Randomized prospective controlled trial of recombinant granulocyte colony-stimulating factor as adjunctive therapy for limb-threatening diabetic foot infection. D. A comparative study of polyantibiotic and iodophor ointments in prevention of vascular catheter-related infection. A systematic review for effective management of central venous catheters and catheter sites in acute care paediatric patients. Prevention of central venous catheter associated thrombosis using minidose warfarin in patients with haematological malignancies. R. Hypertrophy and hyperplasia during goitre growth and involution in rats--separate bioeffects of TSH and iodine.

C. Pilot trial to compare tolerance of chlorhexidine gluconate to povidone-iodine antisepsis for central venous catheter placement in neonates. The C–I bond is the weakest of all the carbon–halogen bonds due to the minuscule difference in electronegativity between carbon (2.J.

The "hands-off" catheter and the prevention of systemic infections associated with pulmonary artery catheter: a prospective study.

Iodine has an electron configuration of [Kr]4d 105s 25p 5, with the seven electrons in the fifth and outermost shell being its valence electrons.Also, people with autoimmune thyroid disease might be especially sensitive to the harmful effects of iodine. Gay-Lussac suggested the name "iode", from the Ancient Greek ἰοειδής ( ioeidēs, "violet"), because of the colour of iodine vapor. Vaginal preparation with antiseptic solution before cesarean section for preventing postoperative infections. Do not take more than 1100 mcg of iodine daily if you are over 18 years old; do not take more than 900 mcg of iodine daily if you are 14-18 years old.

The primary risk from exposure to high levels of iodine-131 is the chance occurrence of radiogenic thyroid cancer in later life. At room temperature, it is a colourless gas, like all of the hydrogen halides except hydrogen fluoride, since hydrogen cannot form strong hydrogen bonds to the large and only mildly electronegative iodine atom. Improvement of microcirculation and healing of venous hypertension and ulcers with Crystacide Evaluation of free radicals, laser Doppler flux and PO2 A prospective randomized controlled study. Results of the administration of potassium iodate, potassium iodide and placebo on endemic goitre and iodine bound to protein in groups of school children [Resultados de la administracion de yodato de potasio, yoduro de potasio y placebos sobre el bocio endemico y sobre los niveles de yodo ligado a la proteina entre grupos de escolares].g. potassium and calcium) are the greatest among ionic halides of that element, while those of covalent iodides (e.
