Application of Herbal Medicine and Oxygen Infusions into the Duodenal Lumen in Severe Acute Pancreatitis
Abstract: Background: Severe acute pancreatitis is associated with a high rate of complications and significant mortality. Although surgical intervention has been widely introduced instead of open surgery in treating severe acute pancreatitis, there have been still complications and mortality associated with severe acute pancreatitis. Object: Our study aimed at reducing complications and mortality associated with severe acute pancreatitis. Methods: Herbal medicine (Korean rhubarb) and oxygen infusions into the duodenal lumen combined …

Brain Abscess Originating From Odontogenic Infection: Rare But Life Threatening Sequelae of Dental Origin
Abstract: Archeological excavations have revealed that the cause of the several deaths of the pharaohs of Egypt was brain abscess originating from foci of dental infection. Effective drug treatment and medical regimens for the treatment of brain abscess were unavailable, until the age of modern antibiotics and advanced surgical techniques. Infective process of any origination in the brain may lead to a suppurative abscess that walls itself off (i.e., encapsulates preventing …

Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC): A Devastating Neonatal Gastrointestinal Disorder
Abstract: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) represents a formidable challenge in neonatal medicine, particularly afflicting premature infants with its characteristic features of severe intestinal inflammation and necrosis. Despite advancements in neonatal care, NEC continues to exact a heavy toll, standing as a prominent cause of morbidity and mortality in this vulnerable population. Its multifaceted etiology, encompassing prematurity, enteral feeding practices, alterations in microbial colonization, and episodes of intestinal ischemia, underscores the complexity of …

Understanding Programmed Cell Death
Abstract: Recent studies emphasize the critical role of various types of programmed cell death (PCD) such as apoptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, and necroptosis, as well as their respective signaling pathways. These processes are essential for regulating cellular balance, responding to stress, and triggering immune defenses. Apoptosis, commonly known as "cellular suicide," is a tightly controlled mechanism that allows cells to die without inducing inflammation. This process is key for tissue development, immune …
