrees C). Under the vasodilated condition, forearm blood flow rate rose as high as 16.8 ml.100 ml(-1).min(-1). Under the occluded condition, the arm was exsanguinated, after which a blood pressure cuff was secured on the wrist inducing arterial occlusion. Contact temperature of the finger pad during the subsequent cold contact exposure was measured. No significant difference was found between the starting skin temperatures for the two blood flow conditions, but a distinct difference in shape of the contact cooling curve was apparent between the two blood flow conditions, with Newtonian cooling observed under the occluded condition, whereas a rewarming of the finger skin toward the end of the exposure occurred for the vasodilated condition. Blood flow was found to significantly increase contact temperature from 40 s onward (P < 0.01). It is concluded that, at a finger contact force compatible with capillary perfusion of the finger pad ( approximately 0.5 N), circulating blood provides a heat input source that significantly affects finger skin contact cooling during a vasodilated state.  (+info)

Enzyme histochemical reactions at the demarcation line in frostbite: an experimental study on rabbits. (6/31)

Eleven frostbites were induced on the ears of seven New Zealand White rabbits and specimens were taken from the lesion after 1, 4 and 8 hours, and from ten further frostbites on the ears of six rabbits for examination 1, 3 and 7 days later. The specimens were taken at the border between the frozen and non-frozen skin. NADH-diaphorase, alkaline phosphatase and esterase were demonstrated histochemically in the sample, which was also studied by haematoxylin and eosin staining. Five ears served as controls. Some granulocytes could be seen accumulating in the vessels and in the dermis at the border of the frostbite area after only 1 hour, and other enzyme rich cells (macrophages) also began to appear. After 4 hours the inflammation was quite obvious with the enzyme reactions clearly observable in the sections. After 8 hours there was no marked difference compared with the 4-hour picture. It was only after 3 days that the line of demarcation between the normal and frostbite tissue could be seen clearly. This was oblique in some specimens and vertical in others. The degeneration in the lesion could best be demonstrated by the NADH-diaphorase and esterase reactions and the early inflammation by the alkaline phosphatase reaction.  (+info)

Frostbite: incidence and predisposing factors in mountaineers. (7/31)

BACKGROUND: Frostbite, the most common cold injury, occurs in mountaineers, a major group at risk, more often than in the general population. OBJECTIVES: To describe the incidence of frostbite and the situations associated with it in mountaineering, emphasising factors that can be modified to decrease its frequency and severity. METHODS: In this cross sectional, questionnaire based study, 637 mountaineers were asked if they had suffered any frostbite injuries during the preceding two years and to provide the personal and circumstantial details. RESULTS: The mean incidence was 366/1000 population per year. Grade 1 injury (83.0%) and hands (26.4%) and feet (24.1%) involvement were most common. There was a significant relation between lack of proper equipment (odds ratio 14.3) or guide (p<0.001) and the injury. Inappropriate clothing, lack or incorrect use of equipment, and lack of knowledge of how to deal with cold and severe weather were claimed to be the main reasons for the injury. CONCLUSIONS: In high altitude and winter expeditions, mountaineers should wear appropriate clothing, have the necessary equipment such as quality boots and mittens, use a competent guide, and have training on how to tackle cold weather. They should also avoid wet clothing, windy terrains, and should never remain in the same position for long periods to reduce the risk of cold injuries.  (+info)

Gene expression of myostatin during development and regeneration of skeletal muscle in Japanese Black Cattle. (8/31)

Myostatin is a specific negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth and is regarded as one of the most important factors for myogenesis. The aim of the current study was to analyze the developmental change in the gene expression of myostatin and an adipogenic transcription factor (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor lambda2) in the semitendinosus muscle of Japanese Black Cattle throughout the whole life cycle. An additional aim was to compare the temporal expression patterns of myostatin and relevant myogenic regulatory factors (MRF) mRNA during muscle regeneration after frostbite injury at 16 mo of age. The developmental pattern of myostatin gene expression exhibited 2 peaks: the greatest expression occurred in utero (P <0.05) and the second greatest occurred at 16 mo of age (P <0.05). The greatest level of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor lambda2 expression was observed at 16 mo of age (P <0.05), which paralleled myostatin expression. During frostbite-induced muscle regeneration, gene expression for myostatin and 4 MRF; i.e., Myf5, MyoD, myogenin and MRF4, showed contrasting responses. Myostatin mRNA dramatically declined by 68.1 and 82.6% at 3 and 5 d after injury (P <0.05), respectively, which paralleled its protein expression, and was restored at 10 d. In contrast, the expressions of all 4 MRF mRNA were low initially but increased by 5 d after injury (P <0.05) and then remained constant or decreased slightly. These results suggest that myostatin may play a role in muscle marbling in the fattening period by decreasing myogenesis and increasing adipogenesis, and that the interaction between myostatin and MRF genes may take place at an early stage of skeletal muscle regeneration.  (+info)

Frostbite is a medical condition characterized by damage to body tissues caused by extreme cold. It most commonly affects the extremities, such as the fingers, toes, ears, and nose. This occurs when the skin and underlying tissues freeze, causing cellular injury and potentially leading to tissue death if not treated promptly.

The four stages of frostbite are:

1. Frostnip: The earliest stage of frostbite, characterized by cold, pale, or reddened skin. The affected area may also feel numb or tingly. At this stage, the damage is reversible with prompt rewarming.
2. Superficial Frostbite: At this stage, ice crystals form in the skin and underlying tissues, causing pain, swelling, and redness. The skin may appear white or waxy, and blisters may develop within 24-48 hours after rewarming.
3. Deep Frostbite: This is a more severe form of frostbite that affects the deeper tissues, such as muscles and tendons. The affected area becomes hard, cold, and numb, and the skin may appear blue or black. Large blisters filled with dark fluid may form, and there may be tissue death (gangrene) in severe cases.
4. Gangrene: This is the most severe stage of frostbite, characterized by tissue death and the potential need for amputation. The affected area turns black and becomes gangrenous, releasing a foul-smelling discharge.

Prevention measures include dressing appropriately for cold weather, covering exposed skin, staying dry, avoiding alcohol and tobacco use, and seeking shelter in extreme cold conditions. Prompt medical attention is necessary to prevent further tissue damage and potential amputation.

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and methane are both greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming and climate change. However, they are distinct substances with different chemical structures and sources.

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are synthetic compounds made up of carbon, chlorine, and fluorine atoms. They were commonly used in refrigerants, aerosol sprays, and foam blowing agents until they were phased out due to their harmful effects on the ozone layer. CFCs have high global warming potential, meaning that they trap heat in the atmosphere many times more effectively than carbon dioxide.

Methane, on the other hand, is a naturally occurring gas made up of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms (CH4). It is produced by the decomposition of organic matter, such as in landfills, wetlands, and the digestive tracts of animals like cattle. Methane is also released during the extraction and transportation of fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. While methane has a shorter lifespan in the atmosphere than CFCs, it is an even more potent greenhouse gas, trapping heat at a rate 25 times greater than carbon dioxide over a 100-year period.

Therefore, while both CFCs and methane are harmful to the climate, they are distinct substances with different sources and impacts.

I'm sorry for any confusion, but "Propane" is not a medical term. It is a chemical compound commonly used as a fuel for heating, cooking, and engines. Propane is a gas at room temperature and pressure, but it can be liquefied under moderate pressure and stored in cylinders or tanks.

If you have any questions about a medical term or concept, I'd be happy to try to help answer those for you!

Protective clothing refers to specialized garments worn by healthcare professionals, first responders, or workers in various industries to protect themselves from potential hazards that could cause harm to their bodies. These hazards may include biological agents (such as viruses or bacteria), chemicals, radiological particles, physical injuries, or extreme temperatures.

Examples of protective clothing include:

1. Medical/isolation gowns: Fluid-resistant garments worn by healthcare workers during medical procedures to protect against the spread of infectious diseases.
2. Lab coats: Protective garments typically worn in laboratories to shield the wearer's skin and clothing from potential chemical or biological exposure.
3. Coveralls: One-piece garments that cover the entire body, often used in industries with high exposure risks, such as chemical manufacturing or construction.
4. Gloves: Protective hand coverings made of materials like latex, nitrile, or vinyl, which prevent direct contact with hazardous substances.
5. Face masks and respirators: Devices worn over the nose and mouth to filter out airborne particles, protecting the wearer from inhaling harmful substances.
6. Helmets and face shields: Protective headgear used in various industries to prevent physical injuries from falling objects or impact.
7. Fire-resistant clothing: Specialized garments worn by firefighters and those working with high temperatures or open flames to protect against burns and heat exposure.

The choice of protective clothing depends on the specific hazards present in the work environment, as well as the nature and duration of potential exposures. Proper use, maintenance, and training are essential for ensuring the effectiveness of protective clothing in minimizing risks and maintaining worker safety.

Argon is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and nonreactive noble gas that occurs in the Earth's atmosphere. It is chemically inert and is extracted from air by fractional distillation. Argon is used in various applications such as illumination, welding, and as a shielding gas in manufacturing processes.

In medical terms, argon is not commonly used as a therapeutic agent or medication. However, it has been used in some medical procedures such as argon laser therapy for the treatment of certain eye conditions like diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration. In these procedures, an argon laser is used to seal off leaking blood vessels or destroy abnormal tissue in the eye.

Overall, while argon has important uses in medical procedures, it is not a medication or therapeutic agent that is commonly administered directly to patients.

In the context of medical definitions, "refrigeration" typically refers to the process of storing or preserving medical supplies, specimens, or pharmaceuticals at controlled low temperatures, usually between 2°C and 8°C (35°F and 46°F). This temperature range is known as the "cold chain" and is critical for maintaining the stability, efficacy, and safety of many medical products.

Refrigeration is used to prevent the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms that can cause spoilage or degradation of medical supplies and medications. It also helps to slow down chemical reactions that can lead to the breakdown of active ingredients in pharmaceuticals.

Proper refrigeration practices are essential for healthcare facilities, laboratories, and research institutions to ensure the quality and safety of their medical products and specimens. Regular monitoring and maintenance of refrigeration equipment are necessary to maintain the appropriate temperature range and prevent any deviations that could compromise the integrity of the stored items.

An encyclopedia is a comprehensive reference work containing articles on various topics, usually arranged in alphabetical order. In the context of medicine, a medical encyclopedia is a collection of articles that provide information about a wide range of medical topics, including diseases and conditions, treatments, tests, procedures, and anatomy and physiology. Medical encyclopedias may be published in print or electronic formats and are often used as a starting point for researching medical topics. They can provide reliable and accurate information on medical subjects, making them useful resources for healthcare professionals, students, and patients alike. Some well-known examples of medical encyclopedias include the Merck Manual and the Stedman's Medical Dictionary.

Compartment syndromes refer to a group of conditions characterized by increased pressure within a confined anatomical space (compartment), leading to impaired circulation and nerve function. These compartments are composed of bones, muscles, tendons, blood vessels, and nerves, surrounded by a tough fibrous fascial covering that does not expand easily.

There are two main types of compartment syndromes: acute and chronic.

1. Acute Compartment Syndrome (ACS): This is a medical emergency that typically occurs after trauma, fractures, or prolonged compression of the affected limb. The increased pressure within the compartment reduces blood flow to the muscles and nerves, causing ischemia, pain, and potential muscle and nerve damage if not promptly treated with fasciotomy (surgical release of the fascial covering). Symptoms include severe pain disproportionate to the injury, pallor, paresthesia (abnormal sensation), pulselessness, and paralysis.
2. Chronic Compartment Syndrome (CCS) or Exertional Compartment Syndrome: This condition is caused by repetitive physical activities that lead to increased compartment pressure over time. The symptoms are usually reversible with rest and may include aching, cramping, tightness, or swelling in the affected limb during exercise. CCS rarely leads to permanent muscle or nerve damage if managed appropriately with activity modification, physical therapy, and occasionally surgical intervention (fasciotomy or fasciectomy).

Early recognition and appropriate management of compartment syndromes are crucial for preventing long-term complications such as muscle necrosis, contractures, and nerve damage.

There is no single, universally accepted medical definition of "homeless persons." However, in the public health and healthcare contexts, homeless individuals are often defined as those who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence. This can include people who are living on the streets, in shelters, vehicles, or other temporary or emergency housing situations. The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, a major federal law in the United States that provides funding for homeless services programs, defines homeless individuals as those who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence, and includes people who are living in shelters, transitional housing, or doubled up with family or friends due to loss of housing, economic hardship, or similar reasons.

I apologize for any confusion, but "Military Personnel" is not a medical term. It refers to individuals who serve in the military forces of a country, including the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. Medical terms typically refer to specific conditions, diagnoses, treatments, or anatomical features related to healthcare. If you have any questions about medical terminology or concepts, I would be happy to help clarify!

I'm sorry for any confusion, but "skiing" is not a medical term. It is a recreational activity that involves sliding down snow-covered slopes while standing on long, flat runners called skis. However, if you're interested, I can provide information about injuries that are commonly associated with skiing:

Skiing injuries can range from minor scrapes and bruises to more serious injuries such as fractures, dislocations, sprains, and strains. Some of the most common skiing injuries include:

1. Knee injuries: ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) tears are a common injury in skiers, often caused by landing awkwardly from jumps or falls.
2. Shoulder injuries: Dislocations and sprains can occur when skiers fall onto an outstretched arm.
3. Thumb injuries: Skiers can suffer from "skier's thumb" when they fall with their hand still in the ski pole strap, causing a ligament tear in the thumb.
4. Head injuries: Concussions and other head injuries can occur if skiers collide with objects or other people, or if they fall and hit their head on the ground. Wearing a helmet while skiing is highly recommended to reduce the risk of head injuries.
5. Fractures: Skiers can suffer fractures in various parts of the body, including the wrists, ankles, and hips, due to falls or collisions.

To prevent these injuries, it's essential to wear appropriate safety gear, such as helmets, wrist guards, and back protectors, and to receive proper instruction on skiing techniques and safety practices. Additionally, staying in good physical condition and being aware of one's limits can help reduce the risk of injury while skiing.

A deductible is a specific amount of money that a patient must pay out of pocket before their health insurance starts covering the costs of medical services. For example, if a patient has a $1000 deductible, they must pay the first $1000 of their medical bills themselves before the insurance begins to cover the remaining costs. Deductibles are annual, meaning they reset every year.

Coinsurance is the percentage of costs for a covered medical service that a patient is responsible for paying after they have met their deductible. For example, if a patient has a 20% coinsurance rate, they will be responsible for paying 20% of the cost of each medical service, while their insurance covers the remaining 80%. Coinsurance rates vary depending on the health insurance plan and the specific medical service being provided.
