Summary Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effect of topical rifamycin SV treatment against sternal infection (SWI) in diabetic patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Methods One hundred and fifty-nine diabetic patients who were scheduled to undergo isolated on-pump CABG surgery were included. Eight were excluded for various reasons. Of the 151 patients, 51 were on insulin therapy and 100 were on oral anti-diabetics. The risk of mediastinitis was assessed using the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association 2004 guideline update for CABG surgery. According to the risk scores, patients were divided into two comparable groups: the rifamycin group (n = 78) received topical rifamycin treatment after on-pump CABG surgery, and the control group (n = 73) received no topical treatment.

What is impotence / erectile dysfunction-problem / erectile dysfunction, why does it happen?
by clinicby clinicErectile Dysfunction can be defined as the inability to achieve and/or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity. It is estimated that as many as 100 million men worldwide suffer from ED. However, more than 85% of men with ED do not seek treatment. Causes include false assumptions that ED is a normal consequence of aging and that there is no cure. The truth is that the likelihood of ED increases with age, as the prevalence of underlying conditions associated with ED increases with age.
