  • Bleeding from neovascular and fragile vessels in proliferative diabetic retinopathy, proliferative sickle cell retinopathy, ischemic retinopathy secondary to retinal vein occlusion, and retinopathy of prematurity are among the most common pathological causes of vitreous hemorrhage.

  • 1] Although nearly every organ system can be affected by cocaine toxicity, most patients present with cardiovascular complaints. (medscape.com)
  • Acute cocaine toxicity has three reported phases. (medscape.com)
  • however, bleeding from abnormal new vessels or rupture of normal retinal vessels from direct or indirect trauma frequently is associated with vitreous hemorrhage. (medscape.com)
  • The second most frequent pathological mechanism for vitreous hemorrhage is tearing of the retinal vessels caused by either a break in the retina or detachment of the posterior vitreous, while the cortical vitreous is adherent to the retinal vessels. (medscape.com)
  • In addition, patients with sickle cell retinopathy may show a salmon-patch hemorrhage caused by blowout in the vessel wall following abrupt occlusion in the arterioles by aggregated sickled red blood cells. (medscape.com)
  • This condition may result directly from retinal tears or neovascularization of the retina, or it may be related to bleeding from preexisting blood vessels in these structures. (medscape.com)

  • BACKGROUND: Using rat stomach perforation as a prototypic direct lesion applied in cytoprotection research, we focused on the first demonstration of the severe occlusion/ occlusion-like syndrome induced by stomach perforation. (bvsalud.org)
  • The revealed stomach-induced occlusion/occlusion-like syndrome corresponds to the previously described occlusion/occlusion-like syndromes in rats suffering multicausal pathology and shared severe vascular and multiorgan failure. (bvsalud.org)
  • AIM: To reveal the stomach perforation-induced general occlusion/occlusion-like syndrome and BPC 157 therapy effect. (bvsalud.org)
  • METHODS: The procedure included deeply anesthetized rats, complete calvariectomy, laparotomy at 15 min thereafter, and stomach perforation to rapidly induce vascular and multiorgan failure occlusion/occlusion-like syndrome. (bvsalud.org)
  • CONCLUSION: We revealed stomach perforation as a severe occlusion/occlusion-like syndrome, peripherally and centrally, and rapid counteraction by BPC 157 therapy. (bvsalud.org)
  • We focused on the first demonstration that antiarrhythmics, particularly class II and class III antiarrhythmic and beta-blocker sotalol can induce severe occlusion/occlusion-like syndrome in rats. (bvsalud.org)
  • In this syndrome, as in similar syndromes with permanent occlusion of major vessels, peripheral and central, and other similar noxious procedures that severely disable endothelium function, the stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157-collateral pathways activation, was a resolving therapy. (bvsalud.org)
  • BPC 157 therapy (10 µg, 10 ng/kg given intragastrically at 5 min or 90 min sotalol-time) effectively counteracted sotalol-occlusion/occlusion-like syndrome. (bvsalud.org)
  • Basilar artery thrombosis can present with progressive neurologic deficits and can result in tetra paresis, coma, or locked-in syndrome. (abcmedicalnotes.com)
  • Accordingly, it is appropriate to consider domestic violence when evaluating a patient for alcohol intoxication or drug toxicity and overdose. (medscape.com)
  • As in all the described occlusion/occlusion-like syndromes with permanent occlusion of major vessels, peripheral and central, and other similar noxious procedures that severely affect endothelium function, the stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 was resolving therapy. (bvsalud.org)
  • In addition to adverse effects experienced by cocaine users, body packers-people who swallow bags of cocaine in order to smuggle the drug from one country to another-may experience acute toxicity if any of the bags rupture. (medscape.com)

  • Although the total dosage of ICG during the continuous injection was high, the enhancement of retinal burn and choriocapillary occlusion was small. (uni-luebeck.de)
  • At 5 min post-perforation time, rats received therapy [BPC 157 (10 µg or 10 ng/kg) or saline (5 mL/kg, 1 mL/rat) (controls)] into the perforated defect in the stomach). (bvsalud.org)
