Are medial posterior meniscal root tears associated with development or worsening of medial tibiofemoral cartilage damage : the multicenter osteoarthritis study?
Isolated medial posterior meniscal root tear is associated with incident and progressive medial tibiofemoral cartilage loss.
Remote preconditioning using IOA protects the rat heart from infarction. Classical and remote PC share both the delta1-opioid-receptor and free radicals as common elements in their signal transduction pathways. MPG can block protection from IOA and from one, but not from three, classical preconditioning cycles. This indicates that the protection by remote preconditioning is comparable to classical PC with one I/R cycle.
