“…Among them, intravesical pressure measurement is the generally accepted method in the diagnosis. Two previous studies clearly showed that health practitioners were inadequate in measuring and interpreting IAP in the diagnosis of IAH and ACS (13,14). More practical and easily interpretable methods are essential for detecting IAH before it progresses to ACS.…”

In this study, the effects of organic silicon (Si) on the toxicity of imidacloprid to a new invasive mealybug, Phenacoccus solenopsis (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), infesting Portulaca grandiflora (Caryophyllales: Portulacaceae) plants were evaluated using spotting and dipping methods under laboratory and field conditions to improve management strategies for solenopsis mealybug. Results showed significant synergistic effects of 0.06% organic Si with imidacloprid solution against third-instar P. solenopsis nymphs and adult females. However, the percentage mortalities increased remarkably after P. solenopsis was exposed to 100, 50, and 25 mg a.i./L of imidacloprid combined with organic Si. For the third-instar nymphs, these values increased to 100%, 100%, and 92.5%, respectively; for the adult females, these values increased to 100%, 100%, and 82.4%, respectively. After 5 days, the percentage mortalities reached 84.7%, 56.1%, and 39.7% when the third-instar nymphs were exposed to 100, 50, and 25 mg a.i./L of imidacloprid solution, respectively. The percentage mortalities reached 57.5%, 38.9%, and 26.2% when adult females were exposed to the same imidacloprid solutions, respectively. Organic Si alone elicited toxicity to P. solenopsis. The percentage mortalities of the first-, second-, and third-instar nymphs and the adult females were 76.9%, 47.5%, 39.2%, and 18.9%, respectively. Field data showed that imidacloprid combined with organic Si caused sustainable control of P. solenopsis. The percentage mortalities of P. solenopsis reached maximum values (approximately 99.9%) after 21 days. Thus, the combined treatment with imidacloprid and organic Si is synergistically more effective than the individual use of these substances against third-instar P. solenopsis nymphs and adult females.

“…In fact, the reported ESD perforation rate is 7% for cases involving the esophagus, 4% for cases involving the stomach, and 5% for cases involving the colorectum [10,14,15]. Perforation can cause peritonitis and mediastinitis, and possibly also thromboembolism due to blood flow congestion (compartment syndrome) when significant pneumatic leakage results in excess internal pressure [19][20][21][22][23][24]. It is anticipated that such associated problems will be minimized by further use of CO 2 insufflation.…”

Abdominal compartment syndrome is defined as sustained intra-abdominal pressure greater than 20 mm Hg (with or without abdominal perfusion pressure <60 mm Hg) associated with new organ failure or dysfunction. The syndrome is associated with 90% to 100% mortality if not recognized and treated in a timely manner. Nurses are responsible for accurately measuring intra-abdominal pressure in children with abdominal compartment syndrome and for alerting physicians about important changes. This article provides relevant definitions, outlines risk factors for abdominal compartment syndrome developing in children, and discusses an instructive case involving an adolescent with abdominal compartment syndrome. Techniques for measuring intra-abdominal pressure, normal ranges, and the importance of monitoring in the critical care setting for timely identification of intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome also are discussed.
