This randomized controlled trial assessed the non-inferiority of administering parenteral nutrition (PN) without added heparin (0.5 IU/mL) versus PN with heparin in reducing peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) intraluminal obstruction in preterm neonates. The study concluded that PN without heparin was non-inferior to the addition of heparin on reducing catheter obstruction.
A foundational resource detailing the therapeutic techniques and underlying clinical principles essential for the assessment and treatment of common musculoskeletal injuries and post-surgical rehabilitation.
A detailed study of the musculoskeletal system, covering bones, joints, soft tissues, the axial and appendicular skeletons, bone growth and repair, and the structure and function of muscle cells and tissues.
This book, part of the 'Challenging Cases in' series, presents complex case studies in Palliative Care, complete with expert commentary from consultants and senior lecturers in the field.

Description
Oesophagogastric Surgery meets the needs of surgeons...
This book is structured as an educational entertainment rather than a traditional textbook, presenting 50 real clinical case studies in neuro-ophthalmology. Designed for neurologists and ophthalmologists, each case follows a realistic scenario detailing history, examination, investigations, and a summary of important points regarding pathogenesis and treatment.
A comprehensive textbook covering fundamental concepts in general chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry, suitable for pre-medical and health science students.
A comprehensive guide analyzing running technique, human anatomy, mechanics of movement, and injury prevention. Includes detailed sections on common running injuries, dynamic stretches, drills, recovery methods, strength exercises, and structured training programmes.
This case report details the successful management of a 2-day-old neonate who suffered extensive gastric perforation, likely from suspected barotrauma, requiring total gastrectomy and pouchless Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy reconstruction. The report highlights the high morbidity of this condition and confirms the adequacy of the surgical technique and multidisciplinary care, noting the patient maintained an adequate nutritional status 2.9 years postoperatively.
This book focuses on the biomedical application of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in dentistry, covering topics from dental materials to clinical practice. It provides an overview of the method and its use in cariology, restorative dentistry, endodontics, pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, prosthodontics, soft oral tissues, and nanodentistry.
This book covers basic scientific and clinically relevant aspects of dental composites for direct restorations. It is divided into eight parts and 19 chapters covering topics such as development, composition, curing reactions, monomer conversion, the importance of the dental curing light, properties of current materials, classification criteria, esthetic appearance, and biological potential. Clinically relevant aspects include bonding to tooth tissues, polymerization shrinkage stress, secondary caries, repair, and longevity of composite restorations.
