- Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) occur when germs enter the bloodstream through a central line. A central line is a tube that is placed in a large vein to give fluids, blood, or medications, or to do certain medical tests quickly.Back to top of page. Back to top of page. According to the latest CDC National and State HAI Progress Report, in 2013, acute care hospitals experienced a 46% reduction in hospital-onset central line-associated bloodstream infections compared to 2008.

What is Chyle? Lymphatic fluid begins in the circulatory system. Chyle is transported through the lymphatic system and eventually drains into the thoracic duct, a large lymphatic vessel found on the left side of the torso. This fluid is associated with a condition called chyle fistula, in which lymphatic fluid leaks from the lymphatic vessels.

Campylobacteriosis Campylobacteriosis is an infection by the Campylobacter bacterium, most commonly C. jejuni. It is among the most common bacterial infections of humans, often a foodborne illness. It produces an inflammatory, sometimes bloody, diarrhea or dysentery syndrome, mostly including cramps, fever and pain.ampylobacter bacteria are the number-one cause of food-related gastrointestinal illness in the United States. This scanning electron microscope image shows the characteristic spiral, or corkscrew, shape of C. jejuni cells and related structures.

Urachus The urachus is a fibrous remnant of the allantois, a canal that drains the urinary bladder of the fetus that joins and runs within the umbilical cord.The fibrous remnant lies in the space of Retzius, between the transversalis fascia anteriorly and the peritoneum posteriorly.he vesico-urethral portion of the urogenital sinus absorbs the ends of the Wolffian ducts and the associated ends of the renal diverticula, and these give rise to the trigone of the bladder and part of the prostatic urethra.

Thoracic duct and cisterna chyli: evaluation with multidetector row CT Anatomical considerations. The cisterna chyli is the abdominal origin of the thoracic duct, and it receives the bilateral lumbar lymphatic trunks. It is located in the retrocrural space, to the right side and behind of the abdominal aorta.esults. Visualisation of the thoracic duct and cisterna chyli was almost 100% on axial and coronal images. The lower section of the thoracic duct was most clearly visualised among the three sections. There was little difference in the maximum size of the thoracic duct among the three sections.

What is the function of the Golgi apparatus? One of the most important functions of the Golgi apparatus is the formation of lysosomes (single membrane bounded organelles containing hydrolytic enzymes). The Golgi is made of stacks of membrane bound bodies known as the cisternae. In plant cells, these stacks are usually found as individuals, called dictyosomes. In one plant stack, there are about 4 to 8 cisternae and in the animal cell 40 to 100 per stack.

Muscular layer In the ureter the smooth muscle orientation is opposite that of the GI tract. There is an inner longitudinal and an outer circular layer. The inner layer of the muscularis externa forms a sphincter at two locations of the gastrointestinal tract: 1  in the pylorus of the stomach, it forms the pyloric sphincter. 2  in the anal canal, it forms the internal anal sphincter.

Clinical Anatomy of the Uterus, Fallopian Tubes, and Ovaries Lymphatic drainage of the uterus and upper two-thirds of the vagina is primarily to the obturator and internal and external iliac nodes. The fallopian tubes are bilateral muscular structures of paramesonephric duct origin. They are from 7 to 12 cm in length and usually less than 1 cm in diameter. The tubes or oviducts have a lumen that varies considerably in diameter.

Clinical Anatomy of the Uterus, Fallopian Tubes, and Ovaries The uterus varies considerably in size, shape and weight depending on the status of parturition and estrogenic stimulation. The uterus is a fibromuscular organ that can be divided into the upper muscular uterine corpus and the lower fibrous cervix, which extends into the vagina. The upper part of the uterus above the insertion of the fallopian tubes is called the fundus. The narrow portion situated between corpus and cervix is known as the isthmus and lies approximately at the level of the course of the uterine artery and the internal os of the cervix.

What is the Difference Between a Well and a Cistern? Wells and cisterns both provide water, but they do it in different ways. A cistern is a container which is used for the purpose of storing water; cisterns can be found in various sizes all over the world, both above and below ground. A well, on the other hand, taps into a supply of groundwater, such as a spring or underground stream.

Chylothorax A chylothorax is a type of pleural effusion. It results from lymph formed in the digestive system called chyle accumulating in the pleural cavity due to either disruption or obstruction of the thoracic duct. In people on a normal diet, this effusion can be identified by its turbid, milky white appearance, since chyle contains high levels of triglycerides. It is important to distinguish chylothorax from pseudochylothorax, which has a similar appearance, but is caused by more chronic inflammatory

Definitions &Translations Also known as chymus, it is the liquid substance found in the stomach before passing through the pyloric valve and entering the duodenum. It results from the mechanical and chemical breakdown of a bolus and consists of partially digested food, water, hydrochloric acid, and various digestive enzymes. Chyme slowly passes through the pyloric sphincter and into the duodenum, where the extraction of nutrients begins.

Cisterna chyli It is the most common drainage trunk of most of the body's lymphatics. The cisterna chyli is a retro-peritoneal structure, located posterior to the abdominal aorta on the anterior aspect of the bodies of the first and second lumbar vertebrae (L1 and L2).
