Reperfusion injury cannot be completely prevented, but its severity may be reduced through:

1. Controlled reperfusion – Gradual restoration of blood flow with adjustments in pressure, oxygen, calcium, and pH to limit cellular injury.

2. Ischemic preconditioning – Brief episodes of ischemia before a prolonged insult, activating endogenous protective pathways.

3. Pharmacologic therapies – Antioxidants (e.g., vitamin C, N-acetylcysteine), calcium channel blockers (e.g., verapamil), sodium–hydrogen exchange inhibitors (e.g., cariporide), and anti-inflammatory agents may reduce oxidative stress, calcium overload, and inflammation.

4. Hypothermia – Tissue cooling lowers metabolic demand and attenuates reperfusion-related damage.

5. Ischemic postconditioning – Brief interruptions of blood flow at the onset of reperfusion to reduce oxidative and inflammatory injury.

In practice, controlled reperfusion and hypothermia are the most established strategies, while many pharmacologic approaches remain investigational.

The first shock of my life as a Nigerian while growing up was when I went to some of my friends’ houses and I discovered that they used to thank their parents after eating.

I should trust my intuition more , I know when a venture will be useless

[Ben @IbabaMD]

I noticed this too
I have learnt not to negotiate
I do what I am supposed to then go

[Nelson Mogaka @NelsonMogaka_]

Observation: patients trust nurses more, but still blame doctors more. Make it make sense.

What is the name of this clinical test?

What does a positive test mean?

Finished the book it was a nice read

So this Dr , a neurosurgery resident is caught up in the wrong crowd basically operating on gang members. Now the Boss has a brain haemorrhage and is at the hospital she is resident at . The gang said if the Boss does her family will be wiped out cause she is the lead surgeon

Reading a book about 3 medical residents in the US . Can’t help but notice some inconsistencies .

The book has moved forward 4 years and one of the residents in internal medicine is still in residency and worse still is making mistakes with dosing of medication

Ionno about operating under those conditions.
There is no getting out of the situation tho . She is knee deep

@AnotherCFCFan Oh unity is an illusion that must battle the innate desire of humans to be better than others

Saying “Affs” is mad work

[Rektmeedy @rektmeedy]

Why do affs get shocked when they find out people from the US and Caribbean don’t like Afrobeats lol

[Ben @IbabaMD]

@elaunireMD That’s a great idea

[Ben @IbabaMD]

How can you popularise Mental health in Nigeria? By this I mean taking therapy seriously. I meet people that seem like they can benefit from it.

People want to talk , not just to psychiatrists. How do we undo this stigma.

[Ben @IbabaMD]

@AnotherCFCFan Funny af , definitely sure it’s used as a slur in that context
