One spoonful of black-rice bran -- or 10 spoonfuls of cooked black rice -- contains the same amount of anthocyanin as a spoonful of fresh blueberries, according to a new study presented today at the American Chemical Society, in Boston.
Acute compartment syndrome occurs when the tissue pressure within a closed muscle compartment exceeds the perfusion pressure and results in muscle and nerve ischemia. It typically occurs subsequent to a traumatic event, most commonly a fracture.
A break in a bone (a fracture) is probably the most common injury that can lead to compartment syndrome-typically, a fracture of the arm or leg. Compartment syndrome can also occur due to: 1  Vigorous exercise. 2  Penetrating injury such as stabbings or gunshot wounds. 3  Crush injury. 4  Burns.
