PID5: MEDICO-ECONOMIC MODELLING OF INFLUENZA MANAGEMENT IN EUROPE: METHODOLOGY USED IN FRANCE AND GERMANY
Management of diabetic neuropathic foot and ankle malunions and nonunions
The management of diabetic neuropathic foot and ankle malunions and/or nonunions is often complicated by the presence of broken or loosened hardware, Charcot joints, infection, osteomyelitis, avascular bone necrosis, unstable deformities, bone loss, disuse and pathologic osteopenia, and ulcerations. The author discusses a rational approach to functional limb salvage with various surgical techniques that are aimed at achieving anatomic alignment, long-term osseous stability, and adequate soft tissue coverage. Emphasis is placed on techniques to overcome the inherent challenges that are encountered when surgically managing a diabetic nonunion and/or malunion. Particular attention is directed to the management of deep infection and Charcot neuroarthropathy in the majority of the cases presented
A Phase II Study of Docetaxel and Epirubicin in Advanced Adult Soft Tissue Sarcomas (STS)
Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of docetaxel plus epirubicin combination as first-line
chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced and/or metastatic adult STS
Exhaled nitric oxide and clinical phenotypes of childhood asthma
Whether exhaled NO helps to identify a specific phenotype of asthmatic patients remains debated. Our aims were to evaluate whether exhaled NO (FENO0.05) is independently associated (1) with underlying pathophysiological characteristics of asthma such as airway tone (bronchodilator response) and airway inflammation (inhaled corticosteroid [ICS]-dependant inflammation), and (2) with clinical phenotypes of asthma
