1.	Hemorrhage 11/01/1995 - "Injection treatment has the best indication for I and II degree bleeding piles, the rubber band ligation for II and III degree piles; this procedure is very effective when associated to cryosurgery. " 01/01/1990 - "Control of hemorrhage should be the aim of treatment, best achieved by alternative treatment, such as hepatic artery ligation of angiographic embolization, highly effective in our experience. " 06/01/1982 - "They also point out the main diagnostic and therapeutic aspects emphasizing the small effect that ligation of the external carotid artery has on bleeding and the importance of choosing case by case the best treatment considering the great variety of clinical and pathologic aspects that characterize these lesions." 09/01/1981 - "Although the treatment of choice for extracranial, congenital and traumatic, AVMs is ideally total excision, careful embolization of the nidus with ligation of the feeders seems to be the most opportune procedure of choice as the second-best treatment in cases in which the nidus of the AVM occupies extensive areas of the head or face and which have little chance of developing serious signs and symptoms such as massive hemorrhage." 09/01/1979 - " Although bilateral ligation is not the answer to all problems of bleeding from the uterus, it is superior to most other procedures, and physicians providing obstetric care should be familiar with the technique.

2.	Varicose Veins (Varicose Vein) 07/01/2005 - "On the other hand, sclerotherapy is not indicated for patients with large varices, while ligature competes with pharmacologic treatment, some people suggesting the superiority of ligature because of better patient compliance, although probably the best option would be a combination of both. " 02/01/2012 - "Until recent years, the gold standard for treatment of truncal varicose veins has been high ligation and stripping of the saphenous vein. " 03/01/2000 - "A synchronous combination of band ligation and sclerotherapy has not been shown to improve the results of band ligation alone, but a metachronous approach using sclerotherapy to treat recurrent varices after band ligation has shown beneficial results. " 12/01/1995 - "Following the proposed selection criteria, these two alternative procedures seem to be more effective in varices treatment than high ligation and have the advantage of preserving saphenous veins suitable for eventual by-pass surgery." 09/01/1980 - "In comparison with our previous prospective studies, emergency portacaval shunt produced a significantly greater long-term survival rate than either emergency medical therapy or emergency varix ligation, followed by elective shunt.

3.	Esophageal and Gastric Varices (Esophageal Varices) 02/01/2002 - "Endoscopic variceal ligation is highly effective in obliterating esophageal varices in children. " 09/01/1999 - "This study was conducted to determine whether prophylactic banding ligation is beneficial for cirrhotic patients with high-risk esophageal varices. " 04/01/1997 - "(i) Endoscopic sclerotherapy and endoscopic variceal ligation were equally effective in controlling acute bleed; (ii) endoscopic ligation achieved variceal obliteration faster and in fewer treatment sessions; (iii) endoscopic variceal ligation had a significantly lower rate of development of portal gastropathy and rebleeding, (iv) while both techniques influenced gastric varices equally, there was significantly higher esophageal variceal recurrence after endoscopic variceal ligation than sclerotherapy." 01/01/1997 - "Endoscopic variceal ligation is superior to combined ligation and sclerotherapy for esophageal varices: a multicenter prospective randomized trial." 03/01/2001 - "Our results indicate that endoscopic ligation of esophageal varices combined with APC is superior to ligation alone.

4.	Sepsis (Septicemia) 11/01/2012 - "We recently reported that adoptive transfer of bone marrow CD34(+) cells into mice after sepsis induction by cecal ligation and puncture significantly improves late-sepsis survival by enhancing bacterial clearance through improved neutrophil and macrophage phagocytosis. " 01/01/2012 - "Using the ED50 of Gu-4, we also demonstrated that Gu-4 treatment significantly improved the survival rate of animals underwent sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture. " 03/15/2006 - "PPT-A gene deletion significantly protected against mortality, delayed the onset of lethality, and improved the long-term survival following cecal ligation and puncture-induced sepsis. " 01/01/2006 - "In the mouse and rat models of sepsis (cecal ligation and puncture, CLP), C5a blockade by anti-C5a antibody, anti-C5aR antibody or use of a C5aR antagonist (C5aRa) significantly improved survival in CLP animals. " 04/29/2005 - "These data suggest that novel EPCR ligation and S1P1 transactivation results in EC cytoskeletal rearrangement and barrier protection, components potentially critical to the improved survival of APC-treated patients with severe sepsis."

5.	Hemorrhoids 08/01/1979 - "Elastic ligature of internal hemorrhoid nodules was done ambulatorily with good results and no important complications. " 02/01/2011 - "Doppler-guided hemorrhoidal artery ligation is a minimally invasive technique for the treatment of symptomatic hemorrhoids that has been applied successfully for grade II and III hemorrhoids but is less effective for grade IV hemorrhoids. " 01/01/2008 - "Suture ligation and mucopexy of hemorrhoids is an easy-to-perform technique that is well accepted by patients and has good results for prolapsing hemorrhoids." 02/01/2005 - "Doppler-guided hemorrhoid artery ligation is an easy-to-perform technique that is well accepted by patients and has good results for grade III hemorrhoids." 12/01/2002 - "Endoscopic hemorrhoidal ligation is a safe and effective technique indicated for the treatment of grade 1 to 3 hemorrhoids, with a high success and low complication rate.
